Abstract

To solve the modeling problem of altitude ground test facility (AGTF) exhaust systems, which is caused by nonlinearity along the gas path and the difficulty of ejection factor calculation, a multi-cavity iterative modeling method is presented. The components of exhaust systems, such as the exhaust diffuser and cooler, are built with a series of volumes. It overcomes the disadvantage that traditional lumped-parameter models have, whereby they cannot calculate the dynamic parameters along the gas path. The exhaust system model is built with an iterative method based on multi-cavity components, and simulations are carried out under experimental conditions. The simulation results show that the maximum error of pressure is 2 kPa in the steady state and less than 6 kPa in the transient process compared with experimental data. Closed-loop simulations are also carried out to further verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the multi-cavity iterative exhaust system modeling method.
