Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of aerospace, and particularly to a method for constructing atmospheric data of an embedded atmospheric data sensor system over the entire flight envelope. Background Art
[0002] Due to the advantages of good aerodynamic characteristics, small impact on the overall performance of the aircraft, low radar cross-section (RCS), good stealth performance, and effective reduction of aerodynamic heat of the flying wing aerodynamic layout technology, it has been widely used in the aerodynamic design of aircraft and hypersonic weapons. The embedded atmospheric data sensor system designed to be conformal with and installed on the aircraft surface not only does not affect the overall aerodynamic and stealth performance of the aircraft, but also can provide redundant atmospheric data such as barometric altitude, Mach number, airspeed, angle of attack, and sideslip angle through a multi-sensor array. The embedded atmospheric data sensor system is the optimal solution for the atmospheric data measurement device of the flying wing aerodynamic layout aircraft.
[0003] In the prior art, there are documents on the design of embedded atmospheric data sensors. The atmospheric data such as barometric altitude, Mach number, angle of attack, and sideslip angle that can meet the usage accuracy of the aircraft are obtained through the three-point method and the least square method based on the pressure sensed by the pressure measurement holes arranged in a cross shape at the front end of the blunt body, but it is not applicable to the flying wing aerodynamic layout aircraft. The total pressure, static pressure, angle of attack pressure coefficient, and sideslip angle pressure coefficient disclosed in the patent "GB2424285A - Method and apparatus for extending the useful range of air data parameter calculation in a flush air data system" for the embedded atmospheric data system of the flying wing aerodynamic layout aircraft are only applicable to constant flight speeds and constant flight altitudes, and cannot meet the usage requirements of atmospheric data over the entire flight envelope.
[0004] The atmospheric data such as total pressure, static pressure, Mach number, angle of attack, and sideslip angle disclosed in the patent "GB2432914A - Aviation data system based on artificial intelligence" for the embedded atmospheric data system of the flying wing aerodynamic layout aircraft are obtained through neural network algorithms. Although the neural network algorithm has strong non-linear fitting ability, there are defects such as the error performance function falling into a local minimum, and inappropriate numbers of hidden layer neurons may also lead to under-fitting or over-fitting of the network. In addition, the selection of the learning rate lacks theoretical guidance, and the atmospheric data obtained solely by relying on the neural network algorithm cannot guarantee the accuracy of the atmospheric data within the entire flight envelope of the aircraft. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the above deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for constructing atmospheric data of an embedded atmospheric data sensor system over the entire flight envelope.

If it is not valid, re-collect the pressure sensed by the embedded atmospheric data sensor. If it is valid, calculate the second coefficient K M-2 at different Mach numbers M according to the pressure sensed by the embedded atmospheric data sensor; S33. Judge the relationship between the first coefficient K M-1 and the second coefficient K M-2 . If |K M-1 - K M-2 | < 0.002, output the Mach number M; if |K M-1 - K M-2 | ≥ 0.002, then increase K M-1 by 0.0001 and return to step S31.

Calculate the angle of attack, sideslip angle, total pressure, and static pressure according to the linear relationship between the pressure operation sensed by the embedded air data sensor at different Mach numbers and the angle of attack and the linear relationship with the sideslip angle.
[0016] Furthermore, the specific calculation methods of the angle of attack, sideslip angle, total pressure, and static pressure in S43 are as follows:
