Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of aerodynamic layout, specifically relating to a parametric design method for wave-riding windward surfaces that does not require solving partial differential equations. Background Technology

[0002] Lift-to-drag ratio is a crucial parameter for evaluating the performance of high-speed aircraft, and waverider design of the frontal surface is a common measure to improve the lift-to-drag ratio. Classical waverider design theories, such as conical waverider design, kissing conical waverider design, and kissing flow field waverider design, all involve three steps. First, a characteristic line mesh is constructed according to the pre-defined shock surface, and partial differential equations are solved to complete the baseline flow field design. Second, the given two-dimensional leading edge profile is projected onto the shock surface to obtain the final three-dimensional leading edge profile. Finally, the complete frontal surface shape is obtained by starting from points on the three-dimensional leading edge profile and using the streamline tracing method.

[0003] The complex windward wave-riding design process limits the efficiency of windward surface generation; the projection-based leading edge design process results in a lack of direct means to adjust the shape of the leading edge line, requiring a large number of iterations to complete the adjustment; the streamline-based windward surface construction method results in the windward surface being composed of thousands of discrete points, making it difficult to manually adjust the surface shape in 3D modeling software. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a parametric design method for the windward face of a waverider that eliminates the need to solve partial differential equations. The method designs the windward face profile and leading edge curve using explicit functions, significantly simplifying the waverider design process while preserving the waverider characteristics and further improving its efficiency. By optimizing the waverider design process, the design efficiency of the leading edge shape and surface shape of the windward face is further improved, along with the intuitiveness and efficiency of shape adjustment.

[0005] A parameterized design method for wave-riding windward surfaces that does not require solving partial differential equations includes the following steps: (1) Design and parametric description of the leading edge of the wave-riding windward side; (2) Design and parametric description of the windward surface of the wave-riding surface.

[0006] In step (1), the shape of the leading edge curve is expressed by a Bézier curve. Taking a six-control-point Bézier curve as an example, the parametric expression of the leading edge curve is: in, , The three-dimensional coordinates of the six control points can be freely set as needed.

[0007] Furthermore, in step (2), based on the fact that any point on the leading edge curve corresponds to a flow-direction cross-sectional curve, The parametric expression for the flow section curve at the location is: in, , The deflection angle of the cross section. The length of the waverider. The parameters of the flow section curve The shape function.

[0008] Furthermore, the shape function in the flow section curve is a bivariate function that satisfies the following three equations: in, The deflection angle at the starting point of the flow profile curve. The deflection angle at the endpoint of the flow-direction section curve.

[0009] Furthermore, a feasible solution for the shape function is: in, is the length of the waverider.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: (1) The shape of the front edge of the windward side is adjusted in the form of an explicit function, which solves the problems of poor efficiency and low design freedom caused by the previous projection method; (2) While maintaining the basic wave multiplication characteristics, the shape of the windward surface is directly solved by multiple explicit functions, and the surface shape is generated by only a dozen parameters, which improves the design efficiency and the convenience of surface shape adjustment.
