These units work in conjunction with the main engines during actual flight, sharing the same flight environment conditions. However, in current high-altitude simulation tests, auxiliary power units often cannot obtain the same simulated environmental conditions as the main engines, resulting in test results that do not accurately reflect their performance characteristics under real flight conditions.

[0034] It should be noted that, Figure 1 The middle arrow indicates the direction of airflow intake.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a design method for a test device for joint debugging of an auxiliary power unit and an engine in a test chamber, specifically including the following steps:

Typically, the design is performed using a standard atmospheric sea-level static state as the standard, and the calculation method is as follows:

[0053] ρ is the air density under standard conditions, and the corresponding operating condition value can also be obtained by looking up a table according to the actual situation.

[0054] Ma is the Mach number in the design flow tube, typically 0.4 to 0.5;

[0055] γ is the specific heat ratio of air, which is usually taken as 1.4. For other operating conditions, it is necessary to refer to the air thermodynamic property table to obtain it.

[0062] To calculate the pressure loss coefficient λ, it is first necessary to calculate the Reynolds number Re of the inlet flow measurement section for this pipe diameter. The calculation method is as follows:

[0063] (5)

[0064] in:

[0065] μ is the gas dynamic viscosity coefficient, which is generally taken as 1.82×10⁻⁵ Pa·s;

[0070] The pressure loss coefficient λ is calculated based on equation (5), and the inner diameter D of the inlet flow measurement section is calculated based on equation (3). in The length L of the inlet flow measurement section is calculated using equation (2). The friction loss ΔP of the inlet flow measurement section can be obtained using the following formula:

[0071] (7)

[0072] Calculate the friction loss along the inlet flow measurement section. If it does not exceed 1%, the system can be put into use. If it exceeds 1%, adjustments can be made by reducing the design Mach number Ma in the flow pipe (not recommended to be below 0.1) or reducing the absolute roughness ε of the pipe inner wall. Note that when using standard parts in the calculation, Ma should be Ma. r D in It should be the inner diameter of the standard pipe fitting.

[0073] Measurement point distribution method

[0074] The inlet flow measurement section is equipped with three circumferentially distributed total pressure measuring points, three static pressure measuring points, and three total temperature measuring points. The distance between the measuring sections of the total pressure, total temperature, and static pressure measuring points is 10% of the pipe diameter. The measuring points at each section do not interfere with each other. There is an angle difference in the circumferential distribution. The total pressure measuring point is located at a distance of 1 D from the engine inlet. in .

[0075] The design method for the contraction section is as follows:

[0076] The contraction section is a transition section connecting the inlet flow measurement section and the pre-chamber air intake section. The surface of the contraction section adopts a segmented double-twist design, and the calculation formulas are as shown in equations (8) to (12), where the large end connects to the air intake section and the small end connects to the grate sealing section;

[0092] Design method for the sealing section of the toothed comb:

[0093] The gap between the teeth of the grate sealing section is designed to be 1-2 mm. The calculation method for the gap between the teeth is shown in formula (13). The number of teeth is not less than 10, and the angle of the teeth is usually 30°.

[0096] Design method for the air intake section of the front chamber:

[0097] The piping from the forecourt to the vicinity of the auxiliary power unit inlet is typically quite long. Considering the stability of the auxiliary power unit's intake pressure, the forecourt intake section should also have a certain pressure-stabilizing function. Therefore, D f Usually greater than D in Select D f Afterwards, similar to the inlet measurement section, the pressure drop per 100 meters should be checked according to equations (14) to (17). Note that during the calculation process, the maximum air flow rate W of the auxiliary power unit under standard conditions is considered to be continuous and constant, and the gas adopts an ideal gas model.

[0111] The outlet pressure of a typical mixer is about 110 kPa to 130 kPa. When the inlet section of the pre-chamber reaches the large end of the contraction section, the pressure drop should be controlled at around 10 kPa. If the pressure drop is too large, the pipeline design should be adjusted, taking into account measures such as reducing the length, reducing the number of bends, and increasing the pipe diameter.

