[0019] An engine power system for an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes an engine 1, a liquid hydrogen storage tank 2, a hydrogen fuel cell 3, and a battery 4.
[0020] An external superconducting generator 12 is arranged on the transmission gear box 11 of the engine 1 , a cooling flow path is provided on the external superconducting generator 12 , and the external superconducting generator 12 is connected to the engine power supply system 41 .
[0021] The liquid hydrogen storage tank 2 is arranged outside the engine 1 and is connected to the cooling flow path inlet through the liquid hydrogen pipeline 21.
[0022] The hydrogen fuel cell 3 is arranged outside the engine 1 , connected to the cooling flow path outlet through the gas hydrogen pipeline 22 , and connected to the power supply system 42 of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.
[0023] The storage battery 4 is arranged outside the engine 1 , and is connected to the external superconducting generator 12 , the hydrogen fuel cell 3 , and is connected to the engine power supply system 41 and the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42 through lines.
[0024] When starting the engine 1, the external superconducting generator 12 can be controlled to be in the electric mode, and the battery 4 can be used to power the external superconducting generator 12, so that the external superconducting generator 12 drives the engine 1 to rotate through the transmission gear box 11. After the speed of the engine 1 reaches the speed required for starting, the battery 4 is used to power the engine power supply system 41 to supply fuel and ignite the engine 1 to complete the starting of the engine 1. In this process, the lubrication of the engine 1, the nozzle actuation and other actions are also powered by the battery 4.
[0025] After the engine 1 is successfully started, the external superconducting generator 12 can be controlled to be in the power generation mode, and the engine 1 is driven to generate electricity through the transmission gear box 11. The electric energy generated by the external superconducting generator 12 is supplied to the engine power supply system 41 for use, and is transmitted to the battery 4 for storage. When the electric energy generated by the external superconducting generator 12 cannot meet the power demand of the engine power supply system 41, the battery 4 is used to supply power to the engine power supply system 41.
[0026] After the engine 1 is successfully started, the liquid hydrogen storage tank 2 can be controlled to simultaneously supply liquid hydrogen to the cooling flow path through the liquid hydrogen pipeline 21. The liquid hydrogen absorbs the heat generated by the external superconducting generator 12 along the way, and cools the external superconducting generator 12 to maintain the low temperature required for the superconductivity of the external superconducting generator 12 and maintain a high power generation capacity. The liquid hydrogen absorbs heat and vaporizes into gaseous hydrogen, which flows to the hydrogen fuel cell 3 through the gaseous hydrogen pipeline 22, so that the hydrogen fuel cell 3 works to generate electricity. The electric energy generated by the hydrogen fuel cell 3 is supplied to the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42 for use, and is transmitted to the battery 4 for storage. When the electric energy generated by the hydrogen fuel cell 3 cannot meet the power demand of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42, the battery 4 is used to supply power to the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42. For example, when the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft takes off, the power generation power of the hydrogen fuel cell 3 is usually low, and it is difficult to meet the power demand of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42. At this time, the battery 4 can supply power to the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42.
[0027] In the engine power system for the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft disclosed in the above embodiment, the power consumption of the engine 1 mainly comes from the external superconducting generator 12, the power consumption on the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft mainly comes from the hydrogen fuel cell 3, and the battery 4 can realize the regulation of current imbalance.
[0028] According to the full flight envelope analysis of the power consumption of the engine power supply system 41 and the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42, the power of the external superconducting generator 12 and the hydrogen fuel cell 3 can be determined to achieve a lightweight and low fuel consumption design for the engine 1 under the comprehensive full flight envelope.
[0029] The starting power W1=A×W2 of the external superconducting generator 12 can be determined according to the power W2 required for starting the engine 1 , where A is a calculation coefficient and has a value range of 1.1 to 1.2 to meet the starting time requirement of the engine 1 .
[0030] The ground operating speed and high-altitude operating speed of the external superconducting starting generator 12 vary by less than 40%, and its rated power generation W3 appears in the take-off state. Its power generation W5 in the high-altitude long-term working state is attenuated by less than 40% compared with W3. The maximum power consumption W4 of the engine power supply system 41 in the full flight envelope appears in the maximum state on the ground, and the power consumption W6 required for the high-altitude long-term working state is less than 30% of W4. Therefore, the rated power generation W3=0.8W4 of the external superconducting starting generator 12 can be determined based on the maximum power consumption W4 in the full flight envelope of the engine power supply system 41. Taking a smaller value for W3 can meet the power demand of the engine power supply system 41.
