A model of a NUAA-PTRE pre-cooled air turbine engine was established. The design point parameters of the engine were optimized, including the pressure ratio, air flow rate of the compressor, efficiency, throat area, and efficiency of the turbine. The air flow rate at the engine operating point was 142.73 kg/s. High performance of the key components under a wide range of working conditions was realized after optimization. To achieve the indicators of the overall scheme, adaptability studies of key components were conducted. A three-stage variable geometry design was applied to the inlet. The pre-cooler was optimized with a power-to-weight ratio of over 100 kW/kg and a compactness of 278 m2/m3. The built-in rocket gas generator and dual-component injector were developed, and the combustion and heat transfer processes were simulated. The overall optimization design of the NUAA-PTRE and the adaptive design of the components were completed, and high performance of the engine in a wide range of flight conditions at Ma 0~5 and altitude 0~25 km was achieved.
Fighters have increasingly demanding performance on both aerodynamic and stealth. To adapt the design requirement of various irregular-shaped supersonic inlets integrated with flat fuselages, a design method for non-axisymmetric generalized internal conical (NAGIC) flowfield is discussed and then developed. By osculating axisymmetric flow concept and method of characteristics, the developed supersonic NAGIC flowfield can be inversely designed with arbitrary capture curves, controllable incident/terminal shock wave geometries, and post terminal shock wave pressure. Employing the streamline tracing technique, a set of external-compression inward-turning inlets with triangle-like flat capture shapes for supersonic stealth fighters are obtained to verify the design method. The study find that the internal contraction ratio and flow distortion of the inlet are reduced significantly by replacing the weak reflected shock wave in the original hypersonic NAGIC flowfield with a strong one. Thus, the compatibility between inlet and engine is improved in a relatively wide range. In addition, the irregular-shaped curved-compression inlet has high mass ratio and total pressure recovery ratio with negligible cross flow and uniform flow at throat. The performance of inlets with complex configurations can be further improved by matching the entrance geometries of basic flowfields and inlets.
以双通道涡轮/冲压组合发动机为例,在不影响涡轮通道工作状况条件下,研究了低速段冲压通道富余气流处理方式对发动机阻力特性影响.采用动量定理与壁面积分两种方法对比了冲压通道开启与关闭两种方案下发动机总体受力情况,提出了一种冲压通道冷态尾喷管节流减阻措施.研究表明:两种受力分析方法结果一致,均能准确评估发动机受力;相比于冲压通道关闭、气流高速绕过发动机的情况,冲压通道开启状态下,进气道溢流阻力小,即富余高速气流经冲压通道减速后,直接排出发动机所产生的阻力更低,且来流马赫数越低,两种方案的阻力差距越大;此外,合理控制冲压通道下游尾喷管喉道面积,降低冲压通道内的流速对发动机总体有明显减阻效果,Ma∞=0.8、1.0时减阻最为明显,最高减阻54.0%.
The inverse design of super/hypersonic flows is widely utilized in aerospace, especially in waveriders, inlets, and nozzles. However, most of the existing methods are intended for the two-dimensional (2D) problem. The inverse method for generalized three-dimensional (3D) supersonic flows is still immature and is the main purpose of the space-streamline-based method of characteristics (SMOC) presented in this paper. The key of SMOC is to integrate an additional Euler predictor–corrector algorithm for pressure gradients in the unit calculation process. In this way, the temporary orientation of the osculating plane (OP) of the space streamline is determined, and the conventional 2D axisymmetric method of characteristics can be adopted in the OP. Three common unit processes of SMOC and the posedness are introduced, and the astringency is demonstrated by corresponding algebraic calculations. With this method, inviscid super/hypersonic flows can be solved on the basis of specified flow features, such as a 3D shock surface or a 3D wall pressure distribution. The accuracy and efficiency of SMOC are verified by using an inverse design example, that is, the flow produced by an elliptic conical surface at a freestream Mach number of 6. The numerical simulation of the inverse design result indicates that the 3D shock wave geometry and the 3D wall pressure distribution match the targets completely. The relative root-mean-squared error of the surface geometry is 10−3 magnitude, and the computation time cost of the inverse design is less than that of the general direct Euler solver.

