Importance of a second entrance in a test cell
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
The present paper studies the influence of a secondary intake and its effect on the jet stability. Three configurations have been analyzed: one with the secondary intake closed, the second having a convergent nozzle after the augmentor tube and the third case using a perforated augmentor tube. The secondary intake is used to supply air for cooling the exhaust system. Numerical simulation was realized using the k-є model, which is the most used CFD turbulence model, especially for turbulent flow conditions. The results obtained showed that secondary intake influences the jet stability, because of the pressure differences from the two zones. To resolve this closing the secondary intake is the best option available.

Numerical Study of Transonic Axial Flow Rotating Cascade Aerodynamics – Part 1: 2D Case
The purpose of this paper is to present a 2D study regarding the numerical simulation of flow within a transonic highly-loaded rotating cascade from an axial compressor. In order to describe an intricate flow pattern of...
Random Turbulence Versus Structured Turbulence
The turbulence flows involve more or less the intermittent behavior of motions in two aspects. The first one is the so-called external intermittency associated with what is called partially turbulence flows, especially w...
Influence of drag force upon the shortest time trajectory of an aircraft
The shortest time trajectory of an aircraft between two given locations is determined using a simple mathematical model. By taking into account the drag force (viscous friction force with the air), a problem of variation...
