Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a wave hydrofoil experimental device and method, in particular to a double wave hydrofoil hydrodynamic interference measurement and flow field visualization experimental device and method, belonging to the technical field of bionic engineering. Background Art
[0002] Bionic robot fish have been playing a unique role in underwater resource exploration, marine environmental protection and military reconnaissance. In recent years, with the continuous increase in engineering needs, a single robot fish is often difficult to complete complex systematic tasks. In this case, the collaborative operation of a dual robot fish formation shows irreplaceable advantages. For the design of robot fish formations, conducting a dual model fish hydrodynamic response measurement test is the key and basis. At present, mature technical solutions mostly use pitching and sinking wing or thin plates to replace the undulating robot fish body. This pitching and sinking action is still quite different from the wave-like swing of the robot fish body, and it is difficult to accurately simulate the undulating motion of the robot fish. In addition, although the traditional particle image velocimeter can provide high-precision flow field information, it relies on post-processing programs and cannot visualize the wake field of the undulating hydrofoil in real time. In addition, the flow around the undulating hydrofoil has a three-dimensional effect. The traditional two-dimensional particle image velocimeter is difficult to fully capture the three-dimensional flow field information, and the three-dimensional particle image velocimeter is still expensive at present. At present, a wake visualization device based on pulse lines can conveniently provide real-time three-dimensional flow display in the experiment and ensure low test costs. In view of the above problems and needs, it is necessary to design a hydrodynamic interference measurement and flow field visualization experimental device and its test method for double-wave hydrofoils, which can not only meet actual engineering needs but also have important application value.

The vertical lifting rod 14 is connected to the rigid hydrofoil head 1 to control the lifting height of the wave hydrofoil. The horizontal slider 11 is installed in the horizontal guide rail 10, and the locking device 12 is installed on the outside of the horizontal slider 11. Preferably, the locking device 12 is a locking nut that conforms to the horizontal sliding beam 13. The position of the hydrofoil is controlled by the horizontal slider 11, and the locking device 12 can take effect quickly after the position is adjusted to ensure that the position of the hydrofoil will not drift due to vibration or external interference. The dye tank 17 is fixedly installed on the connecting slider 16 and is used to store dye; the dye tube 18 is installed between the dye tank 17 and the dye nozzle 6 and is used to connect the dye tank 17 and the dye nozzle 6 to transfer the dye in the dye tank 17 to the dye nozzle 6.
