Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of experimental testing equipment, and in particular relates to a portable unmanned aerial vehicle fuel system test and control box. Background Art
[0002] The aircraft fuel system is like the "energy heart" and "power lifeline" of the aircraft. Its core mission is to store fuel safely and reliably, and to ensure that under various extremely complex conditions throughout the flight, whether it is climbing to a thin atmosphere at an altitude of 10,000 meters, or when the aircraft makes drastic maneuvering flight attitude changes, it can continuously and uninterruptedly deliver fuel with millimeter-precision, following the strict pressure and flow requirements of the engine, and providing a solid energy guarantee for the stable and efficient operation of the engine. At the same time, its multiple additional functions are like a sophisticated behind-the-scenes "adjustment master", effectively cooling many related systems on the aircraft, cleverly balancing the aircraft's attitude, accurately maintaining the aircraft's center of gravity within the strictly specified range, and comprehensively maintaining the aircraft's flight safety and performance stability.
[0003] With the deep transformation and rapid development of the aviation field towards multi-electric and all-electric technology systems, the demand for aircraft fuel system function and performance testing is growing exponentially and the standards are being strictly upgraded. The speed of test data acquisition needs to achieve a qualitative leap in order to capture the ever-changing system status; the quantity should strive for massive coverage to mine potential key information; the accuracy should be extremely subtle and no deviation is allowed. For the pumps and valve components in the fuel system, the start-stop control requires more agility, precision, and intelligent collaboration. The interactive experience between operators and test equipment needs to be reshaped urgently. It needs to leap from traditional mechanical operation to an intelligent, friendly, and efficient interactive mode. Data visualization also needs to be innovated from simple numerical listing to rich and intuitive graphics and charts to deeply enable operators to have real-time insight into the test process and make accurate decisions.
[0004] For drones, the functional and performance test scenarios of their fuel systems are rich and complex. Full-scale tests simulate the operating conditions throughout the aircraft's life cycle, factory tests ensure product quality, environmental tests examine adaptability to extreme environments, combustion-engine matching tests refine power synergy, and on-board and ground tests verify system integration. The various test sites are randomly distributed and scattered across different geographical regions and environmental conditions. During the test process, the physical quantities to be measured vary widely, from conventional indicators such as pressure, temperature, and flow rate to special parameters such as fuel composition and impurity content; the measurement range spans from tiny micro-pressure and low-temperature ranges to high-pressure and high-temperature extremes; the signal types are complex and diverse, covering various modalities such as analog, digital, and pulse signals, posing extremely stringent comprehensive requirements for portable test measurement and control boxes. On the one hand, their external dimensions must be compact and small, and they must be light and portable, like lightweight intelligent devices, so that they can flexibly move with the test team among various test sites; on the other hand, they need to have excellent versatility and can accurately adapt to the requirements of different test scenarios through a simple configuration process, seamlessly integrating into diverse test systems.
[0005] Currently, most acquisition and control devices in the industry generally adopt the combination mode of a PC computer (relying on the powerful but complex labview software platform) and a data acquisition card, or the architecture of an industrial computer (also based on labview) with a PCI card. The drawbacks of such traditional device architectures are fully exposed under the scrutiny of modern test requirements:
[0006] a) The test measurement and control box is bulky and inconvenient to carry; in terms of appearance design, the large and cumbersome appearance makes it extremely difficult for users to carry, not only occupying a large amount of space but also being easily damaged by collisions during transportation, increasing the equipment maintenance cost and risk;
[0007] b) The integration of data acquisition and valve control in the test measurement and control box is low; at the internal architecture level, the integration of data acquisition and valve control is severely insufficient, and the collaborative operation between the two is sluggish and inefficient, resulting in the obstruction of the test process coherence and the reduction of the overall efficiency;
[0008] c) The test measurement and control box cannot be used alone, and the realization of device functions highly depends on an external PC computer, lacking independence. Once it is separated from the support of the PC computer, the flexibility and timeliness of test development are severely limited;
[0009] d) The test data acquisition rate is low, easily causing the loss of key test data;
[0010] e) The visualization level of test data is low, and the data display on the human-machine interface is still in numerical form, with a lower visualization level than forms such as curves and tables;
[0011] f) It is difficult to collect dynamic process test data. Due to the limitations of the sampling rate and numerical display, the dynamic response characteristics during the product test process cannot be directly observed.
[0012] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a portable test equipment with high integration, multiple functions, intelligent portability, which can avoid excessive dependence on laptops, and has high test efficiency and high flexibility to support the full-scenario test requirements of the UAV fuel system.
