Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric arc heaters, in particular to a cold air mixing chamber of an electric arc heater. Background Art
[0002] With the development of spacecraft, the requirements for ground thermal protection tests are becoming increasingly higher. The test capability of ground thermal protection tests is required to cover as many flight orbit states of hypersonic aircraft as possible. One of the commonly used equipment for ground thermal protection tests is the arc heater, which heats the gas through a high-power electric arc to obtain high-temperature gas that meets the test requirements. The enthalpy adjustment range of conventional arc heaters is relatively narrow. Under actual operating conditions, the enthalpy range of tubular arc heaters is usually 1-5MJ / kg, and the enthalpy range of sheet arc heaters is usually 10-20MJ / kg, which means that there is no arc heater covering 5MJ / kg-10MJ / kg.
[0003] At present, in the development of new hypersonic aircraft, full-orbit thermal protection tests require an enthalpy range of 1MJ / kg-15MJ / kg, and existing arc heaters cannot meet the requirements.
[0004] Prior art methods have employed a cold air mixing chamber at the outlet of a blade-type arc heater to mix cold air into the hot airflow, thereby reducing the total airflow enthalpy. However, due to limitations in the cooling structure, existing cold air mixing chambers often utilize multiple separate air intake rings. An air intake ring is positioned between each two adjacent sections of cooling pipes, and the air intake rings are secured to the adjacent sections via flanges. While this approach meets the air intake requirements, the mixing chamber becomes excessively long, with excessive wall area, resulting in significant heat loss. Even without the introduction of cold air, the excessive heat loss reduces the maximum enthalpy of the gas exiting the cold air mixing chamber to 10MJ / kg, failing to meet the gas enthalpy range requirements for full-track thermal protection testing.

[0066] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0067] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cold air mixing chamber of the arc heater provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a tubular inner shell 1, a water sealing ring 2, an air sealing ring 3 and a connecting flange 4.
[0068] See also Figures 7 to 9As shown, the outer circumference of the tubular inner shell 1 is axially distributed with multiple annular grooves. These grooves alternately serve as cooling channels 11 and air inlet channels 12. That is, if the first annular groove serves as a cooling channel 11, the second adjacent annular groove serves as an air inlet channel 12, the third annular groove serves as a cooling channel 11, and so on. Two adjacent annular grooves share a groove wall. The annular grooves cover the entire outer circumference of the tubular shell 1. At the bottom of the air inlet channel 12, multiple air inlet holes 121 are annularly spaced and extend through the tubular inner shell 1. The air inlet holes 121 communicate with the inner cavity of the tubular inner shell 1, allowing air to enter the inner cavity.
[0069] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figures 4 to 6 As shown, each cooling channel 11 is correspondingly provided with a water sealing ring 2. Specifically, the water sealing ring 2 is sleeved in the cooling channel 11 and sealed with the side wall of the cooling channel 11 to prevent water leakage. The sealing connection between the water sealing ring 2 and the cooling channel 11 can adopt an existing sealing connection structure or sealing method, for example, a sealing ring is provided on the docking surface, and sealing is performed by welding, etc. In this embodiment, welding sealing is preferably adopted to achieve the connection and fixation of the third party while satisfying the sealing. More preferably, diffusion welding process is adopted for welding. There is a gap between the water sealing ring 2 and the bottom of the cooling channel 11, forming a relatively closed annular cooling water channel (connected to the outside only through the water inlet and the water outlet), and the water inlet and the water outlet are radially provided on the water sealing ring 2, which are used to connect the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe respectively.
[0070] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figures 14 to 16 As shown, each air inlet duct 12 is provided with a corresponding air sealing ring 3. Specifically, the air sealing ring 3 is sleeved in the air inlet duct 12 and sealed with the side wall of the air inlet duct 12. The sealing connection method refers to the sealing connection method between the water sealing ring 2 and the cooling duct 11, which will not be repeated here. Similarly, the air sealing ring 3 is spaced apart from the bottom of the air inlet duct 12 to form an annular air inlet channel. The air sealing ring 3 is provided with an air inlet port in the radial direction for connection with the air inlet pipe. The bottom of the air inlet duct 12 is provided with an air inlet hole 121 that penetrates the wall of the tubular inner shell 1. After passing through the air inlet channel, the gas enters the inner cavity of the tubular inner shell 1 through the air inlet hole 121 and mixes with the hot air flow therein.
