[0003] A subsonic aircraft can use the outer skin of the aircraft for environmental control, use part of the outer skin as a heat exchanger, conduct the heat in the cabin to the outer skin, and then transfer it to the low-temperature ram air outside. Compared with engine bleed air or compressor refrigeration, the aircraft skin heat exchanger has high efficiency, small volume and weight, and does not require additional equipment. It is a relatively economical and reliable environmental control measure under a certain flight profile.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0034] The following will specifically describe the preferred embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings, wherein the drawings form a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to explain the principles of the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0035] The present invention provides a ground test system for the convective heat transfer coefficient of the outer skin of an aircraft based on an incubator, including a flight condition simulation unit and a test unit;
[0036] The flight condition simulation unit includes a low-temperature and low-pressure incubator and a centrifugal fan;
[0037] The test unit includes a skin heat exchanger, a temperature collector, a circulation pump, a thermocouple and a simulated heat source;
[0038] The low-temperature and low-pressure incubator is an openable and closable cuboid box with an openable and closable door on the front side, and symmetrically arranged holes on the left and right sides; a vacuum pump and a compressor system are provided inside the low-temperature and low-pressure box to ensure a low-pressure and low-temperature environment;
[0039] The centrifugal fan and the skin heat exchanger are respectively placed on the left and right sides inside the low-temperature and low-pressure incubator. The skin heat exchanger is provided with a heat dissipation flow channel and is supported and fixed by a fixing bracket, so that the outer wall surface of the skin heat exchanger is in the core area of the centrifugal fan outlet; the core area of the outlet refers to: the distance from the centrifugal fan outlet ≤ D, where D is the diameter of the centrifugal fan outlet;
[0040] The circulating pump, the temperature collector and the simulated heat source are arranged outside the low-temperature and low-pressure incubator;
[0041] The skin heat exchanger, the circulating pump and the simulated heat source are connected in series through skin pipelines to form a closed-loop circuit; among them, one end of the skin heat exchanger is connected to one end of the circulating pump through a skin inlet pipeline, and the other end of the skin heat exchanger is connected to the simulated heat source through a skin outlet pipeline; the circulating pump and the simulated heat source are connected through a separate pipeline; the skin inlet pipeline and the skin outlet pipeline pass through the holes on the side of the box body and penetrate out of the box body;
[0042] The thermocouples are respectively arranged on the outer wall surface of the skin heat exchanger, one end of the skin inlet pipeline connected to the inner wall surface of the skin heat exchanger, and one end of the skin outlet pipeline connected to the inner wall surface of the skin heat exchanger, and are all connected to the temperature data collector;
[0043] The low-temperature and low-pressure incubator can provide a low-temperature and low-pressure environment of normal temperature to -80°C and normal pressure to 1Kpa, and can simulate the low-temperature and low-pressure environmental conditions at an altitude of 5km to 20km;
[0044] The power of the centrifugal fan is 18000 - 18500W, and a wind speed of 10 - 30m / s can be generated in the core area of the outlet, which is used to simulate different external flow fields of the skin heat exchanger on the ground;
[0045] The simulated heat source is a heat source plate with a thin film heating sheet laid on it, which is used to heat the working medium;
[0046] The circulating pump is used to provide the kinetic energy for the flow of the working medium, and by adjusting the rotation speed, the working medium has different flow rates and head in the flow channel of the skin heat exchanger;
[0047] The thermocouples are used to measure the temperatures at the skin inlet pipe, the skin outlet pipe and the outer wall surface of the skin. The temperature data collector records and stores the instantaneous temperature data measured by the thermocouples and synchronously displays the data through the digital display function;
[0048] In order to avoid the loss of the heat of the working medium during the flow and conduction process, heat insulation felts are laid on the inner wall surface of the skin heat exchanger.
[0049] When the test system is operating, a simulated heat source provides heat, and a circulation pump provides the flow of the working fluid, causing the working fluid to flow in a closed loop in the skin inlet pipeline and the skin outlet pipeline, flowing from the skin inlet pipeline to the skin outlet pipeline, and exchanging the heat provided by the simulated heat source with the ram air on the outer wall surface of the skin heat exchanger.
