Study on heat reduction and lift-to-drag ratio increase of two-dimensional wedge-shaped waverider blunt leading edges and high pressure capture wing[1] combined configuration

Abstract

In this paper, the aerodynamic and aerothermal performance of the simplified two-dimensional wedge-shaped waverider bluntness leading edge and high pressure capture wing(HCW) combined configuration in a hypersonic continuous flow basin is numerically simulated by the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method, the flow field structure of the model is analyzed, and the law of anti-thermal rise is revealed. The main contents of the study include the surface heat flux and lift-drag ratio characteristics of the bluntness leading edge under different bluntness radii, the lift-to-drag ratio, and surface heat flux characteristics of the composite configuration of the bluntness leading edge and the high pressure capture wing under different bluntness radius. Within the scope of the study: 1. The larger the bluntness radius is, the more effective it is to reduce the heat flux of the head. When the bluntness radius is 2mm, the decrease is about 82.5%;2. The larger the bluntness radius is, the more serious the lift-drag ratio decreases. When the bluntness radius is 2mm, the lift-drag ratio decreases by about 72.4%;3. The combined configuration of the bluntness leading edge and the high pressure capture wing can effectively reduce the head heat flux under the premise of ensuring a certain lift-drag ratio. The optimal bluntness radius is 1mm, the head heat flux decreases by about 76% and the lift-drag ratio only decreases by 24%.
