Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of super / hypersonic wind tunnel testing, and in particular relates to a shock wave inducer and a method. Background Art

[0002] Shock waves and their interference phenomena are widely present in the internal and external flow fields of super / hypersonic aircraft. Among them, the interference between shock waves and boundary layers has continued to attract scholars for more than half a century and is still a hot research direction. The results in this field have provided important theoretical and technical support for the innovative development of aerospace vehicles.

[0003] High-speed aircraft will inevitably induce shock wave structures during the flight process exceeding the speed of sound, and the interference between shock waves and components will cause more complex flow fields, bringing severe challenges to the field of high-speed aircraft aerodynamics. The shock wave interference flow field structure includes characteristics such as incident shock waves, reflected shock waves, expansion waves and separation shock waves. Deepening the understanding of the mechanism of such flow field structures plays an important role in guiding the design optimization of aircraft. In ground wind tunnel tests, one of the basic conditions for the study of shock waves and interference phenomena is the shock wave inducer, which can be designed according to the conditions such as the Mach number of the study. The traditional design method is partly a fixed-angle compression wedge, which needs to be reloaded when the angle is changed; the other part is a compression plate that rotates at a small angle, but the shock wave incident position is difficult to control. In addition, pressure measurement is one of the indispensable technical means in the field of shock wave and boundary layer interference research. The current technical capabilities can achieve high-frequency dynamic acquisition at the megahertz level, but the spatial resolution is usually insufficient; and when the spatial resolution is at the 1mm level, the acquisition frequency is limited to the kilohertz level. Therefore, the biggest problem with current pressure measurement technology is the contradiction between time resolution and spatial resolution. In the future, the requirements for pressure data in the field of shock wave and boundary layer interference experimental research will become increasingly higher. Therefore, it is very necessary to design a new type of shock wave inducer that has the ability to collect pressure with both high time resolution and spatial resolution. Summary of the invention

[0016] Preferably, the number of the guide rails is two.

[0017] Preferably, the support column is fixedly connected to the base.

[0018] Preferably, the support column can be moved up and down by adjusting the connection position with the base, so as to continuously adjust the starting height of the induced shock wave.

[0019] Preferably, a pressure sensor is provided on the sliding plate to dynamically measure the pressure along the shock wave interference flow field.

[0020] In the present invention, the first stepper motor drives the rotating wedge to deflect, so that the induced shock wave intensity can be dynamically and continuously adjusted; the second stepper motor drives the sliding plate to move, so that the induced shock wave incident position can be dynamically and continuously adjusted.

[0021] The two stepper motors in the present invention respectively drive the deflection of the rotating wedge and the movement of the flat plate, so that the induced shock wave intensity and the incident position can be continuously adjusted, thereby realizing high temporal and spatial resolution measurement of the pressure field.

[0026] Step 4: At the beginning of the test, the rotating wedge and the sliding plate move synchronously and coordinately to create the flow field required for the test.

[0027] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

Through the coordinated control of the shock wave intensity and the incident position, the problem that the traditional shock wave inducer cannot continuously adjust the shock wave intensity and the incident position is solved. It also solves the contradictory problem that the time resolution and spatial resolution of pressure measurement cannot be improved at the same time, making the measurement of shock wave and boundary layer interference flow field more efficient and reliable.
