Abstract
On the basis of the overall structure design and aerodynamic calculation of the annular low-speed wind tunnel, this paper uses the CFD numerical simulation technique to study the influence of the contraction curve form, the contraction ratio and the open/closed loop form of the test section on the flow field quality of the wind tunnel test section, and then gives the three-dimensional geometric model and the numerical simulation results. It is found that the best flow field quality can be obtained by using the bicubic curve, the contraction ratio of 10.24 and the closed loop form of the test section under the same fan condition. The three-dimensional modeling method is adopted in this paper, which can obtain more accurate numerical simulation result than the two-dimensional modeling method. Thus, the numerical simulation result provides a solid theoretical basis for the design and construction of the actual low-speed wind tunnel.
