Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of aviation power devices, and in particular relates to a high-speed cross-medium combined power system based on a rotating rocket. [Background technology]

[0002] Cross-medium aircraft refers to a new concept special aircraft that can fly in the air and dive underwater. It has the advantages of high speed and long range of missile weapons and good concealment of submarines. It can realize repeated switching of water / air medium, making it difficult for the enemy's conventional combat system to cope with it, forming a subversive combat capability, and becoming a new combat power growth point in the future maritime combat system.

[0003] At present, large-scale cross-medium aircraft, such as rocket-assisted torpedoes, all adopt the structure of rocket booster + torpedo. After the boost is completed, the two are separated. The torpedo enters the water once to complete the mission and cannot get out of the water again. Although small cross-medium aircraft can realize repeated switching between water / air media, their air modes mostly use propeller propulsion, which has a low speed, and the response speed and penetration capability are greatly limited. Although ramjet / water ramjet can achieve high-speed navigation, boosters are required for acceleration in both air and water, and their use is limited. In the future, the realization of high-speed cross-medium flight will face two difficulties: one is how to achieve a high degree of integration of flight power and underwater power; the other is how to solve the contradiction between high-speed flight and multiple cross-medium. Therefore, it is necessary to design a new power system suitable for high-speed cross-medium aircraft. [Summary of the invention]

[0014] The second technical solution adopted by the present invention is a working method of a high-speed cross-medium combined power system based on a rotating rocket, which includes the following contents:

[0015] When the high-speed cross-medium combined power system is in the three modes of before entering the water, underwater navigation and before leaving the water, the water inlet is opened and the air inlet is contracted and closed;

[0016] The water inlet guides the sucked water or air into the housing of the axial flow water pump, and the axial flow water pump accelerates the sucked water. The water spray port is used to spray out the accelerated high-speed water flow to generate thrust.

[0017] Further, the following are included:

The overall combined power system has the advantages of high performance and strong maneuverability of a rotary turbine rocket, and realizes the characteristics of repeatable starting and adjustability of a solid rocket, thereby improving the adjustment capability and adaptability of the power system.
