In order to verify the influence of boundary layer transition on the aerodynamic characteristics of hypersonic vehicles
an improved
k-ω-γ
transition model was used to predict the boundary layer transition of the X-51A-like hypersonic vehicle. This study not only analyzed the effects of angle of attack and Reynolds number on the boundary layer transition
but also studied the effects of boundary layer transition on the aerodynamics and the inlet performance of the vehicle. It is found that boundary layer transition has little influence on the lift coefficient and pitching moment coefficient of the vehicle
but has a great effect on the drag coefficient. F
or the case studied
the drag coefficient predicted by the full laminar flow simulation is 20%~30% lower than that by the transition model. In addition
boundary layer transition can reduce the separation at the corner of the compression surface of the hypersonic vehicle forebody
decrease the Mach number of the throat section
and increase the pressure ratio. Current research results provide a technical reference for the design of control and propulsion systems of hypersonic vehicles
and show that the improved
k-ω-γ
transition mode has great potential in engineering applications.
