[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects: The application provides a method, device, equipment and medium for multi-dimensional simulation of a flow field of an icing wind tunnel test section. The method for multi-dimensional simulation of the flow field of the icing wind tunnel test section solves the problem that existing test methods and numerical simulation methods cannot quickly, accurately and comprehensively evaluate whether the flow field of the test section meets the icing test requirements of an aero-engine. On the one hand, a three-dimensional gas-liquid two-phase flow model coupled with an aero-engine performance proxy model is constructed based on an Euler-Lagrange framework and a droplet transformation sub-model, and prediction and analysis of the simulation results of the engine icing meteorological condition test are realized.

The high-credibility simulation results output by the coupling model provide a reliable basis for the optimization of the aerodynamic layout of the test section and the accurate regulation and control of the engine icing test environment parameters.

[0021] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely intended to explain the technical solutions of the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.

[0022] In order to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the following will be described in detail in combination with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Term explanation: Icing wind tunnel: Icing wind tunnel is a test facility specially used for simulating the running state of aircraft and engine in high-altitude icing environment. It can generate low-temperature and high-humidity airflow in a closed cabin, and form a cloud field by injecting liquid water droplets into the airflow through a misting nozzle. During the test, the incoming flow velocity, temperature, pressure, liquid water content, and liquid droplet median volume diameter are usually controlled to approach the real atmospheric conditions.

[0024] Non-uniformity: refers to the uniformity of the distribution of a certain physical quantity in the cross section, commonly represented by the formula δ = (x max −x min ) / x avg . One of the design goals of the icing wind tunnel test section is to ensure that the non-uniformity of the engine inlet and outlet flow field is below a certain threshold, to simulate real flight conditions and ensure test accuracy.

[0025] Surrogate model: an approximate model trained based on high-fidelity simulation results or test data through machine learning, response surface method, etc. Surrogate model can quickly predict the output of complex systems with extremely low computational cost. The performance surrogate model of an aero-engine predicts the engine inlet flow and outlet flow, temperature, and pressure according to the engine inlet total pressure, inlet total temperature, exhaust environment static pressure, and speed, which can replace complex engine performance calculation and save simulation time.

[0026] CFD, i.e. Computational Fluid Dynamics, is a computer-aided engineering technology that analyzes and predicts systems involving fluid flow, heat conduction, and related physical phenomena through numerical calculation methods and computer simulation. The basic principle is to discretize the continuous fluid motion control equation (such as the Navier-Stokes equation) in space and time domain, and then build a corresponding numerical model. By iteratively solving these discretized algebraic equations, the quantitative distribution and evolution of key physical parameters such as velocity, pressure, and temperature can be obtained under specific boundary conditions and initial conditions.

[0027] It should be noted that the execution subject of the present embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program running functions, such as a tablet computer, a personal computer, a mobile phone, etc., or a icing wind tunnel test section flow field multi-dimensional simulation device capable of realizing the above functions. The following takes the icing wind tunnel test section flow field multi-dimensional simulation device as an example to illustrate the present embodiment and the following embodiments.

[0028] As shown in Figure 1 , the preferred embodiment of the present application provides a method for simulating the flow field of an icing wind tunnel test section, comprising the steps of: S1, according to the actual structure of the test section (see Figure 2A geometric model of the test section was established using 3D modeling software (see...). Figure 3 To ensure the smoothness and rationality of the geometric components; the actual structure of the test section includes 1. drive shaft, 2. spray device, 3. rear chamber of the test cabin, 4. aero engine, 5. exhaust diffuser, 6. test bench, 7. free jet nozzle, 8. engine intake duct, and 9. corner section. S2. After completing the geometric modeling of the test section, the computational domain of the test section is meshed. During the meshing process, boundary markers are introduced for subsequent physical model settings and surrogate model coupling. Figure 4 This is a tetrahedral unstructured mesh generated using mesh generation software. S3. Determine the governing equations and select the physical model, including the gas phase flow governing equations, droplet dynamics model, droplet transformation strategy, and interphase coupling between droplets and gas flow. S4. Define the boundary conditions of the test section computational domain, including the test section inlet boundary conditions, the test section outlet boundary conditions, the boundary conditions at the spray device outlet, the wall boundary conditions, and the aerodynamic interface between the aero-engine and the rear compartment of the test cabin. S5. Using aero-engine performance calculation or test data, establish an aero-engine performance proxy model through machine learning, encapsulate the trained proxy model into a general executable file, and couple it with the CFD solver through code. S6. By adopting a time-step iterative approach to transfer information between the CFD solver and the surrogate model, multi-dimensional coupled calculations are performed to complete all time-step calculations and realize multi-dimensional simulation of the flow field in the icing wind tunnel test section.