[0050] The present invention also provides a ground test method for the convective heat transfer coefficient of the outer skin of an aircraft based on a temperature chamber, which is completed by the above test system and includes the following steps:
[0051] S1: According to the test principle, build a test system and determine the measuring points;
[0052] S2: Calibrate the thermocouples at each measuring point;
[0053] S3: Set the rotational speed of the centrifugal fan, and at the same time, set the rotational speed of the circulation pump according to the flow resistance of the test system;
[0054] S4: Set the power of the thin film heating sheet according to the estimated heat transfer capacity of the skin heat exchanger;
[0055] S5: Debug the test system to ensure that the test system operates correctly;
[0056] S6: Design the flight altitude, query the meteorological data to obtain the temperature and air pressure values at this flight altitude, set the temperature and air pressure values in the low-temperature and low-pressure temperature chamber according to the meteorological data, and start the low-temperature and low-pressure temperature chamber;
[0057] S7: Start the centrifugal fan and adjust the outlet speed of the fan;
[0058] S8: Judge whether the test system is in a balanced state according to the temperature data displayed by the temperature data collector. If the test system is in a balanced state, record the temperatures at each measuring point and calculate the convective heat transfer coefficient; if the test system is not in a balanced state, continue to wait until the test system is in a balanced state, then record the temperatures at each measuring point and calculate the convective heat transfer coefficient;
[0059] S9: Change the rotational speed of the centrifugal fan, repeat steps S7 - S8, obtain more than 3 groups of corresponding data of wind speed and convective heat transfer coefficient, and use the least squares method to fit to obtain the definite functional relationship between the convective heat transfer coefficient and the flight speed;
[0060] S10: Determine the next flight altitude, query the meteorological data to obtain the temperature and air pressure values at this flight altitude, repeat steps S7 - S9, and obtain the definite functional relationship between the convective heat transfer coefficient and the flight speed at this flight altitude.
[0061] Specifically, in step S1, the test principle is:
[0062] After the test system reaches equilibrium, according to the law of conservation of energy, there is the following relationship: the working fluid exchanges the heat provided by the simulated heat source with the ram air on the outer wall of the skin heat exchanger, and the heat taken away by the working fluid is equal to the heat exchanged between the skin and the ram air:
[0063] Rho*Cp*V*(Ti - To) = h*A*(Tw - Ta)
[0064] Therefore,
[0065] h = Rho*Cp*V*(Ti - To) / A / (Tw - Ta)
[0066] where Ti is the temperature at the inlet pipe of the skin heat exchanger, °C;
[0067] To is the temperature at the outlet pipe of the skin heat exchanger, °C;
[0068] Ta is the temperature of the incoming air, °C;
[0069] T W is the temperature of the outer wall of the skin, °C;
[0070] Cp is the specific heat capacity of the working fluid, J / (kg°C);
[0071] Rho is the density of the working fluid, kg / m 3 ;
[0072] V is the volume flow rate of the working fluid, m 3 / s;
[0073] A is the outer wall area of the skin heat exchanger, m 2 ;
[0074] According to the heat transfer coefficient correlation for air flowing over a flat plate surface,
[0075] Nu = 0.0296*Re 0.8 *Pr 0.6
[0076] Nu = h*x / k
[0077] Re = rho*v*x / mu
[0078] We get: h = Nu*k / x = 0.0296*rho 0.8 *v 0.8 *x 0.8 / mu 0.8 *Pr 0.6 *k / x = C*v 0.8
[0079] where Nu is the Nusselt number, a dimensionless number;
[0080] Re is the Reynolds number, a dimensionless number;
[0081] Pr is the Prandtl number of air, a dimensionless number;
[0082] x is the length of the skin heat exchanger, in m;
[0083] k is the thermal conductivity of air, in W / (m℃);
[0084] rho is the air density, in kg / m 3
[0085] mu is the dynamic viscosity of air, in Pa*s;
[0086] v is the flight speed, in m / s;
[0087] Among them, C is a parameter related to the physical properties of air, which is a function of temperature T and pressure P. The functional relationship is:
[0088] C = 0.0296 * rho 0.8 * x -0.2 / mu 0.8 * Pr 0.6 * k = f(T, P)
[0089] Therefore, under the conditions of constant temperature and pressure and unchanged relative positions of the centrifugal fan and the skin heat exchanger, C is a constant, and h is 0.8 positively correlated with v.
