Turbulent Transition

The paper is devoted to an experimental and theoretical study of effect of moderate angle-of-attack variation on disturbances evolution and laminar-turbulent transition in a supersonic boundary layer on swept wing at Mach 2. Monotonous growth of the transition Reynolds numbers with angle of attack increasing from −2° to 2.7° is confirmed. For the same conditions, calculations based on linear stability theory are performed. The experimental and computational results show a favourable comparison.

Transfer Data

An investigation was conducted in a hypersonic shock tunnel to study the laminar boundary-layer transition on a highly cooled 10° cone of 4 ft. length over the Mach-number range of 8·5 to 10·5 with a stagnation temperature of 1400 °K. The effects on transition of tip surface roughness, tip bluntness, and ± 2° angle of attack were investigated. With fast-response, thin film surface heat-transfer gauges, it was possible to detect the passage of turbulent bursts which appeared at the beginning of transition. Pitot-tube surveys and schlieren photographs of the boundary layer were obtained to verify the interpretation of the heat-transfer data. It was found that the surface roughness greatly promoted transition in the proper Reynolds-number range. The Reynolds numbers for the beginning and end of transition at the 8·5 Mach-number location were 3·8 × 106−9·6 × 106and 2·2 × 106−4·2 × 106for the smooth sharp tip and rough sharp tip respectively. The local skin-friction data, determined from the Pitot-tube survey, agreed with the heat-transfer data obtained through the modified Reynolds analogy. The tip-bluntness data showed a strong delay in the beginning of transition for a cone base-to-tip diameter ratio of 20, approximately a 35% increase in Reynolds number over that of the smooth sharp-tip case. The angle-of-attack data indicated the cross flow to have a strong influence on transition by promoting it on the sheltered side of the cone and delaying it on the windward side.

Starting Flow

The unsteady lift for incompressible starting flow of a flat plate at high angle of attack involves a repeatable three-phase variation: (a) initial lift drop, (b) a Wagner type lift increase enhanced by leading edge vortex and (c) a lift drop due to a lift-decreasing trailing edge vortex spiral induced by the leading edge vortex convected to the trailing edge. For compressible starting flow at small angle of attack, it is well known that the lift experiences an initial drop due to piston effect and then a Wagner type lift increase enhanced by compressibility. The third phase has not been reported in the past. In this paper we consider subsonic, transonic and supersonic starting flow at high angle of attack. Numerical computation using computational fluid dynamics is used to compute the flow and lift behavior is explained using existing theories. It is found that, when the angle of attack is 20 degrees, we still observe the three-phase lift variation for Mach number below 0.8. The second conclusion is that the lift during the Wagner type increase phase is a decreasing function of the Mach number, in contrast to what we know from piston and indicial function method for small angle of attack. Another important conclusion is, when the Mach number is high enough, say above 0.9, only two-phase variation is observed: (a) initial lift drop and (b) Wagner type lift increase. For supersonic starting flow the Wagner type lift increase is replaced by a linear increase.
