Crackle noise from heated supersonic jets is characterized by the presence of strong positive pressure impulses resulting in a strongly skewed far-field pressure signal. These strong positive pressure impulses are associated with N-shaped waveforms involving a shocklike compression and, thus, is very annoying to observers when it occurs. Unlike broadband shock-associated noise which dominates at upstream angles, crackle reaches a maximum at downstream angles associated with the peak jet noise directivity. Recent experiments (Martens et al., 2011, “The Effect of Chevrons on Crackle—Engine and Scale Model Results,” Proceedings of the ASME Turbo Expo, Paper No. GT2011-46417) have shown that the addition of chevrons to the nozzle lip can significantly reduce crackle, especially in full-scale high-power tests. Because of these observations, it was conjectured that crackle is associated with coherent large scale flow structures produced by the baseline nozzle and that the formation of these structures are interrupted by the presence of the chevrons, which leads to noise reduction. In particular, shocklets attached to large eddies are postulated as a possible aerodynamic mechanism for the formation of crackle. In this paper, we test this hypothesis through a high-fidelity large-eddy simulation (LES) of a hot supersonic jet of Mach number 1.56 and a total temperature ratio of 3.65. We use the LES solver CHARLES developed by Cascade Technologies, Inc., to capture the turbulent jet plume on fully-unstructured meshes.

During hypersonic flight or cruise in the near space, the aerodynamic heating causes a very high temperature on the leading edge of hypersonic vehicles. Transpiration cooling has been recognized the most effective cooling technology. This paper presents an experimental investigation on transpiration cooling using liquid water as coolant for a nose cone model of hypersonic vehicles. The nose cone model consists of sintered porous material. The experiments were carried out in the Supersonic Jet Arc-heated Facility (SJAF) of China Academy of Aerospace Aerodynamics (CAAA) in Beijing. The cooling effect in the different regions of the model was analyzed, and the shock wave was exhibited. The pressure variations of the coolant injection system were continuously recorded. The aim of this work is to provide a relatively useful reference for the designers of coolant driving system in practical hypersonic vehicles.
