简介:本文基于航行体超空泡理论和格兰威尔线型设计方法,设计了三种具有不同前部线型的航行体模型.并针对所设计的三种模型和具有锥形前部外型的航行体模型在西北工业大学水洞中进行了前部线形对超空泡生成影响的实验研究.结果表明:超空泡生成速度和空泡成生所需临界通气量与航行体的轴向斜率分布有关,模型表面斜率轴向分布曲线越平坦或变化率越小,越有利于提高空泡的生成速度、减少超空泡生成所需的临界通气量.实验数据显示文中设计的三种格兰威尔前部线型航行体与锥形前部外型航行体相比,生成超空泡所需临界通气量都有明显减小,空泡生成速度有明显提高.文章研究方法为降低超高速航行体超空泡生成所需的临界通气量,提高空泡的生成速度提供了一条技术途径和研究方法.
