Abstract
The variable cycle engine selects the appropriate working mode through mode switch to meet the requirements of low specific fuel consumption and high unit thrust. When the variable cycle engine switches between different modes, it should ensure the smooth transition of working modes and obtain the expected performance at the same time. Consequently, a general control schedule design method for mode switch is investigated in this paper. The feasible switching domains of single-bypass working mode and double-bypass working modes are obtained based on multifurcating tree traversal, and the switching point in the feasible switching domain is determined by solving the collaboration-game optimization problem based on sequential quadratic programming (SQP). Finally, the schedule of control variables is designed to realize smooth and fast switching between different working modes of variable cycle engine. The simulations show that based on the general control schedule of mode switch proposed in this paper, smooth transition of thrust and rotor speed can be achieved under the premise of safe engine operation, with small fluctuations and a short switching time, which is about 2.5 s.