[0071] See also Figures 1 to 4 As shown, connecting flanges 4 are provided at both ends of the tubular inner shell 1 to facilitate connection with upstream and downstream devices or to facilitate serial connection of multiple tubular inner shells 1 as needed.
[0072] During operation, the cold air mixing chamber's two ends are connected to an arc heater (not shown) and a nozzle (not shown) via connecting flanges 4, respectively. Depending on the gas enthalpy, ambient temperature gas is injected into the tubular housing for mixing and reducing the gas enthalpy. The air inlet holes 121 of each air inlet duct 12 can be uniformly controlled, allowing air to be admitted to only all or some of the inlet ducts 12 as needed. Multiple cold air mixing chambers can also be connected in series if necessary. Cooling water circulates continuously at high speed within each cooling water channel to ensure the cold air mixing chamber remains within a safe operating range. This compact cold air mixing chamber minimizes the internal wall area while meeting air intake and cooling requirements, preventing excessive heat loss and increasing the gas enthalpy adjustment range to meet the gas enthalpy range requirements for full-track thermal protection testing. Furthermore, due to the reduced size and overall weight of the cold air mixing chamber in this embodiment, compared to existing cold air mixing chambers that require hoisting equipment, this cold air mixing chamber can be installed by two people without any hoisting equipment, improving installation convenience.
[0073] In this embodiment, to ensure structural strength and conserve materials, the main body of the tubular inner shell 1 is integrally machined, while the connecting flange 4 is separately machined and then connected to the tubular inner shell 1. Specifically, a boss 13 is provided at each end of the tubular inner shell 1. The connecting flange 4 is sleeved over the boss 13 and secured thereto by welding.
[0074] In one example, the tubular inner shell 1 is made of copper, which provides excellent thermal conductivity. Cooling water is provided on the outer wall of the inner shell to protect the inner wall of the tubular inner shell 1 from being burned by high-temperature gases. The connecting flange 4 is made of stainless steel, which provides better structural strength and a more reliable connection.
[0075] To further improve the cooling effect, in one example, see Figures 4 to 6 As shown, at least one annular groove is provided on boss 13, serving as cooling channel 11 at boss 13. A water sealing ring 2 is positioned within cooling channel 11. Two radially extending connecting channels 41 are provided on connecting flange 4, communicating with the water inlet and outlet of water sealing ring 2 at boss 13, respectively, for mounting the water inlet and outlet pipes. Of course, in some examples, if air intake is required at connecting flange 4, multiple annular grooves may be provided, for example, two annular grooves, serving as cooling channel 11 and air inlet 12, respectively.
[0076] In order to improve the axial tensile strength of the cold air mixing chamber and improve the overall structural strength of the cold air mixing chamber, in one example, Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the two ends of the two bosses 13 facing away from each other are respectively provided with a limiting ring segment 14, the outer diameter of the limiting ring segment 14 is smaller than the outer diameter of the boss 13, and the shape is stepped. Figure 5 、 Figure 6、 Figure 11 and Figure 13 As shown, a retaining ring 42 is provided inside the ring of the connecting flange 4. The inner diameter of the retaining ring 42 is greater than or equal to the outer diameter of the limiting ring segment 14 and smaller than the outer diameter of the boss 13. When the connecting flange 4 is sleeved on the boss 13, the retaining ring 42 is sleeved on the limiting ring segment 14 and axially abuts against the boss 13 (at the step). Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple tie rods 7 are positioned between the two connecting flanges 4. These tie rods 7 are evenly spaced circumferentially, with each end of the tie rods 7 connected to the two connecting flanges 4. The tie rods 7 cooperate with the retaining ring segments 14 and the retaining ring 42 to achieve axial stability. In one example, the tie rods 7 are bolts, secured with nuts to tighten the two connecting flanges 4.
[0077] In order to facilitate the installation and positioning of the water sealing ring 2 and the air sealing ring 3, in one example, see Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the annular grooves are all stepped grooves, and the width of the bottom groove is smaller than the width of the upper part, that is, the annular groove is divided into two sections, and the groove width of the lower section is smaller than the groove width of the upper section. The water sealing ring 2 and the air sealing ring 3 both rest on the steps of the stepped groove, which can ensure the accurate dimensions of the cooling water channel and the air inlet channel and facilitate installation and fixation. It should be noted that the stepped groove can be stepped on one side of the groove wall or on both sides of the groove wall. The stepped groove with stepped walls on both sides is preferably used.
