Identification and Modeling Method of Longitudinal Stall Aerodynamic Parameters of Civil Aircraft Based on Improved Kirchhoff Stall Aerodynamic Model

The stall aerodynamic model based on Kirchhoff's theory of flow separation is widely used in the identification and modeling of stall aerodynamic parameters. However, it has two defects. First, its model structure is significantly different from the pre-stall model used for a small attack angle, meaning the identification results cannot be combined with the pre-stall model to form the full flight envelope model. Second, the pitching moment model, which is used in conjunction with the Kirchhoff lift model, cannot accurately describe the aircraft stall pitching moment characteristics. To ensure the compatibility of the two models, this paper proposes a method to determine some unknown parameters in the stall model. The mechanism for the pitching moment generation of the aircraft stall is analyzed, and two high-order correction terms are added to the pitching moment model to better describe the longitudinal stall aerodynamic characteristics. Based on the identification of aerodynamic parameters, a longitudinal stall aerodynamic modeling method used for the aircraft stall process is developed. The identification and simulation validation results based on the quasi-steady stall flight data of a civil aircraft show that the improved stall model can accurately describe the quasi-steady stall pitching moment. The established stall aerodynamic model can accurately characterize the longitudinal quasi-steady stall aerodynamic characteristics of aircraft under different stall degrees.
