A Fluid-Structure Coupling Algorithm Based on Finite Element Method for Precise Analysis of Transonic and Supersonic Panel Flutter
To analyze the supersonic and transonic panel flutter behavior quantitatively and accurately
a fluid-structure coupling algorithm based on the finite element method(FEM)is proposed for the two-dimensional panel flutter problem. First
the von Kármán's large deformation theory is adopted to model the panel
and the high speed air flow is approached by the Euler equations. Then
the equation of panel is discretized spatially by the standard FEM
and the equations of fluid are discretized by the characteristic-based split finite element method(CBS-FEM)with dual time stepping
thus the numerical oscillation often encountered in numerical simulation of fluid flow can be eliminated. Furthermore
a loose coupling algorithm is applied to the data exchange between the fluid and the structure. Finally
the proposed algorithm is used to investigate the aeroelastic behavior of the panel in supersonic and transonic air flows and the influences of the non-dimensional dynamic pressure
pre-tightening force and thickness ratio on the system. The results are compared with those of the classical panel flutter analyses using linear/nonlinear piston theory and linearized potential flow theory. It shows that the proposed algorithm enables to obtain accurate aerodynamic pressure in a wide range of Mach numbers
especially for the analysis of panel aeroelasticity in transonic air flows.
