Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of helicopter dynamics design, and in particular relates to a rapid evaluation method for the frequency design of helicopter rotor-body coupling stability. Background Art

[0002] Helicopter rotors with spherically flexible hubs—designed to be shimmy-soft—may experience rotor-airframe coupling stability issues. The coupling between the rotor system and the helicopter can cause vibrations to persist, amplify, and even diverge, significantly impacting helicopter vibrations. The essence of the rotor-airframe coupling stability issue lies in the coupling of the rotor shimmy's retreating frequency with the airframe mode at the hub center within the rotational plane. The two systems mutually excite each other. When the system damping is insufficient, this exacerbates the rotor shimmy motion and the airframe's motion on the landing gear, a phenomenon known as ground resonance. When a ground-operating helicopter experiences an initial external disturbance, the rotor blades shimmy in a retreating pattern, generating unbalanced centrifugal forces that excite airframe vibrations on the landing gear. The hub center, as a point on the airframe, vibrates along with the airframe. However, as the fundamental connection point of the rotor system, the hub center's vibrations, in turn, contribute to the rotor's motion within the rotational plane through base excitation, affecting (exacerbating or weakening) the inherent vibrations of the individual blades. If the vibration characteristics of these two vibration systems satisfy a specific relationship: the frequency of the centrifugal exciting force generated by the swing of the rotor system is the same as or close to a certain order natural vibration frequency of the entire aircraft on the landing gear, and the vibration mode corresponding to this order natural frequency can cause the center of the hub to vibrate in the rotation plane, and at the same time, the work consumed by the damping of the blade damper and the landing gear system in one vibration cycle is less than the work done by the above-mentioned exciting force on the system, then the swing motion of the blade and the vibration of the entire aircraft on the landing gear will aggravate each other, forming a vicious cycle, and within a few seconds the amplitude can be large enough to destroy the helicopter.

[0003] The inherent condition for the occurrence of rotor and fuselage coupling stability problems is that the damping of the blade damper and the landing gear system is large enough, or the frequency of the centrifugal excitation force generated by the rotor system's swing is far enough away from the vibration frequency of the entire aircraft on the landing gear. Then, the vibrations excited by the external interference of the above two vibration systems will weaken each other until they disappear, and the ground resonance problem will not occur.

[0004] Therefore, in the early stage of design, the key to avoiding the rotor-body coupling stability problem is to reasonably configure the relationship between the rotor system's swing-back mode and the fuselage mode.

[0005] The traditional method is to use the overall parameters and preliminary performance parameters of the landing gear to calculate the ground resonance stability curve in the early stage of design, which lacks a relatively intuitive optimization design link; in the engineering design stage, the hub center dynamic characteristics test is carried out using the test prototype to obtain the modal parameters of the fuselage on the landing gear, and then the ground resonance stability curve is calculated. Since the prototype has been completed in trial production, the optimization design cycle is long and the cost is high.

[0006] This invention uses a rapid evaluation method for rotor-airframe coupled stability frequency design on a specific helicopter to conduct rotor-airframe coupled stability design. Experimental verification demonstrates that this method's accuracy meets engineering requirements. It has high engineering value in analyzing rotor-airframe coupled stability, troubleshooting stability issues, and developing stability control plans for new aircraft. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Aiming at the problem of rotor-body coupling stability, the present invention proposes a rapid evaluation method for the frequency design of helicopter rotor-body coupling stability. Based on the relationship between the rotor system characteristic frequency and the body modal frequency and the rotor speed, the resonance center speed and the speed stability margin are obtained, and the rotor-body coupling stability is rapidly evaluated. Based on the result of the rapid evaluation, it is determined whether the speed stability margin meets the design requirements. In this way, the optimization design of the rotor system characteristic frequency and the body modal frequency is carried out, and it can be ensured that the rotor-body coupling stability meets the design requirements in the early design stage.

[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is achieved as follows:

[0014] Step 5: Determine the resonance center, which is the intersection of the shimmy backward frequency curve and the four body modal frequency curves;

[0015] Step 6: Determine whether the resonance center falls within the range defined by the speed stability margin vertical line. If not, the evaluation is qualified.

[0016] Step 7: If yes, the evaluation fails and frequency optimization design is required. Repeat steps 1-6 until the design requirements are met.

