Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of macroscopic thermochemical ablation behavior prediction technology for carbon-carbon composite materials, and in particular to a calculation method for thermochemical ablation of composite materials based on physical information neural networks. Background Technology
[0002] In the aerospace field, spacecraft face extremely complex thermal environments. C / C composite materials, with their excellent high-temperature mechanical properties, low density, and thermal shock resistance, have become key materials for thermal protection systems. However, under conditions of high temperature and high-speed airflow, C / C composite materials undergo complex macroscopic thermochemical ablation phenomena, including material mass loss and changes in surface morphology. These directly affect the structural safety of the spacecraft and the success or failure of the mission. Accurately understanding the ablation law is crucial for the design of thermal protection systems. Currently, numerical calculation methods are mainly used to solve the macroscopic thermochemical ablation of C / C composite materials. On the one hand, empirical formula methods rely on fitting experimental data under specific operating conditions, resulting in poor generalization ability and an inability to effectively capture the multi-physics coupling effects such as heat conduction, gas diffusion, and chemical reactions, making it difficult to adapt to the complex and ever-changing actual flight environment. On the other hand, while the method of coupling computational fluid dynamics with ablation models can solve the interaction between the fluid and solid domains, it requires manually defining a large number of reaction mechanisms, diffusion coefficients, and other parameters, leading to extremely high computational costs. At the same time, the dynamic ablation boundary requires frequent mesh reconstruction, resulting in large numerical errors and reducing computational accuracy and efficiency.

[0096] In step S101, the specific steps for constructing the macroscopic thermochemical ablation reaction equation of the carbon-carbon composite material are as follows:
[0097] Based on the thermochemical ablation reaction mechanism of carbon-carbon composite materials and the elemental mass conservation equation and thermochemical equilibrium equation, a macroscopic thermochemical ablation reaction equation for carbon-carbon composite materials is constructed; specifically:
[0098] C / C composites are composed of carbon fibers and a carbon matrix, with carbon as the main element, except for a few impurities. As the temperature increases, the thermochemical ablation reactions of C / C composites mainly include carbon oxidation, carbon-nitrogen reactions, and carbon sublimation. Based on these ablation mechanisms, the massless ablation rate of the material can be obtained by solving the elemental mass conservation equation and the thermochemical equilibrium equation. Figure 2 As shown, the mass loss flux of an element mainly includes diffusion mass flux and convection mass flux, and its expression is:

[0105] Combining the above equations, we can obtain the thermochemical ablation equation for each element in the system:
[0106]
[0107] In step S102, based on the macroscopic thermochemical ablation reaction equation, a thermochemical ablation heat conduction equation for carbon-carbon composite materials is constructed; the specific steps are as follows:
[0108] Based on the thermochemical ablation reaction process of carbon-carbon composite materials and the homogeneous isotropic nature of carbon-carbon composite materials, a thermochemical ablation heat conduction equation is constructed; specifically:
[0109] A large amount of heat is generated at the ablation boundary layer based on the thermochemical ablation equation. When this heat enters the interior of the structure, it is a heat and mass transfer process. At this time, the surface thermochemical ablation of the C / C composite material leads to mass loss and carries away surface heat, which is a multiphysics problem involving heat and mass transfer. When solving the thermochemical ablation heat transfer problem on a macroscopic scale, the C / C composite material is usually regarded as a homogeneous isotropic material, and its heat conduction equation is:
[0110]
[0111] in, The density of the C / C composite material; t is the specific heat capacity of the C / C composite material; T is the temperature; t is the time; k is the thermal conductivity.
[0112] Specifically, a second type of boundary condition is used on the ablated surface, namely:
[0113]
[0114] Where q is the heat flux of the C / C composite material; it is determined by the energy balance of the ablation wall.

