[0002] For flight simulation equipment, the realism of flight performance is a key element of its simulation; and for helicopters, such as helicopters, the interference of rotor downwash airflow on aerodynamic components is an important part of helicopter flight performance simulation.
[0003] In related technologies, the simulation of the interference of rotor downwash on helicopter aerodynamic components is achieved in two ways: (1) The CFD method is used to numerically simulate the interference flow field of the helicopter rotor and calculate the dynamic aerodynamic load of the helicopter components. However, this method cannot reflect the characteristics of the helicopter during the transition speed stage, such as pitching up and dropping altitude. The simulation accuracy is low, resulting in inaccurate aerodynamic load results. Moreover, the algorithm takes a long time to run, which is difficult to meet the requirements of real-time calculation of flight simulation equipment. (2) A set of differential equations of helicopter flight dynamics is established. The differential equations are linearized with small disturbances under a specific trim state, and the multi-rotor interference problem is simulated from the level of basic physical theory. However, this method is generally only for a specific trim point and it is difficult to realize the simulation of infinitely many states within the full envelope of the helicopter by flight simulation equipment.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0024] The following is combined Figures 1-5 The present invention describes a helicopter aerodynamic analysis method and apparatus that takes into account the interference of rotor on aerodynamic components.
[0025] Figure 1 This is one of the flowcharts illustrating the helicopter aerodynamic analysis method considering rotor interference with aerodynamic components provided by this invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps: Step 110: Calculate the critical inflection point of the positional relationship between the downwash airflow of the helicopter rotor and multiple aerodynamic components, as well as the helicopter's tail roll angle, based on the rear chamfer of the helicopter rotor.
[0026] In this step, the rear chamfer of the helicopter rotor is the angle at which the rotor cone tilts backward due to the forward aerodynamic load. This angle directly affects the direction of the rotor thrust vector: when the rear chamfer increases, the rearward component of the thrust vector increases, causing the impact position of the downwash airflow on the downstream aerodynamic components (such as the horizontal stabilizer and vertical stabilizer) to shift backward.
[0027] In this embodiment, the critical inflection point can be the location where the airflow separation or interference intensity abruptly changes when the angle of attack between the current washing airflow velocity direction and the aerodynamic component (such as the horizontal stabilizer) reaches a specific threshold.
[0028] In this embodiment, the wake inclination angle is the angle between the rotor wake centerline and the horizontal plane, which is determined by the back chamfer and the flight state.
[0029] For example, the wake inclination angle can be calculated based on the critical point and inflection point of the interference coefficient of each aerodynamic component affected by the rotor downwash airflow.
[0030] In this embodiment, multiple aerodynamic components, including the helicopter fuselage, horizontal stabilizer, and vertical stabilizer, are analyzed aerodynamically under the interference of the helicopter rotor. This achieves the decomposition of the forces acting on the entire helicopter and improves the accuracy of the aerodynamic analysis.
[0031] Step 120: Establish a linear relationship between the interference coefficient of the critical inflection point and the wake tilt angle, and obtain the target three-axis velocity of the target aerodynamic component under the interference of the helicopter rotor based on the linear relationship and the three-axis velocity of the helicopter, and analyze the aerodynamic force of the helicopter based on the target three-axis velocity; wherein, the target aerodynamic component belongs to multiple aerodynamic components.
[0032] In this step, linear correlation can refer to the fact that the interference coefficient between the wake tilt angle and the critical inflection point has a linear correlation. Within different wake tilt angle ranges, the interference coefficient between the wake tilt angle and the critical inflection point can be positively correlated or negatively correlated.
[0033] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the relationship between the interference coefficient and the wake tilt angle provided by the present invention. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, it is assumed that the interference coefficients at the critical inflection points are k1 and k2, respectively. Typically, max (k1, k2) The interference coefficient is within the full speed envelope. k Following the tail tilt angle Relationship of change such as Figure 2 As shown, the linear correlation function can be calculated from this. k( ) .
[0034] In this embodiment, different pneumatic components correspond to different target triaxial velocities.
[0035] In this embodiment, the above linear correlation describes the pneumatic components at different wake inclination angles. The corresponding critical inflection point interference coefficient can be used to deduce the target triaxial velocity of each aerodynamic component under helicopter rotor interference by combining the critical inflection point interference coefficient of each aerodynamic component and the triaxial velocity of the helicopter.
[0036] In this embodiment, after determining the target triaxial velocity of each aerodynamic component, the angle of attack and sideslip angle of each component are calculated respectively, and then the starting coefficient of each aerodynamic component is derived and the aerodynamic force and its torque are calculated to realize the force analysis of each aerodynamic component of the helicopter.
