Investigation of the annular nozzle start in actual and virtual intermittent aerodynamic setups

详细

The results of a numerical and experimental investigation of the starting of jet-engine annular nozzle blown with the air at room temperature and high-temperature combustion products of a stoichiometric acetylene-air mixture in an intermittent aerodynamic setup are presented. The regimes and the times of the attainment of quasi-steady stAte of the flow are studied in the virtual full-scale counterpart of the experimental setup. The special features of the starting stage and the quasi-steady flow are studied for entry channels of different shapes. The values of starting times, the pressures at different points of the flow duct, and the thrusts produced by the annular nozzle measured in the physical experiment and obtained in the virtual experimental setup are compared.
