Research On The Real-time Simulation Platform RT-LAB And Its Application In The Aircraft Design

The theory and application of real-time simulation were studied based on the RT-LAB platform. Two applied examples of digital simulation and real-time simulation were finished, and the results were compared. The work provided an active approach for the real-time simulation and HILS (hardware in the loop simulation) based on RT-LAB platform. It will be useful for the HILS of electromechanical steering-engines.The detailed characteristics and developing steps of the platforms RT-LAB and dSPACE were analyzed and compared particularly. Then, the real-time simulations of satellite attitude determination with star sensors based on the platform RT-LAB were made, and the results of simulation were analyzed.The composing principles and the control modes of electromechanical steering-engines were researched. Based on the collected information, we made the real time simulation of an electromechanical steering-engine based on the platform RT-LAB, and analyzed the results of simulation. Then the HILS project of the electromechanical steering-engine system based on the platform RT-LAB was summarily achieved.The investigative results in this paper are a useful attempt and application to the real-time simulation and HILS. It is important value to the theory and application.
