[0066] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0067] During the operation of a flying car, the required power of the flying car under different operating conditions needs to be calculated. By combining theoretical calculations with CFD, using the CFD method to obtain basic aerodynamic data with few calculation examples, and supplementing the source of theoretical calculation data, the required power of the flying car can be calculated based on the basic aerodynamic data obtained based on CFD and the theoretical calculation data.

[0068] Reference Figure 1, shows a flowchart of a power processing method embodiment of a flying car of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0069] Step 101, obtaining state parameters of the flying car's running state;

[0070] The state parameters of the flying car's operating state may be state parameters corresponding to states determined based on different hovering altitudes, and / or different forward flight speeds, and / or different climbing speeds, and / or different take-off weights. The state parameters corresponding to different operating states of the flying car are different. Such state parameters related to the operating state may be provided by the flying car for direct acquisition, such as rotor diameter, atmospheric density, rotor speed, level flight speed, climbing speed, take-off weight, efficiency factor, rotor solidity, body reference area and other parameters. These parameters may be parameters acquired at different hovering altitudes, forward flight speeds, climbing speeds and take-off weights of flying cars.

[0071] Parameters such as the blade element drag coefficient and the body drag coefficient may be basic aerodynamic data of the flying car, wherein the blade element drag coefficient is a coefficient related to the wing airfoil adopted by the flying car, and the body drag coefficient may be a coefficient related to the configuration of the body. This basic aerodynamic data may be obtained by adopting a CFD method, and after the calculation is completed, it may be equivalent to a fixed value in the embodiment of the present invention, and the aforementioned acquired state parameters are theoretical values ​​of relevant parameters of the flying car under different operating states, and do not need to be calculated by CFD, thereby reducing CFD calculation examples. Compared with CFD calculation of multiple examples of the whole machine, while greatly reducing the calculation workload of CFD, the accuracy of theoretical calculation can be improved based on the introduced basic aerodynamic data.

[0072] Step 102, performing iterative calculation of theoretical values ​​according to the state parameters of the running state and basic aerodynamic data to obtain the power value of the flying car in the running state;

[0073] By combining theoretical calculation with CFD, the CFD method can be used to obtain basic aerodynamic data with few calculation examples to improve the accuracy of theoretical calculation. At this time, the acquired state parameters and the introduced basic aerodynamic data can be used to perform iterative calculation of theoretical values ​​to obtain multiple power values ​​determined by the state parameters of the flying car under states determined based on different hovering altitudes, and / or different forward flight speeds, and / or different climbing speeds, and / or different take-off weights, so as to determine the required power of the flying car based on the obtained power values.

[0074] Among them, the determined multiple power values ​​may include induced power, type drag power, and waste drag power. At this time, the state parameters corresponding to the operating states determined by determining different hovering altitudes, and / or different forward flight speeds, and / or different climbing speeds, and / or different take-off weights can be used to determine the induced power, type drag power, and waste drag power of the flying car under different operating states.

[0075] Step 103: Generate the total power of the flying car under the state parameters of the current running state according to the power value.

[0076] The multiple power values ​​determined may include induced power, type resistance power, and waste resistance power. At this time, the obtained induced power, type resistance power, and waste resistance power can be summed to obtain the total power of the flying car under the state parameters of the current operating state, thereby realizing the calculation of the required power of the flying car under different operating states.

[0077] In the embodiment of the present invention, by obtaining the state parameters of the flying car's running state and the basic aerodynamic data of the flying car, the theoretical value iterative calculation of the state parameters of the running state and the basic aerodynamic data can be performed to obtain the power value of the flying car, and the total power of the state parameters of the flying car in the current running state can be determined according to the calculated power value, that is, the required power of the flying car is generated. By adopting the combination of theoretical calculation and CFD, the basic aerodynamic data with few calculation examples is obtained by using the CFD method, and the source of theoretical calculation data is supplemented. While improving the theoretical calculation accuracy, compared with the CFD calculation of multiple calculation examples of the whole machine, the calculation workload of CFD can be greatly reduced; and the power value of the whole machine when the flying car hovers at different altitudes, different forward flight speeds, different climbing speeds, and different take-off weights can be quickly calculated, and the power demand corresponding to the complete speed altitude envelope can be obtained to provide parameter basis for power selection. Due to the greatly reduced calculation workload of CFD, the effect of low calculation cost and high timeliness is achieved.

