摘要: 为揭示尾翼板对水陆两栖车水动力性能的影响机制, 结合静水拖曳试验与数值仿真方法, 基于STAR-CCM+数值计算对比分析了加装尾翼板前后两栖车在不同航速下的运动参数、自由液面波形及车身压力分布特性。研究结果表明: 尾翼板可显著改变水陆两栖车水动力特性, 其作用效果具有明显的速度依赖性。运动参数方面, 尾翼板使航行阻力呈先降后增趋势, 在弗劳德数为0.738时减阻率达21.6%; 同时, 其对航行姿态的调控作用突出, 纵摇角度峰值差异达63.3%, 且有效抑制计算航速域内的垂荡运动。在流场特性方面, 尾翼板通过改变车体纵摇角度和垂荡幅值, 重构了两栖车周围流场波形和车身压力分布特征, 低速时改善艉部流场分离, 高速时需防范过度埋首引发的气蚀风险。文中研究为水陆两栖车的水动力优化设计提供了理论依据。Abstract: To explore the effect mechanism of the stern flap on the hydrodynamic performance of amphibious vehicles, still water towing tests and numerical simulation methods were combined to comparatively analyze the motion parameters, free surface waveforms and pressure distribution of the vehicle at different speeds before and after the installation of the stern flap based on STAR-CCM+. The results show that the stern flap significantly alters the hydrodynamic characteristics of the amphibious vehicle, with a significant speed dependence in the effect. In terms of motion parameters, the stern flap gets the resistance lower and then higher, with a resistance reduction rate of 21.6% at Fr=0.738. The regulation effect on sailing attitude is prominent, with a peak difference in pitch angle reaching 63.3% at the same time, effectively suppressing the heave motion within the speed range. In terms of flow field characteristics, by changing the pitch angle and heave amplitude, the stern flap significantly reconstructs the waveform of the flow field around the amphibious vehicle and the pressure distribution characteristics of vehicle. At a low speed, the flow field separation of the stern can be improved. At a high speed, the risk of cavitation caused by over plough-in should be prevented. The study provides a theoretical basis for the hydrodynamic optimization design of amphibious vehicles.