[0117] Where k is the thermal conductivity and h is the convective heat transfer coefficient. The ambient temperature;
[0118] For the thermochemical ablation mass transfer problem of C / C composite materials, the mass ablation rate of the material surface is calculated based on the dimensionless mass ablation rate:
[0119]
[0120] in, To restore enthalpy, and for carbon-carbon composite materials ;
[0121] Based on the above formula for mass ablation rate, the surface retreat rate of the C / C composite material is:
[0122] .
[0123] In step S103, based on the macroscopic thermochemical ablation reaction equation and the thermochemical ablation heat conduction equation, a loss function is constructed using the mean square error method to build a physical information neural network model; the specific steps are as follows:
[0124] Based on the obtained macroscopic thermochemical ablation reaction equation and thermochemical ablation heat conduction equation, a loss function is constructed using the mean square error method. A physical information neural network model is established with spatial coordinates and time as inputs and temperature field at various moments of the thermochemical ablation behavior of carbon-carbon composite materials as output. The physical information neural network model is used to predict the temperature field at different moments of the ablation behavior of carbon-carbon composite materials.
[0125] Specifically, according to one embodiment of this application, the equations are solved based on the aforementioned thermochemical ablation theory, heat and mass transfer equations, and a deep neural network framework to establish a corresponding heat conduction physical information neural network model. First, spatial coordinates x and time t are input, and the data passes through a fully connected layer. Each neuron in the fully connected layer is connected to all neurons in the previous layer, with each connection corresponding to a weight parameter and each neuron corresponding to a bias parameter. Substituting the obtained weight parameters and bias parameters into the physical information neural network, the corresponding mathematical expression is:
[0126]
[0127] Where f is the activation function, which can be ReLU, Sigmoid, Tanh, etc.; w and b are the unknown parameters that the neural network model needs to optimize, which are the weights and biases of the neural network, respectively; n is the parameter of the physical information neural network; where the fully connected layer includes 4 hidden layers, each of which has 40 neurons and uses Tanh as the activation function.
[0128] Then, by using automatic differentiation techniques to solve the derivative terms in the heat conduction equation and boundary conditions, the temperature T is obtained as the output layer, resulting in a physical information neural network model that outputs the temperature field at various moments in the thermochemical ablation behavior of carbon-carbon composite materials. In this physical information neural network, constructing the loss function is a core step in integrating physical laws into deep learning. Therefore, this application utilizes mean squared error loss to construct the loss function, i.e., calculating the losses in the heat conduction equation, boundary conditions, and initial conditions. Finally, the gradient descent algorithm in deep neural networks is used to optimize the network parameters. The specific process is as follows: Figure 3 As shown; the loss function mainly consists of the residuals of the heat conduction equation, the upper and lower boundary residuals, and the initial condition residuals, and its mathematical expression can be written as:
[0129]
[0130]
[0131]

[0134] In step S104, a macroscopic geometric model of the carbon-carbon composite material is constructed; the specific steps are as follows:
[0135] According to one embodiment of this application, a macroscopic geometric model of a C / C composite material is established, and material properties are assigned to the model, such as... Figure 4 As shown, for example, density, specific heat capacity, and thermal conductivity; then sampling points are taken for the model's interior, boundaries, and initial conditions, such as... Figure 5 As shown; finally, a heat flow is applied to the upper surface of the model, and a convective heat transfer boundary condition is applied to the lower surface.

[0137] The macroscopic geometric model of the carbon-carbon composite material is input into the physical information neural network model for iterative training to obtain the trained physical information neural network model.
[0138] Based on the constructed physical information neural network model, a loss function using the augmented Lagrange method is introduced.
[0139] Based on the loss function of the augmented Lagrange method, the constructed physical information neural network is trained by the gradient descent optimization algorithm to obtain the optimal loss function weights and neural network parameters, and the final physical information neural network model is obtained, which outputs the temperature field of the thermochemical ablation behavior of carbon-carbon composite material at each time step.
[0140] According to one embodiment of this application, the specific process is as follows: When solving the heat conduction equation based on the physical information neural network and macroscopic geometric model, the initial conditions and boundary conditions are applied in the form of loss, i.e., "soft constraints". This type of constraint sometimes cannot effectively apply the initial conditions and boundary conditions, especially for transient heat conduction problems. If the initial conditions and boundary conditions cannot be effectively applied, the network training can easily fall into incorrect solutions and trivial solutions. Therefore, an augmented Lagrangian method is introduced into the residuals of the initial conditions and boundary conditions to effectively apply the initial conditions and boundary conditions. Then the loss function can be rewritten as:

This represents the residual of the heat conduction equation. and Let these represent the initial conditional loss and boundary loss after introducing the augmented Lagrange multiplier, respectively. For a predefined constant, for A lower bound exists;
[0146] Based on the improved loss function described above, the constructed physical information neural network is trained using the gradient descent optimization algorithm, continuously updating the network parameters. , and Approaching the minimum value makes the loss function Minimize the value to ensure that the physical laws of the heat conduction equation are satisfied at all data points in the domain, thereby enabling the solution of the heat conduction equation.
[0147] In step S106, the macroscopic thermochemical ablation carbon-carbon composite material to be detected is input into the trained physical information neural network model to obtain the prediction results of the macroscopic thermochemical ablation behavior of the carbon-carbon composite material; the specific steps are as follows:

Figure 6 As shown, compared with existing COMSOL numerical simulation results, the physical information neural network improves both computational accuracy and efficiency without the need for mesh generation.
[0149] This application achieves a deep integration of data-driven and physical constraints by embedding the physical laws of heat conduction into neural networks. It breaks through the dependence of traditional methods on ultra-fine meshes and large amounts of experimental data, effectively solving problems such as high computational costs, complex dynamic boundary handling, and insufficient prediction accuracy for small samples.
