The application belongs to the technical field of aircraft
simulation, and relates to a flight
simulation method and device under gust load considering the downwash effect. The method comprises the following steps: S1, performing 1g
level flight trimming of an aircraft to determine the aircraft trimming
angle of attack and the aircraft trimming
elevator deflection; S2, superimposing the
aerodynamic force coefficient increment caused by the downwash
angle of attack on the
aerodynamic force coefficient of the aircraft body to determine the
aerodynamic force of the aircraft; S3, performing dynamic response solution on the aerodynamic force of the aircraft to obtain the
flight speed, superimposing the
wind speed of the vertical gust field on the
flight speed to determine the corrected speed of the aircraft, and determining the aerodynamic
angle of attack and the flight Mach number according to the corrected speed; and S4, re-determining the aerodynamic force of the aircraft according to the flight Mach number, the
pitch angular velocity, the aerodynamic angle of
attack, the given
wind speed of the vertical gust field and the
elevator deflection, and performing the above steps cyclically until the
simulation is completed. The simulation process of the application is simple and has high precision, and meets the needs of
engineering practice.
