The flap side edge vortex is suspected to contribute to aerodynamic noise generation. Using a temporal stability analysis, Khorrami and Singer have shown that unstable modes could exist in this vortex. Due to the convective nature of this instability, a spatial analysis is more suitable. This is the subject of the present work. The mean flow past a 2D wing with a half-span flap has been computed with a steady 3D Navier-Stokes code. Then, local linear stability calculations are performed in several planes perpendicular to the vortex axis. The vortex is assumed axisymmetric and modelled with Batchelor's analytical vortex. Using Gaster's relation, the spatial amplification rate is calculated, giving by integration the relative amplitude of the fluctuations. Some low-frequency fluctuations are seen to be preferentially amplified by the vortex, but the amplifications remain small, so that this mechanism alone should not produce important noise in this particular configuration, where the flap deflection angle is moderate.

The Stability

Abstract The stability characteristics of an open cavity flow at very high Mach number are examined with BiGlobal stability analysis based on the eigenvalues of the linearized Navier-Stokes equations. During linearization, all possible first-order terms are retained without any approximation, with particular emphasis on extracting the effects of compressibility on the flowfield. The method leverages sparse linear algebra and the implicitly restarted shift-invert Arnoldi algorithm to extract eigenvalues of practical physical consequence. The stability dynamics of cavity flows at four Mach numbers between 1.4 and 4 are considered at a Reynolds number of 502. The basic states are obtained through Large Eddy Simulation (LES). Frequency results from the stability analysis show good agreement when compared to the theoretical values using Rossiter’s formula. An examination of the stability modes reveals that the shear layer is increasingly decoupled from the cavity as the Mach number is increased. Additionally, the outer lobes of the Rossiter modes are observed to get stretched and tilted in the direction of the freestream. Future efforts will extend the present analysis to examine current and potential cavity flame holder configurations, which often have downstream walls inclined to the vertical.

Made In

A non-parallel linear stability analysis which utilizes the assumptions made in the parabolized stability equations is applied to the buoyancy-driven flow in a differentially heated cavity. Numerical integration of the complete Navier–Stokes and energy equations is used to validate the non-parallel theory by introducing an oscillatory heat input at the upstream end of the boundary layer. In this way the stability properties are obtained by analysing the evolution of the resulting disturbances. The solutions show that the spatial growth rate and wavenumber are highly dependent on the transverse location and the disturbance flow quantity under consideration. The local solution to the parabolized stability equations accurately predicts the wave properties observed in the direct simulation whereas conventional parallel stability analysis overpredicts the spatial amplification and the wavenumber.

The Stability

On the basis of the linearized fluid forces acting on the rotor obtained directly by using the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, the stability of symmetrical rotors with a cylindrical chamber partially filled with a viscous incompressible fluid is investigated in this paper. The effects of the parameters of rotor system, such as external damping ratio, fluid fill ratio, Reynolds number and mass ratio, on the unstable regions are analyzed. It is shown that for the stability analysis of fluid filled rotor systems with external damping, the effect of the fluid viscosity on the stability should be considered. When the fluid viscosity is included, the adding external damping will make the system more stable and two unstable regions may exist even if rotors are isotropic in some casIs.

The Stability

We examine the behaviour of a compound capillary jet from the spatio-temporal linear stability analysis of the Navier–Stokes equations. We map the jetting–dripping transition in the parameter space by calculating the Weber numbers for which the convective/absolute instability transition occurs. If the remaining dimensionless parameters are set, there are two critical Weber numbers that verify Brigg's pinch criterion. The region of absolute (convective) instability corresponds to Weber numbers smaller (larger) than the highest value of those two Weber numbers. The stability map is affected significantly by the presence of the outer interface, especially for compound jets with highly viscous cores, in which the outer interface may play an important role even though it is located very far from the core. Full numerical simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations confirm the predictions of the stability analysis.
