| 内容記述 | This paper summarizes the near-field flow characteristics measured downstream of a half-scale two-dimensional wind-tunnel model of the inlet vanes designed for the National Full-Scale Facilities Complex at NASA Ames Research Center. Variations on this baseline were tested to determine how the downstream flow field is affected. Evaluations of the various configurations were made by the use of hot-wire surveys across the flow-field. These traverses yielded the properties of total pressure, boundary layers, and turbulence in the wake of the vanes. It was found that large variations in the flow field characteristics downstream of the vanes are achieved by the use of various arrangements of splitter vanes, vortex generators, screens, tail extensions, and honeycomb. Separation on the boat-tails of the vanes can be controlled and turbulence reduced by suitable combinations of screens or honeycomb or both. The penalties associated with each modification in terms of increased pressure loss are also presented. |