[0029] This embodiment proposes a multi-dimensional simulation method for the flow field of an icing wind tunnel test section. This method solves the problem that existing experimental testing methods and numerical simulation methods cannot quickly, accurately, and comprehensively assess whether the flow field of the test section meets the requirements of aero-engine icing tests. On the one hand, based on the Eulerian-Lagrange framework and the droplet transformation sub-model, a three-dimensional gas-liquid two-phase flow model coupled with an aero-engine performance proxy model is constructed, realizing the predictive analysis of the simulation results of engine icing meteorological conditions. On the other hand, this method compensates for the limitation of experimental testing data, providing multi-dimensional data such as velocity, pressure, temperature, liquid water content, and droplet size distribution of the test section, providing reliable support for the accurate evaluation of the flow field of the test section.

[0030] In another aspect, the embodiment solves the core challenge of insufficient calculation accuracy caused by fixed boundary conditions and low efficiency of full three-dimensional simulation. Current numerical simulation has two drawbacks: one is to ignore the coupling of engine working conditions and test section flow field, set the engine inlet and outlet as fixed boundary conditions, which leads to distorted simulation results; the second is to take full three-dimensional simulation of the test section and the engine, which brings great calculation difficulty and amount, and cannot adapt to the engineering application scenarios that need rapid iteration. The embodiment proposes a coupling calculation strategy of an aero-engine performance proxy model and a test section CFD. Through the aero-engine performance proxy model, the total temperature and total pressure of the engine inlet section and the exhaust environment static pressure are read from the test section CFD calculation results before the start of each iteration step, the inlet flow rate of the engine under the set speed or fuel flow rate, and the outlet flow rate, temperature and pressure are predicted, and the test section CFD calculation boundary conditions are updated in real time. This strategy takes into account the calculation efficiency while effectively avoiding the resource bottleneck of full three-dimensional simulation and the model error introduced by simplified boundary, realizing the coordinated optimization of calculation accuracy and efficiency. The iterative solution of the coupled model can truly map the complex coupling relationship between the test section flow and the engine performance, and the high-confidence simulation results provide a reliable basis for the optimization of the test section aerodynamic layout and the accurate regulation of the engine icing test environment parameters.

[0031] Preferably, in step S1, when establishing the aero-engine geometric model, a simplified shape contour model is used to reduce the calculation amount, and an interface for interacting with the proxy model is reserved.

[0032] Preferably, in the grid division process of step S2, the grid type is selected as a hybrid grid, wherein local encryption or unstructured grid is used for key areas including nozzle exit, engine inlet and outlet, exhaust diffuser inlet, etc. to capture the flow details of the gas flow field and cloud field, and the grid quality is ensured by checking the indexes of unit distortion, orthogonality and volume distribution.

