Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flight system control, and in particular to a dynamics modeling and motion characteristics research scheme for a gull-wing variant aircraft. Background Art
[0002] Traditional transformable aircraft have performance mismatches in different flight phases, especially large lift losses at low speeds; the gull-wing transformable aircraft, with its unique large aspect ratio wing design, can adapt to different environments and mission requirements by adjusting the wing shape or structure during flight, thereby improving the aircraft's lift-to-drag ratio and fuel efficiency and extending its flight time; at the same time, the aircraft can adjust the folding angle of the wings in sections according to different flight phases (such as takeoff, cruising, and landing) to improve aerodynamic efficiency and flight stability; in addition, its versatile flight modes enable the aircraft to flexibly switch when performing reconnaissance or strike missions, greatly improving its ability to complete flight missions.
[0003] The present invention proposes a scheme for dynamic modeling and motion characteristics research of a gull-wing variant aircraft; the structure adopts quasi-Lagrangian equations to establish a nonlinear multi-body dynamic model that fully describes the motion characteristics of the folding wing as a whole and each unit wing, and uses three-dimensional lift line theory to respectively calculate the relevant aerodynamic forces and moments of the aircraft; the results show that when flying at a low angle of attack, the lift-to-drag ratio of the aircraft is relatively large, the longitudinal stability is good, and the flight performance is good at this time; while at a high angle of attack, the lift-to-drag ratio of the aircraft becomes smaller, the longitudinal stability becomes worse, and the aircraft is at risk of stalling. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a dynamic modeling and analysis method for a gull-wing variant aircraft to solve the problem of performance mismatch of traditional variant aircraft in different flight stages, especially large lift loss at low speeds. Compared with traditional variant aircraft such as variable-sweep aircraft, which perform well at high-speed cruising but cannot effectively reduce induced drag at low-speed flight, the gull-wing variant aircraft reduces the lift loss of the aircraft due to its unique airfoil design; at the same time, when facing a more complex and changeable flight environment, the variable-sweep wing aircraft is prone to greater aerodynamic interference due to the large changes in the wing surface, while the gull-wing shape can better disperse pressure changes and reduce the impact of flow field disturbances on lift.

The position and direction of the horseshoe vortex at this point and the direction induction are determined as follows: Figure 2 As shown, applying Biot-Savart's theorem to each group of horseshoe vortices, the induced velocity at any point is derived as:
[0086]
[0087] in, is the unit vortex strength, is the distance to the vortex center; using the trigonometric relationship:
[0088]
[0089] Equation 2 is converted to:
[0090]
[0091] And because the eddy current velocity is:
[0092]
[0093] in, is the velocity at the vortex point, is the far-field velocity;
[0094] Based on equations (4) and (5), the complete horseshoe vortex consisting of a finite attachment vortex and two semi-infinite vortex lines is derived: For any point in space The induction speed is:
[0095]
[0096] Step 1.2 Calculate the lift on the aircraft;

[0109]
[0110] in, is the location of the reference point, usually the chord length of the wing ;
[0111] Assuming that the aircraft is only affected by induced drag, when the wing generates lift, the pressure difference on both sides of the wing will form wingtip vortices at the trailing edge of the wing. These vortices cause downwash behind the wing. The change in angle of attack caused by this downwash is called the induced angle of attack, recorded as , then the relationship between the induced angle of attack is:
[0112]

[0118] Step S2, establishing a multi-body dynamics model and constructing a dynamics equation through a quasi-Lagrangian equation; specifically comprising the following steps:
[0119] Step S2.1 Establish a coordinate system, such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, a global coordinate system fixed to the fuselage and a local coordinate system of each unit wing are introduced. The fuselage is named , connecting the main wing and aileron from the fuselage to the right and defined as , The connection point between the main wing and the aileron is named , is the main wing folding angle, is the aileron folding angle. The left and right wings always remain symmetrical. The global coordinate system The origin of the coordinates is located at the center , the coordinate system of the local unit wing The origin of the coordinates is located at the centroid of each unit wing, where the subscript It is a unit wing, namely the main wing and aileron , the inertial coordinate system is ;

In addition to gravity, the main forces acting on the gull-wing variant aircraft also include the aerodynamic forces and aerodynamic moments of each unit wing, as well as the folding and unfolding moments on the folding and unfolding mechanism. In order to facilitate the calculation of generalized forces and generalized moments, we first calculate the resultant external forces of each unit wing and the fuselage in the central coordinate system, which can be expressed as:

[0157] according to Figure 5-Figure 8 The numerical simulation results show that in the low angle of attack range, the drag is small, the lift is increased, the lift-to-drag ratio increases steadily, and the aircraft is suitable for cruising and stable flight; in the medium angle of attack range, A significant descent occurs, at which time the lift increases significantly and the rudder surface deflects negatively. It is suitable for maneuvering flight; in the high angle of attack range, the drag value is large and the lift-to-drag ratio is significantly reduced. At this time, careful operation is required to avoid stalling the aircraft.
[0158] Step S4, analyzing the kinematic characteristics of the aircraft according to the experimental calculation results; comprising the following steps:
