To analyze the response of the wall pressure fluctuation in an isolator when the shock train is subjected to a periodic motion at a low frequency,the isolator experiment is conducted in a blow-down supersonic wind tunnel at free stream Mach number of 1.98 under asymmetric incoming flow.Experimental results show that:The isolator effectively isolates the periodic back pressure fluctuation from affecting upstream undisturbed flow;The wall pressure fluctuations are due to the propagation of wave fronts with the second acoustic mode,but they are subjected to an oscillating shock train in the most part of the shock oscillation region;The attenuation of wall pressure fluctuations on the lower wall with thick boundary layer accords with the exponential law,but it fluctuates on the upper wall with thin boundary layer in the shock oscillation region.
A new multi-phase active contour model is proposed for the image segmentation. It is a generalization of the C-V model with the following characteristics: (1) A key technique, called the technique of painting background (TPBG), is developed to remove the information of the background, which blocks the detection of weak boundaries in the object; (2) The two-phase level set is applied multiple times for getting the multi-phase segmentation model (n-1 times for the n-phase model, n〉1); (3) A scaling-based method is introduced to improve the basic model. Experimental results show that the proposed model is effective for detecting weak boundaries.
To simulate the actual flowfield at the exit of the supersonic/hypersonic inlet, a wind tunnel is designed to study the flow in the scramjet isolator under the asymmetric incoming flow. And compression fields in the isolator are investigated using wall static and pitot pressure measurements. Three incoming Mach numbers are considered as 1.5, 1.8 and 2. Results show that the increase of the asymmetry of the flow at the isolator entrance leads to the increase of the shock train length in the isolator for a given pressure ratio. Based on the analysis of the flow asymmetry effect at the isolator entrance on the shock train length, a modified correlation is proposed to calculate the length of the shock train. Predicted results of the proposed correlation are in good agreement with the experimental data.
