| الوصف: | Boundary Layer Ingestion (BLI) is a concept with the potential to reduce energy consumption needed for aircraft propulsion. For the fan this results in a need to work well in an environment of increased continuous distortion. The objective of this study is to increase the understanding of unsteady aerodynamic forces due to total pressure distortion in a BLI fan. This is done by using computational fluid dynamics to analyze a fan design intended for a BLI installation. Results include low subsonic to transonic operating speeds and distortion in a wide range of wave numbers. The forcing exhibits a significant dependency on the aeroacoustic cut-on/cut-off condition. This is in particular true at part speed where the normalized unsteady force rises sharply before dropping suddenly as the corrected speed or engine order increases. Unsteady pressure in the blade passage is observed to exhibit the same increase in level followed by a sudden drop once the cut-on limit is passed and undamped pressure waves propagating out from the blade row appear. The unsteady forces on the first three modes exhibit different sensitivities to the distortion wavelength but all are affected by the acoustic condition. By comparing results for the reference fan to a similar fan design with a higher blade count the cascade properties of the blade row are found to dominate the interaction. A result of this is that a higher blade count fan may be less affected by the distortion, and be less prone to propagate noise due to low engine order distortion. |
