Abstract The stage separation of high-speed vehicle is complicated at high dynamic pressure, usually accompanied by strong shock and vortex interaction. There exists a strong interaction between first stage and second stage, which called “afterbody-effects”. The aerodynamic mechanism of “afterbody-effects” is studied in this paper based on numerical simulation. The aerodynamic characteristics of a simplified three-dimensional projectile model at different distances between stages at 0° angle of attack is researched with structural mesh. The results show that the vortexes of stages have a significant impact on the aerodynamic characteristics of different stages, As the distance between stages increases, the drag coefficient of the first stage increases, and the drag coefficient of the second stage increases first and then decreases.

The Relationship

Cutting is an effective device to reduce crosswind loads acting on trains. The cutting depth, width and gradient of slope are important factors for design and construction of cutting. Based on numerical analysis methods of three-dimensional viscous incompressible aerodynamics equations, aerodynamic side forces and yawing moments acting on the high-speed train, with different depths and widths of cutting，are calculated and analyzed under crosswinds，meanwhile the relationship of the gradient of cutting slope and transverse aerodynamic forces acting on trains are also studied. Simulation results show that aerodynamic side forces and yawing moments acting on the train（the first, middle and rear train）decrease with the increase of cutting depth. The relationship between transverse forces (moments) coefficients acting on the three sections and the cutting depth basically is the three cubed relation. The bigger is cutting width，the worse is running stability of train. The relationship between yawing moments coefficients acting each body of the train and the cutting width approximately is the three cubed relation. The transverse Aerodynamic forces decreased gradually with the increase of the gradient of cutting slope, the relationship between yawing moments coefficients acting each body of the train and the gradient of cutting slope basically is the four cubed relation.

Lower Reynolds Number

The effects of aspect ratio and Reynolds number on aerodynamic characteristics of three-dimensional rectangular wing at low Reynolds number of 103 to 105, are investigated with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes solver with the Baldwin-Lomax model. Present results show that lift coefficient decreases drastically at lower aspect ratio than 4. Besides, the much larger viscous drag coefficient is obtained at the lower Reynolds number, especially lower than 104. In order to focus on designing practical wings, the particular cases under the condition of fixed wing-surface area and fixed main stream velocity are conducted. The results show that there is trade-off between the decrease in viscous drag coefficient with increasing Reynolds number and the increase in lift coefficient with increasing aspect ratio. At the lower Reynolds number condition, as the former effect is stronger than the latter one, maximum lift-to-drag ratio is obtained at lower aspect ratio.

The Relationship

Experimental and computational methods were used to study the structure and behavior of the shedded vortices around a V-ball valve. Strouhal frequency for shedded vortices around the valve over a range of operating conditions and flow rates using water as the medium were measured. The information gathered in this study would help to predict at what operating conditions pipe ruptures might occur. A dynamic pressure transducer was used to determine the Strouhal frequency. LDV was used to measure the mean velocity and turbulence magnitudes. FLUENT was used to develop a two dimensional fluid dynamics model. Flow was visualized using high-speed video photography. A dominant large three-dimensional vortex downstream of the valve was detected. The centerline of this vortex is a shadow of the valve lip. A fifth degree polynomial describing the relationship between the Strouhal number and Reynolds number is obtained.

Abstract With the increase of the speed of fast freight train, the aerodynamic effect of freight train in open-line intersection is more obvious. However, at present, there are many domestic researches on the aerodynamic characteristics of high-speed train open-line intersection, and almost no researches on fast freight train. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the aerodynamic characteristics of open line intersection of fast freight train in order to improve the safe operation of freight train in China. Based on the theory of computational fluid dynamics and finite volume method, uses FLUENT software to numerically calculate the three-dimensional, unsteady, compressible and turbulent flow fields in open line intersection of fast freight train at different speeds. The calculations results indicate that: when two freight trains meet, the amplitude of the pressure wave at the intersection side is the largest and the closer to the train bottom, the greater the amplitude of the pressure wave. The pressure amplitude of the bottom measuring point is 34.09% higher than that of the top measuring point. When two cars intersect at the same speed, the higher the speed, the greater the pressure amplitude and the pressure amplitude is proportional to the square of the speed. The fitting formula is: ΔP = cV2 ; When two trains intersect at different speeds, the impact on freight train with lower speed is greater than higher one.

