When the test piece is actually used, when one or more of the energy-absorbing foam layer, the toughened fiber fabric layer and the passivated ceramic layer of the test piece are thickened, the thicknesses of the energy-absorbing foam layer, the toughened fiber fabric layer and the passivated ceramic layer are gradually increased by about 10%.
In the fifth step, if the aircraft fuel tank test piece can be self-sealed within a set time after being punctured or the fuel tank wall surface layer is cracked, the aircraft fuel tank is processed and manufactured according to the three corrected values of the thicknesses of the structures of the aircraft fuel tank test piece layer and the initial value of the expansion gap;
if the aircraft fuel tank test piece can not carry out the self sealss in the settlement time after being punctured or the oil tank wall surface course takes place to break, the material on leak protection rubber layer, increase leak protection rubber layer in the adjustment aircraft fuel tank test piece thickness reduce behind the initial value of inflation clearance, make aircraft fuel tank test piece again and carry out the shock test with higher speed, can carry out the self sealss in the settlement time until aircraft fuel tank test piece is punctured or the oil tank wall surface course takes place to break after, according to this moment aircraft fuel tank test piece correspond each layer structure thickness with inflation clearance processing preparation aircraft fuel tank.
During the in-service use, after aircraft fuel tank test piece was punctured, the fuel in the aircraft fuel tank test piece spills to the leak protection rubber layer on, and then makes the leak protection rubber layer take place the inflation and can carry out the self sealss to the perforation department that aircraft fuel tank test piece punctured, and then avoids the fuel further to take place to leak.
It should be noted that the adjustment of the material of the leak-proof rubber layer in the fuel tank test piece of the aircraft means that the amount of the high oil-absorbent resin component in the leak-proof rubber layer is increased and the initial value of the expansion gap is reduced by not more than 0.5mm each time.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, and all simple modifications, changes and equivalent structural changes made to the above embodiment according to the technical spirit of the present invention still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
