Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of high-speed aircraft, and more specifically, to a distributed fan-shaped reaction system and a use method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] High-speed aircraft, with its advantages of rapid response, rapid strike, and easy penetration, have become an important tool for changing the future war form and combat mode, and are the key to international strategic games. When an aircraft flies at high speed, due to shock wave compression, viscous friction, etc., the temperature of its outer wall and nearby areas rises rapidly. In order to ensure that the internal components work normally within the allowable temperature range and maintain their aerodynamic shape, effective structural thermal protection design must be carried out.

[0003] Thermal protection technology can be mainly divided into passive and active thermal protection technology. Passive thermal protection that uses thermal protection materials for insulation or ablative materials for phase change to absorb heat is the most widely used aerodynamic heat treatment measure and is used in many high-speed aircraft (such as the US X-30 and X-47). This type of thermal protection technology has a relatively simple structure, but the preparation process is complex and the cost is high. When the ablative thermal protection system is flying at high speed, the material will gradually be ablated as the temperature rises, which can easily change the overall aerodynamic shape and cause accidents. At the same time, due to the weak heat absorption capacity of the passive thermal protection system, the thickness and weight of the materials required in long-flight applications are large, which seriously compresses the payload of the aircraft. Active thermal protection technology is mainly divided into two categories, namely sweat cooling and convection cooling. The commonly used cooling medium for sweat cooling is water. It draws on the way organisms sweat to dissipate heat, using the latent heat of vaporization of water to absorb heat and form a thermal insulation barrier, but the system reliability is poor. Convection cooling is often used in aerospace vehicles or aviation vehicles. Generally, circulating liquid hydrocarbon fuel is used as a coolant, and the heat of the structure surface is taken away by the physical heat capacity of the fuel. Due to the limitation of fuel coking, this heat absorption mode is only applicable to supersonic flight at speeds below Mach 5. In recent years, with the further improvement of the performance of high-speed aircraft, especially the development of high-speed aircraft, its aerodynamic thermal environment has become more complex and harsh. In addition, due to the rapid upgrading and iteration of electronic components in the internal load of aircraft in recent years, the operating power and the heat generated by it have increased rapidly. Therefore, achieving efficient heat dissipation of internal loads has become one of the key issues for the stable operation of aircraft. It can be seen that it is of great significance to develop an efficient and reliable method to absorb the aerodynamic heat of high-speed aircraft.

[0004] In view of the above difficulties, based on experimental and theoretical research, it is found that when a mixed solution of alcohol and water is used as the cooling medium of the active thermal protection system, it can absorb a large amount of aerodynamic heat through physical vaporization reaction. In particular, when the system contains a suitable catalyst, it can catalyze the strong endothermic reforming reaction of alcohol and water. Taking ethanol and water solution as an example, the reforming reaction after vaporization can generate hydrogen and carbon monoxide (Equation 1), the gas volume increases three times, and the heat absorbed per mole of fluid reaches 256.8kJ. When the aerodynamic heat temperature reaches 600℃, the heat absorption of pure water is only 3.6MJ / Kg, while the total amount of physical and chemical heat absorption of the mixed solution of ethanol and water under the same conditions can reach more than 6.2MJ / Kg. In addition, the small molecular gases (such as hydrogen and carbon monoxide) produced can be used to do work externally. Therefore, based on this active thermal protection technology, not only can the heat absorption capacity of the system be improved, but also aerodynamic heat can be converted into chemical energy to achieve heat-to-work conversion, thereby reducing the thickness of the aircraft insulation layer, increasing the system payload, and improving the maneuverability of the aircraft.

[0005]

[0006] Due to the space and load limitations of high-speed aircraft, the above heat-to-work conversion system must have the following characteristics at the same time: 1) The heat-to-work conversion system is light and thin; 2) It has a high degree of integration, which is convenient for in-situ replacement of passive insulation panels; 3) The storage temperature of the alcohol-water working fluid is not higher than 120°C, so that its vapor pressure is low, thereby reducing the thickness of the storage tank wall and reducing the weight of the system; 4) The temperature of the catalyst and reactor is not lower than 300°C to ensure that the reforming reaction is fast and efficient.

