Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of wind tunnel testing, and in particular to a wind tunnel cloud and fog uniformity detection device. Background Art
[0002] Under ideal conditions, water droplets in the icing wind tunnel and rain wind tunnel should be evenly distributed in the horizontal and vertical directions of the wind tunnel test section. However, due to the influence of airflow and nozzle installation position, the droplet distribution in the cross section of the test section may change.
[0003] The uniformity assessment of the cloud can timely adjust the nozzle working configuration and determine the number of nozzles working, thereby improving the uniformity range of the cloud in the test, reducing the difference in droplet distribution in the cross section of the test section, and improving the validity of the test conclusions.
[0004] The existing ice wind tunnel uniformity test uses a grid device to spray at low temperature and evaluates the cloud uniformity by measuring the thickness of ice on the grid surface. The main problems of this method are:
[0005] 1. The test must be carried out in a refrigerated wind tunnel. For a rain wind tunnel, the working temperature is above 0°C, so this method cannot be used to evaluate the uniformity of clouds and fog.
[0006] 2. During the measurement process, uneven ice density caused by melting of accumulated ice, clear ice / frost ice will also cause measurement errors;
[0007] 3. The refrigeration process is time-consuming and power-consuming, and the measurement electricity and labor costs are high. Summary of the invention

[0011] A bracket, used for installation in a wind tunnel test section, the bracket being provided with a plurality of water collecting pipes, the length direction of the water collecting pipes being parallel to the length direction of the wind tunnel test section;

[0014] Optionally, the inner wall of the windward end of the water collecting pipeline is a conical structure, and the large-diameter end of the conical structure is the windward end.
[0015] Optionally, the bracket is a grille bracket, and a water collection channel is provided at the grid intersection of the grille bracket. The length direction of the water collection channel is parallel to the length direction of the wind tunnel test section, and the water collection channel runs through the windward side and the leeward side of the grille bracket, and the water collection channel serves as the water collection pipeline.
[0016] Optionally, a water collection channel is provided at each grid intersection of the grid support.

[0031] An embodiment of the present application provides a wind tunnel cloud and fog uniformity detection device.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a wind tunnel cloud and fog uniformity detection device comprises: a bracket for installation in a wind tunnel test section, the bracket is provided with a plurality of water collecting pipes 2, the length direction of the water collecting pipes 2 is parallel to the length direction of the wind tunnel test section; a plurality of water collectors 3 are installed on the leeward side of the bracket, the water collectors 3 correspond to the water collecting pipes 2 one by one, the inlet of the water collector 3 is connected to the leeward end of the water collecting pipe 2, and the droplets in the wind tunnel test section enter the water collector 3 after passing through the water collecting pipe 2; a detection component is installed in the water collector 3, and is used to detect the amount of water in the water collector 3.
[0033] During measurement, the liquid enters the water collector 3 through the water collection pipeline 2, and the detection component outputs the water volume in the water collector 3. By comparing the water volume data output by the detection component, the uniformity of the cloud and fog can be evaluated, and the water content of the test section can be calculated.
[0034] The inner wall of the windward end of the water collecting pipe 2 is a conical structure, and the large diameter end of the conical structure is the windward end. Increasing the number of droplets collected by the water collecting pipe 2 can reduce detection errors.
[0035] The support is a grille support 1, and the grilles include a number of cross bars and vertical bars that are crossed and arranged together. The grid intersections of the grille support 1 are provided with water collection channels. The length direction of the water collection channel is parallel to the length direction of the wind tunnel test section, and the water collection channel runs through the windward side and the leeward side of the grille support 1. The water collection channel serves as the water collection pipeline 2.
[0036] A water collection channel is provided at each grid intersection of the grid support 1. As many water collection channels as possible are arranged to reduce detection errors.
[0037] The outer edge profile of the grid support 1 is the same as the cross section of the wind tunnel test section. The grid support 1 is made to cover the cross section of the entire wind tunnel test section as much as possible to ensure that water mobile phone channels can be arranged at all positions of the wind tunnel test section.
[0038] The detection component is a liquid level sensor 4, which is used to detect the liquid level in the water collector 3. The data of the liquid level sensor 4 is connected to the data recorder through the cable 5. The liquid level in the water collector 3 reflects the amount of water in the water collector 3, and the liquid level signal is processed into a digital signal using the liquid level sensor 4 and the data recorder.

Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
