Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of the design and optimization of large-scale precision antenna backbones and transition structures, and more particularly to an optimization method for a submillimeter-wave antenna backbone and a transition structure. Background Art
[0002] The submillimeter-wave band is a new window for exploring the universe. In recent years, countries around the world have successively planned and constructed the next-generation large-aperture and high-precision submillimeter-wave telescope antennas, including the CCAT (25m) in the United States, the LST (50m) in Japan, the AtLAST (50m) in Europe, and so on. In recent years, the submillimeter-wave research group in China has also proposed the idea of a 60-meter-class submillimeter-wave telescope. Building the next-generation large-scale submillimeter-wave astronomical observation facilities has become a high consensus in the international astronomical community. For single-aperture millimeter-wave and submillimeter-wave antennas, in order to improve the sensitivity and resolution of the system, the required aperture of the antenna is increasing day by day. However, as the aperture increases, the structural self-weight of large-scale precision antennas usually shows exponential growth, which poses higher requirements for their structural stiffness. If the self-weight and stiffness are mismatched, not only will the natural frequency of the structure decrease, but also the structure will undergo serious deformation, which will seriously affect the reflector surface accuracy of the antenna. Therefore, when designing the structure of a large-aperture antenna, it is necessary to solve the problem of the mismatch between the structural self-weight and stiffness, and specifically propose improvement plans through conceptual optimization design to carry out the overall structure development of the antenna.
[0003] The 60m submillimeter-wave antenna is an advanced large-aperture and large-field-of-view submillimeter-wave telescope, with a main reflector aperture of 60m, a working wavelength covering 0.65 - 3mm, a designed field-of-view diameter of up to 1°, and very strict requirements for the reflector surface accuracy and pointing accuracy, requiring a surface shape accuracy better than 30μm and a tracking pointing accuracy better than 2 arcseconds, and requiring the accuracy to be maintained stably for a long time. However, for large-aperture antennas, in order to maintain the surface shape accuracy and pointing accuracy, the self-weight of the antenna and the large-span structural distribution will inevitably have an impact. Therefore, optimization design means should be used in the preliminary structural design stage to reduce these impacts.
[0004] After the structural design of high-precision large-aperture submillimeter-wave telescopes is completed, active surface technology is often used to correct the influence of gravity deformation on the main surface accuracy. However, the correction accuracy range is limited, and a certain design accuracy needs to be achieved during the preliminary design to ensure that the active surface technology used later can meet the accuracy requirements. At present, the back frame design of the antenna generally adopts a shape-preserving design, but the transition structure design is a major difficulty. At present, there are probably the following types: For example, the 10mHHT millimeter-wave telescope uses a transition structure design of cross steel sheets to connect the CFRP back frame and the steel antenna base. This design can reduce the influence of thermal deformation on structural accuracy, but it will make the telescope structure seriously insufficient in rigidity, so it is not suitable for large-aperture radio telescopes. The 25mCCAT submillimeter-wave telescope planned to be built in the United States is going to use a CFRP back frame structure, and based on the thermal shape-preserving theory, a space truss transition structure design is proposed, which needs further research and verification. The 50mLMT millimeter-wave telescope adopts a transition structure design in which a dual drive shaft is directly connected to a steel back frame. The connection points are symmetrically distributed at the four connection positions on the 45° plane of the bottom layer of the back frame. The optical field of view and main surface accuracy requirements of this telescope are lower than those of the 60m submillimeter-wave antenna, but its structural design can be used as a design reference for the 60m submillimeter-wave telescope. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a submillimeter wave antenna back frame and transition structure optimization method, which can improve the structural stiffness as much as possible under the action of gravity to reduce the influence of gravity on the antenna surface accuracy, and obtain the optimal solution that satisfies the minimum antenna surface error.

Output the results after optimization.
[0106] (6) According to the optimization results, establish an antenna model based on the optimal results and analyze the whole antenna.
[0107] Taking the 60 - m - diameter sub - millimeter - wave antenna as an example, the back frame of the antenna uses CFRP material rods, the transition structure and the driving wheel use steel materials. Use the topology optimization method to design the antenna transition structure. The models before and after the design are as Figure 2As shown, the area pointed by the arrow is the optimization area of the transition structure. This part is first simplified into an annular solid structure, and through the topology optimization process and conversion, the final design structure is obtained. The optimization process is as Figure 3 shown.
[0108] According to the optimization model established in step (2), taking the root mean square error (rmse) of the geometric deformation of the main surface of the antenna as the main objective function, first perform a sensitivity analysis of the reference coordinates of the backframe joints in step (3). The analysis results are as Figure 4 shown. In the optimization process of steps (4) and (5), add the position of the center of gravity of the structure zcen as a secondary target parameter. The optimization process uses the reference coordinates of the backframe joints, the cross-sectional parameters of the backframe and the transition structure rods, and the interface position as design variables, and performs genetic algorithm optimization on the designed structure step by step. Output the objective function and the values of the design variables corresponding to the optimal results of each step to establish the optimization parameter model for the next step. Extract the data from the output file to obtain the iterative process of the objective function rmse and the position of the center of gravity of the structure zcen, as Figure 5 shown.
[0109] Finally, the optimal solution is obtained when the maximum number of generations of evolution is reached and the algorithm converges. That is, under the action of gravity, the geometric deformation error of the main surface of the antenna is 135.6 μm, and the center of gravity coordinate is 0.029 m. Compare the analysis results of the structures before and after optimization. Under the same gravity load, the deformation error of the main surface of the antenna is reduced by 61.1%, and the center of gravity coordinate is very close to the ideal position. Compared with the optimization results of the reference LMT design structure, the deformation error of the main surface of the antenna is reduced by 48.3%, and the center of gravity coordinate is closer to the ideal position.
