Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of aerodynamic flow measurement, and particularly relates to a device for measuring total pressure loss of supersonic internal flow field. BACKGROUND

[0002] Supersonic internal flow field widely exists in the inlet, isolator and combustion chamber of scramjet, and the flow thereof contains shock wave / shock wave interference, shock wave / boundary layer interference, shock wave / jet interference, expansion wave, shear layer and other features, and has strong non-uniformity. For the entire flow passage, the total pressure recovery coefficient of the inlet and the combustion chamber can reflect the thrust loss, and is an important index for evaluating the performance of the engine. Therefore, experimental measurement of the total pressure at the inlet and outlet of the inlet and the combustion chamber can extract key pressure data from the supersonic complex internal flow field, so as to optimize the design of the inlet profile and the combustion chamber structure.

[0003] The prior art generally replaces the inlet, combustion chamber and other flow passages with a wind tunnel test section, and uses the wind tunnel experiment to realize the diagnosis and measurement of the supersonic internal flow field. For total pressure measurement, the most commonly used is a circular hollow pipe total pressure probe. When the wind tunnel flow (if the Mach number is known) passes through, a normal shock wave is generated in front of the probe, and then the subsonic flow is reduced and enters the pipe to be measured. Through the relationship between the total pressure of the wave behind and the normal shock wave, the actual total pressure of the flow at the probe can be deduced. If the total pressure of the flow is known, the Mach number of the flow can also be deduced, and therefore, this probe is also commonly used to calibrate the Mach number of the wind tunnel flow. This traditional total pressure probe needs to know the total pressure or the Mach number when measuring, so as to realize the measurement or deduction of another parameter. However, for the supersonic complex internal flow field, such as the inlet and combustion chamber of the scramjet, the Mach number and the total pressure of the flow are unknown, and therefore, even if the total pressure behind the wave of the probe is known, the actual total pressure in front of the wave at the probe cannot be deduced. In the previous operation method, two wind tunnel experiments are needed. The first experiment uses a circular total pressure probe to measure the total pressure behind the normal shock wave; the second experiment removes the probe and adds a slope with a known angle at the probe, and the shock wave angle of the slope is measured by a schlieren system, the Mach number at the probe is deduced according to the relationship of the oblique shock wave, and finally the total pressure in front of the wave is deduced according to the relationship of the normal shock wave.

[0004] The existing circular total pressure probe is used to measure the total pressure of the supersonic complex internal flow field, and two experiments are needed to deduce the total pressure in front of the wave. On the one hand, the operation is complicated, and the probe and the slope need to be replaced repeatedly, and on the other hand, for the transient flow field, the existing technology cannot realize the simultaneous measurement of the Mach number and the total pressure, and the total pressure of the flow cannot be measured. Moreover, when measuring the total pressure distribution of a certain section, a plurality of probes need to be arranged in an array, and due to the normal shock wave in front of the probe, the problem of mutual interference of the normal shock waves in front of the probes also occurs, which to some extent limits the experimental measurement accuracy of the total pressure distribution of the section. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a device for measuring the total pressure loss in a supersonic internal flow field. This invention can simultaneously measure the Mach number and the total pressure behind the wave, and also reduces shock wave interference when the probe is arranged in a multi-point array, thereby improving the measurement accuracy of the total pressure distribution across the cross section.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is: a measuring device for total pressure loss in a supersonic internal flow field, comprising a total pressure probe, a support rod, and a wind tunnel base plate; the total pressure probe is mounted on the wind tunnel base plate via the support rod.

[0007] Preferably, the total pressure probe has an internal airflow delivery channel, the front end of the total pressure probe has a wedge structure, and a pressure measuring hole is provided at the center of the wedge structure; the rear end of the total pressure probe has an airflow outlet, and the airflow outlet is connected to a pressure scanning valve through a flexible tube.

[0008] Preferably, the angle θ between the wedge structure and the horizontal plane is 20 degrees.

[0009] Preferably, the length and width of the pressure measuring hole are both 0.5 mm.

[0010] As a preferred method, the total pressure loss is measured using the aforementioned total pressure probe as follows:

[0011] S1) Assume that the Mach number and total pressure of the airflow at the upstream end of the total pressure probe are Ma1 and P, respectively. 01 After passing through the oblique shock wave at the leading edge of the wedge, the flow Mach number and total pressure drop are Ma2 and P, respectively. 02 ;

[0012] S2) After the airflow enters the probe, since the flow is still not supersonic, a normal shock wave is generated inside the airflow delivery channel of the probe, causing the flow to slow down to subsonic speed. The Mach number of the flow after the normal shock wave is Ma3, P 03 Subsonic flow total pressure P 03 The subsonic flow total pressure P is collected and recorded by the pressure scanning valve and then processed over time. 03 The specific value;

[0013] S3) The total pressure behind the wave measured by the total pressure probe is the total pressure behind both the oblique shock wave and the normal shock wave. The actual total airflow pressure P at the probe is calculated using the shock wave angle β of the oblique shock wave. 01 .

[0014] Preferably, in step S3), P is obtained based on the total pressure relationship before and after the normal shock wave and the oblique shock wave. 01 and P 02 ;Right now:

[0015]

[0016] In the formula, β is the included angle between the oblique shock wave and the horizontal plane, i.e. the shock wave angle; γ is a preset parameter.

[0017] As preferred, in step S3), the Mach numbers Ma1 and Ma2 are calculated by the following formulae:

[0021] As preferred, the total pressure probes are arranged in a vertical array to simultaneously measure the total pressure at multiple points.

[0022] The present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. The present application does not need to measure the total pressure and the Mach number twice, but can realize the simultaneous measurement of the total pressure and the Mach number in a single measurement, and compared with the traditional circular probe, has the advantages of easy operation and measurement accuracy.

[0024] 2. Compared with the normal shock wave in front of the circular probe, the oblique shock wave in front of the probe in the present application has a smaller degree of blockage to the flow field, and can reduce the influence of the intrusive device on the start of the flow field.

[0025] 3. When the array arrangement probe realizes the simultaneous measurement of the total pressure at multiple points, the influence of the oblique shock wave-oblique shock wave interference in front of the probe in the present application on the measurement accuracy is very low, and the accuracy of the result is higher.
