Abstract

In order to improve the accuracy of wind tunnel test, relying on the high pressure gas source of China Aerodynamic Research and Development Center, a secondary flow standard facility based on sonic nozzle array is developed, and its pressure range is (1~6)MPa, and flow range is (0.12~5.55)kg/s. At present, most facilities use the average temperature measured by the temperature array to represent the upstream temperature of the sonic nozzle array. However, the small flow calibration test results show that, the maximum temperature difference upstream of the standard sonic nozzle array is 1.97 K, the temperature field upstream of the sonic nozzle array shows non-uniformity, so the above method cannot accurately obtain the upstream temperature. To solve this problem, each nozzle used in the standard sonic nozzle array was accurately measured by temperature sensors. And the uncertainty of the facility and the discharge coefficient of the calibrated nozzle between the two methods were compared. Results show that, compared with the discharge coefficient obtained by the tempearture sensor array of 0.9902, the accurate measurement of 0.9904 is closer to National Institute of Metrology, China(NIM) traceable result of 0.9907, and the relative uncertainty of the facility is reduced from 0.124% (k=2) to 0.120% (k=2).
