| 内容記述 | A computational analysis of Mach 6.2 operation of a hypersonic inlet with rectangular-to-elliptical shape transition has been performed. The results of the computations are compared with experimental data for cases with and without a manually imposed back-pressure. While the no-back-pressure numerical solutions match the general trends of the data, certain features observed in the experiments did not appear in the computational solutions. The reasons for these discrepancies are discussed and possible remedies are suggested. Most importantly, however, the computational analysis increased the understanding of the consequences of certain aspects of the inlet design. This will enable the performance of future inlets of this class to be improved. Computational solutions with back-pressure under-estimated the back-pressure limit observed in the experiments, but did supply significant insight into the character of highly back-pressured inlet flows. |
