Formation of liquid cone jet dependent on rise time of driving voltage

This paper reports on transient dynamics of electrospray driven by high step voltage and its dependence on voltage rise time. Three rise times (50 ns, 1.8 μs, and 400 μs) were used to compare influence on liquid dynamics. It was found that, when the applied voltage exceeds a certain level, minute differences in voltage rise time significantly affect jet formation time. A rise time of 50 ns accelerates the jet ejection by about 20% compared with other rise times. These results indicate that optimization of rise time may enable drastic improvement of controllability of drop-on-demand electrospray.     

一种弹体入水冲击波阴影成像可视化系统及其试验研究

扩大成像视野对于开展充水容器中弹体入水冲击波传播及弥散方面的可视化研究具有重要的实际意义。阴影成像技术适用于大视野实验,且对流场冲击波和扰动的可视化研究具有简单性和通用性,其中直接阴影成像最为简单,但可靠点光源的缺乏是阻碍其发展应用的瓶颈。因此基于国产短弧氙灯管,自制了短弧氙灯点光源,根据阴影成像原理,设计出一种弹体入水冲击波阴影成像可视化系统,详细介绍了其组成和运行原理。利用该系统对高速弹体入水进行了试验研究,获得了弹体入水冲击波的阴影成像和冲击波信号的压力时程曲线,通过阴影成像和冲击波信号相结合分析了弹体入水冲击波的传播特性,并进行了理论验证。结果表明:该弹体入水冲击波阴影成像可视化系统具有可靠性和设计的合理性。弹体高速入水后,初始冲击波的强度最大,随着冲击波的传播,冲击波强度逐渐降低,水中冲击波的传播速度不断降低,球形冲击波的半径逐渐增大。

利用激波管装置及马赫数为1.27的弱入射激波实验研究了SF6非均匀流场的R-M不稳定性。Air/SF6初始正弦界面由厚度为0.5μm的薄膜相隔得到,由阴影方法记录界面演化过程。实验结果表明:由于不稳定性,重流体(SF6)向轻流体(Air)演化成"尖钉"结构,而轻流体演化为"气泡"结构;由于界面切向速度差的Kelvin-Helmholtz不稳定性,"尖钉"头部翻转成蘑菇头形状;由于流场密度分布不均,低密度区流场扰动增长较快,扰动振幅发展的实验结果与PPM数值计算的结果较吻合。     

Effect of pressure on the performance of plasma synthetic jet actuator

The effects of the ambient air pressure level on the performance of plasma synthetic jet actuator have been investigated through electrical and optical diagnostics.Pressures from 1 atm down to 0.1 atm were tested with a 10 Hz excitation.The discharge measurement demonstrates that there is a voltage range to make the actuator work reliably.Higher pressure level needs a higher breakdown voltage,and a higher discharge current and energy deposition are produced.But when the actuator works with the maximum breakdown voltage,the fraction of the initial capacitor energy delivered to the arc is almost invariable.This preliminary study also confirms the effectiveness of the plasma synthetic jet at low pressure.Indeed,the maximum velocities of the precursor shock and the plasma jet induced by the actuator with maximum breakdown voltage are independent of the ambient pressure level;reach about 530 and 460 m/s respectively.The mass flux of the plasma jet increases with ambient pressure increasing,but the strength of the precursor shock presents a local maximum at 0.6 atm.     

用高速阴影技术研究K9玻璃中的失效波

用高速阴影摄影技术研究了爆轰加载下K9玻璃样品中波的传播和压缩区内损伤破坏的物理图象和规律。实验中观测到冲击波阵面后有一个移动速度为 2 .1～ 2 .2mm/ s的黑色阴影区边界 ,即失效波 (Fail urewave) ;实验发现只有当冲击载荷接近材料的HEL时 ,在冲击波和失效波之间的区域才有少量的微裂纹成核和长大 ,而在冲击载荷较低时却没有观察到 ;同时实验中观测到失效波萌生于被撞击面 ,并在两块玻璃的交界面上观测到失效波的再生。这些结果表明失效波的产生基本与冲击相变无关 ,主要与玻璃样品表面的初始损伤有关 ,换言之 ,失效波是玻璃样品表面微裂纹在冲击波作用下失稳扩展造成的。

