Optimum Magnetic Circuit Configurations for Permanent Magnet Aerospace Generators

In the design of high-speed low-power electrical generators for unmanned aircraft and spacecraft, maximization of specific output (power/weight) is of prime importance. Several magnetic circuit configurations (radial-field, axial-field, flux-squeezing, homopolar) have been proposed, and in this paper the relative merits of these configurations are subjected to a quantitative investigation over the speed range 10 000-100 000 rev/min and power range 250 W-10 kW. The advantages of incorporating new high energy-density magnetic materials are described. Part 1 deals with establishing an equivalent circuit for permanent-magnet generators. For each configuration the equivalent circuit parameters are related to the physical dimensions of the generator components and an optimization procedure produces a minimum volume design at discrete output powers and operating speeds. The technique is illustrated by a quantitative comparison of the specific outputs of conventional radial-field generators with samarium cobalt and alnico magnets. In Part II the specific outputs of conventional, flux-squeezing, and claw-rotor magnetic circuit configurations are compared. The flux-squeezing configuration is shown to produce the highest specifilc output for small sizes whereas the conventional configuration is best at large sizes. For all sizes the claw-rotor configuration is significantly inferior. In Part I1l the power densities available from axial-field and flux-switching magnetic circuit configurations are maximized, over the power range 0.25-10 kW and speed range 10 000-100 000 rpm, and compared to the results of Parts I & II. For the axial-field configuration the power density is always less than that of the conventional and flux-squeezing radial-field configurations.     

Evaluation of Geometric Performance of Global Positioning System

The global positioning system (GPS) is a satellite-based radio navigation system to provide extremely accurate three-dimensional position fixes and system time to users anywhere on the Earth at any time regardless of weather conditions. The most significant performance parameter of the GPS is the degree of navigation accuracy which is strongly coupled to the choice of orbit configuration. The 3 X 8 orbit configuration has been considered as an operational GPS which consists of 24 satellites deployed in circular 63° inclined, subsynchronous 12-h orbits. In this paper, the geometric performance of several orbit configuration, including a 3 X 8 orbit configuration, is analyzed numerically by altering orbit period and elevation mask, respectively. It will be shown that 1) there are a few orbit configurations which are comparable to or better than the baseline 3 X 8 orbit configuration, and 2) for higher elevation mask, the geometric performance can be improved effectively by increasing orbit period to some extent.

Pre-impact trajectory planning for minimizing base attitude disturbance in space manipulator systems for a capture task

Aimed at capture task for a free-floating space manipulator, a scheme of pre-impact trajectory planning for minimizing base attitude disturbance caused by impact is proposed in this paper.Firstly, base attitude disturbance is established as a function of joint angles, collision direction and relative velocity between robotic hand and the target.Secondly, on the premise of keeping correct capture pose, a novel optimization factor in null space is designed to minimize base attitude disturbance and ensure that the joint angles do not exceed their limits simultaneously.After reaching the balance state, a desired configuration is achieved at the contact point.Thereafter, particle swarm optimization(PSO) algorithm is employed to solve the pre-impact trajectory planning from its initial configuration to the desired configuration to achieve the minimized base attitude disturbance caused by impact and the correct capture pose simultaneously.Finally, the proposed method is applied to a 7-dof free-floating space manipulator and the simulation results verify the effectiveness.

一种用于仿生导航无人机航姿求解的混合滤波方法

针对现有组合导航系统易被干扰欺骗以及姿态求解精度不足的问题,设计了惯性测量单元(IMU)与偏振光传感器组成的航姿参考系统(AHRS)。同时,考虑到传统的姿态求解方法精度不高,提出了一种用于仿生导航无人机航姿求解的混合滤波方法。将Mahony滤波后的姿态值作为系统观测量,再结合扩展卡尔曼滤波(EKF)实现传感器数据的深层融合,以获得高精度的姿态角信息。实验结果表明：在静态环境下采用混合滤波方法求解的姿态值能有效滤除偏振光传感器和加速度计内部噪声干扰,其稳定性明显优于两种方法各自求解时的情况;在动态实验中该方法能有效抑制单独采用Mahony滤波时存在的超调问题,表现出更高的动态解算精度,从而为偏振光组合导航系统提供了更精确的姿态估计信息。     

