Development of calculation method and creation of vortex jet device to control gas flow

Abstract

Based on the analysis performed and a preliminary numerical calculation of the gas flow in the regulator’s working cavity, a new design of the vortex gas pressure regulator has been developed. With the use of additive technologies, an experimental sample of the device has been manufactured. A number of experiments are carried out on the basis of the developed stand for testing the vortex regulator. The results of experimental studies confirmed the efficiency of the structure. Numerical studies have been carried out and a new design of the vortex regulator has been developed with a distributed flow of the control flow of the working medium, as well as the regulation of the twist of the supply and control flows of the working medium
