垂直下降状态下螺旋桨气动特性及涡环特征
Aerodynamic characteristics and vortex ring features of propeller in vertical descent
摘要
Abstract
Propellers are susceptible to entering the perilous vortex ring state during vertical descent,a phenomenon that results in complex aerodynamic characteristics that remain incompletely understood.utilizing the viscous vortex particle method(VVPM),a thorough investigation was conducted on the aerodynamic characteristics and vortex ring features of the APC thin electric 10X7 propeller at different vertical descent rates.Results show that the propeller's aerodynamic characteristics are highly susceptible to changes in the descent rate.Specifically,as the vertical descent rate increases,the thrust initially experiences a slight increase,followed by a decrease,and ultimately a subsequent increase.Concurrently,the wake compression effect becomes progressively more pronounced,and the vortex ring center gradually shifts upwards.During this process,the vortex ring state transitions sequentially from hovering to a fully developed state,and ultimately transforms into a windmill-like flow state.The wake fields of the propeller gradually change from tubular helicoidal downwash vortical structures to a coexistence of tubular and toroidal vortical structures,and then to fully toroidal ones,which finally migrate completely to the top of the propeller disk.Such a topological evolution of the vortex field has a direct impact on the propeller's aerodynamic characteristics.Tubular helicoidal vortical structures exert negligible influence,while toroidal vortical structures have a significant impact as the descent rate increases,manifested in a sudden thrust decrease,the enhancement of the wake compression effect,the encirclement of propeller discs by backflows,and an increased aerodynamic force.关键词
