The wing rock motion is frequently suffered by a wing-body configuration with low swept wing at high angle of attack. It is found from our experimental study that the tip perturbation and wing longitudinal locations affect significantly the wing rock motion of a wing-body. The natural tip perturbation would make the wing rock motion of a nondeterministic nature and an artificial mini-tip perturbation would make the wing rock motion deterministic. The artificial tip perturbation would, as its circumferential location is varied, generate three different types of motion patterns: (1) limit cycle oscillation, (2) irregular oscillation, (3) equilibrium state with tiny oscillation. The amplitude of rolling oscillation corresponding to the limit cycle oscillatory motion pattern is decreased with the wing location shifting downstream along the body axis.
A study of leeward vortex structure over chined fuselage and the effects of micro tip perturbation on its vortex flow have been carried out in wind tunnel experiments at Reynolds numbers from 1.26×105 to 5.04×105 with PIV and pressure measurement techniques.Firstly,the experiment results have proved that micro tip perturbation has no effects on the vortex flow and its aerodynamic characteristics over chined fuselage at high angle of attack,in which there are not any non-deterministic flow behaviors.Secondly,the evolution of leeward vortex structure over chined fuselage along the axis of model can be divided into four flow regimes:linear conical developed regime,decay regime of leeward vortex intensity,asymmetric leeward vortex break down regime and completely break down regime.And a correlation between leeward vortex structure and sectional aerodynamic force was also revealed in the present paper.Thirdly,the experiment results show the behavior of leeward vortex core trajectories and zonal characteristics of leeward vortex structure with angles of attack.Finally,the experiment results of Reynolds number effect on the leeward vortex flow have further confirmed research conclusions from previous studies:the flows over chined fuselage at high angles of attack are insensitive to variation of Reynolds number,and there is a little effect on the secondary boundary layer separation and the suction peak induced by leeward vortex.

Based on the determinability of asymmetric vortices flow over slender body under changeless round grain at high angle of attack,the effect of microblowing set in special position on the behaviors of asymmetric flow is discussed in this paper,including blowing momentum and circumferential locations of the microblowing hole of 0.5 mm in diameter on nose tip.A new kind of active control technique,named perturbation-combined active control technique,which combines the micro-grain and micro-blowing perturbation,was proposed on the basis of the above.This control technique can not only change the sign of side force of slender body arbitrarily through changing the vortices positions between yaw-left and yaw-right configuration,but also can make the magnitude of side force variable gradually even at bistable state of asymmetric vortex.Finally,the interferential mechanism of the perturbation-combined active control technique has also been concluded from this paper.The tests have been conducted at low speed wind tunnel with subcritical Reynolds number of 1.05×10~5 at angle of attack α=50° in Beihang University,Beijing,China.