[0078] Reference Figure 2 , shows a flowchart of another embodiment of a power processing method for a flying car of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0079] Step 201, determining the waste resistance power of the flying car based on relevant input parameters of the flying car;

[0080] The relevant input parameters of the flying car may include state parameters of the flying car's operating state and basic aerodynamic data. The state parameters of the flying car's operating state may be state parameters corresponding to states determined based on different hovering altitudes, and / or different forward flight speeds, and / or different climbing speeds, and / or different take-off weights. When calculating the power requirements corresponding to different operating states of the flying car, i.e., the total power, the state parameters of the current operating state of the flying car obtained and the basic aerodynamic data calculated using CDF may be first used to combine and calculate various power values ​​of the flying car, and then the required power of the flying car may be determined based on the various power values ​​obtained.

[0081] The power value of the flying car calculated using the input parameters includes the waste resistance power of the flying car under the state parameters of the current operating state.

[0082] Specifically, the corresponding state parameters of the flying car in the current running state obtained may include the forward flight speed V and the total rotor thrust T of the flying car, and the basic aerodynamic data introduced may include the body drag coefficient C d , then you can Figure 3 As shown, the acquired parameters and data are used as input parameters for calculating the required power of the flying car in the full mission state, and the waste resistance power of the flying car is calculated.

[0083] Among them, Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the body drag coefficient Cd and the forward flight speed V can be used to calculate the propeller angle of attack α of the flying car. The propeller angle of attack refers to the angle between the free flow velocity and the rotor structural plane. The angle is affected by the whole machine resistance and the rotor forward pull. The propeller angle can be calculated based on the body drag coefficient Cd and the forward flight speed V. d The calculated resistance of the whole machine is: 0.5*density*speed^2*reference area*C d , the rotor front thrust is: total thrust * sin (propeller angle α), then the specific balancing calculation can be achieved by balancing the two values ​​of the whole machine resistance and the rotor front thrust; then the flying car's forward flight speed V, the rotor total thrust T and the propeller angle α can be used for sine calculation to obtain the flying car's waste drag power P f , its specific calculation expression can be P f =Tsinα*V.

[0084] Step 202, determining the drag power of the flying car based on relevant input parameters of the flying car;

[0085] The power value of the flying car calculated using the input parameters includes the drag power of the flying car under the state parameters of the current operating state.

[0086] Specifically, the corresponding parameters of the flying car in the current operating state may include the rotor solidity σ, the forward flight speed V and the climb angle θ, and the basic aerodynamic data introduced may include the body drag coefficient C d And blade element resistance coefficient C x , then you can Figure 3 As shown, the acquired parameters and data are used as input parameters for calculating the required power of the flying car in the full mission state, and the drag power of the flying car under the state parameters of the current operating state is calculated.

[0087] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, the body resistance coefficient C can be used d The propeller angle of attack α of the flying car is obtained by trimming and calculating the forward flight speed V. The propeller angle of attack refers to the angle between the free flow velocity and the rotor structural plane. The angle is affected by the whole machine resistance and the rotor forward pull, which can be calculated based on the body drag coefficient C d The calculated resistance of the whole machine is: 0.5*density*speed^2*reference area*C d , the rotor forward thrust is: total thrust * sin (propeller angle of attack α), then the specific balancing calculation can be achieved by balancing the two values ​​of the whole machine resistance and the rotor forward thrust; then, the forward flight speed V 0 , the propeller angle of attack α and the climb angle θ are calculated by cosine to obtain the forward ratio μ of the flying car, and its specific calculation expression can be: μ=V 0 cos(α+θ); further, using the rotor solidity σ, advance ratio μ and blade element drag coefficient C x Calculate the type resistance power coefficient C S , its specific expression can be C S= 1.05(1+4.65μ 2 )σC x / 4, and the type resistance power coefficient C S Perform the transformation to get the flying car's drag power P S .

[0088] Step 203, determining the induced power of the flying car rotor based on the relevant input parameters of the flying car.

[0089] The power value of the flying car calculated using the input parameters includes the induced power of the flying car under the state parameters of the current operating state.

