Abstract
Suppose that curved surface consists of tiny polylines. Two 2-D inlets with curved surfaces formed by equal compression angles of the micro-element segments and a slight increase in the compression angle of the micro-element segments are designed respectively. The numerical simulation method is used to compare the performance of two curved surface 2-D inlets with the reference three-wedge compression 2-D inlet. Select NASA classic test data, in order to determine the turbulence model and calculation method chosen by the numerical simulation Fluent software. Numerical simulation results show: the pressure ratio of the curved compression system at the place corresponding to the wedge compression second shock wave is only 0.55 of the wedge compression pressure ratio, which is much smaller than the critical pressure ratio of the boundary layer separation; at design point, the performance of three inlets is similar; at non-design points, the 2-D inlets with the curved surface have a higher flow coefficient and total pressure recovery coefficient. The configuration of the small segments compression angles is the key to the performance of the curved surface compression two-dimensional inlet.
