The high-speed impingement of hollow droplets embedded with a cavity has fundamental applications in various scenarios, such as in spray coating and biomedical engineering. The impingement dynamics is modulated by the wrapping medium, different from that of denser solid droplets. With air and vapour cavities, the impingement of two kinds of hollow cylindrical droplets is simulated in the present study to investigate the morphology and physical mechanisms regarding droplet and cavity dynamics. The compressible two-phase Eulerian model is used to couple with the phase transition procedure. The results detail the evolution of droplets and collapsing dynamics of the two kinds of cavities. Processes are captured in which the impinging water-hammer shock wave interacts with the cavity, and vertical liquid jets are induced to impact the embedded cavity. For the case of the air cavity, a transmitted shock wave is formed and propagates inside the cavity. The air cavities are compressively deformed and broken into a series of small cavities. Subsequently, a range of intermittent collapsing compression wavelets are generated due to the interface collapse driven by local jets. As for the vapour cavity in the saturated state, initially, once it is impacted by the impinging shock wave, it gradually shrinks accompanied by local condensation but without generation of transmitted waves. Following the first interaction between the lower and upper surfaces of the cavity, the vapour cavity undergoes continuous condensation and collapse with repeated interface fusion. The vapour cavity finally turns into liquid water blended into the surroundings, and the strong collapsing shock waves are expanded inside the droplet. The radius ratios and initial impinging speeds are chosen to analyse the variation of the collapsing time, maximum collapsing pressure and mean pressure on the rigid wall. The pressure withstood by the wall due to the collapsing cavity increases with the initial size of the cavity and initial impinging speed. The maximum local pressures in the entire fluids and the mean pressure on the wall during the collapsing of the vapour cavities are higher than those for the air cavities.

This chapter introduces new approach of hypersonic flow generation and experimental study of hypersonic flows over cones with half- angles τ1 = 3◦ and τ2 = 12◦. Mach number of the of the incident flow was M1 = 18. Visualization of the flow structure was made by the schlieren method. Straight Foucault knife was located in the focal plane of the receiving part of a shadow device. Registration of shadow patterns was carried out using high- speed camera Photron Fastcam (300 000 fps) with an exposure time of 1 μs. The Mach number on the cone was calculated from inclination angle of shock wave in the shadowgraph.

This paper describes a method for examining the collapse of arrays of cavities using high-speed photography and the results show a variety of different collapse mechanisms. A two-dimensional impact geometry is used to enable processes occurring inside the cavities such as jet motion, as well as the movement of the liquid around the cavities, to be observed. The cavity arrangements are produced by first casting water/gelatine sheets and then forming circular holes, or other desired shapes, in the gelatine layer. The gelatine layer is placed between two thick glass blocks and the array of cavities is then collapsed by a shock wave, visualized using schlieren photography and produced from an impacting projectile. A major advantage of the technique is that cavity size, shape, spacing and number can be accurately controlled. Furthermore, the shape of the shock wave and also its orientation relative to the cavities can be varied. The results are compared with proposed interaction mechanisms for the collapse of pairs of cavities, rows of cavities and clusters of cavities. Shocks of kbar (0.1 GPa) strength produced jets of c. 400 m s−1 velocity in millimetre-sized cavities. In closely-spaced cavities multiple jets were observed. With cavity clusters, the collapse proceeded step by step with pressure waves from one collapsed row then collapsing the next row of cavities. With some geometries this leads to pressure amplification. Jet production by the shock collapse of cavities is suggested as a major mechanism for cavitation damage.

Abstract In this work, we extend the characteristic-featured shock wave indicator based on artificial neuron training to 3D high-speed flow simulation on unstructured mesh. The extension is achieved through dimension splitting. This leads to that the proposed indicator is capable of identifying regions of flow compression in any direction. With this capability, the indicator is further developed to combine with h-adaptivity of mesh refinement to improve resolution with less computational costs. The present indicator provided an attractive alternative for constructing high-resolution, high-efficiency shock-processing method to simulate high-speed inviscid flows.

This paper is a continuing work from one author on the same topic of the transient aerodynamics during compressor stall/surge using a shock tube analogy by Huang [1, 2]. As observed by Mazzawy [3] for the high-speed high-pressure (HSHP) ratio compressors of the modern aero-engines, surge is an event characterized with the stoppage and reversal of engine flow within a matter of milliseconds. This large flow transient is accomplished through a pair of internally generated shock waves and expansion waves of high strength. The final results are often dramatic with a loud bang followed by the spewing out of flames from both the engine intake and exhaust, potentially damaging to the engine structure [3]. It has been demonstrated in the previous investigations by Marshall [4] and Huang [2] that the transient flow reversal phase of a surge cycle can be approximated by the shock tube analogy in understanding its generation mechanism and correlating the shock wave strength as a function of the pre-surge compressor pressure ratio. Kurkov [5] and Evans [8] used a guillotine analogy to estimate the inlet overpressure associated with the sudden flow stoppage associated with surge. This paper will expand the progressive surge model established by the shock tube analogy in [2] by including the dynamic effect of airflow stoppage using an “integrated-flow” sequential guillotine/shock tube model. It further investigates the surge formation (characterized by flow reversal) and propagation patterns (characterized by surge shock and expansion waves) after its generation at different locations inside a compressor. Calculations are conducted for a 12-stage compressor using this model under various surge onset stages and compared with previous experimental data [3]. The results demonstrate that the “integrated-flow” model closely replicates the fast moving surge shock wave overpressure from the stall initiation site to the compressor inlet.
