摘要

Controlling a supersonic jet is crucial for improving aircraft performance by reducing aeroacoustic noise, enhancing combustion efficiency, and boosting stealth capabilities. This study investigates the impact of the location of V-notch vortex generators in controlling supersonic jets from an asymmetric nozzle. Quantitative and qualitative investigations were conducted using centerline and radial pressure measurements, along with Schlieren flow visualizations. Results indicate that V-notch vortex generators effectively reduce the length of the supersonic jet and enhance mixing across various conditions, including under-expansion, correct expansion, and over-expansion. Additionally, jets controlled by V-notch generators exhibit a highly uniform radial pressure distribution and a substantially higher spreading rate. Notably, the V-notch design demonstrates maximum effectiveness in jet mixing when positioned along the shorter axis of the asymmetric jet, rather than the longer axis.