[0017] As a further solution of the present invention: the parameters of the rotor system include the rated speed of the rotor, the mass static moment of a blade, the rotational inertia of a blade, the hydraulic damper swing elastic line stiffness, the distance from the hub center to the swing hinge, and the distance from the swing hinge to the swing damper.

[0022] Step 22: According to the above swing angle stiffness , and other rotor system parameters, calculate the rotor system shimmy retreat frequency at different rotor speeds. The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0023] ;

[0024] in, represents the first-order oscillation retreat frequency, ; Indicates the distance from the hub center to the swing hinge, ; represents the mass moment of a blade about its hinge, ; represents the moment of inertia of a blade about its flap hinge, ; represents the rotor speed frequency, The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0025] ;

[0026] in, Indicates the rotor speed, .

[0027] As a further solution of the present invention: Step 3 is specifically: calculating the mode of the body on the landing gear according to the full maneuverability characteristic model, and obtaining the frequency of the body on the landing gear, including the first-order heading frequency, the first-order lateral frequency, the second-order heading frequency, and the second-order lateral frequency.

[0028] As a further solution of the present invention: whether the design requirements are met can also be determined by:

[0029] According to the frequency-speed diagram obtained in step 4, the resonance center speed is obtained;

[0030] The speed stability margin is calculated through the resonance center speed. The specific calculation formula is as follows:

[0031] ;

[0032] in, Indicates the speed stability margin; represents the resonance center speed, ; Indicates the rated rotor speed, ;

[0033] Determine whether the speed stability margin meets the requirements. The judgment conditions are as follows:

[0034] When the speed stability margin is greater than 15%, the design requirements are met and the evaluation ends;

[0035] When the speed stability margin is less than or equal to 15%, it does not meet the design requirements and frequency optimization design is required.

[0038] Step 72: Optimize the design of parameters such as the improved landing gear stiffness and the body elastic stiffness to change the body modal frequency.

[0039] In a second aspect, the present invention discloses an electronic device, comprising: a processor and a memory storing a computer program, wherein when the processor runs the computer program, the steps of the above-mentioned rapid evaluation method are executed.

[0041] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0042] 1. This invention uses rotor parameters and simulated airframe modal frequency parameters as inputs during the initial stages of helicopter design. From a frequency design perspective, it rapidly assesses the resonance center between the rotor shimmy frequency and the airframe modal frequency, thereby determining the ground resonance speed margin. To ensure the safety of helicopter ground tests and flights, frequency design analysis methods can be used to eliminate the possibility of ground resonance in the early stages of design. This effectively guides the design and determines the limit values ​​of rotor parameters and adjustable parameters that affect airframe frequency, eliminating the possibility of ground resonance at this early stage.

[0043] 2. The present invention identifies the influencing parameters of the mutual coupling between the rotor system and the fuselage structure, and explains the mechanism, key factors and effective solutions of the mutual coupling, thereby effectively guiding the design. In the past, the rotor-body coupling oscillation retreat frequency could only be estimated after a series of tests such as the hub center dynamic characteristics test and the landing gear static compression characteristics test were carried out. This took a long time and was costly, making it difficult to change the design or take stability control measures. Compared with traditional methods, the design method proposed in the present invention can quickly and accurately predict the rotor-body coupling oscillation retreat frequency in the early stages of design. The input parameter operation is also simpler and easier, and it can more realistically simulate the actual situation, forming a rapid evaluation and analysis method for helicopter rotor-body coupling calculations. It has high engineering value in design work such as ground resonance and tail rotor and tail boom coupling stability. Understanding the rotor-body coupling stability in the early stages of model development and formulating a stability control plan are of great significance to ensuring the flight safety of the helicopter. The present invention forms an evaluation method to achieve the purpose of avoiding the risk of rotor-body coupling stability at various development stages of the model.

[0044] 3. Relevant application examples show that according to the scheme of the present invention, a frequency design method that meets the requirements of engineering precision can be obtained, ensuring the safety requirements of rotor-body coupling stability, providing an accurate and reliable calculation method for rotor-body coupling stability design, and being able to carry out frequency design more accurately at all stages of model design. It has high universality and engineering application value.
