Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of hypersonic vehicle design, and particularly relates to a design method for a forebody and an inlet thermal experiment model of a high-speed wind tunnel. Background Art
[0002] When a hypersonic vehicle changes from the cruise state to the return state, its speed will decrease from hypersonic (Ma > 5) to supersonic (1.2 < Ma < 5). In the supersonic stage, the flight speed of the hypersonic vehicle is lower than the cruise speed, and no obvious aerodynamic heating phenomenon will occur. However, during the cruise stage, the heat accumulated on the wall of the hypersonic vehicle has not been radiated out in time. The wall heat still has a significant impact on key flow phenomena such as aerodynamic heat transfer, flow separation, and shock wave / boundary layer interference. Therefore, studying the wall heat in the supersonic stage is crucial for optimizing the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle and reducing load design.
[0003] In 2011, Hirschel E H et al. published "Design of hypersonic flight vehicles: some lessons from the past and future challenges", which proposed a thermal experiment technique (Hot Experimental Technique, HET). The thermal experiment technique is a method of heating the model to a high temperature (about 1000K) similar to hypersonic conditions before the wind tunnel starts running. The thermal experiment technique can reproduce the model temperature representing hypersonic flight conditions, so as to achieve the wall-to-total temperature ratio of the real vehicle wall in a high-speed wind tunnel; it can also conduct experimental research on the influence of the wall heat environment generated in the hypersonic stage on the flow phenomena in the supersonic stage.
[0004] Common heating methods in thermal experiment techniques include external radiation heating, embedded resistance element heating, and variable cross-section carbon-carbon (C / C) heating element heating, etc. In 2013, "Hot-wall reentry testing in hypersonic impulse facilities" published by Zander et al. used a carbon-carbon (C / C) element sandwiched between two copper electrodes to generate a surface temperature of approximately 2000K. The heat conduction loss at the electrodes in this heating method cannot be ignored, which will lead to uneven temperature distribution. Resistance Joule heating is a representative method to achieve the temperature of the aircraft wall surface during simulated high-speed flight. In 2004, "Investigation of an intake injected hot wall scramje" published by Kovachevich et al. heated the intake wall surface to 500K by using an internal resistance wire to explore the influence of the intake wall surface temperature on ignition, and proved that heating the wall surface will significantly increase the temperature of the boundary layer within 1.4mm near the wall surface. In 2014, "A new method for prescribing non-uniform wall temperatures on wind tunnel models" published by Neely et al. formed a controllable temperature distribution on the element surface by changing the thickness of the reinforced carbon-carbon (RCC) material, and no significant deformation or stress occurred in the element. In 2021, "Hypersonic transition over a heated wall" published by Zhu et al. heated a cone model with a heating rod, and the highest temperature on the model surface was heated to 800K, with a surface temperature difference of 5K, and studied the transition process of the boundary layer on the heated wall surface; during the experiment, the wall surface temperature of the model was higher than T w / T 0 (where T w and T 0(which are the wall temperature and the total temperature respectively) can be controlled to vary between 0.66 and 1.77. In 2020, "Hopkins K J, etal. Electrically-heated flat plate testing in a free-piston driven shock tunnel" published by Chang et al. heated a rectangular graphite plate to a temperature above 800K and observed that the heated wall conditions had a significant impact on the growth of the boundary layer. In 2017, "Reproducing non-uniform surface temperature profiles on hypersonic cruise vehicles in impulsive wind tunnels" published by Vennik et al. conducted heated flat plate experiments in a wind tunnel and compared the boundary layer thicknesses under different temperature conditions of the unheated surface (290K), the uniformly heated surface (1025K), and the non-uniformly heated surface (675K to 1130K); the results showed that there were significant differences in the boundary layer thickness between the unheated and heated models. However, the differences between the uniformly and non-uniformly heated cases were difficult to distinguish and further exploration was needed; the study of the flat plate / compression ramp model showed that as the wall temperature decreased, the size of the separated bubble decreased significantly. In 2024, "Development of force measurement technique for preheated model in hypersonic combined test facility" published by Yang et al. heated a cone model to 435K in a hypersonic combined experimental facility integrating an arc jet and a shock tunnel and analyzed the different effects of ablation-induced shape changes and surface temperature on the drag coefficient.
[0005] It can be clearly seen from the above literature that the Joule heating model provides an effective means for simulating hypersonic wall temperature conditions in ground wind tunnel experiments. The Joule heating model has three characteristics: ① heating elements with high resistivity, such as ceramics, such as C / C, graphite, or C / SiC; ② flat plate model or flat plate / compression ramp model; ③ achieving uniform surface temperature or gradient temperature changes while maintaining a reasonable structure. However, in the current literature on the Joule heating model, there is a lack of detailed descriptions of the structural state of the Joule heating model under thermal loads (whether transient or steady-state conditions). Since it is necessary to ensure the reliability of the model, improve the fluid-thermal-structure interaction, and understand more details about the thermal stress generated by heating the model, the structural state is crucial for the design of the Joule heating model.

