Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of aerospace engine technology, and in particular to an adjustable fuel injection support structure and control method for a circular cross-section flow channel ramjet engine. Background Technology
[0002] Future horizontal takeoff and landing aerospace vehicles need to operate in an extremely wide range, from zero speed to hypersonic speed and from ground to low Earth orbit, requiring propulsion systems with both high specific impulse and high thrust-to-weight ratio. A combined propulsion system based on turbines, rockets, and ramjet engines is an inevitable trend, with large-scale ramjet engines requiring Mach 2 to 10 or higher being the key to their development.
[0003] Ramjet engines use air as an oxidizer and generate thrust through fuel injection, mixing, and combustion. Delivering fuel to the core mainstream and efficiently mixing it with air is a key challenge for wide-range operation. Typically, ramjet engine fuel injection employs two main methods: direct injection near the wall and injection into the mainstream via an insert structure. Due to bottlenecks such as insufficient penetration depth and limited mixing and diffusion range in near-wall direct injection, practical large-scale ramjet engines primarily utilize insert structures such as fuel injector plates to deliver fuel to the core mainstream for mixing.
[0004] Existing fuel injection support plate structures mostly use linkage transmission mechanisms to achieve support plate movement, resulting in complex mechanical structures and limited response speed of the fuel injection support plate. While the support plate structure undertakes the function of fuel injection, it also creates flow around and obstructs the high-speed incoming flow. On the one hand, this is beneficial for enhancing fuel-air mixing, but on the other hand, it also brings aerodynamic losses and reduces the main flow work capacity. Excessive losses can cause a significant decline in engine performance. The support plate structure is generally thin, flat, and slender. Under the dual effects of convection and radiation heat transfer, the thermal environment of its leading edge stagnation point and structural surface is very harsh, which can easily cause heat sink structure ablation and damage or increase the need for active cooling. Summary of the Invention

[0026] The technical solution will now be explained in detail: Reference Figures 1-4 As shown, a first aspect of the present invention provides an adjustable fuel injection support structure for a circular cross-section flow channel ramjet engine, comprising an adjustable support unit 2 and a drive assembly 3 disposed on the inner flow wall 1 of the combustion chamber, wherein: The inner wall of the inner flow wall 1 is provided with a plurality of grooves 11; the two ends of the grooves 11 are not in the same radial end face, and the plurality of grooves 11 are spread out in a petal shape. For example, in this embodiment, there are 6 grooves 11, and the central angle corresponding to the projection of the grooves 11 on the radial end face is less than 60 degrees, so that the structure will not break, the integrity is good, and there will be no interference when the arc-shaped support plate 22 rotates. The adjustable support plate unit 2 includes multiple rotating shafts 21 and multiple arc-shaped support plates 22. The rotating shafts 21 are rotatably mounted on the inner flow wall 1 with their axial direction parallel to the axis of the inner flow wall 1. The arc-shaped support plates 22 are mounted at the ends of the rotating shafts 21. The arc-shaped support plates 22 have a swept-back strip design and a sharp leading edge. Multiple arc-shaped support plates 22 are arranged in a circumferential array along the inner flow wall 1. The arc-shaped support plates 22 can be stored in the groove 11. The rotating shafts 21 rotate under the driving action, thereby driving the arc-shaped support arm to rotate around the axis of the rotating shafts 21, realizing the switching between the two states of the arc-shaped support plates 22 from fully open to fully closed. The drive assembly 3 includes multiple drive motors 31, which are driven and connected to the rotating shaft 21. The multiple drive motors 31 operate synchronously. The forward and reverse rotation of the drive motors 31 enables the arc-shaped support plate 22 to rotate in both directions, thus switching between the two states of the arc-shaped support plate 22. The extreme positions at both ends can be controlled by the stroke of the drive motors 31, which is relatively simple and reliable.
[0027] The adjustable fuel injection support plate structure for the circular cross-section flow channel ramjet engine proposed in this embodiment drives the rotating shaft 21 to rotate the arc-shaped support plate 22 through the synchronous operation of multiple drive motors 31. The structure is simple and the arc-shaped support plate 22 has a fast response speed. The arc-shaped support plate 22 has a swept-back strip design and a sharp leading edge, which can reduce airflow resistance and thus reduce aerodynamic losses. When the arc-shaped support plate 22 is retracted, it is located in the groove 11, which reduces airflow resistance and is also beneficial for overall thermal protection.
