Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of engine nacelle heat dissipation, and particularly relates to a structure-integrated cavity nacelle structure with heat dissipation function. BACKGROUND
[0002] Medium-bypass-ratio engines are suitable for bomber aircraft, small transport aircraft, business aircraft and other aircraft types. The electronic equipment of the aircraft is greatly increased compared with small fighter aircraft. The heat dissipation demand of the engine on the system is obviously increased, and the fuel consumption rate of the engine is required to be reduced. Therefore, the performance loss of the engine is required to be reduced. The cold source of the system heat dissipation function usually adopts cold air in the outer bypass of the engine. The cooling air compressed by the compressor flows through the outer bypass of the engine. The functions are as follows: one is to cool the high-temperature core engine, which is also the cold source of the radiator; and the other is to further combust the fuel that is not fully combusted at the nozzle, thereby providing engine thrust.
[0003] The heat dissipation demand of the aircraft system is realized through the radiator structure. The independent radiator is usually fixed on the engine nacelle in a mechanical connection mode and is installed in the outer bypass of the engine. The low-temperature air in the outer bypass flows through the surface of the radiator to dissipate heat. The radiator in the outer bypass flow channel causes the performance loss of the outer bypass of the engine to increase. In order to reduce the volume of the radiator and the loss of the outer bypass, the structure of the radiator itself is generally compact and complex, and the heat dissipation is limited when the cold air is contacted.
[0004] The technical defects of the existing scheme of the heat dissipation structure are as follows:
[0005] 1) The radiator is installed in the outer bypass flow channel of the engine. As the heat dissipation demand of the system increases, the volume of the radiator continuously increases. In order to ensure the heat dissipation amount, the shielding area of the radiator to the cross section of the outer bypass increases, which causes the aerodynamic loss of the outer bypass to be large, thereby causing the performance loss of the engine to increase. The assembly diagram of the radiator is shown in Figure 1 ;
[0006] 2) The increase in the volume of the radiator causes the weight to increase. When the engine flies in each working condition, the local load of the nacelle at the installation position of the radiator significantly increases, and the bearing capacity requirement of the thin-walled nacelle of the engine increases;
[0007] 3) As the structure size of the radiator needs to be balanced with the performance loss of the outer bypass, the structure of the radiator is generally complex, and the processing period and cost are high;
[0008] 4) The installation structure of the independent radiator is complex, and a large number of components are fixed on the engine nacelle through bolts, mounting seats, sealing pads, locking structures and the like;
[0009] 5) The complex installation structure of the independent radiator is not conducive to the installation, disassembly and maintenance of the engine.
[0010] Therefore, how to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the radiator and reduce the influence of the radiator on the engine performance is a problem to be solved. SUMMARY
