摘要:
为了提升仿蜻蜓串联扑翼的气动性能,采用神经网络与CFD相结合的方法,系统分析了扭转角幅值,翼间距和前后翼相位差变化对仿蜻蜓串联扑翼升举效率的影响。研究结果表明:扭转角幅值,翼间距和前后翼相位差变化对仿蜻蜓串联扑翼的气动性能具有重要影响。就所研究的参数范围,通过神经网络优化后,最优和最差参数组合扑翼的升举效率相差90.33%。进一步通过对不同参数组合仿蜻蜓串联扑翼的流场分析,发现优化参数组合的串联扑翼前翼脱落的尾涡可以重新附着在后翼表面,减弱后翼上冲程时的涡旋强度,降低扑翼的能量消耗,从而使扑翼获得更好的气动性能。
Abstract:In order to improve the aerodynamic performance of dragonfly-inspired tandem flapping wings, the influences of three parameters, i.e. pitching amplitude, wing spacing and phase difference between forewing and hindwing, on the lifting efficiency of dragonfly-inspired tandem flapping wing were systematically analyzed by the combination of the neural network and CFD. The results showed that pitching amplitude, wing spacing and phase difference between forewing and hindwing had important influence on the aerodynamic performance of dragonfly-inspired tandem flapping wings. In the analysis parameter range, compared with the flapping wing with worst parameter combination, the lifting efficiency of the flapping wing with the best parameter combinations increased 90.33% by using neural network optimization. Furthermore, through the analysis of flow field of dragonfly-inspired tandem flapping wing with different parameter combinations, it was found that the trailing vortices shedding from the forewing can be reattached to the surface of the hindwing for the tandem flapping wing with the optimal combination of parameter, which can weaken the vortex intensity during the upstroke of the hindwing and reduce the energy consumption of the flapping wing, so that the flapping wing can generate better aerodynamic performance.
