Abstract

A measurement system using stereo pattern recognition (SPR) method was configured to measure the rotor blade deformations and motions. An SPR-based measurement system was prepared using six stereo cameras. Through a series of experiments to evaluate the system measurement uncertainty, it was verified that the SPR system had less than 0.2mm standard uncertainty. The combined standard uncertainties for the lead-lag, flapping, and pitching motions were estimated as 0.296mm, 0.209mm, and $0.238^{\circ}$, respectively. The SPR system was installed at a general small-scaled rotor test system at Korea Aerospace Research Institute. The blade motions and elastic deformation were successfully measured under the conditions with rotating speeds of 360rpm or 589rpm, and collective pitch angles of $0^{\circ}$, $4^{\circ}$, or $6^{\circ}$. The advantages of the SPR system was analyzed in comparison with the measurement system used in Higher Harmonic Control Aeroacoustic Rotor Test -II.

회전 블레이드의 모션을 측정하기 위해 스테레오 패턴 인식 (stereo pattern recognition, SPR) 기법을 적용한 측정 시스템을 구성하고 실험을 수행하였다. 시스템 요구사항을 만족시키는 스테레오 카메라를 확보하여 SPR 기반의 측정 시스템을 준비하였다. 시스템의 측정불확도를 계산하기 위한 일련의 실험을 통해, 본 SPR 시스템이 2m~4.2m의 측정 거리에서 0.2mm 이내의 표준불확도를 가짐을 확인하였다. 이를 이용하여 계산한 블레이드 모션의 합성표준불확도는, 리드-래그, 플래핑, 비틀림 운동에 대해 각각 0.296mm, 0.209mm, $0.238^{\circ}$ 이었다. 본 SPR 시스템을 한국항공우주연구원의 소형로터 시험장치에 설치하고 회전속도와 콜렉티브 피치각을 각각 360rpm, 589rpm, 그리고 $0^{\circ}$, $4^{\circ}$, $6^{\circ}$로 바꾸어가며, 지상 제자리비행 조건에서 블레이드의 모션과 탄성 변형을 성공적으로 측정하였다. Higher Harmonic Control Aeroacoustic Rotor Test -II 에서 사용한 측정 시스템과의 비교를 통하여 본 시스템의 장점을 분석하였다.
