Cycle Oscillation

It is not easy for the system identification-based reduced-order model (ROM) and even eigenmode based reduced-order model to predict the limit cycle oscillation generated by the nonlinear unsteady aerodynamics. Most of these traditional ROMs are sensitive to the flow parameter variation. In order to deal with this problem, a support vector machine- (SVM-) based ROM was investigated and the general construction framework was proposed. The two-DOF aeroelastic system for the NACA 64A010 airfoil in transonic flow was then demonstrated for the new SVM-based ROM. The simulation results show that the new ROM can capture the LCO behavior of the nonlinear aeroelastic system with good accuracy and high efficiency. The robustness and computational efficiency of the SVM-based ROM would provide a promising tool for real-time flight simulation including nonlinear aeroelastic effects.

Strip Theory

A hybrid reduced-order model for the aeroelastic analysis of flexible subsonic wings with arbitrary planform is presented within a generalised quasi-analytical formulation, where a slender beam is considered as the linear structural dynamics model. A modified strip theory is proposed for modelling the unsteady aerodynamics of the wing in incompressible flow, where thin aerofoil theory is corrected by a higher-fidelity model in order to account for three-dimensional effects on both distribution and deficiency of the sectional air load. Given a unit angle of attack, approximate expressions for the lift decay and build-up are then adopted within a linear framework, where the two effects are separately calculated and later combined. Finally, a modal approach is employed to write the generalised equations of motion in state-space form. Numerical results were obtained and critically discussed for the aeroelastic stability analysis of a uniform rectangular wing, with respect to the relevant aerodynamic and structural parameters. The proposed hybrid model provides sound theoretical insights and is well suited as an efficient parametric reduced-order aeroelastic tool for the preliminary multidisciplinary design and optimisation of flexible wings in the subsonic regime.

In this article, we review the status of reduced order modeling of unsteady aerodynamic systems. Reduced order modeling is a conceptually novel and computationally efficient technique for computing unsteady flow about isolated airfoils, wings, and turbomachinery cascades. Starting with either a time domain or frequency domain computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of unsteady aerodynamic or aeroacoustic flows, a large, sparse eigenvalue problem is solved using the Lanczos algorithm. Then, using just a few of the resulting eigenmodes, a Reduced Order Model of the unsteady flow is constructed. With this model, one can rapidly and accurately predict the unsteady aerodynamic response of the system over a wide range of reduced frequencies. Moreover, the eigenmode information provides important insights into the physics of unsteady flows. Finally, the method is particularly well suited for use in the active control of aeroelastic and aeroacoustic phenomena as well as in standard aeroelastic analysis for flutter or gust response. Numerical results presented include: 1) comparison of the reduced order model to classical unsteady incompressible aerodynamic theory, 2) reduced order calculations of compressible unsteady aerodynamics based on the full potential equation, 3) reduced order calculations of unsteady flow about an isolated airfoil based on the Euler equations, and 4) reduced order calculations of unsteady viscous flows associated with cascade stall flutter, 5) flutter analysis using the Reduced Order Model. This review article includes 25 references.
