Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of wind tunnel model testing, and particularly relates to an elastic deformation testing system and an elastic effect correction method for a continuous wind tunnel model. Background Art
[0002] In modern fluid mechanics research, wind tunnel tests are a key means for analyzing and optimizing aerodynamic performance. Especially for the research of complex flow fields and deformable objects, the accuracy of wind tunnel models is crucial. However, the models used in traditional wind tunnel tests usually assume that the object is a rigid structure, ignoring the elastic deformation effect that the model may produce under the action of airflow. This assumption may not be accurate enough in some high-speed, high-pressure or highly complex flow fields, resulting in a large deviation between the calculated results and the actual situation. Therefore, how to accurately simulate the elastic effect of an object after being affected by airflow in a wind tunnel test has become an urgent problem to be solved in the field of fluid mechanics.
[0003] With the continuous development of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technology, combining numerical simulation and physical experiments has become an important direction in modern fluid mechanics research. In the process of solving large-scale deformation, non-linear aerodynamic characteristics, and high-precision models, rigid models often cannot truly reflect the aerodynamic characteristics and actual performance of objects. Therefore, researching and developing effective elastic effect correction methods is of great practical significance for improving the accuracy of wind tunnel experiments and numerical simulation results.
[0004] When performing elastic effect correction, the synchronous measurement of attitude and deformation is crucial and requires high precision. In order to accurately capture the aerodynamic response of the model during the deformation process in the wind tunnel, it is necessary to synchronously measure the attitude change and deformation state of the model in real time. Due to the large range of model attitude changes, some marker points may be invisible or blocked at specific attitudes. As the model undergoes large attitude changes in the wind tunnel, some marker points may deviate from the field of view or cannot be captured by the camera due to geometric position changes, increasing the difficulty of marker point matching, thereby affecting accurate attitude matching and elastic effect correction.
[0005] To ensure the accuracy of elastic correction, the layout strategy of wing marker points becomes a key challenge. Since interpolation processing is required later, if the marker points are not arranged reasonably, it may lead to a decrease in interpolation accuracy, thereby affecting the accuracy and calculation efficiency of the correction results.