[0028] In some embodiments, the plurality of arc-shaped support plates 22 are arranged symmetrically after being fully deployed. The symmetrical arrangement of the arc-shaped support plates 22 can make the overall structure uniformly stressed and the shear forces cancel each other out, which can improve the service life of the device.
[0029] In some embodiments, the curvature of the arc-shaped support plate 22 is designed to match the curvature of the combustion chamber, so that after the arc-shaped support plate 22 is housed in the groove 11, the outer edge of the arc-shaped support plate 22 is flush with the inner flow wall 1. This structural design reduces airflow resistance and improves overall thermal protection.
[0030] In some embodiments, the arc-shaped support plate 22 has a medium flow channel inside, and one end of the arc-shaped support plate 22 facing the injection area has an oil injection hole connecting the medium flow channel. The rotating shaft 21 also has a connecting channel connecting the medium flow channel and the external oil supply system. The rotating shaft 21 can also serve as an oil supply pipe. The groove 11, while accommodating the arc-shaped support plate 22, can also play a role in stabilizing the flame and enhancing combustion. The overall structure is compact, and the arc-shaped support plate 22 has high adjustment response efficiency.
[0031] In some embodiments, the connection channel is also connected to the gas tank built into the ramjet engine via a hose. The pipeline connecting the connection channel to the external fuel supply system is equipped with an oil valve, and the hose is equipped with an air valve. When the support plate is in a non-fuel injection state, the air valve is turned on and the oil valve is turned off, and the gas carried by the ramjet engine is used for injection cooling to form thermal protection.
[0032] In some embodiments, the adjustable fuel injection support plate structure of the circular cross-section flow channel ramjet engine further includes a controller and an angle sensor. The angle sensor is installed on the arc-shaped support plate 22 and is used to measure the actual rotation angle of the arc-shaped support plate 22 and send it to the controller. The controller is used to control multiple drive motors 31 to rotate and control them through PID closed-loop control. By comparing the actual rotation angle of the arc-shaped support plate 22 with the target value, the input electrical signal is continuously adjusted so that the arc-shaped support plate 22 accurately reaches the target position.
[0033] Based on the same concept, a second aspect of the present invention, combined with... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a control method for an adjustable fuel injection support plate structure for a circular cross-section flow channel ramjet engine, as described in the first aspect embodiment, is provided, comprising: Step S1: Determine the operating status and operating mode of the engine combustion chamber based on the aircraft's flight status, and further determine the combustion chamber fuel supply requirements; Step S2: Determine the working requirements of the arc-shaped support plate 22 according to the fuel supply requirements. The working requirements of the arc-shaped support plate 22 include structural adjustment requirements and supply control requirements. Step S3: Determine the infiltration height h of the combustion chamber wall according to the structural adjustment requirements, and convert it into the rotation angle of the support plate corresponding to the current required infiltration height h through the support plate motion model. The rotation of the arc support plate 22 is completed by driving the motor 31 to rotate. The oil circuit valve is controlled according to the supply control requirements to complete the injection action.
[0034] In some embodiments, the process of constructing the support plate motion model in step S3 is as follows: Based on the rotation angle β of the support plate, the length L of the support plate, the distance L1 between the center of the rotating shaft 21 and the inner wall of the combustion chamber, the radius r of the inner wall of the combustion chamber, and the angle θ between the arc-shaped support plate 22 and the tangent of the concentric circle containing the center of the rotating shaft 21 when it is placed in the groove 11, the intermediate length L2 is calculated; the specific calculation formula is as follows: (1); In formula (1), L2 is the middle length, r is the radius of the inner wall of the combustion chamber, L1 is the distance between the center of the rotating shaft 21 and the inner wall of the combustion chamber, L is the length of the support plate, θ is the angle between the arc-shaped support plate 22 and the tangent of the concentric circle containing the center of the rotating shaft 21 when the arc-shaped support plate 22 is placed in the groove 11, and β is the rotation angle of the support plate. Based on the fact that the sum of the combustion chamber wall penetration height h and the intermediate length L2 is equal to the sum of the distance L1 between the center of the rotation axis 21 and the combustion chamber wall surface and the radius r of the combustion chamber wall, a relationship is established between the support plate rotation angle β and the combustion chamber wall penetration height h. The following formula can be obtained from the geometric relationship: (2); In equation (2), h is the infiltration height of the combustion chamber wall; Combining equations (1) and (2), we can obtain the following formula: (3); After establishing the connection, the rotation angle β is determined based on the current required permeability height h using the model described above, and the adjustment amount Δβ is calculated in conjunction with the current angle β0. The calculation formula is as follows: (4).