采用变速控制力矩陀螺的航天器自适应姿态跟踪和稳定控制研究

研究以变速控制力矩陀螺群(VSCMGs)为主执行机构的卫星功率/姿态一体化控制(IPACS)问题。针对卫星的三轴稳定控制和相对惯性系的姿态跟踪问题分别设计了两类自适应控制器,二者都考虑了执行机构的动力学特性,并进行了稳定性的证明。其中前者采用相对姿态描述,可以避免三轴稳定飞行中因惯性姿态旋转方向的选择而引起的控制力矩突变;后者采用改进的罗得里格斯参数(MRPs)描述姿态,简化了控制器设计过程并避免了运动学奇异。对姿态误差的描述,前者采用小姿态角假设下的偏差形式,后者采用现时姿态与期望姿态之间的方向余弦矩阵,更具有合理性。设计了能够逃离奇异、并具有轮速平衡功能的VSCMGs的操纵律,并应用磁力矩器为VSCMGs进行动量卸载。最后,通过两个算例进行了仿真,验证了所设计系统的可行性和有效性。

Tethered dual spacecraft configuration: a solution to attitude control problems

A new dual spacecraft configuration comprising of two spacecraft halves judiciously connected through extremely short tethers is proposed. The simple tethered configuration induces stabilizing torques when subjected to attitude disturbances, thus ensuring 3-d pointing stability of both the satellite platforms. The enhanced system performance obtained using tethers enables a much greater flexibility in the choice of satellite mass distribution. Three particular TSS models involving parallel tethers, a `parachute-like' conical tether layout as well as a single tether connection have been considered. A detailed numerical response simulation shows that these modes of tether attachments bring about a radical change in the satellite attitude behavior from the nominal one involving relatively large librational amplitudes or instability to a virtually fixed desired orientation. Of these, the parachute configuration appears to be superior. The passive nature of the proposed mechanisms using tether lengths on the order of merely a couple of meters needed for small and medium size systems makes the concept particularly attractive for future space missions. Finally, it is felt that the proposed tethered dual satellite systems may offer a simple answer to three-axis attitude control problems.

Process of establishing design requirements and selecting alternative configurations for conceptual design of a VLA

In this study, a process for establishing design requirements and selecting alternative con-figurations for the conceptual phase of aircraft design has been proposed. The proposed process uses system-engineering-based requirement-analysis techniques such as objective tree, analytic hier-archy process, and quality function deployment to establish logical and quantitative standards. Moreover, in order to perform a logical selection of alternative aircraft configurations, it uses advanced decision-making methods such as morphological matrix and technique for order prefer-ence by similarity to the ideal solution. In addition, a preliminary sizing tool has been developed to check the feasibility of the established performance requirements and to evaluate the flight perfor-mance of the selected configurations. The present process has been applied for a two-seater very light aircraft (VLA), resulting in a set of tentative design requirements and two families of VLA configurations: a high-wing configuration and a low-wing configuration. The resulting set of design requirements consists of three categories: customer requirements, certification requirements, and performance requirements. The performance requirements include two mission requirements for the flight range and the endurance by reflecting the customer requirements. The flight performances of the two configuration families were evaluated using the sizing tool developed and the low-wing configuration with conventional tails was selected as the best baseline configuration for the VLA.

翼身融合布局飞机机体-发动机气动干扰效应

翼身融合（BWB）布局飞机是一种相对较新的飞行器概念,具有商业运输飞机的潜在用途。研究表明,翼身融合布局客机可获得比常规布局客机更好的性能。但是,由于各方面限制,BWB飞机不宜使用传统的机翼安装或机身安装的发动机布局,发动机背部安装成为首选布局。然而,背部安装发动机容易产生激波、分离、进气畸变等空气动力干扰问题,发动机与机身一体化的气动设计已成为BWB飞机发展的关键技术。针对BWB布局飞机的机体和发动机之间的气动干扰进行了数值研究,结果表明,背部安装发动机对BWB布局飞机的全机气动特性和发动机本身的推力性能都会产生较为明显的影响。
