Abstract
The launch vehicle will experience extreme acoustic environment at lift-off, which will cause the invalidation and destruction of the aerospace equipment, and reducing noise is of great significance for improving launch safety. In this paper, the numerical simulation of gas–liquid two-phase flow and its acoustic field is carried out, and the flow field is simulated by the discrete phase model (DPM), second-order Roe format, Scale-Adaptive Simulation (SAS) and three-dimensional Navier–Stokes. Based on the analysis of the flow field, the acoustic analogy integration method (FW-H) is used to predict the jet noise at the observation position. The influence of the water different injection angles and mass flow rate ratios are studied, and the results show that water injection not only reduces the temperature, velocity and vorticity at the gas–liquid interface, and the temperature at the bottom of the jet deflector, it also significantly reduces the jet noise. The total sound pressure level can be reduced to 6.92 dB by appropriate selection of the water injection angles and water injection mass flow rates. The numerical method established in this paper provides a useful tool for the design and analysis of water injection noise reduction for high-thrust multi-nozzle launch vehicle.