[0090] Specifically, the corresponding state parameters of the flying car in the current running state obtained may include the forward flight speed V and the climbing angle θ of the flying car, and the basic aerodynamic data introduced may include the body drag coefficient C d , then you can Figure 3As shown, the acquired parameters and data are used as input parameters for calculating the required power of the flying car in the full mission state, and the induced power of the flying car under the state parameters of the current operating state is calculated.

[0091] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, the rotor power coefficient C of the flying car can be determined based on the body drag coefficient Cd, forward flight speed V and climb angle θ of the flying car. P , and then the preset rotor design index efficiency factor FOM and rotor power coefficient C can be used P The rotor power required is calculated, and the induced power P of the flying car is obtained from the rotor power required. y Specifically, the calculated drag power can be separated from the rotor required power to obtain the rotor induced power P y .

[0092] Rotor power coefficient C for flying cars P The calculation of can be determined by the forward ratio λ, the induced velocity V1 of the slurry disk and the inflow ratio λ, and its specific expression can be C P =2λV 1 sqrt(λ 2 +μ 2 ). Among them, the forward ratio μ can be determined by cosine calculation using the forward flight speed V, the blade angle of attack α and the climb angle θ. At this time, the forward flight speed can be expressed as a dimensionless expression of v (i.e. V 0 ), the cosine calculation expression can be μ = V 0 cos(α+θ), and the propeller angle of attack α of the flying car can be calculated by the body drag coefficient C d It is obtained by trimming calculation with the forward flight speed V.

[0093] Then, the initial forward speed V 0 , the propeller angle of attack α and the climb angle θ are calculated by sinusoidal calculation to obtain the initial inflow ratio λ 0 , its specific expression can be λ 0 =V 0 sin(α+θ), so as to pass the flying car's forward ratio μ, based on the preset rotor thrust coefficient C T , the propeller disc induced velocity V calculated by the inflow ratio λ and the forward ratio μ 1 , and based on the initial inflow ratio λ 0 and the propeller disc induced velocity V 1 Determine the inflow ratio λ and determine the rotor power coefficient C of the flying car P .

[0094] In an embodiment of the present invention, in the process of calculating the rotor power coefficient using the disk induced speed, the inflow ratio and the forward ratio, the values ​​of the disk induced speed and the inflow ratio may be subject to iterative changes.

[0095] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, according to the initial inflow ratio λ 0 and the propeller disc induced velocity V 1 The inflow ratio λ can be obtained: λ=λ 0 +V 1 , and the propeller disc induced velocity V 1 It can be expressed as V 1 =C T / 2 / sqrt(λ 2 +μ 2 ), at this time, the initial value of the inflow ratio λ can be introduced 1 To the above blade induction, speed V 1 The expression is used as the initial value for iterative calculation, that is, λ 1 =μtanα+0.5C T / sqrt(μ 2 +C T / 2), in the process of iterative calculation, the main thing is to determine the inflow ratio, so that the initial inflow ratio λ 0 and the propeller disc induced velocity V 1 The method of calculating the inflow ratio λ is basically the same as the inflow ratio used as the initial value for iterative calculation mentioned above.

[0096] In order to make the inflow ratio calculated by the above two methods basically the same, we can 1 As the initial value for iterative calculation, let λ 1 =(λ-λ 1 ) / 2+λ 1 , set the convergence coefficient C = λ 1 / λ, which is determined by judging the value of the convergence coefficient C. Usually, the convergence coefficient C can be less than the preset threshold value 1.005, that is, when C<1.005, the iteration ends. At this time, the determined inflow ratio can be used as the input for the next step of calculating the rotor power coefficient.

[0097] Specifically, the initial inflow ratio λ can be used 0 , rotor pull coefficient C T The initial value of the disc induced velocity is calculated with the forward ratio μ, and then the inflow ratio is determined using the initial value of the disc induced velocity and the initial inflow ratio.

[0098] At this time, in one case, if the convergence coefficient determined based on the ratio of the initial inflow ratio and the inflow ratio is less than a preset threshold, the inflow ratio, the initial value of the propeller disc induced speed and the forward ratio can be used for calculation to obtain the rotor power coefficient of the flying car.

[0099] In another case, if the convergence coefficient determined based on the initial inflow ratio and the ratio of the inflow ratio exceeds a preset threshold, the inflow ratio and the initial inflow ratio can be continuously used to determine a new initial inflow ratio until the convergence coefficient determined based on the ratio of the new initial inflow ratio and the inflow ratio is less than the preset threshold.