[0033] Preferably, in step S3, the gas phase flow control equation uses the incompressible or weakly compressible Navier-Stokes equation set as the control equation of the gas phase, including the mass conservation equation, the momentum equation and the energy equation, and an appropriate solver is selected according to the incoming flow Mach number; the turbulence simulation adopts the Reynolds average (RANS) method or the large eddy simulation (LES) method; the energy equation considers the latent heat exchange during heat transfer and phase change; When setting the droplet dynamics model, the droplets are described by Lagrange, and the mass, position, speed and temperature of each droplet or droplet group are tracked over time. The equation for calculating the droplet acceleration is: ; where m p is the droplet mass, v p is the droplet speed, For droplet acceleration, The drag force acting on the droplet, For lift, For gravity, The pressure gradient force is the drag force, which is the product of the drag coefficient and the velocity difference. The drag coefficient can be determined using the Schiller-Naumann model or the Oseen model based on the Reynolds number and droplet shape. Collision aggregation uses the O'Rourke model, and breakup uses the Kelvin-Helmholtz and Rayleigh-Taylor instability criteria. Wall collision is determined by the elastic coefficient and the critical Weber number to determine whether it is rebound, wetting, or breakup. The droplet transformation strategy includes: when the droplet diameter is less than a threshold or the local droplet volume fraction is below a threshold, the Lagrange particle model continues to be used; when the local volume fraction is higher than the threshold, to avoid excessive single-particle tracking leading to a surge in computational load, the droplet swarm is treated as a continuous medium, and the swarm behavior is described using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) or Discrete Element Method (DPM). The swarm model describes the momentum and energy exchange between the droplet swarm and the gas phase through the control volume fraction equation and the swarm dynamics equation. The interphase coupling between droplets and gas flow is specifically as follows: the reaction of droplet motion on the gas phase is added to the gas phase control equation through source terms, including momentum source terms and energy source terms, to express the droplet's drag and heat transfer effects on the gas flow; the CFD solver achieves two-phase coupling by cyclically updating the interphase source terms and droplet trajectory.

[0034] Preferably, in step S4, the boundary conditions of the test section inlet (section A) include the incoming flow velocity, pressure, temperature, relative humidity, and turbulence intensity. The boundary conditions at the test section outlet (sections E and F) include set pressure outlet or full pressure outlet boundary conditions. The boundary conditions at the outlet of the spray device (section B) are set using an atomizing nozzle model. The droplet size distribution and initial velocity are calculated based on the nozzle structure and the water and air supply pressures. The droplet size is usually represented by a log-normal distribution or a Rosner-Marcano distribution. The liquid water content (LWC) and median volume diameter (MVD) are also set. The wall boundary conditions include setting the outer surface of the drive shaft as a rotating wall and setting other walls in the test section as non-slip solid walls, taking into account the influence of wall temperature, roughness and ice layer growth on surface friction; The aero-engine and the rear compartment of the test module include the engine inlet section (C section) and the outlet section (D section). The aero-engine performance proxy model and the test section CFD model are coupled for calculation to realize the dynamic update of the aero-engine interface parameters. Preferably, the operating state of the aero-engine has a significant impact on the flow field of the test section, and directly taking the full three-dimensional coupling simulation of the test section and the engine will bring great calculation difficulty and calculation amount. Therefore, the embodiment adopts the proxy model method, and establishes an aero-engine performance proxy model by machine learning means using aero-engine performance calculation or test data. As shown in the figure, the step S5 specifically includes the steps of: Figure 5 S51, experimental design and data sampling: based on the space filling strategy, sample points are selected in the entire working envelope of the engine, the sample input variables include flight altitude, flight Mach number, inlet total temperature, rotation speed or fuel flow, and the output variables include engine inlet flow and outlet flow, temperature and pressure; the collected samples come from aero-engine performance calculation or test data; S52, feature processing and model selection: the input and output data are normalized, and the applicable proxy model structure is selected, including polynomial response surface proxy model, radial basis function (RBF) proxy model, Kriging (Kriging) proxy model or deep neural network proxy model; for strong nonlinear relationship, a hybrid proxy model or an integrated learning method can be used to improve the prediction accuracy; wherein: The polynomial response surface proxy model (Polynomial Response Surface Model, PRSM) approximates the mapping relationship between the input variables and the system response by constructing a low-order polynomial function, and the typical form is a second-order polynomial containing linear terms, square terms and cross terms. The model has the advantages of high calculation efficiency and strong parameter interpretability, and is especially suitable for rapid analysis of low-dimensional linear or weak nonlinear problems, such as parameter sensitivity research in the early stage of engineering design; however, its limitation is that it is not suitable for fitting high-dimensional complex nonlinear systems, and is prone to overfitting due to high-order terms, resulting in increased extrapolation prediction error; therefore, PRSM is mostly used in optimization scenarios with less than 10 dimensions or as an initialization tool for other high-precision models; the commonly used form is a second-order polynomial: ; In the formula, , , , are polynomial coefficients, y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, n is the polynomial order, and i and j take values in the range of 1 to n.

