Experiments and mathematical simulation of plate distortion simulators
Abstract
A numerical model is described for the flowfield around plates used in plate distortion simulators. Attention is given to the direct problem, the flow behind the plates, and the inverse problem, the sizes and locations of plates that will generate the flowfield defined by the simulation. The method is shown to allow calculation of the Fourier coefficients of the circumferential pressure distribution, a value for the DC60 term, and the total pressure recovery contour. Comparisons are offered between the calculated values and experimentally obtained values measured with a rake, and good agreement is demonstrated.
