Abstract

Transonic two-phase flow of Saturated humid air, in which relative humidity is 100%, with various condensation processes around thin airfoils is investigated. The study uses an extended transonic small-disturbance(TSD) model of Rusak and Lee [11, 12] which includes effects of heat addition to the flow due to condensation. Two possible limit types of condensation processes are considered. In the nonequilibrium and homogeneous process, the condensate mass fraction is calculated according to classical nucleation and droplet growth rate models. In the equilibrium process, the condensate mass fraction is calculated by assuming an isentropic process. The flow and condensation equations are solved numerical1y by iterative computations. Results under same upstream conditions describe the flow structure, field of condensate, and pressure distribution on airfoil's surfaces. It is found that flow characteristics, such as position and strength of shock waves and airfoil’s pressure distribution, are different for the two condensation processes. Yet, in each case, heat addition as a result of condensation causes significant changes in flow behavior and affects the aerodynamic performance of airfoils.

얇은 익형 주위에 다양한 응축 과정을 수반하는 상대 습도가 100%인 포화 습공기 천음속 이상 유동에 대하여 연구하였다. 본 연구는 Rusak 과 Lee[11, 12]가 발전시킨 그리고 응축에 의한 열 증가의 효과를 포함하는 확장된 천음속 미 교란 모델을 사용하였고, 응축 과정은 서로 다른 두 가지 형태의 응축 과정을 고려한다. 먼저, 비 평형 균질 과정(nonequilibrium and homogeneous process)에서의 응축 질량비는 고전적 핵형성 이론과 작은 물방울 성장이론에 따라 계산되고, 평형과정(equilibrium process)에서의 응축 질량비는 등엔트로피 가정으로부터 계산된다. 유동 방정식과 응축 방정식들은 반복수치 계산법을 사용하여 그 해를 구하였다. 상류 유동 조건을 같게 하여 얻은 수치계산 결과들은 유동구조, 응축장, 그리고 익형 표면에서의 압력분포 등을 묘사한다. 유동특성, 즉 충격파의 위치와 강도 그리고 익형의 압력분포 등은 서로 다른 두 응축과정에서 각각 다른 유동특성을 나타냈다. 하지만, 각각의 응축과정에서 응축 결과로 생긴 열 증가는 유동거동에 상당한 변화를 야기 시키고 익형의 공력 성능에도 상당한 영향을 미친다.