[0035] ​Radial Basis Function Model (RBF) is based on the radial symmetry function of spatial distance. Its strong nonlinear fitting ability and adaptability to high-dimensional data make it outstanding in the reconstruction of complex system response surface, especially when the data distribution is irregular or there are local mutations. RBF can adapt flexibly by adjusting the center and shape parameters of the basis function. However, the model is sensitive to noisy data and prone to overfitting, which can lead to a decline in generalization performance. The selection strategy of basis function center (such as random sampling, clustering optimization) directly affects the prediction accuracy. This model is widely used in multidisciplinary optimization, real-time control, and other fields, especially in scenarios that require fast interpolation and high dimensionality (such as robot path planning, fluid dynamics parameter inversion). Based on the radial symmetry function (such as Gaussian function, multi-quadratic function), an interpolation model is constructed: ; where, is the radial basis function, is the weight coefficient, y(x) is the objective function, x is the independent variable, N is the interpolation order, i ranges from 1 to n, and x i is the interpolation point.

[0036] Kriging Model combines global trend function and local Gaussian random process. Its core advantage is to quantify the prediction uncertainty (such as 95% confidence interval) and capture spatial correlation through covariance function (such as Matern kernel), thereby accurately describing the response characteristics of nonlinear and non-stationary systems. Kriging Model can still maintain high accuracy with small sample data, and is particularly suitable for the substitution and high-fidelity optimization design of expensive simulation models (such as CFD), but the computational complexity increases cubically with the sample size (O(N 3 ), and the optimization of covariance function hyperparameters has a significant impact on model performance, often requiring maximum likelihood estimation or Bayesian methods for parameter tuning.

[0037] ; where, is the zero-mean Gaussian process, y(x) is the objective function, and f(x) is the global trend function.

[0038] S53, model training and verification; use cross-validation to train the surrogate model and verify it with data not involved in training; evaluate model performance based on prediction error and correlation coefficient indicators, and optimize the model by increasing the sample size or adjusting the model structure; S54, the agent model embedding and coupling; the trained agent model is packaged as a general executable file, and is coupled with the CFD solver through the code. In the model coupling calculation process, the data exchange rule between models is: data exchange is carried out before the start of each iteration step. The model coupling calculation process consists of three main stages: 1. The program code initializes its data and initializes the coupling module.

[0039] 2. The coupling module establishes the connection between the code association and the neighborhood search. Each code calculates the problem of its own part during iteration, and exchanges data at a specific time.

[0040] 3. End the calculation by disconnecting the code and stopping all codes and coupling modules.

[0041] In the iteration process, how many iteration steps a transient problem contains, data is exchanged several times, and the coupling module cannot control the simulation process of the coupling program itself. Therefore, when one party of the coupling program sends data, the other party should be ready to receive.

