Resumo: | This work is devoted to the visualization and characterization of twin air jet flow when impinging vertically to a solid surface, which is important to understand the phenomenon relevant to Vertical/Short Take-Of and Landing (V/STOL) type of aircraft when they are operating on short distances from the ground, landing or taking-off, and could be helpful to improve the performance and stability of this kind of aircrafts. The major concern of this work is characterizing the fountain upwash region, which is a distinctive fan-shape flow that is formed on the collision region. The parameters analysed on this work are the separation distance between the jets and the jet height. Have been observed significant changes in the flow pattern and properties in the fountain upwash region due to the changes in the parameter studied. To be possible the realization of this work an experimental facility has been built. The facility supports an adjustable mechanical system which can accommodate twin stainless steel barrels with different diameters, which are the jets. Within this mechanical system, the barrels horizontal distance and height can be independently adjusted. The working fluid is the air, and to be possible the flow visualization a seeding generator have been projected and built. The flow visualization has been supported by an algorithm developed on the “Image Processing toolbox of Matlab” software, where have been made the post processing of the images. |

Estes fenómenos estão associados com aeronaves de descolagem e aterragem vertical ou curta (V/STOL – vertical/short take-of and landing). Particularmente, interessa a caracterização da região conhecida como “fountain upwash”, que é uma forma característica do escoamento que se forma na região da colisão. Os parâmetros analisados neste trabalho foram a distância horizontal entre os jactos e a altura destes à superfície de impacto. Foram observados diferenças significativas no padrão e propriedades do escoamento na região de “fountain upwash” devido à variação dos parâmetros em estudo. Para a realização deste estudo foi construída uma instalação experimental. A instalação é ajustável mecanicamente, contendo dois tubos de aço, com diâmetro variável. O sistema mecânico permite o ajustamento, independentemente, a distância horizontal entre os jactos e a altura dos mesmos. Como neste trabalho se vai trabalhar com ar, para ser possível visualizar o escoamento é necessário marcar o escoamento. Nesse sentido foi desenvolvido um gerador de “seeding”. Para uma melhor e mais precisa visualização do escoamento foi desenvolvido um algoritmo no “Matlab” usando “Image Processing toolbox”, onde as imagens captadas foram pós processadas.Universidade da Beira InteriorBarata, Jorge Manuel MartinsSilva, André Resende Rodrigues dauBibliorumMeireles, Pedro M.
