An improved model to express the unsteady aerodynamic characteristics at high angles of attack is presented in this paper. The proposed aerodynamic model is expressed on the basis of a progressive state-space representation and Taylor’s series expansion. The state-space expression is a first-order differential equation in which the power item of the angular rate of attack is introduced. The unsteady aerodynamic coefficients are described by Taylor’s series expansion in terms of input variables. The approach of minimum mean square error criterion is utilized to identify the unknown parameters of the proposed model by nonlinear least square method from the tunnel data. The given modeling method is experimentally demonstrated by the wind tunnel measurements of NACA 0015 airfoil with constant rate to high angles of attack, F18 aircraft with constant pitch rate ramp motion, and F18 HARV (high alpha research vehicle) configuration with large-amplitude harmonic oscillatory. The results show that it is possible to analyze more complex unsteady aerodynamic problems for an aircraft within the framework of the proposed aerodynamic model and the represented model is directly amenable to the simulation and control system design.
