The Effect of Air Bleed on the Heat Transfer and Pressure Distribution on 30 Conical Flares at a Mach Number of 6.8

The effect of a boundary-layer bleed at the start of a 30 deg half-angle flare upon the shape of the flow boundaries, the pressure distribution on the flare, and the heat transfer to the flare was studied at a Mach number of 6.8. The forebody was an ogive cylinder. Test Reynolds numbers, based on forebody length, ranged from 1 x 10(exp 6) to 7.4 x 10(exp 6). Schlieren photographs showed the effect produced upon the flow boundaries by varying the dimensions of the bleed in both the radial and axial directions and by blunting the lip at the leading edge of the flare. The heat transfer and pressure distribution on the flare were correlated with the shape and nature of the flow boundaries.

Asymmetric Base-Bleed Effect on Aerospike Plume-Induced Base-Heating Environment During Power-Pack Out

A computational heat transfer design methodology was developed to study tbe dual-engine linear aerospike plume-induced base-heating environment during one power-pack out, in ascent flight. It includes a three-dimensional, finite volume, viscous, chemically reacting, and pressure-based computational fluid dynamics formulation, a special base-bleed boundary condition, and a three-dimensional, finite volume, and spectral-line-based weighted-sum-of-gray-gases absorption computational radiation heat transfer formulation. A separate radiation model was used for diagnostic purposes. The computational methodology was systematically benchmarked. in this study, near-base radiative heat fluxes were computed, and they compared well with those measured during static linear aerospike engine tests. The base-heating environment of 18 trajectory points secected from three power-pack out scenarios was computed. The computed asymmetric base-heating physics were analyzed. The power-pack out condition has the most impact on convective base heating when it happens early in flight. The soume of its impact comes from the asymmetric and reduced base bleed.

In this study, near-base radiative heat fluxes were computed, and they compared well with those measured during static linear aerospike engine tests. The base-heating environment of 18 trajectory points selected from three power-pack out scenarios was computed. The computed asymmetric base-heating physics were analyzed. The power-pack out condition has the most impact on convective base heating when it happens early in flight. The source of its impact comes from the asymmetric and reduced base bleed.