[0007] However, the current heat-to-work conversion system cannot meet the above requirements at the same time. Therefore, the development of suitable reaction and storage containers is the key to the efficient operation of the heat-to-work conversion system. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art and to provide a distributed fan-shaped reaction system and its use method and application.

[0066] The catalyst 9 includes a modified Al2O3 carrier and active components Cu and an auxiliary agent Zn loaded on the modified Al2O3 carrier.

[0067] The high-density liquid cooling medium 10 is a mixed solution of ethanol and water, and the mass concentration of ethanol is 50%.

[0068] The method for using the distributed sector reaction system of the present embodiment in the active thermal protection system of a high-speed aircraft comprises the following steps: the high-density liquid cooling medium 8 in the cooling medium storage tank 1 is vaporized by aerodynamic heat heating, and then enters the sector reactor 2 through a pipeline under pressure to absorb aerodynamic heat by physical phase change latent heat and sensible heat, and then undergoes a chemical endothermic reaction under the action of a catalyst 9 to produce high-pressure fuel gas small molecules, and the high-pressure fuel gas small molecules enter the gas storage tank 4 through the electric control valve 3 for storage.

[0071] Example 2

[0072] The distributed sector reaction system of this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a distributed sector-shaped reaction system of Example 2 of the present invention. Compared with Example 1, this embodiment is different only in that the reactor is composed of a plurality of sector-shaped reactors 2 arranged adjacent to each other in a circular pattern, and the outlet 23 of each sector-shaped reactor 2 is connected by a pipeline to form a flow channel for the reaction gas.

[0073] The method of using the distributed sector reaction system of this embodiment in the active thermal protection system of a high-speed aircraft is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0074] Example 3

[0075] The only difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the cooling medium is a mixed solution of methanol and water, and the mass concentration of methanol in the mixed solution is 60%.

[0076] Example 4

[0077] The only difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the cooling medium is a mixed solution of methanol and water, and the mass concentration of methanol in the mixed solution is 80%.

[0078] Comparative Example 1

[0079] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the reactor of this comparative example is a common plate structure, and the overall thickness and wall thickness of the reactor are the same as those of the sector reactor. Figure 5 As shown, the rest are the same as in Example 1.

[0080] Test Case

[0081] The reactors of Examples 3-4 and Comparative Example 1 were heated by quartz lamps to evaluate the catalytic reaction activity of the catalyst in the catalytic reforming reactor for different alcohol-water components, thereby simulating the aerodynamic thermal scene of a high-speed aircraft. The surface temperature of the reactor was adjusted by controlling the power of the quartz lamp array, and the outlet gas was quantified by gas chromatography.

[0082] Depend on Figure 3It can be seen that in the test temperature range, the methanol conversion rate increases significantly with the increase of temperature, and the conversion rate reaches 100% at 600°C. From the product composition, it can be seen that when the reaction temperature is lower than 550°C, the products are mainly H2 and CO, indicating that the main methanol decomposition reaction occurs (CH3OH→CO+2H2). When the reaction temperature reaches 600°C, CO2 appears in the product, indicating that the water vapor shift reaction occurs (CO+H2O→CO2+H2).

[0083] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that the working fluid heat sink corresponding to Example 4 at different temperatures reaches 4.5MJ / kg at 400°C, which is 43% higher than the water working fluid heat sink; at 400°C, the working fluid heat sink reaches 4.5MJ / kg, which is 43% higher than the water working fluid heat sink; at 600°C, the heat sink reaches 5.6MJ / kg, which is 55% higher than the water working fluid heat sink, and the reaction gas phase impulse in the whole temperature range exceeds 150s.

[0084] Depend on Figure 5 It can be seen that in Comparative Example 1, a common plate-type reforming reactor was made. When the surface temperature was 500°C and 600°C, the corresponding methanol conversion rates were 54% and 81%, respectively, while the corresponding temperature conversion rates of the sector-shaped reactor were 78% and 100%, respectively. It can be seen that the sector-shaped reactor can significantly improve the efficiency of the heat-to-work conversion system by improving the heat and mass transfer efficiency.

[0085] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