空气中单个激光等离子体通道的形成条件

利用皮秒和飞秒激光研究了激光在空气中聚焦产生单个等离子体通道的条件.研究发现，能量为8—12mJ皮秒激光被焦距为15cm的透镜聚焦后，可以产生较为稳定的单个通道.通过横向纵向阴影成像分析发现，通道的管壁对聚焦产生的自发光具有箍缩作用，而通道内部却有利于光的传输.同时还发现，当采用短焦距透镜时，能量低于10mJ的飞秒激光在空气中较易形成单个等离子通道. 关键词： 等离子体通道 皮秒激光 飞秒激光 阴影成像     

Effects of the gas phase molecular weight and bubble size on effervescent atomization

The effervescent atomization from an industrial Coker feed nozzle is compared for two different gas densities (air and mixed gas of 81.4 vol.% helium/18.6 vol.% nitrogen) at equivalent operating temperatures. The application is to observe the similarity of lab tests using air at 20 °C to the industrial process using steam at 300-400 °C. The effects of operating conditions, such as gas to liquid mass ratio, mixing pressure and void fraction on the flow regime, bubble size, and droplet size distribution were also examined in this study. The experiments were performed using mixtures of water with air or mixed gas, which resulted in gas to liquid mass ratios ranging from 1% to 4%.Stroboscopic back scattered imagery (SBSI) indicates that the average bubble size inside the nozzle conduit is similar when air and water are used as the process fluids, when compared to the case when mixed gas and water are used as the process fluids. Under similar conditions, the Phase Doppler Particle Anemometer (PDPA) data indicate that the droplet size in the spray is similar when using either mixed gas or air as the atomization gas.Experimental results obtained by high-speed video shadowgraphy (HSVS) indicate that the flow pattern inside the nozzle feeding conduit was slug flow with a tendency to attain annular flow with increased air to liquid mass ratios. Thus, from the experimental results it is evident that the smaller molecular weight of the mixed gas versus air (8.4 versus 29) does not significantly reduce the bubble (<±10% difference) and droplet size (<±1.5% difference), indicating a weak dependence of the gas phase density on two-phase atomization. This confirms that laboratory experiments on effervescent nozzles using air have reliable similarity to systems that use high temperature steam for the gas phase.     

液-液两相液层间传质过程的Rayleigh-Bénard-Marangoni对流特性

传质引发的Rayleigh-Bénard-Marangoni对流(RBM对流)对化工传递过程有着显著影响.但是,已有的相关研究多集中于气-液体系,并且有限的针对液-液体系的相关研究尚缺乏对RBM对流演化及其引发的界面扰动行为的深入分析.因此,本文基于阴影法设计搭建了竖直狭缝内液-液两相液层间传质过程的RBM对流特性可视化实验平台,并实验观测了水-甲苯-丙酮三元体系中丙酮组分扩散传质时出现的RBM对流结构以及其向下层水相主体的发展演变过程,探讨了水相丙酮初始浓度、甲苯相丙酮初始浓度以及甲苯层厚度对RBM对流特性和液-液界面形貌的影响.研究表明:在Rayleigh-Taylor不稳定性作用下,水相上层密度(重力)分层"界面"下凸沉降形成波浪形丘状"界面",并随着"界面"处密度与压力失调的加剧而演变成羽状流;因羽流区"界面"不同浓度梯度引起的传质特性差异,羽状流又可以演变成弱羽状流和强羽状流两种形态;当丙酮浓度梯度增大到一定程度后,近界面处短时间内产生大量RBM对流结构,且结构间相互影响增强而聚并成对流团,并随着传质过程的进行,逐渐演变成独立的强羽状流; RBM对流强度与上下液层丙酮浓度梯度大小呈正相关关系,且液-液界面粗糙度及其非稳态波动随着丙酮浓度梯度的增加而增大.
