Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a variable amplitude high frequency gust generator, belonging to the technical field of wind tunnel test equipment. Background Art

[0002] It is almost inevitable that an aircraft will encounter gusts of different wind speeds and directions during flight, which will bring additional structural dynamic loads and wing elastic modal vibrations, making it difficult for pilots to control, reducing passenger comfort, and even causing aircraft turbulence, ultimately causing fatigue damage or damage. For bombers performing missions at low altitudes, it may also seriously affect weapon delivery and flight safety. If a missile flying in the air encounters gusts, it will cause rigid body motion and elastic vibration of the missile, which may affect the missile's structural safety, the reliability of electrical equipment, and the accuracy of its hits. Therefore, gust load prediction research must be carried out during the aircraft design phase.

[0003] At present, wind tunnel tests are usually used to predict the impact of gusts on aircraft. Gust-related wind tunnel tests can not only simulate the gust characteristics of aircraft more accurately, but also verify the accuracy and reliability of numerical simulation results, and thus have attracted more extensive attention. In order to carry out gust load mitigation wind tunnel test research, it is necessary to develop a gust generator device.

[0004] The existing gust generator device has a complex structure and is difficult to handle high-frequency gust problems. In addition, it is difficult to adjust the amplitude of the existing gust generator, which limits the role of the gust test. Summary of the invention

[0015] 5. The gust generator of the present invention realizes synchronous driving of the blades through a connecting rod slider mechanism. The blades are connected to the slider. When the driving mechanism drives the guide rail to move, the connecting rod slider mechanism converts the reciprocating motion of the guide rail into the rotation of two groups of blades. Its synchronous rotation method is a parallelogram mechanism. This arrangement can effectively avoid the internal stress of the blade assembly caused by gravity factors and installation errors, and solve the problem of poor gust generation effect and affecting the accuracy of wind tunnel test data.