[0090] By adjusting the wind speed in the core area of the centrifugal fan outlet, the convective heat transfer coefficients at different wind speeds are obtained, and the least squares method is used to fit h = C * v 0.8 , and the value of C is calculated, so as to obtain the definite functional relationship between the convective heat transfer coefficient and the flight speed, that is:
[0091] h = f(v)
[0092] According to the meteorological conditions at different flight altitudes, the air pressure and temperature at a specific altitude are adjusted, and the curve of the convective heat transfer coefficient varying with the flight speed at different flight altitudes can be obtained. The altitude is H, and h H = f(v).
[0093] Specifically, in step S1, the measurement points are respectively the skin inlet pipe measurement point, the skin outlet pipe measurement point, and the skin outer wall measurement point set at the skin inlet pipe, the skin outlet pipe, and the skin outer wall.
[0094] Specifically, in step S2, the method for calibrating the thermocouples at each measurement point is: placing the standard thermocouple and the thermocouple to be calibrated in the same environment, changing the environmental temperature, and measuring the curve of the electromotive force and temperature relationship of the thermocouple to be calibrated.
[0095] Specifically, in step S3, the rotational speed of the circulation pump is set according to the flow resistance of the test system. The flow resistance has been measured during the design of the aircraft skin heat exchanger. The higher the rotational speed of the circulation pump, the stronger its driving ability and the greater the flow resistance it can overcome. Based on the performance curve of the circulation pump and the flow resistance, the rotational speed of the circulation pump is determined.
[0096] Specifically, in step S4, the power of the heating element is set according to the estimated heat transfer capacity of the skin heat exchanger. Before the test, the convective heat transfer coefficient h of the aircraft outer skin heat exchanger can be estimated through theoretical calculations. Then, the power P of the heating element can be set as P = h * A * ΔT * 110%, where A is the outer wall area of the skin heat exchanger, ΔT is the temperature difference between the estimated outer wall of the skin heat exchanger and the air, and 110% is the increment set considering the margin. Among them, the heating element is a polyimide film heating element.
[0097] It should be noted that the theoretical estimated value of the convective heat transfer coefficient h of the aircraft outer skin heat exchanger is calculated through the following formula:
[0098] h = Nu * k / x = 0.0296rho 0.8 v 0.8 x -0.2 mu -0.8 Pr 0.6 k
[0099] Among them, Nu is the Nusselt number, a dimensionless number;
[0100] Re is the Reynolds number, a dimensionless number;
[0101] Pr is the Prandtl number of air, a dimensionless number;
[0102] x is the length of the skin heat exchanger, m;
[0103] k is the thermal conductivity of air, W / (m℃)
[0104] rho is the air density, kg / m 3 ;
[0105] mu is the dynamic viscosity of air, Pa*s;
[0106] v is the flight speed of the aircraft, m / s.
[0107] Specifically, in step S5, the test system is operated on the ground. After debugging, ensure that the temperatures measured by each thermocouple in the test system are consistent with the ground temperature, and the power and rotational speed of the circulation pump are within the normal range to ensure that the test system is error-free.
[0108] Specifically, in step S8, the balanced state of the test system means that the temperature fluctuations of each measuring point within 5 minutes are < 1℃.
[0109] The ground test system for the convective heat transfer coefficient of the outer skin of an aircraft based on an incubator can simulate different external flow fields of the skin heat exchanger on the ground by generating wind speeds with a centrifugal fan, and simulate different high-altitude low-temperature and low-pressure environments with a low-temperature and low-pressure incubator, thus completing the measurement of the convective heat transfer coefficient of the outer skin of the aircraft on the ground.

