Research on Transonic Wind Tunnel Flutter Test for a Wing Model

Abstract

This paper adopts self-designed wing model to conduct flutter test on subsonic and transonic, and obtains flutter characteristic of the model, and the test results are used for calibration and verification of flutter procedures. The sub-critical extrapolation is used to obtain the flutter sub-critical parameters and the direct observation method is used to obtain comparison of results. Error of results obtained by the two approaches does not exceed 5%, and validates reliability of the sub-critical prediction approach in continuous adjusted dynamic pressure flutter test.
