Research on Drag Reduction and Heat Prevention of Hypersonic Vehicle Combined Model with Reverse Jet and Slot Blowing

A novel strategy combining reverse jet with slotted blowing is proposed in this paper, and two-dimensional (RANS) is used to numerically investigate the flow characteristics of a reverse jet. The numerical results show the jet from the aircraft head ejects backward, pushing the shock away and reducing aerodynamic heating and shock wave resistance. The jet from the middle slot ejects backward and the effective solution reduces the viscous resistance of the fuselage. This new strategy not only further reduces the total resistance but also provides good thermal protection for the aircraft. Compared with the aircraft model, the stagnation point temperature and resistance are reduced by 25.0% and 28.0%, respectively, with the addition of multiple jets.
