[0063] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the implementation of this application clearer, the technical scheme in the implementation of this application will be described in more detail in combination with the drawings in the implementation of this application. In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions. The described implementation is a part of the implementation of this application, not all of the implementations. The implementation described below with reference to the drawings is exemplary and is intended to be used to explain this application, and cannot be understood as a limitation on this application. Based on the implementation in this application, all other implementations obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. The implementation of this application is described in detail below in combination with the drawings.

[0064] The first aspect of the present application provides a method for determining the pressure of an aircraft fuel tank, such as Figure 1 As shown, it mainly includes:

[0065] Step S1, obtaining the coordinates of each microelement of the aircraft fuel tank pre-divided into microelement on the deflection surface, wherein the rotation center of the deflection surface is the coordinate system point, the horizontal direction is the x-axis, and the vertical direction is the y-axis;

[0066] Step S2, converting the coordinates of each micro-element according to the deflection angle of the aircraft in the deflection plane to obtain the corrected coordinates of each micro-element;

[0067] Step S3, determining the fuel level according to the principle that the proportion of micro-elements with fuel matches the remaining percentage of fuel;

[0068] Step S4: determining the pressure distribution at the bottom of the fuel tank according to the fuel level and the deflection angle.

[0069] Before step S1, the aircraft fuel tank is first divided into micro-elements within the deflection surface. Generally speaking, during the flight of an aircraft, there are various movements such as pitch, yaw, roll and composite forms. The present application is applicable to the calculation of fuel tank pressure distribution under various single movements. For example, in some optional implementations, in step S1, when the aircraft deflects in heading, the deflection angle is the angle of attack, and the deflection surface is the plane where the pitch direction is located. When the aircraft deflects sideways, the deflection angle is the roll angle, and the deflection surface is the plane where the roll direction is located.

[0070] Taking pitch as an example, the effect of the aircraft's flight angle of attack on the fuel level in the fuel tank can be simplified into the following mathematical model: when a rectangle with a length of a and a width of b is rotated by an angle of θ, calculate the change in the height h of the fuel level, as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the rectangle is then divided into m*n equal parts along the length and width. Figure 3 shown.

[0071] In some optional implementations, in step S1, the aircraft fuel tank is a rectangle in the deflection surface, and when performing microelement division, the length and width directions of the rectangle are equally divided into 500-2000 parts.

[0072] After the micro-element is divided, a rectangular coordinate system is established with the rotation center as the coordinate origin, and each micro-element corresponds to a coordinate. Specifically, in some optional implementations, in step S1, the coordinates (x i ,y j )for:

[0073] x i =ai / m;

[0074] y j = bj / n;

[0075] Among them, x i is the horizontal coordinate of the ith element among the m elements divided in the length direction of the rectangle, y jis the ordinate of the jth element among the n elements divided in the width direction of the rectangle, a is the length of the rectangle, and b is the width of the rectangle.

[0076] After the initial coordinates of each micro-element are determined, the new coordinates of the micro-element can be determined after the aircraft is deflected. For example, in some optional implementations, the coordinates of each micro-element (x i ,y j ) to obtain the corrected coordinates (x′) of each microelement i ,y′ j ):

[0077]

[0078] Where θ is the deflection angle of the aircraft within the deflection plane.

[0079] In this embodiment, the rectangle rotates counterclockwise around the origin by an angle θ as shown in Figure 4 shown.

[0080] Then in step S3, after the oil tank rotates, the liquid level remains horizontal under the action of gravity, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the fuel area should satisfy that the vertical coordinate of any microelement with fuel should be less than or equal to the fuel liquid level height, based on which the fuel liquid level height can be calculated using the dichotomy method.

[0081] In some optional implementations, step S3 further includes:

[0082] Step S31, taking the length of the rectangle as the initial fuel level height for iterative calculation;

[0083] Step S32, counting the percentage of the number of micro-elements whose ordinate values ​​in the micro-element correction coordinates are less than the fuel level height in the current iteration step to the total number of micro-elements;

[0084] Step S33, when the percentage is greater than the remaining percentage of the fuel amount, the fuel liquid level is halved as the new fuel liquid level; otherwise, the average of the fuel liquid level calculated in the first two iterations is used as the new fuel liquid level;

[0085] Step S34: When the difference between the percentage and the remaining percentage of the fuel volume is less than a set threshold, the iterative operation is stopped, and the latest fuel level height is taken as the final fuel level height.

[0086] In step S31, the initial fuel level h0 = max(a, b). In step S32, it can be understood that in the first iteration, the ordinate values ​​in all micro-element correction coordinates are less than h0, so the calculated percentage is 1. In step S33, the new fuel level h1 = h0 / 2 can be calculated. However, in the second cycle, in step S32, the percentage calculated by h1 may be greater than the remaining percentage of the fuel amount, or it may be less than the remaining percentage of the fuel amount. In step S33, when the percentage calculated by h1 is less than the remaining percentage of the fuel amount, the new fuel level h2 = (h0+h1) / 2.

[0087] The above steps are executed in a loop. In step S34, when the difference is less than the set threshold, it is considered that a relatively accurate fuel level height is obtained. The set threshold here is usually 1%. Obviously, as the number of microelements approaches infinity, the error of the numerical algorithm approaches zero.

[0088] Finally, in step S4, the pressure distribution at the bottom of the fuel tank can be calculated. From the calculation result of the fuel height, it can be seen that the pressure at the bottom of the fuel tank is not a mean value but presents a linear distribution.

[0089] In some optional implementations, step S4 further includes:

[0090] Step S41, taking the fuel level as the maximum height compared to one side of the bottom of the fuel tank, and calculating the maximum pressure;

[0091] Step S42, subtracting the difference caused by the deflection angle from the fuel level as the minimum height compared to the other side of the bottom of the fuel tank, and calculating the minimum pressure;

[0092] Step S43: For any position from one side to the other side of the bottom of the fuel tank, perform linear interpolation between the maximum pressure and the minimum pressure to obtain the pressure distribution at the bottom of the fuel tank.

[0093] In step S41, the maximum pressure is: P max = ρgh;

[0094] In step S42, the minimum pressure is: P min =ρg(h-asinθ).

[0095] Where ρ is the fuel density. The density of aviation fuel is usually 7.8 g / cm 3 ; g is the acceleration due to gravity, which can be determined based on the flight altitude.

[0096] In some optional implementations, step S4 further includes:

[0097] Step S5: optimizing the strength of the bottom structure of the fuel tank according to the pressure distribution at the bottom of the fuel tank.

[0098] In this embodiment, the pressure distribution change at the bottom of the fuel tank can be obtained according to the flight conditions, and then the fuel tank can be strength checked or the structural dimensions, materials, etc. can be optimized to improve its bearing strength.

[0099] By automating the above method through programming, the relationship between the fuel height h and the aircraft angle of attack θ under different fuel amounts can be obtained as follows: Figure 5 As shown in the figure, by checking the figure, the fuel tank pressure distribution at different angles of attack of the aircraft with different fuel amounts can be obtained.

[0100] The present application can quickly calculate the fuel level position of the fuel tank under different flight deflection angles, obtain a more accurate fuel tank pressure distribution, and provide a reference for the static strength design of the fuel tank.

[0101] The second aspect of the present application provides an aircraft fuel tank pressure determination device corresponding to the above method, mainly comprising:

[0102] The micro-element coordinate acquisition module is used to obtain the micro-element coordinates of each micro-element of the aircraft fuel tank on the deflection surface, wherein the rotation center of the deflection surface is the coordinate system point, the horizontal direction is the x-axis, and the vertical direction is the y-axis;
