Architecture Design of BWB Aircraft Flight Control and Actuation System Based on CSP Algorithm
In view of the difficulties in designing the architecture of flight control actuator system due to the large number of rudder surfaces of Blended Wing Body(BWB)aircraft,the multiple functions of two or three axes for each rudder surface,and the diverse types of power sources and actuators,this paper studies and analyzes the safety design principles and technical constraints of the architecture of flight control actuator system of BWB aircraft.The Constraint Satisfaction Problem(CSP)algorithm is used to choose the flight control actuator system architecture for BWB aircraft.Among the 1049 candidate actuator system architectures,the actuator system architecture that conforms to the technical constraints and design principlesis found in less than 7 minutes,which is shorter than the preliminary filtrating algorithm in the literature and shortens the design cycle.
