Description
Summary:There are high longitudinal loads and mismatched longitudinal/lateral aerodynamic characteristics of unconventional aerodynamic configurations, which present a new challenge to high-speed dynamic balance technology. The wind tunnel dimension limitation makes a new command in miniaturization design of dynamic balance. The article describes a solution method which is based on the electromechanical motion modulation testing principle and mechanical structure of saddle-type dynamic balance. There is an II-type structure assembled by oil film bearing and elastic pivot beam on the outer tube to achieve motion modulation and measurement. The double variable cross-section vertical beams are placed in front of inner shaft to measure the five components of high load. The double saddle-type structure is applied to connect the intermediate part of inner shaft with outer tube together. A Scotch yoke mechanism is composed of the transmission eccentric cam of sting and a mullion structure which is designed at the rear part of inner shaft. According to the redesign and alteration, the effective lateral load signal output could be obtained from the miniaturized dynamic balance, in which the maximum longitudinal load bearing capacity is extended more than twice. A great agreement is also obtained between the measurement accuracy and design requirements.
