Problems solved by technology

The former carries storage tanks filled with liquid nitrogen, gas nitrogen, and halon 1301 to fill the fuel tank with inert gas during flight to convert the oxygen in the fuel tank and reduce the oxygen concentration, but this method increases the aircraft load and life cycle Short, poor economy, it is difficult to achieve full inertization
Since the late 1970s, airborne inerting technology, which uses airborne equipment to extract inert gas, has developed rapidly. The airborne nitrogen inerting technology that uses hollow fiber membranes to produce nitrogen-enriched gas is currently the most widely used and most mature However, it also has disadvantages such as low separation membrane efficiency, high bleed air pressure, easy clogging of the separation membrane, and pollution of the environment by the exhaust of the fuel tank.

Abstract

The invention discloses an experiment table based on controllable catalytic combustion for reducing fuel tank combustibility, and belongs to the technical field of fire and explosion protection. The experiment table comprises an inert gas inerting subsystem, a flight environment simulation subsystem, a fuel oil injecting and pumping subsystem, a fuel oil heating and cooling subsystem, a fuel oil pre-washing subsystem and a monitoring and controlling subsystem. By employing the experiment table, simulation experiments on the inerting performance in different flight environments and under different oil-carrying rates can be carried out, automatic acquisition, output and backup of each parameter are achieved, and each assembly is automatically controlled and adjusted through an upper industrial control computer; the experiment table is simple to construct, high in integration degree and convenient and safe to operate, and the experiment result can provide a design basis for the technological development of controllable catalytic combustion for reducing fuel tank combustibility.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fire prevention and explosion protection, and specifically refers to a test bench for reducing the flammability of a fuel tank based on controllable catalytic combustion. Background technique [0002] During the Vietnam War, the U.S. Air Force lost thousands of aircraft due to ground fire attacks, among which the proportion of aircraft crashes and fatalities was as high as 50% due to the fire and explosion of aircraft fuel tanks. The combustible vapor of the fuel tank in the center wing was ignited and caused an explosion, which killed the whole crew. Therefore, the safety of the aircraft fuel tank is related to the overall safety of the aircraft. How to strengthen the fire and explosion-proof performance of the aircraft fuel tank and reduce the secondary loss of personnel and equipment caused by the fuel tank explosion, It has attracted great attention from researchers and management departments. [000...