[0023] Thermal conductive silicone grease is applied to the contact surfaces of the heating rods and each heating plate with the forebody to reduce the contact thermal resistance; far-infrared heating plates are selected for the heating plates.
[0024] Further, the determination of the pressure measurement points and temperature measurement points in S30 includes the following content;
[0025] A number of pressure sensors along the oncoming flow direction are arranged on the center lines of the secondary compression surface and the shoulder, and heat insulation ceramic tubes are sleeved outside the pressure sensors for heat insulation;
[0026] A temperature measurement point is set at the midpoint of the two heating rods; several temperature measurement points are arranged in the wall surfaces of the compression surface and the shoulder corresponding to each heating plate; a set of thermocouples are respectively installed on each temperature measurement point, and the thermocouple wires of each thermocouple are arranged on the inner wall surface of the forebody; the embedding depths of the thermocouple probes of each group of thermocouples are different, realizing temperature measurement over the entire area and entire depth of the wall surfaces of the compression surface and the shoulder.
[0027] Further, the determination of the independent temperature control and regulation device in S40 includes the following content;
[0028] Independent temperature regulation devices with independent control are respectively arranged on the sharp leading edge and each heating plate; the independent temperature control and regulation device includes a set of thermocouples, a data acquisition system, a computer, and a temperature controller;
[0029] The data acquisition system and the temperature controller are respectively connected to the computer; the temperature controller is connected to the heating plate; each set of thermocouples includes 4 thermocouples, among which, 3 thermocouples are measurement thermocouples, which are respectively connected to the data acquisition system to respectively obtain the measurement signals at three different depths of the wall surfaces of the compression surface and the shoulder; 1 thermocouple is a feedback thermocouple, and the feedback thermocouple is close to the heating plate and is connected to the temperature controller;
[0030] The measuring thermocouple transmits the measurement signal to the data acquisition system to convert it into the measured point temperature value. The computer displays the measured point temperature value. The staff sets the target temperature value on the computer and sends the target temperature value to the temperature controller. The temperature controller performs PID control through the feedback thermocouple until the feedback thermocouple heats up to the target temperature value.
[0031] Further, the verification of the influence of the heat insulation groove in S50 on the temperature gradient distribution includes the following contents;
[0032] Set temperatures of 600K, 600K, 550K, 500K, 450K, and 400K on the 6 heating areas of the heating rods and heating plates corresponding to the sharp leading edge, the first compression surface, the second compression surface, and the shoulder respectively; through numerical simulation, obtain the temperature distribution comparison curves with and without the heat insulation groove. The comparison curves show that the temperature curve with the heat insulation groove is closer to the temperature gradient distribution in the ideal state, proving that the heat insulation groove realizes the temperature gradient distribution.
[0033] Further, the verification of the heat insulation effect of the heat insulation measures in S60 includes the following contents;
[0034] The heat insulation measures include a heat insulation groove and a heat insulation ceramic tube; perform constant temperature heating at 500K and 600K on the second compression surface and the shoulder respectively. The surface temperature of the model without the heat insulation groove reaches equilibrium at 32s, and the surface temperature of the model with the heat insulation groove reaches equilibrium at 97s. By comparison, it is found that the heat insulation groove reduces the temperature rise rate of the model surface by 67%; when performing constant temperature heating at 500K on the second compression surface and the shoulder, the temperature contour map on the cross-section where the pressure sensor is installed shows that after applying the heat insulation ceramic tube, the temperature of the pressure sensor is lower than the temperature of the surrounding wall surface, proving that the heat insulation ceramic tube provides the required thermal protection for the pressure sensor; perform constant temperature heating at 500K, 600K, and 650K on the second compression surface and the shoulder respectively. Under the uniform heating condition of 600K, at 63.5s, the surface temperature of the pressure sensor is 480K, reaching the working temperature limit of the pressure sensor, and the surface temperature of the model is 586.04K, and the change curve of the model surface temperature is gentle. Subsequently, the change of the model surface temperature is within the pre-specified stable interval range. In order to save the wind tunnel experiment time, it is determined that the wind tunnel startup time is before 63.5s; under the uniform heating condition of 500K, according to the working temperature limit of the pressure sensor being 480K, the estimated wind tunnel experiment time is 50s, meeting the requirements of the dynamic load wind tunnel experiment.
[0035] Further, the investigation of the model structure deformation caused by temperature in S70 includes the following contents;
[0036] The heating methods of the forebody of the high-speed wind tunnel and the hot experiment model of the intake duct include uniform heating and non-uniform gradient heating;
[0037] The heating temperatures for uniform heating include low-temperature heating and high-temperature heating. The heating temperatures for low-temperature heating are 300K, 350K, 400K, 450K, 500K, and 550K. The corresponding thermal experiment models for the forebody and inlet of the high-speed wind tunnel are low-temperature heating models. The heating temperatures for high-temperature heating are 600K, 700K, 800K, 900K, and 1000K. The corresponding thermal experiment models for the forebody and inlet of the high-speed wind tunnel are high-temperature heating models. Pressure sensors are not installed on the high-temperature heating models.
