Description:
The flow field within an unsteady, two-dimensional inlet is studied numerically, using a two dimensional Navier Stokes and a one-dimensional inviscid model. Unsteadiness is introduced by varying the outflow pressure boundary condition. The cases considered include outflow pressure variations which were a single pressure pulse, a rapid increase and a sine function. The amplitude of the imposed exit plane pressure disturbance varied between 1 percent and 20 percent of the mean exit pressure. At the higher levels of pressure fluctuation, the viscous flow field results bore little resemblance to the inviscid ones. The viscous solution included such phenomena as shock trains and bifurcating separation pockets. The induced velocity at the outflow plane predicted by the viscous model differs significantly from accoustical theory or small perturbation results.
