Abstract
The ascent trajectory design of a rocket-based combined cycle (RBCC) hypersonic vehicle has many typical characteristics, including the complex working mode of the RBCC power system, strong coupling between thrust and flight state, strong nonlinear model and many complex constraints etc. This paper proposes a rapid trajectory optimization method based on sequential convex optimization to optimize the complex ascent trajectory with the RBCC power system. Firstly, a mathematical model for optimizing the ascent trajectory of the RBCC hypersonic vehicle is established to describe the angle of attack control system with and without the second-order lag. Then, the optimization model is made convex and discretized based on the convex optimization theory, and a trajectory optimization strategy is improved. Finally, taking the maximum terminal mechanical energy as optimization objective, the ascent trajectory optimization is simulated in cases with and without the second-order lag in the angle of attack control system. The simulation results show that the proposed mathematical model and the ascent trajectory optimization method are rapid and reliable and that the optimization results meet the characteristics of the RBCC power system and provide reference for the application of a RBCC power system and the design of an angle of attack control system.
