Description

Waste heat recovery system of oxygen consumption type inerting fuel tank based on thermoelectric generation technology
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of fire prevention and explosion prevention, in particular to an oxygen consumption type inerting fuel tank waste heat recovery system based on a thermoelectric generation technology.
Background
Aircraft safety issues have been of great concern, and fuel system combustion and explosion are one of the main causes of aircraft failure. There are data showing that the U.S. air force lost thousands of aircraft in Vietnam war due to ground activity attacks. Of these losses, the loss proportion due to a misfire is as high as 50%. The cabin safety research technical group (cabin safety research technical group, GSRTG) showed that a total of 370 accidents are related to tank combustion explosions for 3726 civilian aircraft in the world from 1966 to 2009. It follows that effective measures must be taken to prevent the explosion of the aircraft fuel tanks.
The upper space of the fuel tank of the aircraft is filled with combustible oil-gas mixture, the inflammable and explosive characteristics of the fuel tank seriously threaten the safety of the aircraft, and effective measures must be taken to reduce the probability of burning and explosion and reduce the hazard degree of the fuel tank and the explosive mixture. In the oil tank protection system, the reduction of the oxygen concentration in the gas phase space at the upper part of the oil tank can prevent the oil tank from igniting and exploding, and ensure the safety of passengers and aircrafts. The reduction of the oxygen concentration of the fuel tank can be achieved by inerting the fuel tank with an inert gas such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide to reduce the oxygen content below the flammability limit. At present, an On-board nitrogen inerting technology (On-Board Inert Gas Generator System, OBIGGS) for preparing nitrogen-rich gas by using a hollow fiber membrane is the most economical and practical aircraft fuel tank explosion suppression technology. However, the OBIGGS technology still has many problems, such as low efficiency of separation membranes, large compensation loss of aircraft, high pressure required by inlets of the separation membranes, incapacitation of using the separation membranes in many models (such as helicopters), gradual blockage of fine membrane wires and permeation apertures, serious attenuation of membrane performance caused by ozone in air sources, and leakage of fuel steam to pollute the environment when nitrogen-rich gas fills the oil tank.
In recent years, some companies and research institutions at home and abroad are also performing a method for reducing the combustible risk of the fuel tank by consuming oxygen and combustible vapor in the gas phase space of the fuel tank by adopting a catalytic combustion method, which is called as "Green inerting technology" (Green On-Board Inert Gas Generation System, GOBIGGS). This novel inerting technique has several important advantages: basically no preheating is needed, the starting speed is high, the oxygen is consumed in the reactor, the inerting efficiency is high, and the time is short; the fuel steam is not discharged outwards, and the environment is protected. However, the reaction temperature in the catalytic combustion process is higher, the mixed gas after the reaction still contains more heat, and the coolant is generally discharged after absorbing part of the heat, so that the energy is not fully utilized.
