摘要:
针对多旋翼倾转机翼飞行器,开展了直升机模式机翼/旋翼气动干扰计算分析。基于CFD方法建立了适用于多旋翼倾转机翼飞行器气动干扰分析的计算模型,然后对直升机模式时悬停和前飞状态下的机翼/旋翼气动干扰进行了数值计算,重点分析了气动干扰对机翼气动特性的影响,并进一步研究了襟翼及副翼偏转对机翼/旋翼气动干扰特性的影响规律。结果表明:悬停状态,受旋翼尾流影响,机翼产生较大的后向力,约占旋翼总拉力的5.4%;悬停时襟翼及副翼偏转可实现纵向和航向的有效操纵,前飞时通过襟翼及副翼上偏可以使机翼后向力降低约30%,从而提高最大前飞速度。
Abstract:The wing/rotor aerodynamic interference of multi-rotor tilting wing aircraft in helicopter mode was analyzed. Computational model for the aerodynamic interference analysis was established based on CFD method. The aerodynamic interference of the wing/rotor in hover and forward flight was numerically calculated, the influence of aerodynamic interference on the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing was analyzed, and the influence law of flap and aileron deflections was further studied. The results showed that, under the influence of rotor wake, the wing generated a large backward force, accounting for 5.4% of the total rotor force. The flap and aileron deflections during hovering can achieve effective longitudinal and heading maneuvers, and the flap and aileron up deflections during forward flight can reduce the backward wing force by 30%, thereby increasing the maximum forward flight speed.
