摘要: 基于大涡模拟(LES)模型和重叠网格技术, 对波浪柱在方位角90°/270°和120°/240°处施加吸气控制时的涡激振动(VIV)机制进行数值研究. 同时, 为了实现波浪柱涡激振动抑制的自适应吸气控制, 通过实时监测波浪柱附近流场的速度信息并将其作为强化学习框架中的反馈信息, 以降低涡激振动振幅和减少能量输入为优化目标, 利用近端策略优化算法(PPO)来调整吸气射流的动量系数. 研究发现: 施加吸气控制后, 锁频区间显著缩小, 但波浪柱的起振风速有所提前. 吸气射流降低了柱体背面的负压, 抑制了波浪柱涡激振动的脉动激励, 剪切层在顺流向得以延长, 旋涡脱落模式转变为平行脱落, 尾涡呈长条状. 在120°/240°处施加吸气控制的抑振效果更优, 与未受控条件相比, 振幅比峰值降低了约73.17%. 自适应控制过程显示, 在最开始的较短时间内, 闭环控制采用动量系数高于开环控制的吸气射流, 以快速降低振动幅度; 随后使用较低动量的射流维持低幅度状态, 总体射流能量低于开环控制, 且与未受控工况相比, 振幅比降低了约96.9%. 研究结果实现了波浪柱的自适应抑振闭环控制, 为钝体绕流的自适应主动控制提供了新的思路和方法.Abstract: With the use of large eddy simulation (LES) model and overset mesh, the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) mechanism of wavy cylinder, with suction control at azimuthal angles of 90°/270° and 120°/240°, has been numerically investigated for reduced velocities Ur from 2.4 to 13.2. In addition, to suppress the vibration by an adaptive suction control, velocity information is monitored in real-time and serves as feedback in reinforcement learning framework. With the optimization goals of reducing the amplitude of VIV and minimizing energy input, the proximal policy optimization (PPO) algorithm is employed to adjust the momentum coefficient of suction. The result indicates that lock-in range narrows significantly with suction control, but threshold wind speed at which cylinder begins to vibrate advances. Under suction control, the shear layer is extended in the streamwise direction, and the vortex shedding mode is transformed into a parallel shedding mode characterized by elongated tail vortices. These changes reduce the negative pressure on the leeward side of the cylinder and suppress the pulsating excitation of the Vortex-Induced Vibration. The vibration suppression effect is better when suction control is applied at 120° and 240°. The amplitude ratio at the peak is reduced by about 73.17% compared to the uncontrolled condition. The adaptive control process shows that higher momentum jet than open-loop control is taken firstly to quickly decrease the vibration amplitude, and then a lower momentum jet is utilized to maintain the low amplitude state. Compared to uncontrolled condition, the amplitude ratio is reduced by approximately 96.9% with a lower momentum jet than open-loop control. The research result has achieved adaptive closed-loop vibration suppression control of the wavy cylinder, providing new insights and approaches for the adaptive active control of flow around bluff bodies.
