摘要: 针对未来机体占用空间小并且具有高机动性飞行器的设计需求,提出后翼具有上反角的串置翼布局.采用N-S控制方程的有限体积法离散格式,选取剪切应力运输(SST)<i<k-ω</i<两方程湍流模型对以后翼上反角为变量的4组模型进行数值模拟分析.通过理论分析与验证机实验相结合的方法,研究了前后机翼间气动干扰特性以及后翼上反对飞行性能的影响.研究结果表明后翼上反角可避免平飞时前翼尾流对后翼的冲击,保证小攻角时的巡航稳定性.同时分析了由前后翼间持续相互干扰作用造成的不良影响,并提出了解决方案.研究论证了串置翼后翼上反能够替代垂尾起到横航向安定作用,并且通过取消垂直安定面降低了飞行器结构重量和浸润面积产生的阻力.Abstract: The concept of tandem wing with rear wing dihedral configuration was proposed for future high maneuver small aircraft. The Navier-Stokes(N-S) equations in a 3D coordinate system was solved with the finite volume method. A <i<k-ω</i< shear stress transport(SST) two-equation turbulent model was also applied to make numerical simulation for 4 comparison models with different rear wing dihedral angle. Combined with theoretical analysis and experimental verification of the prototype, the characteristics of the aerodynamic interference between the wings, and the effects of the rear wing dihedral on the flight performance were investigated. The result shows that rear wing dihedral can avoid the airflow interference caused by front, and ensure the cruise stability at small angle of attack. Meanwhile the adverse impact of continue interference between front wing and rear wing was analyzed, and some solutions were put forward. The study indicates that the rear wing dihedral can play the same role as the vertical tail to enhance the lateral and directional stability, and the structure weight and aerodynamic resistance caused by wetted area can be reduced by eliminating the vertical tail.
