Numerical Study on Aerodynamic Performance of CK Drone Aircraft Air Inlet in Maneuvering Flight

In view of the engineering background that CK drone aircraft needs modification and upgrading to improve its maneuvering performance,numerical research and analysis of air inlet aerodynamic performance are carried out.Firstly,based on the introduction of the theoretical knowledge involved in aircraft maneuvering flight,parameters such as aircraft attitude and engine mass flow etc.required for the aerodynamic performance calculation of CK drone aircraft air inlet are determined.By analyzing the test data of WP6 engine inlet distortion simulation board,the typical indexes are extracted as the basis for evaluating the air inlet performance of CK drone aircraft.Then,the aerodynamic characteristics of the inlet of CK drone aircraft under different maneuvering conditions are numerically studied,and the total pressure recovery coefficient and pressure distortion index of the outlet section are obtained.Several conclusions and suggestions are formed after the study.When CK drone aircraft flies at positive angle of attack,the inlet has good aerodynamic characteristics,which can meet the requirements of engine intake during high maneuverable flight.In the flight of negative angle of attack,the total pressure loss and pressure distortion at the outlet section of air inlet increase sharply,which cannot guarantee the stable working of the engine.On the premise that the aircraft attitude is satisfied,CK drone aircraft can use three engine thrust states of"Rated","Modified rated"and"Maximum"for high maneuverable flight.

Investigations on an Axial Flow Fan Stage subjected to Circumferential Inlet Flow Distortion and Swirl

The combined effects of swirl and circumferential inlet flow distortion on the flow field of an axial flow fan stage are reported in this paper. The study involves measurements at the inlet of the rotor and exit of the rotor and stator at design and off design now conditions. The study indicated that at the design flow condition, swirl had caused deterioration of the performance in addition to that caused by distortfou. Pressure rise imparted in the distortion zone is higher than in the free zone. The attenuation of distortion is high in the presence of swirl.

Quantization Based Watermarking Methods Against Valumetric Distortions

Most of the quantization based watermarking algorithms are very sensitive to valumetric distortions, while these distortions are regarded as common processing in audio/video analysis. In recent years, watermarking methods which can resist this kind of distortions have attracted a lot of interests. But still many proposed methods can only deal with one certain kind of valumetric distortion such as amplitude scaling attack, and fail in other kinds of valumetric distortions like constant change attack, gamma correction or contrast stretching. In this paper, we propose a simple but effective method to tackle all the three kinds of valumetric distortions. This algorithm constructs an invariant domain first by spread transform which satisfies certain constraints. Then an amplitude scale invariant watermarking scheme is applied on the constructed domain. The validity of the approach has been confirmed by applying the watermarking scheme to Gaussian host data and real images. Experimental results confirm its intrinsic invariance against amplitude scaling, constant change attack and robustness improvement against nonlinear valumetric distortions.
