Abstract
The flowfield structure, heat flux distribution, and pressure fluctuations of the wall-mounted cylinder-induced hypersonic boundary-layer transition are investigated at a 10 deg angle of attack. Experiments are conducted in a Mach 6 low-noise wind tunnel using the nanotracer-based planar laser scattering (NPLS) technique, temperature-sensitive paints (TSP), and high-frequency pressure sensors. First, the streamwise and spanwise NPLS images, TSP results, and power spectral density results of isolated cylinders at different heights show that with the increase of the cylinder height [Formula: see text], the size of the separated region and the spanwise width of the horseshoe vortex increase, and the transition moves forward. Second, the flowfield structure and wall heat flux distribution around the streamwise cylinder arrays are investigated. The results demonstrate that the downstream cylinder will destroy the development of the hairpin vortex in the upstream cylinder wake but will expand the horseshoe vortex to both sides, increasing the influence area of the cylinder.
期刊介绍:
This Journal is devoted to the advancement of the science and technology of thermophysics and heat transfer through the dissemination of original research papers disclosing new technical knowledge and exploratory developments and applications based on new knowledge. The Journal publishes qualified papers that deal with the properties and mechanisms involved in thermal energy transfer and storage in gases, liquids, and solids or combinations thereof. These studies include aerothermodynamics; conductive, convective, radiative, and multiphase modes of heat transfer; micro- and nano-scale heat transfer; nonintrusive diagnostics; numerical and experimental techniques; plasma excitation and flow interactions; thermal systems; and thermophysical properties. Papers that review recent research developments in any of the prior topics are also solicited.
