Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of missile attitude control, and in particular to a missile attitude control engine layout structure and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] At present, missiles perform combat missions in a wide range of speeds and altitudes. When the flight environment is in extremely low dynamic pressure, traditional aerodynamics cannot meet the flight control requirements, and a direct control force needs to be introduced to perform missile flight control. As a device that can effectively provide direct control force, attitude control engines are used in missiles. When attitude control engines are currently used for flight control, a layout scheme of 6 or more attitude control engines is adopted to achieve a more convenient and fast three-channel control effect. However, for missiles with strict space constraints and mass constraints, it is of great application value to study a missile attitude control engine layout and control strategy with a small number of attitude control engines but still able to achieve better three-channel control.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Aiming at the situation that traditional aerodynamics cannot meet the flight control requirements when the missile flight environment is in extremely low dynamic pressure, the present invention introduces a missile attitude control engine layout structure and a control method and system thereof.

[0031] According to a missile attitude control engine layout structure provided by the present invention, Figure 1-2 As shown, including:

[0032] A layout of four attitude control engines 2 is adopted, and each attitude control engine 2 is provided with energy required to generate thrust by an energy system 5 through a pipeline 6;

[0033] The attitude control engine layout includes: four attitude control engines are symmetrically arranged around the missile body. In this embodiment, the four attitude control engines can be symmetrically or asymmetrically arranged around the missile body; the normal line of each attitude control engine nozzle is not parallel to the engine installation center line. In this embodiment, when the normal line of each attitude control engine nozzle is perpendicular to the engine installation center line, the channel control force is most balanced; when they are not perpendicular, there will be emphasis according to the angle characteristics; the opening directions of the four attitude control engine nozzles are arranged in a plane-symmetrical manner.

[0034] The energy system of the attitude control engine may be one or more high-pressure gas storage devices or one or more chemical energy storage devices, which provide thrust energy for the four attitude control engines through pipelines.

[0035] The attitude control engine has a high-speed switching working characteristic and can quickly output or terminate thrust output according to control requirements.

[0036] A missile attitude control engine control method provided by the present invention comprises:

[0037] When four attitude control engines participate in attitude control, a control channel weight level time-sharing strategy is used to select different attitude control engine combinations to implement attitude control.

[0038] Among them, the four attitude control engines can realize positive and negative rotation around the X1, Y1 and Z1 axes of the missile body through different combinations of two.

[0039] The described attitude control engine control channel weight level time-sharing strategy includes channel priority or equal rights to implement engine operation selection. Channel priority is to sort by channel primary and secondary requirements or channel control accuracy requirements, and select the corresponding channel attitude control engine to work in sequence according to priority within a control cycle, and high priority channels can have a wider time share. Equal rights select the corresponding channel attitude control engine to work in sequence according to the design agreed sequence in equal time within a control cycle.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] Embodiment 2 is a preferred embodiment of Embodiment 1

[0042] A missile attitude control engine layout structure provided by the present invention includes:

[0043] OX1Y1Z1 is the missile body coordinate system, with the origin O at the missile mass center, the OX1 axis along the missile longitudinal axis, pointing to the warhead, the OY1 axis in the missile longitudinal symmetry plane, its direction is in the horizontal launch state, pointing upward is positive, the OZ1 axis and the OX1 axis and the OY1 axis form a right-handed coordinate system, such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, section AA is the attitude control engine installation surface, section BB is the section where the missile mass center is located, and the distance between the two sections is L meters. The attitude control engine layout in section AA is shown in the figure. Figure 2 , the 4 attitude control engines No. 2-1, No. 2-2, No. 2-3 and No. 2-4 are evenly distributed in the missile casing 1 at a 45-degree angle with the OY1 axis in the OY1Z1 section, and the attitude control engine nozzles are all facing the OY1 axis. The normal line 3 of each attitude control engine nozzle forms a 90-degree angle with the engine installation center line 4.

[0044] The energy system 5 is installed inside the bomb and stores a high-pressure nitrogen gas source.