[0038] For the low-temperature heating model, affected by the positions of the heating rods and heating plates and the model thickness, the temperature at the sharp leading edge is the highest, the temperature around the pressure sensor is the lowest, and the thermal strain is concentrated at the shoulder position on the center line. When uniformly heated at 550K, the temperature difference on the center line is the largest, which is 8.2K. At the same time, the maximum deformation in the Y direction at the shoulder is 0.183mm.
[0039] For the high-temperature heating model, the part with the highest temperature is at the sharp leading edge, and the thermal strain is concentrated at the leading edge and shoulder positions of the model on the center line. When uniformly heated at 1000K, the temperature difference on the center line is the largest, which is 26.31K. At the same time, the maximum deformation in the Y direction at the shoulder is 0.195mm.
[0040] The temperature distribution on the center line of the low-temperature heating model and the high-temperature heating model is uniform. As the heating temperature increases, the temperature fluctuation on the center line becomes larger. The surface temperature difference increases with the increase of the heating temperature, and the ratio of the surface temperature difference to the heating temperature is within 3%. The deformation of the low-temperature heating model and the high-temperature heating model increases with the increase of the heating temperature. The maximum deformation of the low-temperature heating model occurs at the shoulder position, and the maximum deformation of the high-heating model occurs at the sharp leading edge and shoulder positions. The ratio of the deformation to the inlet height is within 2%.
[0041] There are 2 working conditions for non-uniform gradient heating. In working condition 1, according to the directions of the sharp leading edge, the first-stage compression surface, the second-stage compression surface, and the shoulder, the heating temperatures of the 6 heating regions are 600K, 600K, 550K, 500K, 450K, and 400K in sequence, realizing a gradual decrease in the wall temperature along the oncoming flow direction. The maximum deformation occurs at the first-stage compression surface, which is 0.169mm. In working condition 2, according to the directions of the sharp leading edge, the first-stage compression surface, the second-stage compression surface, and the shoulder, the heating temperatures are 600K, 600K, 600K, not heated, 400K, and 400K in sequence, realizing a step change in the wall temperature along the oncoming flow direction. The maximum deformation occurs at the first-stage compression surface, which is 0.181mm.
[0042] It is proved that a uniform temperature distribution and a gradient-varying temperature distribution are achieved on the surface of the thermal experiment models for the forebody and inlet of the high-speed wind tunnel, and it is feasible to simulate the surface temperature distribution of real aerodynamic heating using the built-in heating rods and heating plates.
[0043] Further, obtaining the relationship curve between heat flux density and surface temperature of S80 includes the following content;
[0044] The temperature control of the heating plate by the independent temperature control adjustment device is achieved by changing the heat flux density of the heating plate. It is necessary to obtain the relationship curve between heat flux density and surface temperature for controlling non-uniform gradient heating and providing data support for realizing the gradient change temperature distribution;
[0045] The heat flux density of the heating plate of the low-temperature heating model is less than that of the heating plate of the high-temperature heating model; the heat flux density range of the heating plate of the low-temperature heating model is 0 - 0.12 kW / m 2 , obtaining the fitting curve of heat flux density and temperature of the center line of the low-temperature heating model; the heat flux density range of the heating plate of the high-temperature heating model is 0.15 - 1.2 kW / m 2 , obtaining the fitting curve of heat flux density and temperature of the center line of the high-temperature heating model.
[0046] Further, studying the influence of the structural deformation of the research model on the flow field of S90 includes the following content;
[0047] Design a wind tunnel experiment model to study the influence of the model structural deformation generated by temperature on the aerodynamic load, and provide data support for determining the materials and wall thicknesses of the forebody and inlet duct thermal experiment models of the high-speed wind tunnel.
[0048] The design method of the forebody and inlet duct thermal experiment model of the high-speed wind tunnel of the present invention realizes the precise regulation of the uniform or gradient temperature distribution on the model surface in the range of 350K - 1000K by embedding multiple groups of heating units in the wall surfaces at the sharp leading edge, compression surface and shoulder positions to simulate the wall thermal environment of hypersonic aircraft; it proves that the forebody and inlet duct thermal experiment model of the high-speed wind tunnel has precise temperature control and heat insulation protection capabilities, and verifies the significant influence of wall temperature change on the flow field structure; at the same time, it proves that the forebody and inlet duct thermal experiment model of the high-speed wind tunnel can effectively reproduce the aerodynamic heat coupling effect; a hypersonic inlet duct thermal-fluid coupling experimental platform is established, which has engineering practical value.
