    • The Effect of Length-to-Depth Ratio on Flow and Aeroacoustic Characteristics of Cavity

      2014, 5(1):18-24.

      Abstract (4211) HTML (0) PDF 3.38 M (1721) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:The effect of length-depth ratio (L/D) on flow and aeroacoustic characteristics of cavity is studied using detached eddy simulation (DES) based on Realizable k-εturbulent model. The cavity is 0.508m long by 0.1016m and the depth is variable to obtain L/D ratio of 3,5,8,14,17. The Mach number is 0.85 and the Reynolds number is 6.84 × 106. The results indicate that L/D is significant on the pressure gradient and aeroacoustics, and the flow type changes gradually from open cavity flow to closed cavity flow with the increase of L/D. In addition, static pressure, fluctuating pressure and aeroacoustic characteristics must be considered when defining cavity flow types.

    • Investigation on Mechanisms of Separation Control over an Airfoil Using Nanosecond Pulsed Plasma Actuator

      2014, 5(1):25-32.

      Abstract (1997) HTML (0) PDF 9.41 M (1410) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:A constructed one-zone inhomogeneous phenomenological model of Nanosecond Dielectric Barrier Discharge (NSDBD) is coupled with the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations to model the effects of nanosecond plasma actuation on flowfield. The coupled system is solved by using unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations (URANS) which can predict the compression-expansion wave structures and wave speed well compared with experimental results and can be applied to simulate the flow control by using NSDBD. The model is adopted to investigate the separation control airfoil using NSDBD plasma actuator. The separation-control mechanisms over NACA0015 are investigated by using URANS and Large-Eddy Simulation (LES). It is found that the transition from laminar to turbulence can be promoted by plasma actuation, and that flow transition acts as an important factor in the flow-separation control. At the Begining of the actuation, each actuation can produce a spanwise vortex around the separation point near the leading edge. The spanwise vortices make the separated free-shear layer unstable and shedding away, move downstream along the upper wall, and bring outer flow with high kinetic energy into the near wall region to change the flow structures over the airfoil. Then, the flow around the leading edge of the airfoil reattach after encountering a separation bubble because of the earlier transition. At last, the flow on the upper surface of the airfoil become fully attached.

    • Investigation of Aerodynamic Behavior for Bumpy Inflatable Wing

      2014, 5(1):38-45.

      Abstract (2477) HTML (0) PDF 13.66 M (1320) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Inflatable wings possess charming potential in airships and future morphing aircrafts. But the structural features of inflatable soft wing are obviously different with traditional hard wing, and there are many bumps on the profile of inflatable wing. The effects of these bumps on aerodynamical and aeroelastical behavior get increasing attention from researchers recently. This paper constructed the CFD models of smooth NACA0015 airfoil and bumpy inflatable wing(named 0015F2 airfoil) with CFX software. Numerical results show that 0015F2 airfoil has larger stall attack angle than NACA0015 airfoil, but the slope of the lift coefficients vs attack angel curve and the lift-drag ratio of bumpy wing is lower than the smooth NACA0015 airfoil. The effects of the bumps on boundary layer can be grasped though analysis of the velocity profiles normal to the surface at different chord locations. The bumpy airfoil promotes a thicker boundary layer than that of the smooth airfoil at the same chord locations. The unsteady simulations show that the vortices form within each vicinity of the bumps, and these vortices prevents the separation seen in the smooth airfoil simulations so that the stall angel of attack is increased.

      Abstract:A finite element model of composite laminate with delamination damage was established to analysis the fatigue delamination propagation behavior of composite laminate, and took B-K standard based on the energy release rate as the criterion of delamination growth. The residual strength model was adopted and VUMAT user subroutine was introduced to judge the failure of model and reduce the stiffness performance of material. Based on the Abaqus simulation analysis software, the delamination growth mechanism of composite laminates with initial delamination damage under fatigue compression load was simulated. The results indicated that with the fatigue load applying, the delamination length increased and reached a stable value finally, while the delamination growth rate reduced, a good agreement was obtained between FEA analysis and the experimental results.

      2014, 5(1):53-58.

      Abstract (1997) HTML (0) PDF 5.00 M (1422) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:The stress intensity factors of the integral wing beam structure with stopping-crack stringer are researched by use of FEM software ANSYS, and the crack propagating tests are achieved using simulate specimen. Results indicate that the value of the stress intensity factors have been a sharp decline due to the normal stress in the beam is shared by the stringer, and which is ability to share high static load so as to achieve fail-safe design before the crack extend to the stringer, nevertheless it is hard to stop the crack propagation by stringer. Beside, the shear stress in beam plate can’t serves to propagate model II crack since the ratio of the shear stress to the normal stress is smaller.

      Abstract (1650) HTML (0) PDF 2.03 M (1185) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:In this paper, the developments of functionally graded materials and graded finite elements are reviewed. By taking into account of thermal and plastic behaviours of materials, a thermo-elasto-plastic graded finite element method has been derived. The method, being capable of describing spatially varying material properties, has been implemented in the commercial finite element code ABAQUS by using user-defined material subroutines for solving engineering problems. To illustrate the applicability of the method, a case example has been preformed to study the mechanical response of a ceramic-FGMs-metal sandwich structure. The merits of the method have discussed on the basis of the numerical results. Further developments of the method would be useful for skeletal muscle simulation.

      2014, 5(1):104-108.

      Abstract (1374) HTML (0) PDF 4.63 M (1096) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Monotonic tension tests and tension-tension fatigue tests combined with microscopic observation by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed to investigate the fatigue behavior and life prediction of 2D C/SiC. The results show that C/SiC exhibits metal-similar ductile fracture behavior. The fatigue limit is about 85% of ultimate tensile strength(UTS), which indicates that C/SiC has excellent fatigue performance under room temperature. The tendency of the S-N curve of the notched specimen is consistent with the curve of the smooth specimen. But the curve of the notched specimen is higher than that of the smooth specimen, due to the notch insensitivity and notch blunted effect of composite materials. According to the test results, a fatigue prediction model based on the nominal stress is presented.

A turbofan engine disk is estimated with the program mentioned above. It is studied that the disk size and weight change with the radius of the center bore and the value of AN2 of the rotor blade. In addition, it is also studied that the disk size and weight change with the replacement of the rotor blade material at different radius of center bore and different values of AN2. The results show that there exists an optimum combination of disk stress and the radius of the center bore to get the minimum disk weight under limits of strength load and structure. With the new material of lower density for blade, the radius of the center bore of the disk will increase so that the rotor structure becomes bling, its weight dropped significantly.
