Abstract
There are multiple unsteady wave system interactions such as shock waves, expansion waves, and reflection, transmission, and intersection of the contact surface inside a shock tube. Studying the law of unsteady wave system interaction has important guiding significance for the design of gas wave equipment. This paper proposes a solution method for the interaction law of unsteady wave systems based on real gas equation of state (EoS) and applies it to shock tubes. The results show that the temperature maximum error between the code based on ideal gas EoS and simulation results is 3.64%, and the error of wave velocity results is between 2.99% and 18.27%. While the error of temperature results between code based on real gas EoS and simulation is not exceed 3%. More importantly, the wave velocity calculated by the code based on real gas EoS is pretty consistent with the simulation results. The code based on the real gas model can help to solve the problem of offset design point. Research has also shown that as pressure and temperature gradually increase, the deviation between ideal and real gases increases, which also proves that the influence of real gas effects is becoming increasingly significant.