[0037] This invention provides a helicopter aerodynamic analysis method that considers rotor interference with aerodynamic components. It calculates the critical inflection point of the positional relationship between the helicopter rotor's downwash airflow and multiple aerodynamic components, as well as the helicopter's wake angle, using the rotor's back chamfer. Then, it establishes a linear correlation between the interference coefficient of the critical inflection point and the wake angle. Based on this linear correlation and the helicopter's three-axis velocities, it obtains the target three-axis velocities of the target aerodynamic components under rotor interference. Finally, it analyzes the helicopter's aerodynamics based on these target three-axis velocities, improving the simulation effect of helicopter flight performance and enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of helicopter aerodynamic analysis.
[0038] In some embodiments, the critical inflection point includes the coordinates of the front boundary point and the rear boundary point of the helicopter rotor during rotation, as well as the coordinates of the front boundary point and the rear boundary point of the side profile of each aerodynamic component. The critical inflection point is obtained through the following steps: the coordinates of the front boundary point and the rear boundary point are obtained based on the rear chamfer, the center coordinates of the helicopter rotor in the helicopter structural coordinate system, and the radius of the helicopter rotor; the coordinates of the front boundary point are determined based on the front boundary point coordinates, and the coordinates of the rear boundary point are determined based on the rear boundary point coordinates.
[0039] In this embodiment, the origin of the helicopter's structural coordinate system is set at the helicopter's plane of symmetry, and the XYZ axes of the structural coordinate system are forward, rightward, and downward along the helicopter, respectively. Furthermore, during normal flight, except for high-speed side-flight, the rotor's interference with aerodynamic components is mainly manifested along the X and Z axes. Therefore, this example uses a helicopter side profile for calculation. Assume the rotor center coordinates are Given a rotor radius of R and a rotor back chamfer of A1S (back chamfer is positive), then the forward boundary point during rotor rotation... and back boundary point The coordinates are obtained using the following formulas: ; .
[0040] In this embodiment, taking the fuselage as an example, assuming the helicopter fuselage is in the structural coordinate system, the front and rear boundary positions of the side section are respectively... and The included angle is calculated from the relative positions of different aerodynamic components and the rotor (including...). , , The following formula can be used to calculate: ; ; ; ; .
[0041] in, The wake angle is the position of the front boundary of the side section of the aerodynamic component and the position of the rear boundary of the helicopter rotor during rotation. This represents the wake angle corresponding to the rear boundary position of the side profile and the rear boundary position of the helicopter rotor. The wake angle is the position of the front boundary of the side section and the position of the front boundary of the helicopter rotor. The tail tilt angle is the position of the rear boundary of the side profile and the position of the front boundary of the helicopter rotor.
[0042] This invention provides a helicopter aerodynamic analysis method considering the interference of the rotor on aerodynamic components. The critical inflection point includes the coordinates of the front and rear boundary points of the helicopter rotor during rotation, as well as the front and rear boundary coordinates of the side profiles of each aerodynamic component. The front and rear boundary point coordinates are obtained by using the back chamfer, the center coordinates of the helicopter rotor in the helicopter structural coordinate system, and the radius of the helicopter rotor. The front boundary point coordinates of the side profile are determined based on the front boundary point coordinates, and the rear boundary coordinates of the side profile are determined based on the rear boundary point coordinates. This method can quickly determine the critical inflection points and wake tilt angles of different aerodynamic components, providing reliable data support for subsequent calculation of the target three-axis velocities of each aerodynamic component under the interference of the helicopter rotor, and improving the efficiency of the algorithm.
[0043] In some embodiments, before establishing a linear correlation between the interference coefficient of the critical inflection point and the wake tilt angle, the helicopter aerodynamic analysis method considering the rotor's interference with aerodynamic components further includes: sorting the included angles corresponding to the front boundary point coordinates, rear boundary point coordinates, front boundary coordinates of the side profile, and rear boundary coordinates of the side profile during the rotation process of the helicopter rotor according to the dimensional relationship between the helicopter rotor and multiple aerodynamic components.

This quantifies the geometric relationship between the rotor boundary points and aerodynamic components, predicts the critical inflection point of the wake tilt angle, and provides input conditions for the abrupt change analysis of the interference coefficient.
[0046] In some embodiments, the aerodynamic analysis of the helicopter based on the target three-axis velocity includes: calculating the angle of attack and sideslip angle of the target aerodynamic components based on the target three-axis velocity; calculating the aerodynamic coefficients of the target aerodynamic components based on the angle of attack and sideslip angle, and calculating the aerodynamic force and torque of the target aerodynamic components based on the aerodynamic coefficients; and performing force calculation on the helicopter based on the aerodynamic force and torque corresponding to each aerodynamic component.
[0047] In this embodiment, the target aerodynamic component is taken as the fuselage of a helicopter for illustration; this embodiment achieves the force calculation of the helicopter through the following steps: (1) Calculate the target three-axis velocity of the computer body according to the following formula: + V ; in, For rotor induced velocity, V The three-axis speeds are the speeds of the fuselage along the corresponding axis system.