The skin heat exchanger is provided with a heat dissipation flow channel and is supported and fixed by a fixed bracket, so that the outer wall surface of the skin heat exchanger is in the core area of the centrifugal fan outlet; the core area of the outlet means that the distance from the centrifugal fan outlet ≤ D (30 mm), and D is the diameter of the centrifugal fan outlet;
[0114] The circulation pump, the temperature collector, and the simulated heat source are arranged outside the low-temperature and low-pressure incubator;
[0115] The skin heat exchanger, the circulation pump, and the simulated heat source are connected in series through skin pipelines to form a closed-loop circuit; among them, one end of the skin heat exchanger is connected to one end of the circulation pump through a skin inlet pipeline, and the other end of the skin heat exchanger is connected to the simulated heat source through a skin outlet pipeline; the circulation pump and the simulated heat source are connected through a separate pipeline; the skin inlet pipeline and the skin outlet pipeline pass through the holes on the side of the box body and penetrate the box body;
[0116] The thermocouples are respectively arranged on the outer wall surface of the skin heat exchanger, one end of the skin inlet pipeline connected to the inner wall surface of the skin heat exchanger, and one end of the skin outlet pipeline connected to the inner wall surface of the skin heat exchanger, and are all connected to the temperature data collector;
[0117] The simulated heat source is a heat source plate with a thin film heating sheet laid on it;
[0118] The inner wall surface of the skin heat exchanger is laid with heat insulation felt.
[0119] When the test system is operating, the simulated heat source provides heat, and the circulation pump provides the flow of the working fluid, causing the working fluid to flow in a closed loop in the skin inlet pipeline and the skin outlet pipeline, flowing from the skin inlet pipeline to the skin outlet pipeline, and exchanging the heat provided by the simulated heat source with the ram air on the outer wall surface of the skin heat exchanger.
[0120] Embodiment 2
[0121] The ground test method for the convective heat transfer coefficient of the outer skin of an aircraft based on an incubator in this embodiment is completed through the above test system, and includes the following steps:

[0124] S2: Calibrate the thermocouples at each measuring point.
[0125] Place the standard thermocouple and the three thermocouples to be calibrated in the same environment, change the environmental temperature, and measure the relationship curve between the electromotive force and temperature of the thermocouples to be calibrated.
[0126] S3: Set the rotational speed of the centrifugal fan, and at the same time, set the rotational speed of the circulation pump according to the flow resistance of the test system.
[0127] The rotational speed of the centrifugal fan is: 1500 rpm.
[0128] The flow resistance of the test system is 1057.95 Pa. According to the performance curve and flow resistance of the circulation pump, the rotational speed of the circulation pump is determined to be 10000 rpm.
[0129] S4: Set the power of the thin film heating sheet according to the estimated heat transfer capacity of the skin heat exchanger.
[0130] Before the test, through theoretical calculation:
[0131] h = Nu * k / x = 0.0296 rho 0.8 v 0.8 x -0.2 mu -0.8 Pr 0.6 k
[0132] Look up the table to obtain the numerical values of relevant parameters, and it can be estimated that the convective heat transfer coefficient h of the outer skin heat exchanger of the aircraft is about 200 W / (m 2 ℃) under the flight conditions of a flight altitude of 1049 m and a flight speed of 155 km / h. Then the power P of the heating sheet can be set to P = h * A * ΔT * 110% = 200 W / (m 2 ℃) * 0.072 m2 *20 °C * 110% = 31.38 W; where A is the outer wall area of the skin heat exchanger, ΔT is the temperature difference between the estimated outer wall of the skin heat exchanger and the air, and 110% is the increment set to account for the margin.

[0136] Flight altitude h = 1000 m, atmospheric temperature = 8.5 °C, atmospheric pressure = 89.9 Kpa;
[0137] S7: Start the centrifugal fan and adjust the fan outlet speed;

Substitute into h = Rho * Cp * V * (Ti - To) / A / (Tw - Ta), and we can get h = 55.1 W / (m 2 °C).
[0145] C is a parameter related to the physical properties of air and is a function of the atmospheric temperature T and the atmospheric pressure P. The functional relationship is: C = 0.0296 * rho 0.8 *x -0.2 / mu 0.8 *Pr 0.6 *k = f(T, P). After calculation, C1 = 8.73;

Repeat steps S7 - S8 to obtain more than 3 groups of corresponding data of wind speed and convective heat transfer coefficient, as shown in Table 1. C = (C1 + C2 + C3) / 3 = (8.73 + 8.68 + 8.59) / 3 = 8.7. Using the least squares method to fit, when the flight altitude is 1000 m, the determined functional relationship between the convective heat transfer coefficient and the flight speed is: h 1000m = 8.7v 0.8 ;
