采用等离子体制动器主动控制0.9马赫喷嘴降低噪音

Localized arc filament plasma actuators were used to control an axisymmetric Mach 0.9 jet with a Reynolds number based on the nozzle exit diameter of 7:6
105. Eight actuators, distributed azimuthally inside the nozzle, near the nozzle exit, were used to excite various instabilities and azimuthal modes of the jet over a large Strouhal number range (StDF of 0.1 to 5.0). Time-resolved pressure measurements were used to investigate the development of
actuation perturbations in the jet, particle image velocimetry measurements were used to evaluate the control effects on the turbulence field, and far-field sound was measured to evaluate the control effects on the radiated acoustic field.The jet responded to the forcing over a large range of excitation Strouhal numbers with varying degrees. As expected,
the low Strouhal number seeded disturbances grew slowly, saturated farther downstream, and stayed saturated for a longer time before decaying gradually. The saturation and decay of the seeded perturbations moved farther upstream as their Strouhal number was increased. Seeded perturbations with higher azimuthal modes exhibited faster decay. Particle image velocimetry results showed that when exciting the jet’s preferred-mode instability at lower azimuthal modes, the jet potential core was shortened and the turbulent kinetic energy was increased significantly. At higher Strouhal numbers and higher azimuthal modes, forcing had less of an impact on the mean velocity and turbulent kinetic energy. Far-field acoustic results showed a significant noise increase (2 to 4 dB) when the jet is excited around the jet’s preferred-mode instability Strouhal number (StDF  0:2–0:5), in agreement with the results in the literature. Noise reduction of 0.5 to over 1.0 dB is observed over a large excitation Strouhal number range; this reduction seems to peak around StDF  1:5 to 2.0 at a 30-deg angle, but around StDF  3:0 to 3.5 at a 90-deg angle. Although forcing the jet with higher azimuthal modes is advantageous for noise mitigation at a 30-deg angle and lower Strouhal numbers, the effect is not as clear at higher forcing Strouhal numbers and at a 90-deg angle.