[0112] The shell is a fully enclosed structure made of stainless steel, capable of withstanding pressure loads and temperature changes in a high-altitude simulated environment. The shell consists of a left shell, a right shell, and a mounting platform base, with the contact surfaces sealed by gaskets. The shell is equipped with an intake pipe connection hole, an exhaust pipe connection hole, an engine bleed air interface, a cable threading hole, and an observation window, facilitating connection to intake and exhaust pipes and the engine, as well as auxiliary power unit cable connections and maintenance. The shell has a static pressure measurement interface, enabling real-time monitoring of the internal pressure. By adjusting the intake valve, the pressure is maintained at approximately the same level as the pressure inside the high-altitude test chamber, preventing stress deformation caused by excessive pressure differences. The shell and auxiliary power unit mounting platform are integrated, taking into account the installation and connection requirements of various auxiliary power unit accessories while ensuring structural strength and sealing.

[0113] The auxiliary power unit installation platform adopts a modular design concept, and the position of the installation adjustment mechanism can be adjusted to adapt to different models of auxiliary power units; the platform is equipped with a multi-dimensional adjustment mechanism to achieve precise positioning of the auxiliary power unit installation position; and it adopts a mounting base with a shock-resistant and reinforced structure to reduce the vibration impact on the auxiliary power unit.

[0114] The exhaust pipe is made of high-temperature resistant material, which can withstand the high-temperature exhaust gas discharged from the auxiliary power unit; the pipe is designed with an airflow guiding device to ensure smooth exhaust and reduce pressure loss; the exhaust pipe is connected to the direct-connection high-altitude platform exhaust diffuser, and the exhaust is uniformly drawn by the extraction unit; temperature and pressure monitoring points are set in the pipe to monitor the exhaust status in real time.

[0115] The control system communicates in real time with the main control system of the high-altitude test platform to ensure the synchronization of test parameters; it has a safety switching function that automatically activates protective measures in abnormal situations, switching to in-cabin air intake or atmospheric dual-flow air intake; and it integrates a high-altitude chamber data acquisition system to record all key parameters during the test.

[0116] The following description uses a specific embodiment as an example:

[0117] Inlet Measurement Section: This example uses a circumferential intake auxiliary power device, so it is necessary to calculate and design the inlet measurement section. Ma is set to 0.5, W to 3.5 kg / s, and a seamless stainless steel metal pipe is used with an absolute roughness of 0.2 mm. The selected working condition is standard atmospheric sea level (pressure 101.325 kPa, temperature 15℃ air). The calculated density is 1.225 kg / m3, and the dynamic viscosity coefficient is 1.82 × 10⁻⁵ Pa·s. An ideal gas model is used for calculation, with γ = 1.4 and R = 287 J / (kg·K). Substituting the parameters into equations (2) to (7) yields the following results:

[0118] In this example, the inner diameter of the pipe is calculated by measuring the inlet section using a non-standard machining process. Therefore:

[0119]

[0120]

[0121] n' is designed to be 3mm.

[0122] Calculate Re to get:

[0123]

[0124] Therefore, the flow regime is turbulent. Thus, the method for calculating λ is as follows: solving for the implicit function yields:

[0125]

[0126] According to formula (7), ΔP can be calculated:

[0127]

[0128] The pressure after loss, calculated from the inlet section of the anterior chamber, is 120 - 9.36 = 110.64 kPa. The calculated loss ratio is 0.947 / 110.64 = 0.0086, which is approximately 0.86%, less than 1%. Therefore, using a straight pipe section with an inner diameter of 146 mm and a length of 366 mm as the inlet flow measurement section is reasonable. At this time, the distance between the total pressure measurement section and the exhaust end of the inlet flow measurement section is 146 mm, and the spacing between the total pressure measurement section, the total temperature measurement section, and the static pressure measurement section is not less than 14.6 mm.

[0129] Contraction section: The inner surface of the contraction section is calculated according to formulas (8) to (12), where:

[0130]

[0131]

[0132]

[0133] Taking the inflection point coefficient k as 0.35, the following calculations were performed:

[0134]

[0135] Calculate the value of α, and we get:

[0136]

[0137] Calculate the value of β to get:

[0138]

[0139] The calculated r1 and x i Substituting α and β into equations (8) and (9) respectively, we obtain x∈(0, x... i ) and x∈(x i , l c The curve in the interval is selected with the same wall thickness as the inlet measurement section.