[0078] In order to facilitate the arrangement of water supply and outlet, in one example, see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cold air mixing chamber of the arc heater further includes a water inlet device 5 and a water outlet device 6. The water inlet device 5 includes a water distribution pipe 51 and the same number of water inlet pipes 52 as the water inlets. One end of the water inlet pipe 52 is connected to the water inlet, and the other end is connected to the water distribution pipe 51. The water distribution pipe 51 is provided with a water inlet main port for connecting to a water source.
[0079] The water outlet device 6 includes a water collection pipe 61 and water outlet pipes 62, the same number as the water outlets. One end of the water outlet pipe 62 is connected to the water outlet, and the other end is connected to the water collection pipe 61. The water collection pipe 61 is provided with a main water outlet. In this way, the connection of the water supply end can be completed by simply connecting the main water inlet to the water supply pipe. Similarly, the connection of the water outlet can be completed by simply connecting the main water outlet to the main water outlet pipe. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the water inlet device 5 and the water outlet device 6 are distinguished according to the pipelines to which they are connected. The one connected to the water supply pipe is the water inlet device, and the one connected to the water outlet pipe is the water outlet device.
[0080] In this embodiment, to ensure adequate air intake, protect the tubular inner shell 1, and minimize heat loss due to the excessively large inner shell wall surface of the tubular inner shell 1, the axial width of the air intake channel is smaller than the axial width of the cooling water channel, and the ratio of the axial width of the air intake channel to the axial width of the cooling water channel is in the range of 1:1.5 to 1:3. For example, the axial width of the air intake channel is 4 mm, and the axial width of the cooling water channel is 7 mm. For another example, the axial width of the air intake channel is 4 mm, and the axial width of the cooling water channel is 10 mm. For another example, the axial width of the air intake channel is 5 mm, and the axial width of the cooling water channel is 13 mm. For another example, the axial width of the air intake channel is 6 mm, and the axial width of the cooling water channel is 18 mm.
[0081] In this embodiment, see Figures 14 to 16 As shown, the air sealing ring 3 is composed of two arc-shaped segments, which are convenient for installation in the air inlet 12. The two arc-shaped segments are spaced opposite to each other, and two air inlets are formed at the two intervals. One end of the air inlet pipe 31 is a circular tube, and the other end is a rectangular tube. The rectangular tube is welded to the two arc-shaped segments and is connected to the air inlet. In this way, the air inlet pipe 31 with a larger flow rate can be used to match the air sealing ring 3 with the smallest axial size as possible, and the corresponding air inlet 12 with a small axial size. In one example, the above-mentioned air inlet pipe 31 is obtained by flattening one end of a circular tube. Of course, it is also possible to select a pipe that has this shape when it is formed, and this is not limited here. Similarly, in order to facilitate installation, the water sealing ring 2 is also composed of two arc-shaped segments. The water inlet and outlet can be set on the arc-shaped segment or formed by the interval between the two arc-shaped segments, and this is not limited here.
[0082] To facilitate centering connection, in one example, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the two ends of the tubular inner shell 1 and / or the connecting flange 4 are provided with stoppers 8, that is, the stoppers 8 can be set on the end face of the tubular inner shell 1, can also be set on the end face of the connecting flange 4, and can also be set partially on the end face of the tubular inner shell 1 and partially on the end face of the connecting flange 4. In order to facilitate the series connection of multiple tubular inner shells 1, preferably, the stopper 8 at one end is a convex stopper and the stopper 8 at the other end is a concave stopper, and the structures of the convex stopper and the concave stopper can match, that is, when two cold air mixing chambers are connected in series, the convex stopper can be inserted into the concave stopper. Sealing grooves for accommodating sealing rings can also be provided at the two ends of the tubular inner shell 1 and / or the connecting flange 4 to improve the sealing performance.
[0083] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. In the absence of a conflict of solutions, the various technical features mentioned in each embodiment can be combined in any manner to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
[0084] In addition, without departing from the scope of the present invention, the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may be modified, or some of the technical features thereof may be replaced by equivalents, without causing the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
