Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of supersonic civil aircraft design, and in particular relates to a comprehensive design method for a low sonic boom conceptual layout of a supersonic civil aircraft. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid economic development, the demand for civil aviation transportation will increase significantly in the future. Speeding up the flight speed and improving the ride comfort are crucial requirements for the future development of civil aircraft. At present, the mainstream civil aircraft is high subsonic civil aircraft. Although the technology is relatively mature, the flight speed is slow. When flying on long-distance routes, especially transoceanic flights, the flight time is too long, and the ride comfort also drops sharply, which makes it difficult to meet the performance requirements of future civil aircraft. Supersonic civil aircraft can greatly improve the related problems of high subsonic civil aircraft and has become one of the main directions for the future development of civil aircraft.

[0003] According to NASA's "N+X" generation supersonic civil aircraft development plan, small supersonic civil aircraft will be developed first in the future, and the ultimate goal is to develop large supersonic civil aircraft. However, the sonic boom intensity is the core issue that restricts the development of future supersonic civil aircraft. Some technical indicators and requirements formulated by the "N+X" generation supersonic civil aircraft development plan are shown in Table 1, which requires that the sonic boom perceived noise level of supersonic civil aircraft in cruise state should not exceed 70PLdB.

[0004] Table 1 “N+X” generation environment and performance indicators

[0005]

[0006] Years of research have shown that reducing the intensity of sonic booms is an extremely challenging problem: every 1 decibel reduction in the ground-perceived noise level of sonic booms means a significant reduction in sound energy. In addition, it is even more difficult to ensure excellent cruise aerodynamic performance while reducing the sonic boom. Since the intensity of the sonic boom is closely related to the weight and size of the aircraft, it is relatively easier to reduce the sonic boom intensity of small aircraft. Therefore, a variety of low-sonic boom and low-drag layouts for small supersonic civil aircraft and supersonic business jets have been proposed in the prior art, such as: US8453961, US6729577, etc. However, for large supersonic civil aircraft, achieving good low-sonic boom and low-drag performance faces more demanding and complex design challenges. Relevant research shows that when the low-sonic boom and low-drag layout of supersonic business jets with excellent performance is applied to large supersonic civil aircraft, it is found that the performance is completely unable to meet the indicators.

[0007] Therefore, with a view to the development of future large supersonic civil aircraft, there is still a major gap in the low sonic boom and low drag layout of large supersonic civil aircraft. Summary of the invention