[0140] Anterior chamber air intake section: Connects to the high-altitude test platform air intake mixing unit. In this example, the inlet pressure of the air intake section is 120 kPa. f The length is 450mm, W is 3.5kg / s, and L is... f The pipeline is 13.6m long, constructed using seamless stainless steel tubing with an absolute roughness of 0.2mm. It includes three 90° gentle bends and one regulating butterfly valve. The operating conditions are standard atmospheric sea level (pressure 101.325kPa, air temperature 15℃), and the calculated density is 1.225kg / m³. 3 The dynamic viscosity coefficient is 1.82×10⁻⁵ Pa·s. Using an ideal gas model, the parameters are substituted into equations (14) to (17) to obtain the following results:

[0141]

[0142]

[0143] If Re is greater than 4000, it indicates turbulence. The turbulence algorithm (16) is used. Since this function is implicit, after iterative solution, we obtain:

[0144]

[0145] The pressure loss coefficient introduced by a 90° gentle turn is found to be 0.5, therefore:

[0146]

[0147] The pressure loss coefficient introduced by the butterfly valve is found to be 0.05.

[0148]

[0149] Substituting the pipe length and diameter, we get:

[0150]

[0151] The total pressure loss along the friction path is 9.36 kPa, which meets the design requirements.

[0152] A high-precision regulating valve is installed on the intake section. The high-precision regulating valve is an electric butterfly valve with a response time of less than 0.5 seconds and a control accuracy of ±1%FS.

[0153] Grate sealing section: The designed grate gap Δr = 1mm, and the inner diameter of the grate section is 154mm. The designed grate tooth height is 6mm, that is, the diameter at the tooth height of the grate section is Db = 166mm. The number of grate teeth is 10, the bevel angle is 30°, the length of the larger side is 5mm, and the total length of the grate section is designed to be 55mm.

[0154] The housing is constructed entirely of 304 stainless steel, with the design pressure determined based on the simulated altitude, simulating a minimum of 12 kPa (corresponding to an altitude of 15 km). The housing wall thickness is determined through finite element analysis to ensure structural strength under extreme conditions. The housing exterior is covered with a cryogenic protective layer. Three sets of static pressure measuring points are located on both the left and right housings. The auxiliary power unit testing and electrical cable routing holes are designed on the top of the right housing, and are sealed with high-temperature resistant sealant after cable connection. Silicone sealing rings are used for compression sealing between the left and right housings and between the left and right housings and the mounting platform base. The housing connections and fastenings utilize flange connections. The entire housing is mounted below the engine's front intake manifold. During testing, the intake connection hole connects to the intake flow measurement section, sealed with a silicone gasket, and fixed with a flange. The exhaust pipe connection hole connects to the straight section of the exhaust pipe, sealed with a silicone gasket, and fixed with a flange.

[0155] The main structure of the auxiliary power unit installation platform is made of 304 stainless steel, and the load-bearing pin of the adjustment mechanism is made of high-strength alloy steel. The Y-axis adjustment mechanism is a threaded type adjustment mechanism with high-precision fine threads. The X and Z-axis adjustment mechanisms are strip-hole adjustment structures. Soft rubber washers are used to isolate vibration transmission between the test bench and the adapter, and the vibration value measured by strain gauges is no greater than 45 mm / s.

[0156] The exhaust pipe is made of Inconel 625 high-temperature alloy and is designed to operate at temperatures up to 1000℃. The pipe diameter is determined based on the exhaust flow rate of the auxiliary power unit. A gradually expanding guide section can be added to reduce the flow velocity of the discharged high-temperature gas and control the flow velocity within the range of 50-80 m / s.

[0157] The distance between the exhaust pipe outlet and the high-altitude test exhaust diffuser is no more than 10 times the outlet diameter. High-temperature gases from the auxiliary power unit are introduced into the high-altitude test exhaust system using engine exhaust ejector and the high-altitude test exhaust pump unit. The exhaust temperature sensing element uses a type K thermocouple, and the exhaust pressure sensor uses a high-temperature pressure sensor.

[0158] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. Therefore, any substitution of equivalent components or equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of protection of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, the technical features, technical features and technical solutions, and technical solutions in the present invention can be freely combined and used.
