Abstract

Three-dimensional two-phase flow in the typical double downside 90°afterburning chamber of boron based ducted rocket is numerically simulated by means of Realizable turbulence model, one-step eddy-dissipation combustion mode1 and the ignition and combustion mode of boron particles of KING with considering the film moving effect in the high-speed flow. The results show that co-swirl and counter-swirl air in the double side of inlet enters into afterburning chamber to make mixture of air and gas more fully and combustion efficiency increases with the increase of swirl number. Boron particles and total combustion efficiency with co-swirl is higher than counter-swirl when the swirl number is less than 0.179. On the contrary, the counter-swirl is higher than co-swirl when the swirl number greater than 0.385, the co-swirl is balance to the counter-swirl when the swirl number is about 0.2; the ignition time of boron particles is reduced with swirling air, its minimum can be attained when swirl number is 0.385.
