Overview

  • A comparison of engineering level and full Navier-Stokes predictions of

flow-field heating conditions was made for a series of aerothermal tests performed at the Naval Air Warfare Center Air Breathing Engine and Aerothermal Test Facility, T-Range, in China Lake CA.

  • Thin skin calorimeters were used to quantify the aerothermal boundary

conditions imparted to a test fixture.

  • The engineering level analysis code ATAC3D, developed under an Army

SBIR, was used to derive the local boundary conditions.

  • The full Navier-Stokes computational fluid dynamics code OVERFLOW

was used to quantify the relative flow field and resulting heat fluxes for comparison to the engineering predictions and data

  • This presentation will discuss the analytic and experimental methods

utilized to determine boundary conditions and possible flowfield effects on a complex test fixture.

Predictions and Data Comparison

  • Why does ATAC3D provide good agreement for the

12 degree wedge calorimeter data but over predicts the thermal response for the flat configuration?

– Laminar versus Turbulent flow? – Flow separation? – Prandlt-Meyer expansion fan causing below ambient pressure distribution? – Need to assess engineering method for predicting heating

  • CFD was utilized to visualize the flowfield over the 2

configurations and provide a more rigorous characterization of the aerothermal environment

Summary

  • An aerothermal test series was conducted and calorimetry was

utilized to verify boundary conditions delivered by the NAWC T-Range Facility to a wedge test fixture

  • This effort is representative of the process which should be

used for all aerothermal test and evaluation efforts

– Quantify flight boundary conditions – Select appropriate aerothermal test facility/facilities – Design and analyze appropriate test fixture to ensure predictable environments are imparted to test specimens – Design and test calorimeters in position of interest – Verify predicted conditions with measured calorimeter data – Utilize CFD if flow fields are complex or uncertainties exist in aerothermal boundary conditions

slide-35
SLIDE 35

Summary Continued

  • Calorimeters

– Thin skin calorimeters provided accurate thermal response data for quantifying convective boundary conditions – Pressure gages provided verification of uniform flow for wedge configuration (were not integrated into flat test fixture)

  • Boundary Condition Predictions

– Wedge: ATAC3D provided reasonable agreement for 12 degree wedge configuration where angle change between the two wedges was small (15 degree to 12 degree) – Flat Plate: ATAC3D predictions over predicted the calorimeter data by approximately 45% – Overflow Code (CFD) provided detail predictions of flowfield variation

  • ver test fixture in agreement with measured data and verified reduced

ATAC3D boundary condition prediction were necessary – ATAC3D axisymmetric model for a cone/cylinder provided more realistic heat flux drops for the given angle changes suggesting confidence in the ATAC3D predictions for missile shapes – The ATAC3D 3-dimensional wedge model predictive techniques needs to be investigated and modified

Future Efforts

  • Verify/modify ATAC3D analytic method for predicting

aerothermal environments on wedges

  • Modify ATAC3D to support stagnation lines on cylinders

in cross-flow

  • Continue simplification of geometry builder for ATAC3D
  • Couple ATAC3D with CFD solutions for corrected edge

conditions in complex flow regimes

  • Continue development of material database interface for

ATAC3D

  • Provide guidance to T-Range customers on test fixture

requirements to ensure acceptable and predictable flow fields and aerothermal environments
