[0087] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. The embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0090] Step S2: Calculate the pitching moment coefficient of the nose wheel based on the initial iterative landing gear position;
[0091] Step S3: When the pitching moment coefficient of the front wheel is less than the remaining safety moment coefficient, the initial iterative landing gear position is moved forward by a set ratio until the new pitching moment coefficient of the front wheel is not less than the remaining safety moment coefficient.
[0092] Step S4: Based on the pitching moment coefficient of the front wheel when it is not less than the remaining safety moment coefficient and the pitching moment coefficient of the front wheel in the previous iteration, interpolate the main landing gear position when the pitching moment coefficient of the front wheel is equal to the remaining safety moment coefficient, and use this as the final main landing gear position.
[0093] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem of insufficient takeoff pitch control performance caused by the nose center of gravity exceeding the design value, and to provide technical support for optimizing the main landing gear position.

It establishes a calculation model for the rear limit of the main landing gear position, a calculation model for the change in the center of gravity and pitch moment coefficient caused by main landing gear position adjustment, a calculation model for the pitch moment generated by lift, gravity, engine thrust, tire friction, and pitch rate, and a calculation method for accurately solving the main landing gear position adjustment and the aircraft's center of gravity. To eliminate the influence of speed on pitch control performance and ensure controllability, based on design standards, the nose wheel pitch speed in the model is taken as the stall speed of the aircraft's takeoff configuration.
[0094] In this application, the x-axis coordinate is defined as follows: the origin is the leading edge of the mean aerodynamic chord of the aircraft wing, the direction is the same as the fuselage axis, and the direction backward is positive. The ratio of the aircraft's center of gravity x-axis coordinate to the mean aerodynamic chord is called the center of gravity x-axis position. The x-axis position of the aerodynamic pressure center of gravity for a tailless aircraft. This is the rear limit of the aircraft's main landing gear position along the x-axis. When the main landing gear position is greater than this value, the aircraft will be unable to lift the nose wheel.
[0095] Based on this, in step S1, the landing gear position is calculated.
[0096] In some alternative implementations, in step S1, the landing gear position is calculated using the following formula:

[0106] In some alternative implementations, each pitch moment coefficient is determined by the following formula:
[0107] ;
[0108] in, To increase the engine thrust at the point where the front wheels reach their speed point, For the number of engines, The height of the engine thrust line from the center of gravity. The velocity pressure required to lift the nose wheel during takeoff is S, where S is the wing reference area.
[0109] ;
[0110] Where W is the takeoff weight. The coefficient of friction of the tire. The height of the aircraft's center of gravity above the ground;

[0116] Next, in step S2, the pitching moment coefficient of the front wheel is calculated.

[0127] ;
[0128] in, and These are the absolute weight and relative weight of the main landing gear, respectively. This represents the change in the position of the center of gravity. This is the position of the previous centroid during the last iteration.
[0129] Then, in step S3, considering the change in the center of gravity position caused by the movement of the main landing gear and the change in the available pitch control torque of the horizontal stabilizer, the landing gear position in the previous iteration is... Based on this, increase the set percentage of movement and recalculate the pitching moment coefficient of the aircraft lifting the nose wheel in this state. until it exceeds the remaining safety torque coefficient.
[0130] In some alternative implementations, in step S3, the remaining safety torque coefficient is set to 0.003.

The wing reference area is 300 m². 2 The mean aerodynamic chord length (Ca) is 6.4m. The engine thrust axis is 0.448m above the center of gravity, and the aircraft's center of gravity is 1.92m above the ground. Initial design: the nose center of gravity was 0.23Ca, and the main landing gear was 0.57Ca. The current nose center of gravity is 0.2Ca. The forward shift of the center of gravity results in insufficient takeoff nose wheel control torque, necessitating a forward shift of the main landing gear.
[0133] Calculated conditions: takeoff weight 180t, engine thrust 120KN.
[0134] Since the maximum pitch control coefficient available for the horizontal stabilizer is 95%, theoretically, as long as the pitch moment coefficient when the nose wheel is raised is positive, the remaining safety moment coefficient in this application is taken as 0.003. After five rounds of cyclic calculations, as shown in Table 1, the result of the fourth calculation is 0.00324, which is greater than 0.003. Therefore, the results of the third and fourth calculations are interpolated to obtain that when the pitch moment coefficient when the nose wheel is raised is 0.003, the main landing gear position moves forward by 0.0517Ca, the main landing gear position is adjusted to 0.522Ca, and the front center of gravity position is 0.1933Ca.
