TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a fluctuating hydrofoil experimental device and method, in particular to a double fluctuating hydrofoil hydrodynamic interference measurement and flow field visualization experimental device and method, belonging to the technical field of bionic engineering. BACKGROUND
[0002] Bionic robotic fish has been playing a unique role in the fields of underwater resource exploration, marine environmental protection and military reconnaissance. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of engineering demand, a single robotic fish is often difficult to complete complex systematic tasks. In this case, the way of double robotic fish formation cooperative operation shows irreplaceable advantages. For robotic fish formation design, double model fish hydrodynamic response measurement test is the key and basis. At present, the mature technical scheme mostly uses the wing type or thin plate of pitch and heave to replace the fluctuating robotic fish body. This pitch and heave action is still quite different from the undulating swing of the robotic fish body, and it is difficult to accurately simulate the undulating motion of the robotic fish. In addition, although the traditional particle image velocimetry device can provide high-precision flow field information, it depends on the post-processing program and cannot visualize the wake field of the fluctuating hydrofoil in real time. Moreover, the flow around the fluctuating hydrofoil has three-dimensional effect, and the traditional two-dimensional particle image velocimetry device is difficult to fully capture the three-dimensional flow field information, while the three-dimensional particle image velocimetry device is still expensive at present. At the present stage, a wake visualization device based on pulse line can conveniently provide real-time three-dimensional flow display in the test and ensure low test cost. In view of the above problems and needs, it is necessary to design a double fluctuating hydrofoil hydrodynamic interference measurement and flow field visualization experimental device and test method, which not only meets the actual engineering demand, but also has important application value.

Preferably, the high-speed camera 19 includes a high-resolution sensor that can provide clear image quality at a high frame rate. The two hydrofoil position adjustment structures are detachably mounted side by side on the circulating water tank. The hydrofoil position adjustment structures are used to control the position of the wave hydrofoils and provide boundary support for the wave hydrofoils. The hydrofoil position adjustment structure includes a horizontal sliding beam 13, a vertical lifting rod 14, and a connecting slider 16. The horizontal sliding beam 13 is connected to the vertical lifting rod 14 via the connecting slider 16. The horizontal sliding beam 13 is located at the top of the circulating water tank, and the vertical lifting rod 14 is located inside the circulating water tank to control the position of the wave hydrofoils. The six-component force sensor 15 is mounted on the vertical lifting rod 14 to measure the resultant force and torque in three directions of the wave hydrofoils. Preferably, the six-component force sensor 15 and the high-speed camera 19 are communicatively connected to a remote data receiving device, such as a computer, a mobile phone, or a tablet, which supports remote control and real-time data transmission.

The flexible hydrofoil wing body 2 is used for wavy swing. The hydrofoil internal truss 4 is installed inside the undulating hydrofoil. The hydrofoil internal truss 4 provides the necessary internal support for the flexible hydrofoil wing body 2, so that the flexible hydrofoil wing body 2 can avoid instability and damage due to excessive bending while maintaining sufficient flexibility.

The honeycomb rectifier 9 is arranged inside the water tank container 7. Preferably, the honeycomb rectifier 9 is composed of a honeycomb structure and is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped. The honeycomb rectifier 9 can reduce the turbulence of the flow through the channels formed by the honeycomb structure, ensuring that the fluid can produce uniform incoming flow conditions after passing through the honeycomb rectifier 9.

The vertical lifting rod 14 is connected to the rigid hydrofoil head 1 to control the height of the hydrofoil. The horizontal slider 11 is mounted within the horizontal guide rail 10, and the locking device 12 is mounted 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 be quickly activated 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 mounted 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.
