Carrying aircraft and load delivery method

Abstract

The invention provides a carrying aircraft and a load delivery method. The carrying aircraft comprises a load loading cabin and a deceleration extension skirt arranged around the peripheral wall of the load loading cabin, wherein one end of the deceleration extension skirt is connected with the outer wall of the load loading cabin; the deceleration extension skirt is provided with a folding position folded on the outer wall of the load loading cabin and an unfolding position unfolded outwards relative to the load loading cabin; and when the deceleration extension skirt is located at the unfolding position, the carrying aircraft decelerates through aerodynamic resistance generated by the deceleration extension skirt. According to the carrying aircraft, the aerodynamic resistance generated by unfolding of the deceleration extension skirts is used for deceleration; compared with a traditional carrying aircraft adopting a rocket engine for reverse thrust deceleration, the delivery distancecan be increased, the load delivery capacity can be improved, the delivery cost-effectiveness ratio of the carrying aircraft can be increased, a larger delivery range can be achieved, and due to thefact that a deceleration engine is removed, the complexity of a power system is reduced, the cost is reduced, and use and maintenance are easy and convenient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aircraft, in particular to a carrier aircraft and a load delivery method. Background technique [0002] Using high-speed aircraft to deliver payloads such as drones, small satellites, and aerostats to remote areas that cannot be reached in a short time has become a new method for emergency monitoring, disaster prevention and relief, and other purposes. Unlike aircraft delivery or autonomous flight to the target airspace, high-speed aircraft can be boosted by rocket engines to achieve very high speeds, thereby shortening the delivery time. Since the load release often needs to be controlled within a certain height and speed range to ensure that the aerodynamic load and thermal load are small after the load is released, and the safe release of the load is realized, it is necessary to decelerate during the final reentry. [0003] The traditional re-entry deceleration method of the launch vehicle often uses ...
