Modular compound type high-energy weapon cooling system and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a modular compound type high-energy weapon cooling system and a control method thereof. The modular compound type high-energy weapon cooling system is composed of a high-energy weapon cabin and a cooling equipment cabin. A high-energy weapon and an evaporator are arranged in the high-energy weapon cabin. The periphery of the high-energy weapon and the periphery of the evaporator are filled with phase change materials. A compressor, a condenser, a throttling branch, a bypass branch, a controller, a condenser fluid inlet and a condenser fluid outlet are arranged in the cooling equipment cabin. The evaporator is connected with the compressor, the condenser and the throttling branch in sequence through a refrigerant pipeline. The throttling branch and the bypass branch are arranged in parallel. A throttling device is arranged on the throttling branch, and a bypass valve is arranged on the throttling branch. Under different cooling fluid and high-energy weapon equipment load conditions, two work modes can be achieved in the system according to the periphery temperature of the high-energy weapon. The system has two refrigerating modes, work can be done as long as cooling fluid is provided by an external platform, and flexibility, maneuverability and transportability of the high-energy weapon are greatly improved.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a modular composite high-energy weapon heat dissipation system and a control method thereof, which are suitable for heat dissipation of high-energy laser equipment on platforms such as airborne, spaceborne, shipborne, and vehicle-mounted, and belong to the field of equipment thermal management and environmental control. Background technique: [0002] In recent years, high-energy laser weapons have developed rapidly as the next generation of new weapons. Studies have shown that the efficiency of high-energy weapons to convert electrical energy into laser is only 10% to 15%, resulting in a heat flux as high as 100 to 800W / cm when performing tasks 2 , and intermittent pulse-type work, the load fluctuates greatly, which poses a great challenge to the cooling system. In addition, high-energy weapons may work on various platforms such as airborne, spaceborne, shipborne, and vehicle-mounted, and the environmental conditions such as ...
