With the development of aerodynamic thermodynamics, hydrodynamics, heat and mass transfer science and other subjects and aerospace technology, the propellant storage tank modeling has more and more influencing factors. A learner performs numerical study on the pressure of the liquid hydrogen storage tank, the quality of propellant and pressurized gas, the fluid temperature and the thermal stratification change under shaking excitation by adopting a numerical simulation method; aiming at the problem that the temperature and the pressure of the air pillow are obviously reduced due to the increase of the evaporation amount of the propellant caused by shaking waves, a new method for predicting the distribution of liquid drops generated by a propellant storage tank in the maneuvering process by using a numerical tool is proposed by a learner, and the evaporation of the liquid drops and the change of the temperature and the pressure of the storage tank caused by the evaporation of the liquid drops are calculated by using an analytical model. The heat and mass transfer of the gas-liquid interface and the thermal stratification of the fluid are always research hot spots for modeling the propellant storage tank, a learner mainly researches the heat and mass transfer of the gas-liquid interface of the storage tank, establishes a mathematical model of the low-temperature propellant storage tank comprising a heat and mass transfer model of the gas-liquid interface, and verifies the effectiveness of the model by comparing the model with the settlement result of an engineering example and measured data; the method comprises the steps that a learner develops a one-dimensional flow field model of a propellant storage tank, establishes a simulation model of helium pressurization and autogenous pressurization, and mainly researches thermal stratification of a liquid hydrogen storage tank and a liquid oxygen storage tank, and simulation results show that the thermal stratification of a gas part of the storage tank is obvious, and the thermal stratification of a liquid part is not obvious; the problem of large evaporation loss of low-temperature propellant under microgravity environment is considered by a learner, the evaporation of liquid and the influence of the evaporation on vapor pressure under the microgravity condition are studied by adopting a numerical method, and simulation results show that a tiny vapor zone generated in the evaporation process can influence the pressure rise of a storage tank; the learner carries out numerical simulation on the convection flow phenomenon and the thermal stratification phenomenon of the liquid in the low-temperature storage tank by adopting a gas-liquid mixing model, and the result shows that the thermal stratification degree along the axial direction of the storage tank becomes weak along with the extension of the evaporation time of the liquid, and the thermal stratification degree of a liquid area becomes larger along with the time; the liquid oxygen storage tank CFD model which considers the phase change of the gas-liquid interface and the external forced convection heat exchange is established by a learner to study the pressurizing performance and the temperature distribution of the low-temperature propellant storage tank in the ground parking and ground pre-pressurizing stage, and the numerical simulation result shows that the thermal stratification is thickened along with the increase of time under the influence of the heat transfer of the gas pillow and the heat leakage of the wall of the storage tank. The scholars establish a CFD model of the liquid hydrogen storage tank, wherein a phase change model is established based on the Hertz-Knudsen equation, and mass transfer time relaxation factors are determined according to experimental data of NASA, and simulation results show that temperature stratification exists on the surface area of the propellant and the air pillow along the axial direction, the phase change mainly occurs near a gas-liquid interface, and mass transfer expressed in a condensation or vaporization mode is mainly determined by heat convection and molecular concentration near the gas-liquid interface.
However, these models mostly put the focus on temperature stratification and phase change in the tank (i.e., complicated heat and mass transfer process in the tank), and rarely consider the case that the gas composition in the gas pillow (i.e., the gas in the tank) changes with the pressurizing process, and usually consider the gas in the gas pillow as a single gas and rarely consider it as a mixed gas. Therefore, when the components of the air pillow gas are changed along with the pressurizing process, some deviation exists more or less when the simulation study is carried out by using the propellant storage tank models, and the pressurizing performance of the propellant storage tank is difficult to accurately predict.
Therefore, a method for predicting the supercharging performance of a low-temperature propellant tank in consideration of the change of the gas composition is to be proposed.
