Effects of Injection Gases on High-temperature Hypersonic Laminar/turbulent Boundary Layer Flow
The thermal protection of hypersonic aircrafts in flight are under the threat of severe aerodynamic thermal problems.The active thermal protection technology through mass injections can effectively reduce the skin-friction and heat flux on the wall,and thus has become a hot topic in thermal protection research.However,the laws and differences in the effects of injection gases on the high-temperature hypersonic laminar/turbulent boundary layer flow are still unclear,and this is an urgent aerodynamic problem to be solved in active thermal protection design.This paper selects a two-dimensional flat model and adopts the shear stress transport (SST) model to conduct numerical simulation research on the heat flux and skin-friction reduction considering injection gases.The effects of three injection gases,i.e.,water vapor,carbon dioxide,and pyrolysis gas,on the high-temperature hypersonic laminar/turbulent flow are analyzed.The results show that under the pyrolysis gas injection,there are significant differences in the velocity and temperature distributions of the laminar/turbulent shock layer.Compared with no injection,the three gases all effectively reduce the velocity and temperature gradient at the turbulent boundary layer,and then reduce the skin-friction and heat flux on the wall.Compared with the other two gases,the pyrolysis gas has the most significant effects on the skin-friction and heat flux reduction.The research results also indicate that the three gases significantly increase the Reynolds stress and intensify the turbulent fluctuation.
