The flow around rotor is numerical simulated in hover and forward flight based on multi-structured grid. In hover the flow field can be transformed into a steady-state flow field in the rotating coordinate system. The experimental data of Caradonna and Tung rotor is used to verify the numerical simulation result. The numerical results compare well with the experimental data for both non-lifting and lifting cases. Non-lifting forward flight is simulated and the prediction capabilities have been validated through the ONERA two-blade rotor. The pressure distributions of different positions under different azimuth angles are compared, which is in good agreement with the experimental data. There is unsteady shock wave when forward flight. Dual-time method is used to obtain unsteady flow field with rigid moving grid in the inertial system.

Gunpowder was released in an instant when the pill fly out of the shell during the firing, and then formed a complicated flow fields about the muzzle when the gas expanded sharply. Using the 2 d axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equation combined with single equation turbulent model to conduct the numerical simulation of the process of gunpowder gass evacuating out of the shell without muzzle regardless of the pill’s movement. The numerical simulation result was identical with the experimental. Then simulated the evacuating process of gunpowder gass of an artillery with muzzle brake. The result showed complicated wave structure of the flow fields with the muzzle brake and analysed the influence of muzzle brake to the gass flow field distribution.

In this paper, we use two-phase mixture model and the Realizable k-ε turbulence model to numerically simulate the advection secondary flow in a sedimentation tank. The PISO algorithm is used to decouple velocity and pressure. The comparisons between the measured and computed data are in good agreement, which indicates that the model can fully simulate the flow field in a sedimentation tank.

To research the reasons for the unsatisfactory hydraulic conditions of the reciprocating baffled flocculation tank, this paper investigates its flow field through PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) laboratory experiment tests and numerical simulation. Three numerical schemes, the standard model, RNG model and realizable model, are calibrated and validated with the experimental data gained in this study. They are adopted for comparative study of their validity and accuracy for modeling the effect of the hydraulic characteristics of the flow field on flocculation. The best validated model is then applied to explain the reasons for the low flocculation efficiency and is applied to improve the structure of the reciprocating baffled flocculation tank.

The pressure distributions in cavitations nozzle of three different structures were studied by Hydromechanics theory, the models and mashes were completed by using Gambit software, for the conditions of the inlet pressure to 20MPa and the outlet pressure to 0.1MPa, the flow field within cavitations nozzles is simulated based on the standard k-ε model and the SIMPLE algorithm with Fluent. The result of numerical simulation is consistent with that of analytical calculation. Simulation results show that the flow has a strong shear effect with the surrounding medium in the diffuser, resulting in significant negative pressure, which is conducive to the formation of cavitations bubbles. The angle nozzle is best selected for impinging streams cavitations reactor on this basis in the paper.

Recently, multiwave dynamical theory of neutron diffraction by a moving grating was developed. The theory predicts that at a certain height of the grating profile a significant suppression of the zero-order diffraction may occur. The experiment to confirm predictions of this theory was performed. The resulting diffracted UCNs spectra were measured using time-of-flight Fourier diffractometer. The experimental data were compared with the results of numerical simulation and were found in a good agreement with theoretical predictions.

Three-dimensional computational model for a gas turbine flowmeter is proposed, and the finite volume based SIMPLEC method and k-? turbulence model are used to obtain the detailed information of flow field in turbine flowmeter, such as velocity and pressure distribution. Comparison between numerical results and experimental data reveals a good agreement. A rectifier with little pressure loss is optimally designed and validated numerically and experimentally.

The viscous flow of the supersonic jet element was simulated numerically based on CFD technology, and many tests have been done to verify the numerical precision. The results show that the calculated data are good agreement with the experimental data. So the numerical simulation of the viscous flow for the supersonic jet element is accurate and reliable, and it can be applied to investigate the steady flow and unsteady flow in supersonic jet element.

Abstract Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of the separated flow in axisymmetric CS0 diffuser is conducted. The obtained results are in a good agreement with experimental data of Driver and substantially supplement them. Along with other data, eddy viscosity extracted from performed DNS could be used for RANS turbulence model improvement.

Abstract In order to study the safe distance between twin-parachute during their inflation process for fighter ejection escape, the fighter was equipped with two canopies and two seats, two types of parachute were used to numerically simulate their inflation process, respectively. One of them is C-9, the other a slot-parachute (S-P). Their physical models were built, then the meshes inside and around both parachutes were generated for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulation. The penalty function and the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method were employed in the FSI simulation. To validate the numerical model for FSI simulation, at first the single parachute of the twin-parachute was used for the FSI simulation, the predicted inflation times for both types of parachute were compared with the experimental data. The computed results are in good agreement with experimental data. As a result, the inflation times were predicted with twin-parachute for both kinds of parachute. On the basis of the locations of ejected seats after the separation of seat and pilot, the initial locations and orientations of twin-parachute were also obtained. The numerical simulations for both kinds of parachute were performed by the FSI method, respectively. Our results illustrate that when the interval time for two seats ejected is greater than 0.25s, two pilots attached the twin-parachute are safe, and the twin-parachute would not interfere each other. Moreover, our results also indicate that the FSI simulation for twin-parachute inflation process is feasible for engineering applications and have a great potential for wide use.
