Aerodynamic layout of a flapping-wing matrix aircraft

Abstract

The invention discloses an aerodynamic layout structure of a flapping-wing matrix aircraft, which comprises a fuselage and large-aspect-ratio wings symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fuselage, the large-aspect-ratio wings include a wing frame, and the wing frame consists A plurality of wing frames perpendicular to the direction of the fuselage are connected in series, and several flapping wing frames along the direction of the fuselage are included in the wing frame, and an independent flapping wing is arranged in each flapping wing frame. One flapping wing is controlled independently; through the coordinated control of multiple groups of flapping wings, the vertical take-off and landing, hovering, flapping flight and gliding flight of the aircraft can be realized, and the longitudinal and heading control of the aircraft can also be realized. The common flapping of multiple sets of flapping wings can significantly increase the load capacity of the aircraft, and further improve the aerodynamic efficiency of the flapping wings, so that the aircraft has a longer flight distance and flight time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aircraft, in particular to an aircraft aerodynamic layout provided by a flapping wing matrix for lift, thrust and control. Background technique [0002] The flying masters in nature - birds and insects, without exception, all adopt the flapping wing flight method, which has been evolved over tens of millions of years and has high maneuverability and low energy consumption. In the early days, human beings also learned from birds and hoped to realize the dream of flying by flapping various wings, but limited by the research level of flight principles at that time and the lack of technology, materials, machinery, etc., these attempts were based on Failed. Later, with the continuous and in-depth research on aerodynamics, people realized their flying dreams through fixed-wing and rotary-wing flying methods, which are also the main flying methods of existing aircraft. The fixed-wing aircraft generates lift th...

Problems solved by technology

However, limited by the limitations of flapping wing materials and power at the current level of technology, the current flapping wing aircraft is mainly a small flapping wing aircraft imitating a bird and a miniature flapping wing aircraft imitating an insect. There is an upper limit on the size and frequency of the flapping wing. As a result, the weight of the flapping wing aircraft is limited, and it is impossible to achieve high load, long-term or long-distance flight
