According to an aspect of the present invention, a kind of solar powered aircraft is provided, has it is characterized in that comprising:
Fuselage;
Be fixed in the lower aerofoil on the fuselage;
The positive camber wing, it is connected with said lower aerofoil through a pair of braced wing;
Said a pair of braced wing.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 illustrates to have shown the single solar powered aircraft that can fly round the clock according to an embodiment of the invention.
The specific embodiment
The present invention relates to have high lift-drag ratio, the solar powered aircraft of low energy consumption.In order to improve 1ift-drag ratio, this aircraft adopts the big positive camber wing (9) of lift coefficient, and center of gravity (12) is located under being configured in wing focus (13), thereby produces big 1ift-drag ratio and nose-up pitching moment, makes full facility that static stability is arranged simultaneously.Can improve the 1ift-drag ratio of aircraft, can make full facility that static stability is arranged again.The area of wing (9) is enough big, is suitable for installing more solar panel, guarantees to store the enough energy and supplies night and cloudy day flight to use.In order to improve aircaft configuration intensity, alleviate structural weight simultaneously, adopt double-vane face (9,11), the double bracing wing (5,14) structure.
In order to have the high lift-drag ratio ability, fully excavate the boat performance of a specified duration of solar powered aircraft, the single solar powered aircraft that flies round the clock according to an embodiment of the invention comprises following characteristic: high aspect ratio, straight wing, the no dihedral angle, bicycle gear.Center of gravity is located under being disposed at the wing focus.
Particularly, the single solar powered aircraft that flies round the clock according to an embodiment of the invention comprises following characteristic:
-positive camber wing (9)
In order to make aircraft have big 1ift-drag ratio, the single solar powered aircraft that can fly round the clock according to an embodiment of the invention adopts the positive camber wing.The center of gravity of all-wing aircraft (12) is configured under the full mechanical coke point (13), and producing nose-up pitching moment, the zero lift moment of trim positive camber wing can improve the 1ift-drag ratio of aircraft, can make full facility that static stability is arranged again.
-trim fuselage
Fuselage (6) is fixed in lower aerofoil (11).Can help like this center of gravity (12) is disposed at full mechanical coke point (13) below, reach the trim of full machine moment, realize high lift-drag ratio.Help strengthening fuselage intensity simultaneously.Driving compartment (10) visual field is good.
-wing braced wing
Support (5,14) through two wings and realize the connection between the upper and lower wing (9,11); When improving full machine structural strength,, make full machine down-shift of working center for the installation of driving engine (3,4) provides support; Reach the trim of full machine moment, realize high lift-drag ratio.Simultaneously, solar panels side inside and outside the support aerofoil can be installed, when the solar light irradiation angle is low, receive more solar energy.
-maneuverability pattern
According to one embodiment of present invention, a pair of spoiler (1,2) is set, as the control in the horizontal course of aircraft at wing (9) two ends.In the control in horizontal course, can strengthen control through the control of two driving engines on the braced wing (3,4) thrust size difference.And vertical pitch control subsystem of aircraft then is through regulating the size of driving engine total thrust, realizing the up-down of aircraft.
Parameter according to a specific embodiment of the present invention comprises:
The long 28m of total weight 540kg upper span
The long 10m of last chord-length 1.4m lower span
Following chord-length 1m goes up the high 9m of bottom wing
Braced wing chord length 0.5m
Sweepback angle χ: consider from the flat performance that flies of low speed, choose straight wing for improving 1ift-drag ratio.
Rudder face: only a pair of spoiler (1,2) is set, as the control in the horizontal course of aircraft at wing.
Driving engine: adopt two solar-electricity power engines, parallel symmetrical placement is in two wing braced wings.Engine thrust increases, and the realization aircraft altitude is climbed; Engine thrust reduces, and realizes that the height of aircraft reduces.Through left and right sides asymmetrical thrust size, strengthen the control in the horizontal course of aircraft simultaneously.
