  • 隨著戰爭型態演變,戰場上的飛行載具也逐漸朝著匿蹤化以及無人化的方向演進,統稱為無人戰鬥飛行載具(UCAV)。北約組織所提出的SACCON構型,便是順應此趨勢所催生的研究產物。在本實驗室幾位學長姐的研究中,已經初步了解SACCON構型在低雷諾數情形下的基本流場結構。儘管如此,在流場可視化的結果中,仍然有著與更高雷諾數的研究文獻中有所出入的部分。再者,近期的俄烏戰爭中,飛行載具亦出現小型化的趨勢,因此對於UCAV的研究,必須有著大範圍雷諾數跨度的現象探討。本研究首先必須進一步釐清在前人的研究中所遺留下來的問題。對SACCON的基本流場有更深入的了解後,便會進一部探討雷諾數效應對於整個SACCON構型之渦流系統狀態演變之影響。本研究在循環式水槽以及開放式風洞中使用多種流場可視化方法,如油膜法、染液注射法以及點墨法,試圖將各個雷諾數下的流場清晰呈現以便分析。在歸仁低速開放式風洞中,亦進行壓力係數量測的實驗,藉由更廣的壓力孔分佈,試圖看到更細微的流場現象。
    本研究主要使用數個大小不同的SACCON模型進行實驗,以及一個Delta-S模型來和SACCON的油膜可視化實驗對比。對比的結果顯示,SACCON模型上銳形翼前緣以及鈍形翼前緣交界的凹陷處,會對於翼表上翼展方向的附著流以及inner vortex產生增強作用,也藉由此實驗進一步確認inner vortex是由翼前緣分離的剪切層、翼展方向的附著流以及上游apex vortex的渦量傳遞而形成。後續的流場可視化實驗以及壓力量測實驗所得到的結果顯示,SACCON構型在低雷諾數下的流場拓撲結構和高雷諾數的文獻有著很大的差異。在過往以及本次實驗中所看到的inner vortex現象,與文獻中的thickness vortex現象有著很大的不同。在過去視流實驗裡,inner vortex一度被認為與thickness vortex是相同現象,但在本次壓力量測實驗中,隨著雷諾數升高,inner vortex又會逐漸消失。綜上所述,本研究透過在不同數量級的雷諾數下進行實驗,確立了SACCON構型在低雷諾數下的重要流場特徵。隨著雷諾數升高,象徵低雷諾數流場特徵的inner vortex現象會趨於不明顯,意味著當雷諾數改變,也會深遠地影響SACCON上翼面渦流狀態演變(State Switch)以及參與其中的流場結構。

    As the pattern of modern warfare keep evolving, the airborne vehicles on the battlefield are gradually evolving towards stealth and unmanned capabilities, which is collectively referred to as Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles (UCAVs). The SACCON configuration proposed by the NATO organization is an outcome that aligns with this emerging trend. While several research that provide preliminary understanding about the SACCON flow topology under low Reynolds number has been done in our lab previously, some unknown discrepancies remain when compared to the literature of higher Reynolds numbers. Furthermore, in the recent Russia-Ukraine conflict, there has also been a trend towards downsizing of airborne vehicles. As a result, aerodynamic research on UCAVs must involve a comprehensive investigation into a wide range of Reynolds numbers. The first step of this research is to clarify the questions remain previously. After having a better understanding of basic SACCON flow characteristic, Reynolds number effect on the state switch of vortex system of SACCON will be investigated. In this research, various visualization techniques such as oil flow, dye injection as well as ink dot is applied to bring a clearer picture of flow structure under a range of Reynolds number. For the low-speed open type wind tunnel in ASTRC, pressure coefficient measurement is also conducted. Through a wider distribution of pressure taps, more detailed phenomena on SACCON are expected to be depicted.
    In the experiment, several SACCON models with different sizes is applied, as well as a Delta-S model in comparison with the oil-flow result of SACCON. The outcome of the comparison indicates that the concave topology at the junction between sharp and blunt leading-edge section has a strengthening effect to the spanwise component of the attached flow as well as the inner vortex. Furthermore, we finally confirm that the formation of inner vortex is attributed to the interaction between the separated shear layer, the spanwise attached crossflow as well as the vorticity transportation from the apex vortex. The following flow visualization and pressure coefficient measurement all indicate a significant difference of the SACCON flow topology between low Reynolds number (this research) and high Reynolds number (literature). The inner vortex we saw in the experiment has a huge difference from the thickness vortex mentioned in the literature, which was once viewed as the same phenomena in the past. From the result of pressure coefficient measurement, the pressure coefficient variation that represent the inner vortex structure will be gradually suppressed as Reynolds number increased to a higher level. In summary, a clearer picture of the SACCON flow characteristic under low Reynolds number has been established in this research. The inner vortex structure which represents the low Reynolds number flow characteristic will be gradually suppressed as Reynolds number increases. In other words, changes in Reynolds number significantly affect the state switch progress above SACCON surface as well as the flow structures involved.