Compressor Design

An existing throughflow method for axial compressors, which accounts for the effects of spanwise mixing using a turbulent diffusion model, has been extended to include the viscous shear force on the endwall. The use of a shear force, consistent with a no-slip condition, on the annulus walls in the throughflow calculations allows realistic predictions of the velocity and flow angle profiles near the endwalls. The annulus wall boundary layers are therefore incorporated directly in the throughflow prediction. This eliminates the need for empirical blockage factors or independent annulus boundary layer calculations. The axisymmetric prediction can be further refined by specifying realistic spanwise variations of loss coefficient and deviation to model the three-dimensional endwall effects. The resulting throughflow calculation gives realistic predictions of flow properties across the whole span of a compressor. This is confirmed by comparison with measured data from both low and high speed multi-stage machines. The viscous throughflow method has been incorporated into an axial compressor design system. The method predicts the meridional velocity defects in the endwall region and consequently blading can be designed which allows for the increased incidence, and low dynamic head, near to the annulus walls.

Significant Performance

Axial compressors have inherently unsteady flow fields because of relative motion between rotor and stator airfoils. This relative motion leads to viscous and inviscid (potential) interactions between blade rows. As the number of stages increases in a turbomachine, the buildup of convected wakes can lead to progressively more complex wake/wake and wake/airfoil interactions. Variations in the relative circumferential positions of stators or rotors can change these interactions, leading to different unsteady forcing functions on airfoils and different compressor efficiencies. In addition, as the Mach number increases the interaction between blade rows can be intensified due to potential effects. In the current study an unsteady, quasi-three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis has been used to investigate the unsteady aerodynamics of stator clocking in a 1-1/2 stage compressor, typical of back stages used in high-pressure compressors of advanced commercial jet engines. The effects of turbulence have been modeled with both algebraic and two-equation models. The results presented include steady and unsteady surface pressures, efficiencies, boundary layer quantities and turbulence quantities. The main contribution of the current work has been to show that airfoil clocking can produce significant performance variations at the Mach numbers associated with an engine operating environment. In addition, the growth of turbulence has been quantified to aid in the development of models for the multi-stage steady analyses used in design systems.

Mesh Method

The aerodynamic performances of a high speed train will significant change under the action of the crosswind. Large eddy simulation (LES) was made to solve the flow around a simplified CRH2 high speed train with 250km/h and 350km/h under the influence of a crosswind with 28.4m/s base on the finite volume method and dynamic layering mesh method and three dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Wind tunnel experimental method of static train with relative flowing air and dynamic mesh method of moving train were compared. The results of numerical simulation show that the flow field around train is completely different between Wind tunnel experiment and factual running. Many vortices will be produced on the leeside of the train with alternately vehicle bottom and back under the influence of a crosswind. The flow field around train is similar with different vehicle speed.

This report presents a study on the performance of the fully porous and the partially porous aerostatic journal bearings. Based on the finite volume method and the pressure-velocity coupling scheme of the SIMPLE algorithm with the standard k-ε turbulent model, this study utilized the CFD software to solve the incompressible three dimensional Navier-Stokes equations to calculate the pressure of the flow field in the bearings. The effects of the size of the porous medium, the bearing gap, the eccentric ratio and the rotational speed of the spindle on the characteristics of the bearing such as the pressure distribution, the load carrying capacity and the stiffness were investigated. The computed results revealed that, when the spindle rotated at high speed, the effect of the dynamic pressure became dominant, while the effect of the static pressure became insignificant. Among the three types of journal bearings under investigation, the partially porous aerostatic journal bearing exhibited the highest ratio of output pressure to air volume flow rate. It indicated that, in terms of operational efficiency, the partially porous aerostatic journal bearing is superior to the fully porous aerostatic journal bearing.

The high-speed airflow generated by ultra-high-speed elevators causes significant aerodynamic force, which seriously reduces the comfort and safety of passengers. First, a multi-parameter general model of ultra-high-speed elevator was established, and the three-dimensional numerical simulation of incompressible flow in the ultra-high-speed elevator was simulated. The correctness of the model and method was verified by experiments and grid-independence analyses. On this basis, the variation in the aerodynamic forces and the pressure in the hoistway was analyzed. Finally, the influence of different hoistway structures and parameters of ventilation holes on the aerodynamic forces and hoistway pressure were analyzed. The results showed that the opening of ventilation holes significantly reduced the aerodynamic forces and hoistway pressure for most of the period of the car’s operation period, but both the aerodynamic forces and hoistway pressure showed a sudden increase–decrease process. The aerodynamic forces and hoistway pressure were highly sensitive to changes in the hoistway blockage ratio, the cross-sectional area of the ventilation hole, and the position of the ventilation hole. When a pair of ventilation holes were opened, those in the middle of the hoistway reduced aerodynamic problems in the hoistway to the greatest extent. The increase in the connection angle between the ventilation hole and the hoistway eliminated the low-speed recirculation zone at the ventilation hole and increased the total volume of exhaust air at the ventilation hole.
