Research paper thumbnail of Numerical Simulation of Accelerating Flows in Inlet of Pipes

The developing length calculated based on different turbulence parameters is studied thoroughly. The SST turbulence model in comparison with recent reported experimental data have been used to achieve reliable predictions. The predictions obtained using all 1, 2, and 3 dimensional cases are generally the same and follow the experiments well. Thus, it seems that one dimensional simulation in fully developed region is sufficient. However, for the inlet region in developing state a two dimensional axisymmetric analysis is required. This research shows that calculating the developing length based on only mean averaged velocity is not adequate, but also turbulence kinetic energy and viscosity must be paid enough attention. Further, the comparison between steady and unsteady flows for the developing length shows that they are very different. This length also depends on both the value of flow acceleration and turbulence delay time in addition to Reynolds number and pipe diameter.

The correct estimation of such flow in thrust optimized parabolic nozzles extremely depends upon the accurate prediction of the onset of flow separation. In this paper, firstly, the significant error of conventional RANS-based turbulence models is shown to predict the onset of flow separation in this type of nozzles. Then, the prediction accuracy is improved through the modification of the essential parameters of the generalized k-ω (GEKO) turbulence model. It was found that modifying the separation and mixing parameters of the GEKO model to realize the turbulent kinetic energy production resulted in the accurate prediction of onset of flow separation at the extensive range of nozzle pressure ratios. Using this modified model with new coefficients reduced the error of about 3...

In this study liquid-gas interface is modeled, using the volume of fluid (VOF) method based on young's algorithm. Transient Navier-Stokes equations are solved along with an equation to track the cavity interface. Turbulent fluctuations in the velocity field are modeled using the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) methodology. Turbulence is assumed to be isotropic and   k RNG turbulence model is used in this investigation. Different free stream velocities are considered. First, the results for variation of cavity length with cavitation number have been compared to the available experimental data for a two-dimensional wedge. The good agreement between the computational and experimental results validates the present numerical method. Then this method has been used to simulate the ventilated cavitation behind a cone with the same chord and angle as the wedge. Simulation shows that, the cavity length will increase by decreasing the cavitation number. The results show that at the same cavitation numbers, the cavity lengths of the wedge are longer than those of the cone.

This simulation is performed using the large eddy simulation (LES) turbulence model. We applied an incompressible LES modeling approach based on an implicit method for the subgrid terms. To apply the cavitation model, the flow has been considered as a single fluid, two-phase mixture. A transport equation model for the local volume fraction of vapor is solved with the LES model and a finite rate mass transfer model is used for the vaporization and condensation processes. The volume of fluid (VOF) method is applied to track the interface of liquid and vapor phases. This simulation is performed using a two phase solver available in the framework of the OpenFOAM (open field operation and Manipulation) software package, namely "interPhaseChangeFoam". The solver is based on the finite volume method. Simulation is performed for the cloud and super cavitation regimes. The results of our simulation are compared with the experimental data and the accuracy of the simulation has been investigated.

Research paper thumbnail of Nose Shape Effect on Flight Dynamics of Supersonic Guided Missile with Continuous Deflectable Nose

The flight dynamics of nine configurations of supersonic continuous deflectable nose guided missi... more The flight dynamics of nine configurations of supersonic continuous deflectable nose guided missiles have been investigated. The studied configurations consist of a spherical nose tip, a tangent ogive, a set of stabilizing tail fins and a cylindrical body having mid-section flexible enough to form an arc of circle. So the cylindrical body consists of a fixed part in the vicinity of nose, middle flexible part and main body with stabilizers. The effects of fixed length and flexible length parameters on the flight dynamics of surface to surface, anti-aircraft and antimissile missiles have been studied. A code has been developed to solve full Navier-Stokes equations using finite volume and modified Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model. Further, a 3 degree of freedom code has been developed to compare planar flight dynamics of missiles. This code consists of a guidance subroutine based on pure pursuit law. The results show that even increase of fixed and flexible lengths enhance the maneuverability of the missile, but in some scenarios this can lead to increased flight time and more errors in the target engagement. Deflected nose relocates mass center away from the axis and a thrust vector torque is created. Study of surface to surface scenario shows that this torque improves accuracy of targeting and the ability of target dislocation. In air defense missiles, increase of Fix and Flex variables will extend the limits of allowable firing angle. However, a heavy nose increases the role of thrust torque and subsequently decreases the role of nose geometry.

With the assumption of a partial non-linear model the cavity condition is applied on the body with the assumption that cavity height is low. Thus there is not any calculation on the cavity surface, but it is restricted to only the panels on the body surface. Cavitation number is known at first and the cavity length is determined in every iteration. When the lengths obtained in two successive iterations are very close to each other it is assumed to be the answer. Based on this method two Kutta conditions including Morino condition and Iterative Pressure Kutta Condition(IPKC) are studied to satisfy the wake surface condition. The application is a w...

For this purpose, we first calculate the thermodynamic properties behind of the normal shock, for the supersonic flow of the hot gas. After finding these properties, we can calculate the boundary layer properties and then we will be able to determine the heat flux of the spherical stagnation point. This heat flux can be used as a boundary condition in heat transfer code for axial asymmetric case. After computing transient multilayer heat transfer toward the inner side of the shell (which material varies in each layer), we can determine stagnation point temperature and temperature distribution in various layers. To verify the validity of the used numerical procedure in this work, comparisons with the theoretical and experimental results for the X-33 space vehicle have been conducted.
