Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a large-scale low-speed wind tunnel buffeting test wing model supporting device. Background Art

[0002] If the airflow separates when the aircraft is flying at a low speed and a high angle of attack, it will induce flutter. Flutter is the forced vibration of the aircraft structure caused by the random pulsating pressure excitation in the separated airflow. Although the aircraft flutter does not cause immediate structural damage like flutter, it increases the structural stress and reduces the fatigue life of the structure; it reduces the performance of the aircraft (increased drag and reduced lift); the aircraft will pitch up, the wings will fall, the head will tilt, and the swaying will occur, resulting in the deterioration of the flight quality of the aircraft. In addition to reducing the work efficiency of the crew and making passengers feel uncomfortable, it will also cause the working environment of the onboard equipment to deteriorate and fail to work normally. At present, wind tunnel tests are usually used to study the flutter characteristics of aircraft. It is necessary to design and process a special support device for the flutter test. In order to simulate the actual situation of the wind tunnel test model as much as possible, the model should be made as large as possible, or components such as wings should be used for model flutter test research. This requires that the flutter test model support device can simulate the working conditions of large angles of attack to meet the test conditions for the occurrence of model flutter. In addition, most of the existing flutter test wing model support devices install part of the structure in the wind tunnel, which increases the blockage and affects the wind tunnel flow field; the traditional manual adjustment of the model angle of attack results in low test efficiency and poor accuracy.
