The invention discloses a parameterized
propeller modeling method based on a shell unit. The parameterized
propeller modeling method is used for optimizing the design of a propulsion
system of an aircraft. According to the method, geometric parameters and design conditions of a
propeller are determined according to a design task book and working conditions; then, based on
aerodynamic load distribution, chord length changes of the blades are calculated, and the torsion rule of the blades is determined according to the inflow angle and the
attack angle; furthermore, a proper NACA airfoil profile is selected, and a three-dimensional geometric section of the blade is generated, so that excellent aerodynamic performance is ensured. On the basis, the connection relation between the nodes and the units of the blades is established through grid division, and a shell unit
finite element grid is formed. Constructing a shell
unit model by adopting an isoparametric element theory, and calculating a
stiffness matrix and a
mass matrix of the blade; and finally, in combination with material parameters and boundary conditions, establishing a kinetic equation, and performing
modal and dynamic
response analysis. According to the method, the blade design and analysis efficiency is effectively improved, the structural strength and the vibration characteristic are guaranteed, and a novel propelling solution with economical efficiency and innovativeness is provided for Boeing aircrafts and other types of aircrafts.
