Abstract
The precooling air-breathing technique has become a study focus in the aerospace field. Research on the internal flow and heat-transfer mechanism of the precooler is important for design and optimization. A large-eddy simulation was used to study the aerodynamic and thermal characteristics in a micropipe of the hypersonic engine precooler with supercritical methane as coolant and fuel. Under the effect of buoyancy, the high-temperature and low-density fluid near the wall in the circumferential direction gradually accumulate to the top wall. The accumulation of low-density fluid enhances the thermal acceleration effect at the top wall, which intensifies the local turbulent relaminarization and forms an M-shaped velocity distribution, resulting in the weakening of the heat transfer. On the other hand, the high-density fluid gathers to the bottom wall under the influence of gravity, the local thermal acceleration effect is weakened, and the flow heat transfer is enhanced. The influence of the relationship between the turbulent burst and the turbulent heat transfer under the effect of buoyancy is analyzed. It is found that the low-speed ejection events and high-speed sweep events are strengthened at the bottom wall, especially the low-speed ejection. However, the occurrence of these events at the top wall is restrained to a certain extent.
