The influence of the flow state on the performance of the ejector is always a hot and difficult problem in the design of the ejector. Aiming at an integrated low-pressure cavity and ejector structure, this paper uses numerical simulation method to analyze the flow field characteristics of the ejector under the conditions of zero injection, secondary flow injection and secondary exothermic reaction flow injection. The relationship between the position of the first oblique shock and the outlet back pressure is given. The flow field structure and start-up process of the system in the cold secondary flow state are analyzed. Then, considering the exothermic reaction flow, the influence of the residual exothermic reaction in the ejector on the start-up performance of the system is analyzed. The results show that the reverse pressure gradient caused by residual exothermic reaction is the main factor affecting the start-up performance of the system.
Efficient cleaning of pollutants on the optical lens surface is a very important and urgent research topic in the field of laser processing. Therefore, based on the free jet theory of fluid dynamics, the flow field characteristics of the optical system lens are theoretically analyzed and numerically simulated, and the flow field distribution of the lens surface and far field is given. And then, combined with the existing solid particle pollutants adhesion type, influence law and calculation model, the adhesion force of solid particles with different diameters is calculated quantitatively. According to the gas dynamic pressure distribution on the surface of optical elements, the effectiveness of solid particle blowing on the surface of optical elements is analyzed and evaluated. Finally, according to the secondary dust phenomenon of mirror free jet purging, the jet outlet size, downstream collection port size and jet velocity that affect the flow field distribution characteristics of the lens surface are optimized. Finally, a self-priming mirror jet purging structure without backflow is given, which effectively eliminates the secondary dust phenomenon caused by mirror purging.
In order to explore the laser propagation influence of thermal blooming effect of pipe flow and to analysis the influencing factors, scaling law theoretical analysis of the thermal blooming effects in pipe flow are carry out in detail based on the optical path difference caused by thermal blooming effects in pipe flow. Firstly, by solving the energy coupling equation of laser beam propagation, the temperature of the flow is obtained, and then the optical path difference caused by the thermal blooming is deduced. Through the analysis of the influence of pipe size, flow field and laser parameters on the optical path difference, energy scaling parameters Ne=nTαLPR2/(ρεCpπR02) and geometric scaling parameters Nc=νR2/(εL) of thermal blooming for the pipe flow are derived. Secondly, for the direct solution method, the energy coupled equations have analytic solutions only for the straight tube with Gauss beam. Considering the limitation of directly solving the coupled equations, the dimensionless analysis method is adopted, the analysis is also based on the change of optical path difference, same scaling parameters for the pipe flow thermal blooming are derived, which makes energy scaling parameters Ne and geometric scaling parameters Nc have good universality. The research results indicate that when the laser power and the laser beam diameter are changed, thermal blooming effects of the pipeline axial flow caused by optical path difference will not change, as long as you keep energy scaling parameters constant. When diameter or length of the pipe changes, just keep the geometric scaling parameters constant, the pipeline axial flow gas thermal blooming effects caused by optical path difference distribution will not change. That is to say, when the pipe size and laser parameters change, if keeping two scaling parameters with constant, the pipeline axial flow thermal blooming effects caused by the optical path difference will not change. Therefore, the energy scaling parameters and the geometric scaling parameters can really describe the gas thermal blooming effect in the axial pipe flow. These conclusions can give a good reference for the construction of the thermal blooming test system of laser system. Contrasted with the thermal blooming scaling parameters of the Bradley-Hermann distortion number ND and Fresnel number NF, which were derived based on the change of far field beam intensity distortion, the scaling parameters of pipe flow thermal blooming deduced from the optical path deference variation are very suitable for the optical system with short laser propagation distance, large Fresnel number and obviously changed optical path deference.
In order to weaken the chemical laser exhaust gas influence of the optical transmission, a vent pipe is advised to emissions gas to the outside of the optical transmission area. Based on a variety of exhaust pipe design, a flow field characteristic of the pipe is carried out by numerical simulation and analysis in detail. The research results show that for uniform deflating exhaust pipe, although the pipeline structure is cyclical and convenient for engineering implementation, but there is a phenomenon of air reflows at the pipeline entrance slit which can be deduced from the numerical simulation results. So, this type of pipeline structure does not guarantee seal. For the design scheme of putting the pipeline contract part at the end of the exhaust pipe, or using the method of local area or tail contraction, numerical simulation results show that backflow phenomenon still exists at the pipeline entrance slit. Preliminary analysis indicates that the contraction of pipe would result in higher static pressure near the wall for the low speed flow field, so as to produce counter pressure gradient at the entrance slit. In order to eliminate backflow phenomenon at the pipe entrance slit, concerned with the pipeline type of radial size increase gradually along the flow, flow field property in the pipe is analyzed in detail by numerical simulation methods. Numerical simulation results indicate that there is not reflow phenomenon at entrance slit of the dilated duct. However the cold air inhaled in the slit which makes the temperature of the channel wall is lower than the center temperature. Therefore, this kind of pipeline structure can not only prevent the leak of the gas, but also reduce the wall temperature. In addition, compared with the straight pipe connection way, dilated pipe structure also has periodic structure, which can facilitate system integration installation.
For the thermal blooming of the beam path indoor, solving the coupling equations of optical field and fluid field
completely is a meaningful and important subject. In this paper a numerical emulation platform for solving the coupling
equations was established. The laser beam coupled with the fluid field by the method of User Defined Function which
was offered by the CFD software. Thermal blooming effects in the beam path indoor of the line pipe are modeled by the
established numerical emulation platform. In order to testify the rightness of the numerical emulation results, steady-state
thermal blooming effects in the axial pipe flow are calculated by the theoretical methods, and corresponding experiments
are also carried out. The results indicate that the numerical emulation platform is creditable in simulating the thermal
blooming of axial pipe flow.
The effect of beacon Anisoplanatism needs to be considered in analyzing the error of the adaptive optical system.
Therefore, thermal blooming anisoplanatic effect of the Gaussian beam is analyzed numerically and theoretically. Wavefront
distortion of the Gaussian beam caused by thermal blooming anisoplanatic effect is expanded by the Zernike
polynomials. The Zernike coefficient and the fitting error are obtained by numerical calculations. The comparisons
between the Zernike coefficients indicate that the defocus item is the most important to the angular anisoplanatic error.
Based on the Wave-front distortion caused by the thermal blooming angular anisoplanatic effect, the defocus coefficient
of the Zernike polynomials is obtained theoretically. The result of the angular anisoplanatic error calculated by
theoretical formula is consistent with the outcome of the numerical calculation, and the result also indicates that the
angular anisoplanatic error is the function of the caliber size and varies as the square of the anisoplanatic angle. The
square relation of angle anisoplanatism is consistent with the result obtained by the turbulence angular anisoplanatic
effect.