[0031] In order to ensure the power demand of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft during the high-altitude reconnaissance stage and to ensure that the external superconducting generator 12 is in a reliable cooling state, the rated power generation power W7 of the hydrogen fuel cell 3 takes the larger value of the maximum power W10 of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42 and the power W11 generated by the maximum flow rate of liquid hydrogen for cooling the external superconducting generator 12, that is, W7=max{W10, W11}, among which the maximum power W10 of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42 can be taken as the sum of the maximum power W8 of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft platform and the maximum power W9 of the electronic reconnaissance equipment, that is, W10= W8+W9, and the maximum flow rate of liquid hydrogen for cooling the external superconducting generator 12 can be taken as the flow rate during the ground takeoff stage.
[0032] The maximum capacity of battery 4 usually occurs during the startup phase of engine 1 and the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. The startup time of engine 1 can be preliminarily designed to be 60 seconds, leaving a 1-fold margin to ensure rapid startup of engine 1 and reliable takeoff of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. The capacity of battery 4 is Q1=120×(W1+W4+W8).
[0033] In typical examples, W1≈1.5W4, W1≈W8, W1≈0.8W9.
[0034] In the prior art solution, the power of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and the engine 1 are both transmitted by the transmission gearbox 11, and the maximum power transmitted by the transmission gearbox 11 is 0.3W4+W8+W9=2.45W1. In the engine power system for the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft disclosed in the above embodiment, the maximum power transmitted by the transmission gearbox 11 is W1, which is 40% of the prior art solution. It can greatly reduce the transmission power of the transmission gearbox 11, reduce the force on the transmission gearbox 11, reduce the wear of the transmission gearbox 11, and ensure the reliability of the transmission gearbox 11. In addition, when working at high altitude for a long time, the power required to be extracted from the engine 1 is 0.3W4, which is numerically equal to 0.2W1, which is 8% of the prior art solution. It can greatly reduce the impact on the working stability of the engine 1, ensure the stable flight of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and reduce the fuel consumption rate of the engine 1 to ensure the airborne time of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.
[0035] In the engine power system for the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft disclosed in the above embodiment, by using the battery 4, excess electrical energy can be stored, the difference in electricity consumption can be adjusted, the heat loss caused by the reflux of the mechanical system can be avoided, the fuel consumption rate of the engine 1 can be reduced, and the airborne time of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft can be increased.
[0036] The engine power system for the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft disclosed in the above embodiment can be controlled by referring to the following method.
[0037] When starting the engine 1, the external superconducting generator 12 is controlled to be in the electric mode, and the battery 4 is used to power the external superconducting generator 12, so that the external superconducting generator 12 drives the engine 1 to rotate through the transmission gear box 11. After the speed of the engine 1 reaches the speed required for starting, the battery 4 is used to power the engine power supply system 41, and the engine 1 is fueled and ignited to complete the starting of the engine 1.
[0038] After the engine 1 is successfully started, the external superconducting generator 12 is controlled to be in the power generation mode, and the engine 1 is driven to generate electricity through the transmission gear box 11. The electric energy generated by the external superconducting generator 12 is supplied to the engine power supply system 41 for use, and is transmitted to the battery 4 for storage. When the electric energy generated by the external superconducting generator 12 cannot meet the power demand of the engine power supply system 41, the battery 4 is used to supply power to the engine power supply system 41.
[0039] After the engine 1 is successfully started, the liquid hydrogen storage tank 2 is controlled to pass liquid hydrogen into the cooling flow path through the liquid hydrogen pipeline 21. The liquid hydrogen absorbs the heat generated by the external superconducting generator 12 along the way, cools the external superconducting generator 12, maintains the low temperature required for the superconductivity of the external superconducting generator 12, and maintains a high power generation capacity. The liquid hydrogen absorbs heat and vaporizes into gaseous hydrogen, which flows to the hydrogen fuel cell 3 through the gaseous hydrogen pipeline 22, so that the hydrogen fuel cell 3 works to generate electricity. The electric energy generated by the hydrogen fuel cell 3 is supplied to the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42 for use, and is transmitted to the battery 4 for storage. When the electric energy generated by the hydrogen fuel cell 3 cannot meet the power demand of the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42, the battery 4 is used to supply power to the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft power supply system 42.

Without departing from the principles of the present application, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
