THE AEROACOUSTICS AND AERODYNAMICS OF HIGH-SPEED COANDA DEVICES, PART 1 - CONVENTIONAL ARRANGEMENT OF EXIT NOZZLE AND SURFACE

摘要

The literature on high-speed Coanda flows and its applications is reviewed. The lack of basic information for design engineers is noted. The present paper is based on an investigation of the aeroacoustics and aerodynamics of the high-speed Coanda flow that is formed when a supersonic jet issues from a radial nozzle and adheres to a tulip-shaped body of revolution. Schlieren and other flow visualization techniques together with theoretical methods are used to reveal the various features of this complex flow field. The acoustic characteristics were obtained from measurements with an array of microphones in an anechoic chamber. The emphasis is placed on those features of the aerodynamics and aeroacoustics which may be of general interest. (C) 1997 Academic Press Limited. [References: 45]
