According to the
test platform and the test method for measuring the pitching moment of the
underwater motion model, during test, the test model is supported by the
test platform and can move in water, free pitching motion is generated under the action of incoming flow, and the pitching moment of the test model is accurately and truly measured through the
test platform. Specifically, the test model and the force transmission mechanism are movably installed through the connecting mechanism, and meanwhile, the force transmission mechanism and the support are also movably installed, so that the test model can perform free pitching motion to the maximum extent, and the authenticity, accuracy and environment
adaptive capacity of overall measurement of the test platform are improved. Furthermore, the force transmission mechanisms are arranged on the two sides of the test model in pairs in a staggered mode, so that fine changes of
stress distribution of the model are directly captured from different
spatial orientations, complementary mechanical signals are directly formed, the force transmission structures are simplified, meanwhile, more accurate and more real indirect measurement of the pitching moment of the test model is achieved, and the test accuracy is improved. And the detection convenience, authenticity and accuracy of the test platform are improved.
