Experimental Investigation of Supersonic Mixing Mechanisms of HYLTE Nozzle for DF Chemical Laser

Utilizing experimental techniques of Nano-particle based Planar Laser Scattering (NPLS) and schlieren photography, the flow patterns and mixing characteristics of a designed HYLTE (HYpersonic Low TEmperature) nozzle were investigated in this paper. In order to visualize the non-reacting flowfield of supersonic angled jets into a supersonic crossflow in the HYLTE nozzle, a testing section with w...

An Analysis of Mechanisms Underlying Flow Unsteadiness in Chemical Oxygen- Iodine Laser Mixing Systems

A Numerical Study on Mixing of Transverse Injection in Supersonic Combustor

A numerical study on mixing of hydrogen injected transversely into a supersonic air stream has been performed by solving Two-Dimensional full Navier-Stokes equations. An explicit Harten-Yee Non-MUSCL Modified-flux-type TVD scheme has been used to solve the system of equations, and a zero-equation algebraic turbulence model to calculate the eddy viscosity coefficient. The main objectives of this...

Calculations of subsonic and supersonic turbulent reacting mixing layers using probability density function methods

A particle method applying the probability density function ~PDF! approach to turbulent compressible reacting flows is presented. The method is applied to low and high Mach number reacting plane mixing layers. Good agreement is obtained between the model calculations and the available experimental data. The PDF equation is solved using a Lagrangian Monte Carlo method. To represent the effects o...
