Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of aerospace wind tunnel tests, and in particular relates to a supporting device for increasing the scale of a large aspect ratio wing transonic wind tunnel test model. Background Art

[0002] Wind tunnel testing is an important means to verify and evaluate the aerodynamic characteristics of aircraft. The accuracy of test data will affect the quality and progress of aircraft development.

[0003] When conducting wind tunnel tests, the wind tunnel test model generally needs to be scaled down due to the size limitation of the wind tunnel test section. When scaling down, the size of the wind tunnel test model should be increased as much as possible while meeting the test requirements. A large wind tunnel test model has obvious advantages: 1. The larger the size of the wind tunnel test model, the more realistically it can simulate the geometric details and small components on the aircraft. The higher the geometric similarity of the wind tunnel test model, the more conducive it is to accurately evaluate the aerodynamic characteristics of the aircraft, which is crucial to the reliability of wind tunnel test data; 2. The larger the wind tunnel test model, the closer the test conditions in the wind tunnel are to the actual flight conditions, which makes it easier to meet the flow similarity and provide more accurate wind tunnel test data; 3. For large aspect ratio wings, since the wing surface is very thin, for the sake of test safety and data validity, the larger the wind tunnel test model, the thicker the wing surface, which is easier to meet the strength requirements.

[0004] In a wind tunnel test, the cross section of the wind tunnel test section is usually square, and the wind tunnel test model is fixed in the wind tunnel test section by a support device. The support forms of the wind tunnel test model generally adopt tail support, abdomen support and back support. When the above support methods are adopted, the wind tunnel test model is generally horizontal to the ground. In order to ensure that the model area has good flow field quality and reduce the interference of the tunnel wall on the aerodynamic characteristics of the wind tunnel test model, it is generally required that the wind tunnel test model has a length of no more than 70% of the width of the wind tunnel test section, that is, the distance between one side of the model and the tunnel wall must be no less than 15% of the width of the test section. For large aspect ratio wind tunnel test models, due to their large length, they are severely restricted by the width or height of the wind tunnel test section, making it difficult to increase the size of large aspect ratio wind tunnel test models. In order to make the large aspect ratio wind tunnel test model as large as possible, it is usually necessary to conduct wind tunnel tests in a larger wind tunnel. However, the size of the wind tunnel is limited by many factors. The larger the wind tunnel size, the higher the construction cost and wind tunnel test cost. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the size of the large aspect ratio wind tunnel test model as much as possible in the existing wind tunnel.
