Abstract

Wind tunnel test which is one of the method to predict the aeroelastic characteristics has difficulties to make scale-down structural model and achieve a specified free stream velocity. It is very costly and complicated to consider similarity relationships between real structure and scale-down structural model. "Dry Wind-Tunnel(DWT)" was proposed to overcome these difficulties. This is made up of Ground Vibration Test hardware and software to compute the aerodynamic forces. In the present study, program for computing the real-time unsteady aerodynamic forces which is an important part of DWT system was developed by Matlab Simulink and dSPACE. In addition, using this program and software which is a part of the test structure, a real-time flutter analysis was conducted and the results are verified by ZAERO.

공력탄성학적 현상들을 확인하는 방법 중 하나인 풍동실험은 축소 모델을 제작해야하기 때문에 복잡하고 비용이 많이 들며, 유동 속도의 제한이 있는 등의 단점이 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하여 풍동실험을 대체할 수 있는 Dry Wind-Tunnel(DWT) 기법이 제안되었다. 이는 지상 진동 실험 장치와 공기력을 계산하는 소프트웨어로 구성되어 실시간으로 유체의 영향을 고려해준다. 본 연구에서는 DWT의 핵심적인 요소인 실시간 공기력 계산프로그램을 개발하고, 구조 모델을 소프트웨어로 표현하여 두 시스템을 실시간 연동해 플러터 해석을 수행하였다. Matlab Simulink와 dSPACE를 이용하여 실시간 플러터 해석을 수행하고 이를 상용프로그램인 ZAERO를 사용한 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다.
