Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sonic boom wave ground simulation tests, and in particular to a test system and method for simulating sonic boom waves based on electric sparks. Background Art

[0002] Sonic boom, as the core bottleneck technology restricting the development of supersonic civil aircraft, has become a key factor limiting its market competitiveness. Therefore, if we want to control the sonic boom intensity of the next generation of supersonic civil airliners within an acceptable range, we need to make breakthroughs in low sonic boom configuration design technology and sonic boom characteristic suppression technology.

[0003] Existing sonic boom models primarily include traditional physical models and deep learning-based models. Traditional sonic boom models typically rely on physical laws and mathematical equations to simulate the phenomenon. For example, the augmented Burgers equation is used to solve the sonic boom problem, and calculations are performed using methods such as proper orthogonal decomposition, discrete adjoints, and regularized pseudoparabolic equations. Deep learning models, using deep neural networks (DNNs) for sonic boom inverse design, can achieve more accurate results. Specifically, the DNN inverts the near-field waveform and then uses the inverse Abel transform to obtain the aircraft area distribution.

[0004] At the same time, sonic boom models also have many limitations. Currently used models mostly assume a stationary atmosphere, but the real atmospheric environment inevitably contains non-stationary disturbances such as atmospheric turbulence. These disturbances often have a great impact on the propagation of sonic boom signals, resulting in a large deviation between the simulation results and the actual situation.

[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to propose a test system and method based on electric spark simulation of sonic boom waves to solve the problem that the sonic boom model in the existing technology does not simulate the atmospheric turbulence environment. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the above facts, in order to solve the problem that the sonic boom model in the prior art fails to simulate the atmospheric turbulence environment, the present invention further designs a test system and method for simulating sonic boom waves based on electric sparks.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0012] The hot wire probe is installed on the left side of the hot wire anemometer, and the hot wire anemometer transmits data to the computer. The hot wire probe faces the nozzle and maintains a certain distance;

[0013] The electric spark sonic explosion source system includes an electric spark igniter and a parabolic reflector;

[0014] The parabolic reflector is installed in the electric spark igniter;

[0016] The optical fiber acoustic probe array is connected to the signal acquisition system through a cable, the signal acquisition system is connected to the computer through a network cable, and the electric spark igniter faces the optical fiber acoustic probe array and maintains a certain distance.

[0018] Step 1: Use the turbulence generation system to simulate different degrees of turbulence intensity and adjust the flow rate of the fan and the width of the nozzle of the turbulence generation system;

[0019] Step 2: Use the hot wire measurement system to measure the turbulence intensity and transmit the data to the computer;

[0020] Step 3: After the turbulence intensity is measured, an N-type wave signal is generated using an electric spark sonic boom source system to characterize typical sonic boom characteristics;

[0021] Step 4: Turn on the turbulence generation system to allow the N-type wave signal generated by the electric spark sonic boom source system to pass through the atmospheric turbulence field, and use the sonic boom wave measurement system to measure the sonic boom wave signal and transmit the data to the computer.

[0022] Furthermore: the fan is driven by a motor to generate flows with different flow rates, the nozzle slides to adjust the opening width, and the airflow generated by the fan is blown out from the nozzle through the jet turbulence disruptor.

[0023] Furthermore, the hot wire probe transmits the sensed quantity to the hot wire anemometer, and the hot wire anemometer is provided with a compensation circuit.

[0024] Furthermore, the electric spark igniter generates a spherical sonic explosion wave which passes through a parabolic reflector to transform the waveform from a spherical shape into a flat shape.

[0025] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0026] 1. The present invention takes into account the influence of atmospheric turbulence on sonic booms, simulates the propagation of sonic booms in the atmospheric turbulence field, and improves the prediction accuracy of far-field sonic booms.

[0027] 2.

The electric spark igniter 6 faces the optical fiber acoustic probe array 8 and maintains a certain distance.

[0051] Example 2: A test method based on electric spark simulating sonic boom waves in this embodiment is implemented based on a test system based on electric spark simulating sonic boom waves described in Example 1. The operation process is as follows:
