Considerations of some critical ejector problems
Some aspects of ejector design and application, including, three dimensional effects and cross flow effects are presented
Jet-diffuser Ejector - Attached Nozzle Design
Attached primary nozzles were developed to replace the detached nozzles of jet-diffuser ejectors. Slotted primary nozzles located at the inlet lip and injecting fluid normal to the thrust axis, and rotating the fluid into the thrust direction using the Coanda Effect were investigated. Experiments indicated excessive skin friction or momentum cancellation due to impingement of opposing jets resulted in performance degradation. This indicated a desirability for location and orientation of the injection point at positions removed from the immediate vicinity of the inlet surface, and at an acute angle with respect to the thrust axis. Various nozzle designs were tested over a range of positions and orientations. The problems of aircraft integration of the ejector, and internal and external nozzle losses were also considered and a geometry for the attached nozzles was selected. The effect of leaks, protrusions, and asymmetries in the ejector surfaces was examined. The results indicated a relative insensitivity to all surface irregularities, except for large protrusions at the throat of the ejector
A Jet-diffuser ejector for a V/STOL fighter
A single ejector equipped with only one vector control jet and a diffuser flap was installed close to the leading edge of the strake of a one-fifth scale, semi-span model of the aircraft, without wing, canard, or tail surface. Tests of the system at a nozzle pressure ratio of 1.24 indicated a thrust augmentation of 1.92 and a thrust in the flight direction of about 12% of the total thrust under static conditions. An ejector stall occured at a ratio of tunnel dynamic pressure to nozzle gage pressure of about 0.008. Ejector stall speed can be delayed by using a boundary layer control jet at the front inlet lip of the ejector
Intense terahertz laser fields on a two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit coupling
The spin-dependent density of states and the density of spin polarization of
an InAs-based two-dimensional electron gas with the Rashba spin-orbit coupling
under an intense terahertz laser field are investigated by utilizing the
Floquet states to solve the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation.
It is found that both densities are strongly affected by the terahertz laser
field. Especially a terahertz magnetic moment perpendicular to the external
terahertz laser field in the electron gas is induced. This effect can be used
to convert terahertz electric signals into terahertz magnetic ones efficiently.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figures, a typo in Fig. 3(b) is correcte
