Research on High Brightness Light Source Equipment for Wind Tunnel Test

Abstract

The experimental technology of high brightness light source was studied in sub-transonic supersonic wind tunnel. The elevation light source should be installed on the smooth wall of the tunnel, and the elevation camera should be installed in the safe area of the lower wall of the wind tunnel. The falling image of the missile model in the test is reflected into the elevation camera through a reflector mounted on a curved knife. The full trajectory images and aerodynamic parameters of projectiles of embedded weapons in aircraft can be obtained by the wind tunnel dual-view angle, high brightness light path system and six-degree-of-freedom image analysis system. The newly developed high brightness light source system makes the image clearer and the accuracy of model angle of attack identification less than 0.2 degrees, which is conducive to the analysis of model trajectory. The optical system is designed reasonably, so that the motion trajectory and six-degree-of-freedom data of the model can be obtained easily by using the dual-view technology. Wind tunnel tests under complex aerodynamic conditions of sub-transonic supersonic and multi-body interference have been completed, and all parameters have reached or surpassed the existing technical indicators, meeting the requirements of wind tunnel test research on ejection of embedded weapons in aircraft
