| 总结: | Mixing and combustion processes in scramjet engines involve complicated
aerothermochemical features such as interactions between shock-waves and boundary-layer,
shock induced-combustion and recirculation zones. In this study, a numerical solver is developed
and validated to be an efficient future design tool capable of simulating these complicated flow
features of supersonic combustors. The flow is solved based on the Reynolds averaged
Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, beside a chemical kinetics model for the computation of the
reactions finite rates. Finite-volume scheme is used where the convective fluxes are discretised
by Roe’s scheme using MUSCL approach. And, the diffusive fluxes are centrally discretised.
Point-implicit Runge-Kutta method is applied for time integration. For the code validation,
several test cases are to monitor the code ability to solve for the different diffusive and turbulent
fluxes, and the chemical source term. In addition, the code is validated by resolving the
transverse sonic injection into supersonic air flow in case of helium injection from a flat plate,
and the case of hydrogen injection in single-strut scramjet engine. The effect of this injection
technique in mixing and flame-holding is demonstrated. The results show good agreement with
the previous numerical and experimental investigations. And, the numerical simulator proves its
accuracy and robustness. |