[0042] For the transient solution problem of joint simulation, the two-way coupling method is adopted, different simulation models send and receive data, and each model performs data exchange before the start of each iteration step, that is, exchange before iteration. Figure 6 The solution exchange process construction process of two coupled codes is shown. ①~⑨ represent the serial number of each data processing process, wherein code A exchanges data before solving, and code B exchanges data after solving. For code A, the box is located at the end of the time step, and the code B box is always located at the beginning of the time step. The first box in each code represents the initial transmission. From left to right, find the first sending operation x in code A. Here starts a transmission line, connected to the r end of code B. Then find the first receiving operation in code B, which is also the first box r. The first transmission of the code is generated. Now continue to the next sending operation, the starting position is in the second box in code B, then connect it to the first box of code A, and so on. In this way, the final algorithm described in Figure 6 The final algorithm described in can be identified as a sequential coupling algorithm. However, note that not all initial transmission combinations can produce a reasonable coupling algorithm.

[0043] In most coupled simulations, data transfer is bidirectional, and the coupled algorithm depends on the order of the solution and transfer and the initial data transfer method chosen. The accuracy and convergence rate of the solution also depend on the choice of the code coupling method. A code exchanges after iteration and a code exchanges before iteration produce a variety of algorithms. However, in practice, only a few algorithms are recommended. To add more algorithms, a dummy "idle program" can be added to the post-solution code exchange, i.e., the two codes are not synchronized. One code always leads the other code by one time step. In general, the serial code coupling method is slower but easier to converge, while the code parallel coupling method is faster but more difficult to converge. For one-way transfer and bidirectional transfer, as the name implies, in some coupled applications, only one-way transfer is used, i.e., one code only sends data to the other code, and the other code only receives data, which reduces the possible number of coupled algorithms. In fact, there is only one basic coupled algorithm. The following describes all possible code coupling methods based on the pre-solution transfer of parameters: First, take the first segment of the coupling code as an example: Figure 7 "serial coupling" indicates serial coupling. In this code, data is first sent from code B to code A, i.e., process ① in the figure; then code A starts iteration calculation and obtains the calculation result, corresponding to process ②; the calculation result is sent to code B through process ③, and B performs iteration calculation through process ④ to obtain the calculation result; the data is transmitted to code A through process ⑤, and this is a loop. The loop continues until the required calculation time is reached. For the "parallel coupling" process, take the first segment of the parallel coupling code as an example. In this code, data is sent from code A to code B at the same time as code B sends data to code A, and both processes are performed simultaneously, and then the two codes start their respective solution processes. At the next time point, data transfer and exchange are simultaneously started, and this continues until the calculation is complete.

[0044] In the data transfer and exchange process of three-dimensional CFD calculation programs and engine proxy model calculation programs, convergence control and parameter range limitation are required. In order to avoid unrealistic numerical values in the data transfer process, the Relaxion Factor convergence control method is used. The Relaxion Factor method is used to under-relax or over-relax the numerical value sent to the receiving party: ; wherein, is the new value used to start the next iteration after relaxation factor control; a is the relaxation factor, is the value of the variable newly calculated by the solver in the current iteration step, is the value of the variable from the previous iteration.

[0045] Relaxion Factor also is the relaxation factor, in the multi-dimensional joint simulation, is a kind of commonly used convergence control method, can control the reasonable and accurate data transmission and exchange of the physical quantity of the coupling boundary. Less than 1 under relaxation may lead to some problems more stable solution, for example, when the transmission and exchange process of the coupled process data has a large number of 'numerical spikes'. However, for some steady coupling cases, over relaxation factor method may be more appropriate, which can improve the convergence of some slow convergence problems.

