In order to investigate the mechanism of flow separation control in conical diffuser by vortex generator jets (VGJs) method, numerical simulations were conducted to discuss the effect of VGJs with different parameters on flow control. The aerodynamic performance in conical diffuser with angle of 14° was tested and analyzed based on Shear-Stress-Transport (SST) simulation. The flow charts at several sections were analyzed, illuminating the formation of complex vortices. Moreover, the effects of 5 VGJs parameters on the diffuser were analyzed by orthogonal analysis. It was shown that the number of jets and the pitch angle of jet showed more profound influence on the flow control by VGJs.

AbstractA numerical study on the performance of synthetic jet for flow separation control on a high-speed compressor stator vane is performed. Four control schemes including full-span and part-span configurations are investigated at both design and off-design conditions. Results indicate that both full-span and part-span schemes could effectively delay flow separation and reduce total pressure loss for the compressor stator vane, the adaptability of the flow control under off-design conditions is also validated. Within the investigated incidence range, the full-span configuration is able to gain the most significant performance improvement, by which a maximum loss reduction of 23.8 % is obtained at i=2 deg. The part-span configuration could reorganize the vortex structures more efficiently and cut off the interaction between the ring-like vortex and the passage vortex, thus improving its performance in the corner region. In terms of flow control efficiency, the part-span configurations turn out to be more superior, where the highest control efficiency of 614.0 % is achieved at i=0 deg with the total height of the actuator being 40 %H. The flow control efficiency for all the schemes is higher than 100 % within the whole operating range, demonstrating a promising prospect for the application of synthetic jet in axial compressors.