[0035] In some embodiments, step S1 involves determining the operating state and operating mode of the engine combustion chamber based on the aircraft's flight status, and further determining the combustion chamber fuel supply requirements, including: The engine thrust F was calculated using the flight Mach number Ma, flight altitude H, and angle of attack α, combined with the propellant mass flow rate. Calculate engine specific impulse I sp The calculation formula is as follows: (5); In equation (5), F is the engine thrust, Mach number Ma is the flight Mach number, H is the flight altitude, α is the flight angle of attack, and f2 is the corresponding functional relationship; (6); In equation (6), I sp For the engine's specific impulse. where g is the mass flow rate and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

The specific formula is as follows: (9); In equation (9), f6 represents h and ER and η. mix,demand The corresponding functional relationship.
[0036] In some embodiments, the method further includes: when the arc-shaped support plate 22 is in the closed state, closing the fuel supply valve and opening the gas path valve to inject nitrogen for cooling; and calculating the required nitrogen injection flow rate ratio based on the engine flow direction distance x from the fuel injection point, the cooling requirement ΔT, the flight Mach number Ma, the flight altitude H, and the flight angle of attack α. Required nitrogen injection flow rate ratio The calculation formula is as follows: (10); In equation (10), x is the distance from the fuel injection point to the engine flow direction, ΔT is the cooling requirement, and f7 is... The functional relationships between x, ΔT, Ma, H, and α.
[0037] In some embodiments, in step S3, the rotation of the arc-shaped support plate 22 is completed by rotating the drive motor 31. Specifically, this includes: the drive motor 31 rotates and is controlled in a closed loop using PID control, the principle of which is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, by measuring the actual rotation angle of the arc-shaped support plate 22 and comparing it with the target value, the input electrical signal is continuously adjusted so that the support plate accurately reaches the target position.
[0038] The adjustable fuel injection support plate structure and control method for a circular cross-section flow channel ramjet engine proposed in this invention have the following advantages: (1) The present invention has an array-type layout feature, which can be flexibly designed according to the configuration features of the engine combustion chamber to meet the requirements of fuel blending and spatial distribution, and can be driven and controlled by the same fuel supply system; (2) The present invention has a wide adaptability adjustable working mode. The arc-shaped support plate 22 can be adjusted according to the flow velocity, temperature and fuel injection requirements in the combustion chamber of the engine. When injection is not required, all arc-shaped support plates 22 can be completely retracted, reducing the obstruction loss of high-speed airflow on the wall and structural ablation. (3) The present invention optimizes the overall design of the adjustable support plate structure. The rotating shaft 21 can also serve as an oil pipeline. The groove 11 can play a role in stabilizing the flame and enhancing combustion while accommodating the arc-shaped support plate 22. The overall structure is compact and the arc-shaped support plate 22 has high adjustment response efficiency. (4) The arc-shaped support plate 22 in this invention is designed with specific considerations for flow resistance and thermal protection. Based on the adjustability of the arc-shaped support plate 22, the arc-shaped support plate 22 is designed with a large sweep angle and a sharp leading edge to reduce airflow resistance. The degree of curvature of the arc-shaped support plate 22 is matched with the local curvature of the circular cross-section combustion chamber, so that when the arc-shaped support plate 22 is retracted, it can be flush with the combustion chamber wall, reducing airflow resistance and facilitating overall thermal protection. (5) The arc-shaped support plate 22 structure in this invention has a large-scale swirling mixing aerodynamic effect. Combined with the windward inclined surface design and surface staggered structure design on both sides of the support plate, it can fully realize macroscopic large-scale and local microscopic small-scale mixing enhancement, which is conducive to achieving efficient fuel mixing over short distances.