[0046] Preferably, the multi-dimensional simulation of the embodiment transmits information between the CFD solver and the surrogate model in a time step by step iteration manner, therefore, the step S6 specifically comprises the steps of: S61, initialization stage: import geometry and grid, set initial temperature field, pressure field, velocity field and cloud field; initialize engine operating condition and call surrogate model to calculate the inlet flow and outlet flow, temperature and pressure of the engine under the set speed or fuel flow; S62, CFD solving stage: solve the gas phase and droplet motion equation under the given boundary condition, calculate the instantaneous distribution of the gas flow field and cloud field, and update the interphase coupling source term, solve the flow field by using the pressure-based coupling algorithm (SIMPLE, PISO, etc.), and use the set time step to ensure numerical stability; S63, surrogate model calculation stage: extract the total temperature and total pressure of the engine inlet cross section (C cross section) and the exhaust environment static pressure, input the surrogate model to calculate the inlet (C cross section) flow and outlet (D cross section) flow, temperature and pressure of the engine under the set speed or fuel flow; the surrogate model outputs are used to update the test section CFD calculation boundary conditions; S64, iteration and convergence judgment: compare whether the CFD calculation results and the surrogate model output in the current time step meet the convergence conditions, if not, return the surrogate model output to the CFD solver and continue iteration; if yes, enter the next time step; S65, ice layer growth: if the growth of the wall ice layer needs to be simulated, the ice layer thickness is calculated according to the wall water collection rate, heat transfer amount and freezing rate in each time period, and the wall shape is updated; the grid is adjusted correspondingly by embedding the grid dynamic deformation or local reconstruction module, since the embodiment mainly focuses on the distribution of airflow parameters and cloud parameters, the fixed geometry shape is used to ignore the ice layer change or updated once in the set time scale during the iteration process; S66、Post-processing and data output: After completing all time step calculations, statistical and visual analysis is performed on the flow field data, and velocity vector diagrams, pressure contour maps, temperature contour maps, liquid droplet concentration distribution, particle size distribution, total pressure / total temperature non-uniformity, liquid water content distribution, etc. are output.

[0047] In summary, the above-mentioned embodiment provides a multi-dimensional simulation method for the flow field of the icing wind tunnel test section considering real-time calculation of the performance of the aero-engine. Based on the geometric modeling and grid partitioning of the test section, a three-dimensional gas-liquid two-phase flow model is constructed. The momentum, heat and mass exchange between air and liquid droplets are described by the Euler-Lagrange framework and the liquid droplet transformation sub-model. The performance of the aero-engine is calculated in real time by introducing an aero-engine performance proxy model to calculate the inlet flow rate and outlet flow rate, temperature and pressure of the engine. The CFD solver and the proxy model exchange data before the start of each iteration step, update the boundary conditions in real time, and realize high-fidelity two-way coupling simulation of the test section flow field and the performance of the engine. The simulation results obtained include multi-dimensional data such as test section velocity, pressure, temperature, liquid water content and liquid droplet size distribution, which can be used for test section aerodynamic layout optimization and precise regulation of engine icing test environment parameters. At the same time, the above-mentioned embodiment provides a coupling calculation strategy for the aero-engine performance proxy model and the test section CFD. Through the pre-trained aero-engine performance proxy model, the total inlet pressure, total inlet temperature and exhaust environment static pressure and other parameters are read from the test section CFD calculation results before the start of each iteration step, the inlet flow rate of the engine under the set speed or fuel flow rate is predicted, and the outlet flow rate, temperature and pressure are predicted, and the test section CFD calculation boundary conditions are updated in real time. The strategy iterates at each time step until convergence, ensuring the accuracy and computational efficiency of the coupling of the engine performance and the test section flow field, and providing a general data exchange framework for multidisciplinary simulation.

[0048] It can be seen that, in order to solve the problem that the existing test test means and numerical simulation method cannot quickly, accurately and comprehensively evaluate whether the test section flow field meets the aero-engine icing test requirements, the application provides a high-precision simulation technology capable of truly simulating the gas-liquid two-phase flow field in the test section and the coupling of the gas-liquid two-phase flow field with the performance of the engine. The high-precision simulation technology introduces an aero-engine performance proxy model and a liquid droplet dynamics model in three-dimensional CFD simulation, realizes efficient coupling and prediction of complex gas-liquid two-phase flow and engine performance.
