Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flapping-wing aircraft. Background Art
[0002] Flapping-wing aircraft has a wide range of application prospects due to its unique bionic shape and flight posture. Current prototype research is mainly focused on medium and large scale bird-like flapping-wing aircraft, and small scale bird-like flapping-wing aircraft prototypes are still rare.
[0003] At present, small-scale bird-like flapping wing aircraft generally have problems such as short flight time, weak load capacity, and poor autonomous flight ability. The flapping wings of medium- and large-scale bird-like flapping wing aircraft are composed of arm wings and hand wings. The arm wings are the parts corresponding to the humerus of bird wings. Since the arm wings located on the inner part of the flapping wing have greater rigidity, smaller movement amplitude, smaller geometric deformation amplitude, and weaker chord-wise deformation ability, they mainly generate upward lift and less forward thrust; the hand wings are the parts corresponding to the ulna and radius of bird wings. Since the wing ribs located on the outer part of the flapping wing are cantilever beam structures, they will also generate chord-wise deformation while maintaining up and down flapping, accelerate the airflow speed in the forward direction, and mainly generate forward thrust. However, since the flapping wings of medium- and large-scale bird-like flapping wing aircraft usually have larger wingspans and wing areas, they can relatively easily obtain the lift and thrust required for flight. In contrast, since the flapping wings of small-scale bird-like flapping wing aircraft are smaller in size, if a combined structure of arm wings and hand wings is adopted, it is more difficult to obtain thrust as a whole. On the other hand, the reduction in motor power density caused by size reduction and the greater viscosity loss caused by the reduction in Reynolds number have become more prominent, and the relevant devices have a greater contradiction in terms of function and size and weight under the constraint of small size. Therefore, the design of small-scale bird-like flapping-wing aircraft requires comprehensive optimization of the overall design of the aircraft, aerodynamics, power, energy, microelectronics and electromechanical manufacturing, so that it can generate greater forward thrust to overcome the problem of insufficient forward thrust of small-scale bird-like flapping-wing aircraft.
[0004] In summary, the development of practical high-performance small-scale bird-like flapping-wing aircraft still faces challenges. The present invention focuses on the engineering application development of small-scale bird-like flapping-wing aircraft, comprehensively designs and optimizes the relevant systems of the aircraft, and thus proposes an efficient small-scale bird-like flapping-wing aircraft.

[0061] Working mechanism that generates strong forward thrust
[0062] The flapping wing in the present invention is a full hand-wing structure, which imitates the active deformation of small birds during flapping through passive flexible deformation to obtain greater thrust at a small scale. Under the action of aerodynamic force, the flapping wing will undergo obvious flexible deformation, and there is an optimal torsional deformation for the flexible deformation, so that the thrust generated by the flapping wing is maximized. The flexible deformation of the three-dimensional flapping wing can be regarded as the torsional deformation of the two-dimensional flat airfoil at different spanwise positions. Therefore, by simplifying the flexible deformation and waving motion of the three-dimensional flapping wing into the pitching and sinking motion of the two-dimensional flat airfoil, the pitch amplitude is used to simulate different degrees of flexibility to determine the optimal deformation corresponding to the maximum thrust. The motion law corresponding to the two-dimensional airfoil is as follows:
[0063] h(t)=h m cos(2πft)
[0064]
[0065] Where h(t) is the rise and fall amplitude of the airfoil at different times at each station, h m is the buoyancy amplitude at each station, f is the flapping frequency, t is the time, θ(t) is the pitch amplitude of the airfoil at each station at different times, θ m is the pitch amplitude of each station.
[0066] Fluent software is used to calculate the pitch, sink and float motion of a two-dimensional flat airfoil. The flat airfoil is a flat plate with a chord length of 100 mm and a thickness of 2 mm. The inner flow field is a rectangular area, with the front boundary 5 times the chord length from the leading edge of the flat plate, the rear boundary 8 times the chord length from the leading edge of the flat plate, and the upper and lower boundaries 5 times the chord length from the leading edge of the flat plate respectively. The outer flow field is also a rectangular area, with the front boundary 20 times the chord length from the leading edge of the flat plate, the rear boundary 35 times the chord length from the leading edge of the flat plate, and the upper and lower boundaries 20 times the chord length from the leading edge of the flat plate respectively. The mesh size of the inner flow field is 69088, the mesh size of the outer flow field is 31110, and the total mesh size is about 10w. This mesh size can ensure that the unsteady calculation of the two-dimensional airfoil has a high accuracy. The schematic diagram of the calculated mesh is shown below. Figure 6 , Figure 7 shown.
[0067] The calculation states include different wind speeds, flapping frequencies and spanwise positions, and the specific calculation parameters are shown in Table 1. Among them, the airfoils at different spanwise positions have different sinking and floating amplitudes.
[0068] Table 1 Calculation parameters
[0069]
[0070] The thrust coefficients calculated under various conditions are as follows: Figures 8 to 16 shown.
[0071] Figure 8 to Figure 10 It is the thrust coefficient of the flat airfoil at a flapping frequency of 10 Hz, a flapping amplitude of 60 degrees and different pitch amplitudes.
[0072] Figure 11 to Figure 13 It is the thrust coefficient of the flat airfoil at a flapping frequency of 15 Hz, a flapping amplitude of 60 degrees and different pitch amplitudes.
[0073] Figure 14 to Figure 16 It is the thrust coefficient of the flat airfoil at a flapping frequency of 20 Hz, a flapping amplitude of 60 degrees and different pitch amplitudes.
[0074] It can be seen from the figure that for each state, the thrust coefficient shows a similar trend of change. There is an optimal pitch amplitude that makes the thrust coefficient reach the maximum value. This also proves again that flexibility is not the greater the better, but there is an optimal value. As the wind speed increases, the thrust coefficient decreases. As the flapping frequency and spanwise occupancy increase, the thrust coefficient generated by the flat airfoil increases.
[0075] The pitch amplitude corresponding to the maximum thrust in each state and the effective angle of attack at the middle moment of flapping were counted. The calculation formula for the effective angle of attack of flapping is:
[0076]
[0077] Where: V is the cruising speed.
[0078] The corresponding effective angle of attack at the middle moment of the dive is:
[0079]
[0080] Tables 2, 3 and 4 respectively show the pitch amplitude corresponding to the effective angle of attack and the maximum thrust at the middle moment of the dive under various calculation states at different frequencies.
[0081] Table 2 Effective angle of attack and pitch amplitude in each state at flapping frequency of 10 Hz
[0082]
[0083] Table 3 Effective angle of attack and pitch amplitude in each state at flapping frequency of 15 Hz
[0084]
[0085]
[0086] Table 4 Effective angle of attack and pitch amplitude in each state at flapping frequency of 20 Hz
[0087]
[0088] It can be found from the table that, except for some cases where the spanwise position is 0.25, in most cases, the optimal pitch amplitude required for maximum thrust is close to the effective angle of attack at the middle of the dive. Therefore, it can be considered that the optimal flexible deformation required for maximum thrust is equal to the effective angle of attack at the middle of the dive, that is, half of the induced angle of attack at the middle of the dive, as shown in the following formula.
