Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of experimental apparatus technology, and in particular to a jet interference test model apparatus for variable nozzle opening. Background Technology
[0002] Jet direct force control technology is a novel aerodynamic control technology that utilizes the reaction force generated by the engine to change the attitude or trajectory of an aircraft. Its purpose is to compensate for the inefficiency of aerodynamic control surfaces and to rapidly change flight states. It has advantages such as being unaffected by incoming dynamic pressure and having a fast response speed, and is being applied to an increasing number of aircraft. The main applications of jet direct force control in aircraft include attitude control and trajectory control.
[0003] Lateral jets interact with the external flow, forming a complex flow structure that includes shock waves, separated flows, and mutual interference, resulting in additional disturbance forces and moments. These forces and moments are closely related to and highly sensitive to the flight environment (such as flight altitude, Mach number, and attitude angles), exhibiting strong nonlinear characteristics. Wind tunnel testing is an important research tool for studying the disturbance characteristics of lateral jets, and the experimental results obtained are also an important basis for verifying the accuracy of numerical simulation methods.
[0004] In practice, lateral control engines use a plug cone to adjust the jet flow rate through the engine nozzle throat, thereby regulating and controlling engine thrust. To complete ground tests with nozzles of different openings, multiple model nozzle sections are typically fabricated. This process is time-consuming and costly, and requires multiple nozzle section replacements during testing, which is inconvenient for wind tunnel testing. Furthermore, multiple nozzle replacements may lead to inconsistencies in the model's installation status.
[0005] Therefore, it is desirable to develop a jet interference test model device for variable nozzle opening. This model device can quickly change the nozzle opening by changing different nozzle plug cones on a set of reference models, which is convenient for completing lateral jet interference wind tunnel tests under different nozzle opening conditions.
