[0002] Hypersonic air-breathing vehicles are aircraft powered by air-breathing scramjet engines. They combine the aerodynamic performance of the aircraft with the thrust performance of the air-breathing engine. With their advantages of high speed, long range and superior performance, they have been continuously studied by researchers at home and abroad. However, as the flight speed increases, the drag experienced by the aircraft increases sharply, resulting in a decrease in lift-to-drag ratio and reduced maneuverability. Therefore, promoting the integrated design of internal and external flow is the key to realizing hypersonic air-breathing flight. At present, the research on the integrated design of internal and external flow of aircraft still focuses more on the local structure and flow field simulation optimization, while the optimization of wing aerodynamic shape through internal flow index simulation data is still relatively rare.

[0015] Preferably, the thickness distribution is designed as an airfoil with equal thickness at the wing root and wingtip, and the wing section thickness must be greater than the minimum thickness required to withstand the aerodynamic load.

[0034] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described novel embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] This invention relates to a novel pre-compressor wing for a hypersonic air-breathing vehicle that balances internal and external flow performance. The specific implementation steps are as follows:
[0036] Step 1: Wing pre-compression angle θ pre-c Design: Based on the given airframe and target lift-to-drag ratio, determine the optimal external flow performance angle of attack α2 for the aircraft; for Ma 6.0, 27km, 0 °~ 8 ° The internal flow performance of the air intake under flight angle of attack conditions is analyzed, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the moving mean and moving standard deviation are calculated using three data points as a moving interval. The optimal interval for calculating the total pressure recovery coefficient σ is (2... ° 4 ° 5 ° The optimal range for the pressure ratio π at the throat is (4). ° 5 ° 6 ° The optimal range for the intake duct capture flow rate m is (4 ° 5 ° 6 ° Taking the intersection of the three intervals, the range of the optimal internal flow performance angle of attack α1 is [4]. ° 5 ° ]; thus the wing precompression angle .
[0037] Step 2: Wing characteristic area design, such as Figure 3 As shown: The pressure and force conditions of the wing are analyzed. The pressure difference between the windward and leeward sides of the wing is (P wind -P lee The Mach number (Ma) can be calculated from the aircraft's extreme flight conditions: given the incoming flow Ma... start Incoming flow pressure P start Deflection angle α2 (i.e., the optimal angle of attack for outflow performance α2), specific heat ratio γ, the leeward side of the wing is an expansion wave flow region, and the static pressure ratio before and after the wave is... According to the expansion wave relation , The Mach number after the expansion wave deflection can be obtained. Then, based on the isentropic relationship, we obtain... The windward side of the wing is the shock wave flow region, with a static pressure ratio before and after the wave of [missing information]. According to the oblique shock wave relation Solve the equation to obtain the shock angle β, and then obtain... Based on the static pressure ratio before and after the expansion wave / shock wave, the pressure difference on the windward / leeward side of the wing can be calculated. Subsequently, based on the relationship between the lift / drag increment and the initial lift-drag ratio and the target lift-drag ratio, the expression for the wing characteristic area can be obtained as follows: ;
[0038] Step 3, wing shape design, such as Figure 5 As shown: Establish a rectangular coordinate system with point A as the origin. The curve near the fuselage is the intersection curve AB of the wing and fuselage, which can be represented as: The side profile curve AC of the aircraft can be represented as The trailing edge curve BC can be represented as And the leading edge sweep angle θ lead The value range is
[55] ° 75 ° [, to constrain the shape of the side curve of the aircraft body.]
[0039] Step 4: Wing Section Thickness Design: There is a pressure difference (P) between the windward and leeward sides of the wing. wind -P lee If this is not the case, then a bending stress check of the wing is required to determine the minimum thickness t of the wing to withstand the aerodynamic load. min Find the location where the wing experiences the maximum bending moment, that is, where the distance between the wing's far-from-the-fleet curve and its near-from-the-fleet curve is the greatest. Figure 6 As shown, a perpendicular line is drawn from point C to the fuselage, intersecting at point C1. The stress on the wing is then equivalent to that of a cantilever arm for bending stress verification, as follows: Figure 7 As shown, consider a small width ∆b in the neighborhood of point C, with length h for CC1 and height equal to the minimum wing thickness t. min Then the maximum bending moment is Section bending coefficient Therefore, the allowable bending stress condition of the material must be met at point C1. The allowable bending stress of the wing is [σ]. The minimum thickness of the wing is calculated. ;
[0040] Step 5: Design of the leading edge profile of the wing: The leading edge profile consists of an arc of radius r and two tangent curves, such as... Figure 8As shown, the radius r ranges from [5mm, 30mm], and x t The maximum wing thickness is located at the chord length [30%, 45%]. A Cartesian coordinate system is established with the center point of the maximum wing thickness as the origin. The tangent curve portion can be represented using... This indicates that the arc portion with radius r can be represented by... express.
[0041] Preliminary verification of the wing pre-compression angle design concept described in this patent has been conducted:
[0042] With a design condition of Ma 6.0, 27km, and a wing blunt leading edge radius r = 5mm, the following results were obtained:
[0043] 1) Under the given conditions of airframe and target lift-to-drag ratio, optimize the inlet flow performance to achieve the optimal angle of attack within [0°]. ° 8 ° The internal flow performance within the interval [4] shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and in [4] ° 5 ° Within the [7] interval, the internal flow performance is relatively better, but at this time, the external flow performance is at the angle of attack [7]. ° 8 ° Relatively optimal within the range, such as Figure 9 As shown;
[0044] 2) Under the same flight angle of attack range, the pre-compressed wing and its aerodynamic shape satisfy the optimal state of outflow performance. For the wing, install 3... ° Pre-compression angle, at which point the angle of attack [4] ° 5 ° Within the interval, the internal and external flow performance of the aircraft simultaneously reaches a relatively optimal level, such as... Figure 10 As shown, the integrated design of internal and external flow performance enables the aircraft to have excellent flight characteristics.
[0045] During flight, the internal and external flow performance of an aircraft is closely related to its angle of attack. In most cases, the optimal internal and external flow performance of an aircraft cannot be simultaneously satisfied at a certain angle of attack. Therefore, the internal and external flow performance of an aircraft can be adjusted by installing a pre-compression angle on the wing. The compression angle refers to the angle between the chord line of the wing root airfoil and the fuselage axis when the wing is installed on the fuselage. The pre-compression angle wing achieves the purpose of adjusting the aerodynamic performance of the aircraft without affecting the performance of the air intake by changing the angle between the wing and the fuselage, so that the aircraft meets the requirements of optimal internal and external flow performance and has better flight capability.
[0046] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
