为满足现代大型飞机增升装置简洁高效的设计需求,以典型三段翼型为对象,采用数值模拟研究在后缘襟翼上增加微型后缘装置(mini-TED)以提高增升装置效率的可行性;给出了微型后缘装置的作用原理,获得了微型后缘装置位置、长度、偏度等几何参数对增升和升阻性能的影响规律。研究结果表明:微型后缘装置明显改变了襟翼后缘弯度,对襟翼流动产生有利诱导作用,拓展加长了增升装置的有效"气动弦长",是一种附加气动襟翼。其几何参数设计原则是:以长度l≤1.5%c(c为干净翼型弦长)、位于95%襟翼弦向位置前较为合适;偏度则可根据起降等飞行状态进行选择。与四段及其以上增升装置相比,微型后缘装置具有增升效果显著、结构简单、附加重量小和易于工程实现等优点,是一种极具潜力的新型增升技术,具有深入的研究价值和良好的应用前景。
In order to meet the design requirements of high lift system with high efficiency and simple structure for modern large aircraft, this paper selects a typical three element airfoil, and, based on numerical simulation, studies the feasibility of mini-trailing edge device (mini-TED) to improve the aerodynamic performance of the lift system and analyzes its physical mechanism and the impact of its geometrical parameters, including the mini-TED fixing position, length and deflection angle. The study shows that the mini-TED changes the curvature of the trailing edge and increases the effective aerodynamic chord length for a high lift system, acting like an additional aerodynamic flap. Mini-TED with geometrical parameters of length l≤1.5%c (c is the chord length) and fixing position before 95% length of the flap is suitable, and its deflection angle can be adjusted based on different flying states. Compared with the four or more element high lift system, mini-TED features remarkable lift enhancement effect, simple structure, light additional height, and easy application in engineering. It possesses attractive potential as a new lift enhancement technique.
