摘要
In order to get a deep insight of a submerged inlet on the plane surface, the integrated flow field of the inlet and fuselage has been numerically studied. The investigation is mainly focused on the formation of the total pressure distribution at the exit of the inlet, the structure of the inner flow and the effects of the boundary layer along the fuselage on the performance of the inlet. Moreover, in comparison with the experimental data at different angles of attack, yaws and mass flow ratios, the reliabilities of the computational fluid dynamics（CFD） studied are verified. Results indicate： （1） the CFD results agree well with the experiment results and the relative errors of the total pressure coefficient is less than 1% ; （2） at the inlet＇s exit, the contour of total pressure obtained by CFD is similar to the experiment result except the contour in the low total pressure zone in CFD is slightly larger; （3） the secondary flow at the cross section behave as two counter-rotating vortices. Along the flow direction, the fields influenced by the vortex pair transport downstream and expand to the whole section at the exit; （4） the total pressure loss at the exit of the submerged inlet can be divided into external loss and internal loss. Usually, the external loss is greater than the internal loss, and both decrease with the augment of the Mach number at the exit. In addition, when the angle of attack ranges from -2° to 8°, the total pressure coefficient ascends gradually, due to the reduction of the external loss caused by the less boundary layer flow captured and the invisible change of the internal loss.