[0045] The 4 attitude control engines 2-1, 2-2, 2-3 and 2-4 are controlled by switch solenoid valves. Before working, the high-pressure gas source of the energy system is led to the attitude control engines through pipelines 6-1 to 6-4. When the attitude control engine is not working, the solenoid valve is closed, and when it is working, the solenoid valve is opened (K), and the high-pressure nitrogen is discharged to generate thrust F.

[0046] When the missile attitude is controlled, P represents the pitch control channel, Y represents the yaw control channel, and R represents the roll control channel. Figure 3 As shown, the arrow rotation direction is the negative torque direction, represented by P-, Y-, R-, and the positive torque direction is represented by P+, Y+, R+.

[0047] μ(i)=[K1, K2, K3, K4], i=P-, Y-, R-, P+, Y+, R+. K1 is the working instruction of engine No. 2-1, K1=1 means the solenoid valve is open and working, K1=0 means it is closed and not working; K2 is the working instruction of engine No. 2-2, K2=1 means the solenoid valve is open and working, K2=0 means it is closed and not working; K3 is the working instruction of engine No. 2-3, K3=1 means the solenoid valve is open and working, K3=0 means it is closed and not working; K4 is the working instruction of engine No. 2-4, K4=1 means the solenoid valve is open and working, K4=0 means it is closed and not working.

[0048] Single channel control engine selection strategy:

[0049] μ(P-)=[1, 0, 0, 1];

[0050] μ(P+)=[0, 1, 1, 0];

[0051] μ(Y-)=[1, 1, 0, 0];

[0052] μ(Y+)=[0, 0, 1, 1];

[0053] μ(R-)=[0, 1, 0, 1];

[0054] μ(R+)=[1, 0, 1, 0].

[0055] The engine is selected to work according to the channel priority weight level time-sharing strategy, with the priority being R, P, and Y. Within a control cycle (1s):

[0056] The R channel time accounts for 41%, the R single channel control time accounts for 33%, and the R and P switching control time accounts for 8%;

[0057] The P channel time accounts for 41%, the P single channel control time accounts for 26%, the R and P switching control time accounts for 8%, and the P and Y switching control time accounts for 7%;

[0058] The Y channel time accounts for 33%, the Y single channel control time accounts for 26%, and the P and Y switching channel control time accounts for 7%. Figure 4 .

[0059] When the flight pressure of the missile is judged to be lower than 1500Pa during flight, the attitude control engine is started to participate in the control. Figure 4The designed channel priority weight level time-sharing strategy selects the engine to work, and controls the three channels R, P, and Y in sequence within one control cycle:

[0060] Step 1: According to the control requirements, calculate the 370ms negative rolling torque that the R channel control needs to generate. When it is within the R single channel control time (330ms), execute μ(R-)=[0, 1, 0, 1]. At this time, the solenoid valves of the No. 2-2 and No. 2-4 engines are open, and the solenoid valves of the No. 2-1 and No. 2-3 engines are closed, generating a negative rolling torque.

[0061] Step 2: When entering the R and P switching control time, first the R channel still generates a negative rolling moment, and continues to execute μ(R-)=[0, 1, 0, 1] for the first 40ms; then switches to P channel control, calculates the P channel demand to generate a 310ms positive pitch moment, and executes μ(P+)=[0, 1, 1, 0]. At this time, the solenoid valves of the No. 2-2 and No. 2-3 engines are open, and the solenoid valves of the No. 2-1 and No. 2-4 engines are closed, generating a positive pitch moment;

[0062] Step 3: During the P single-channel control time, continue to generate positive pitch moment and execute μ(P+)=[0, 1, 1, 0];

[0063] Step 4: When entering the P and Y switching control time, complete the last 10ms of negative pitch moment generated by the P channel, and then switch to the Y channel control. The Y channel needs to generate a negative yaw moment, and execute μ(P-)∩μ(Y-)=[1, 0, 0, 0]. At this time, the solenoid valve of the No. 2-1 engine is open, and the solenoid valves of the No. 2-2 to No. 2-3 engines are closed, generating a negative rolling moment and a positive pitch moment;

[0064] Step 5: Enter the next control cycle and repeat steps 1 to 4 to determine and execute the control requirements of each channel.