Conventional compression profile of a chin inlet has an inevitable 3D effect, particularly under the condition of large angle of attack. This condition results in overflow and decrease of mass capture coefficient. In response to this problem, based on the variable geometry adjustment scheme of the original throat slider moving forward and backward, an integrated design of the chin inlet with waverider forebody and practical modification is conducted. Numerical studies show that the waverider forebody variable geometry chin inlet is designed with a working range of Ma 2.5 to Ma 4.0, the lift-drag ratio is 2.54 at the design condition, and the mass capture coefficient is 1.140, which is 3.6% higher than that of the original conventional inlet. Furthermore, the exit critical total pressure recovery coefficient and pressure ratio are 0.501 and 74.54, which are 9.6% and 11.8% higher than the original inlet, respectively. The practical modification can significantly reduce the size of the forebody. Although the performance of the inlet is slightly lower than before the modification, it is still higher than that of the original conventional inlet.

To provide ease of integration design of forebody/hypersonic inward turning inlet as well as to extend the domain of option for basic flowfield of the inlet, a design method for axisymmetric basic flowfield with controllable incident/reflected shock wave and certain post reflected shock parameter distribution is developed by using the method of characteristics and optimization algorithm. On this basis, a design method for non-axisymmetric generalized internal conical (NAGIC) basic flowfield is proposed by using the theory of osculating axisymmetric flows to incident and reflected shock wave in parallel. Numerical simulations are performed to verify the design methods. Detailed flow characteristics of NAGIC flowfield with an elliptical entrance that is assigned somewhat arbitrarily are presented. The incident and reflected shock wave geometries are controllable as given. In cross sections, the shock wave geometries are similar to the entrance shape of the inner cone. In osculating planes, the incident and reflected shock waves attach accurately to the lip and the shoulder, respectively. In addition, the crossflow in the 3D flowfield is negligible, and the flow parameters in the exit plane are almost uniform. Thus, the NAGIC flowfield is suitable for inward turning inlet design with complex configurations.
Traditional osculating axisymmetric flow (OA) theory is widely used in the inverse design of generalized shock waves. However, this theory is only applicable to uniform incoming flows. In this paper, a novel method called micro osculating axisymmetric flow (MOA) method is proposed to solve the inverse problem of the 3D generalized shock wave design under non-uniform incoming flows. This method constructs a series of micro osculating planes (MOPs) along the shock wave surface in spanwise and streamwise directions. Actual 3D flows are then approximated by 2D axisymmetric flows in each MOP. Thus, the new method breaks the restriction of no lateral velocities or pressure gradients in the traditional method. An internal conical shock wave at a 4° angle of attack and the other one in an external conical flow of a 10° cone half-angle are obtained by the novel method to validate its feasibility and applicability. Numerical simulation results of the two cases indicate that the 3D shock wave geometries completely match the target. A streamwise integration of the inward turning wavecatcher inlet and outward turning waverider forebody is also presented. This integration shows the remarkable application prospects of the MOA method in the field of air-breathing hypersonic propulsion.

To explore performance potential of hypersonic curved shock compression, high performance curved shock compression design results were obtained through multi-objective optimization and sampling com-putation, and were compared with traditional compression, under both inviscid and viscous condition. The re-sults show that,(1) under inviscid condition,in the Pareto solutions of Multi-objective optimization,there ex-ist curved shock compression cases,which have shorter length,higher compression efficiency and higher mass capture ratio under low flight Mach number, than traditional equal shock strength three ramps compression;(2) under viscous condition,when pressure ratio is 8.29 (1±0.5%),compared with isentropic compression, the length of curved compression is 35%shorter;compared with traditional equal shock strength three ramps com-pression,the length of curved compression is 8%shorter,the total pressure ratio is approximately equal,and the mass capture ratio under flight Mach number of 4 is 6% higher; compared with ramp-isentropic compres-sion, the total pressure ratio of curved compression is 1.1% lower, while the mass capture ratio under flight Mach number of 4 is 6% higher; outlet boundary layer thickness and shape factor of curved shock compression are lower than those of other compression methods.
In order to improve the seal and aerodynamic heating at the variable geometry throat section of RBCC inlet at high Mach number,an over/under type inlet was discussed by referring to the corresponding inlet that was previously applied to the TBCC.In the range of low Mach number,the inlet was adjusted to get a prop-er total contraction ratio and the same internal contraction ratio of each passage. Thus the two passages could gain similar performance parameters to reduce the mixing loss and resist the roughly same back pressure.In the range of high Mach number,the low-speed passage was closed and the high-speed passage was kept fixed.The numerical simulation results indicate when the free stream Mach number are 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, the average Mach number of the two throat and outlet sections are similar, the deviations do not exceed 0.05 and the mass flow rate reaches about 0.7.In summary,this design enables the inlet to possess a high mass flow rate and good performance during the whole working range Ma=2~6,and the adjusting method is practical and feasible.
