摘要
The effectiveness of the Vectored Thrust Ducted Propeller(VTDP)system is not high currently,especially the lateral force is not large enough.Thus,a conceptual design for a deflection device of a VTDP system was proposed to achieve effective hovering control.The magnitude of the lateral force that was applied to maintain balance while hovering was examined.A comparison between the experimental and numerical results for the 16H-1 was made to verify the numerical simulation approach.The deflection devices of the X-49 and the proposed design were analyzed using numerical simulations.The results indicated that a larger lateral force and lower power consumption were presented in the proposed design.The results of this article provide a new idea for the design of the VTDP system.
