At present, deicing agents or resistance heating are mostly used for deicing ships and marine equipment, but the deicing efficiency is low in a resistance heating mode, and the energy consumption is high. In the field of aircraft icing and deicing, the existing deicing technology mainly comprises hot air deicing, electric heating deicing prevention, airbag deicing, antifreeze liquid deicing prevention, mechanical deicing and the like. The electric heating deicing mode is a deicing mode with high flexibility, simple structure and little weight increment, and has two working modes of electric heating deicing and electric heating deicing. The electrothermal deicing mode allows a small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing, melts the small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing by adopting an intermittent heating strategy, and periodically removes the small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing, thereby achieving the purpose of maintaining flight safety with lower electricity consumption energy cost. But the heating deicing efficiency of the electrothermal deicing mode is still low.

However, the prior art adopts a deicing scheme mainly based on electric heating and combined with an active deicing technology, belongs to a low-energy-consumption efficient deicing system, and can be used for deicing with low energy consumption, but is relatively complex in system design, and is difficult to consider both structural weight and maintenance cost.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, based on the examples herein, which are within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims, will be within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
In the description of the present invention, it is to be noted that, unless otherwise indicated, the meaning of "plurality" means two or more; the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," "front," "rear," "head," "tail," and the like are used as an orientation or positional relationship based on that shown in the drawings, merely to facilitate description of the invention and to simplify the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," "third," and the like are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
In the description of the present invention, it should also be noted that, unless explicitly specified and limited otherwise, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" are to be construed broadly, and may be either fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally connected, for example; can be mechanically or electrically connected; can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention can be understood as appropriate by those of ordinary skill in the art.
In the field of aircraft icing and deicing, the existing deicing technology mainly comprises hot air deicing, electric heating deicing prevention, airbag deicing, antifreeze liquid deicing prevention, mechanical deicing and the like. The electric heating deicing mode is a deicing mode with high flexibility, simple structure and little weight increment, and has two working modes of electric heating deicing and electric heating deicing. The electrothermal deicing mode allows a small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing, melts the small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing by adopting an intermittent heating strategy, and periodically removes the small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing, thereby achieving the purpose of maintaining flight safety with lower electricity consumption energy cost. But the heating deicing efficiency of the electrothermal deicing mode is still low.
The inventor finds that in the related technology, the working mode of electrothermal deicing allows a small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing, and the electrothermal deicing system periodically removes the small amount of ice accumulation on the front edge of the wing by adopting an intermittent heating strategy, but because of thermal inertia and the existence of heating time allowance, the heated melting water or incoming water drops cannot freeze in a heating area of the front edge of the wing, but ice nodules are formed after overflowing to the rear of the heating area, so that the aerodynamic performance of the wing is reduced, and the flight safety is affected.
In addition, the conventional electric heating method adopts a large-area conductive material to be connected with a power supply, and heats the electric heating device in a manner of generating joule heat, so that a large amount of ineffective heat convection and heat conduction loss are generated relative to the areas such as external air flow, a protective layer, a skin and the like, the energy utilization rate is low, and the heating deicing efficiency is still low.
In one aspect, the present application provides a surface electrothermal ice detachment structure, as shown in fig. 1-10, particularly configured to:
the lower surface of the surface electrothermal deicing structure is used for connection of the load-bearing object to provide deicing function to relevant parts on the load-bearing object, and the upper surface of the surface electrothermal deicing structure is used for direct contact with the environment to form the ice layer 5 to be removed.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the surface electrothermal deicing structure includes a surface electrode, an insulating layer 2 and a buried electrode laminated and fixed in this order from top to bottom. The surface electrode and the buried electrode are carried on the upper and lower surfaces of the insulating layer 2, respectively, separated by the insulating layer 2. The surface electrothermal deicing structure can be manufactured by adopting the current mature PCB manufacturing process. The surface electrothermal ice detachment structure is generally fabricated as a thin layer structure.
The insulating layer 2 is provided with at least one via 21, such as one, two or more. The via hole 21 penetrates up and down along the thickness direction of the insulating layer 2, and the hole pattern of the via hole 21 is generally circular, but may be polygonal, such as rectangular, triangular, or the like, or elliptical or irregular holes according to actual needs. The shape of the hole of the through-hole 21 determines the general shape in which the liquid entering the through-hole 21 can be condensed, for example, a generally cylindrical icicle 51 can be formed in the circular through-hole 21.
The surface electrode is attached to the upper surface of the insulating layer 2 while the surface electrode is disposed adjacent to the via hole 21 such that at least part of the top end aperture of the via hole 21 is exposed to the surface electrode. Liquid can enter the through-hole 21 from the top end orifice of the through-hole 21 to be coagulated into the icicle 51 as shown in fig. 9 and 10.
The buried electrode is attached to the lower surface of the insulating layer 2, and at the same time, the buried electrode may shield at least a portion of the bottom end opening of the via hole 21 from the buried electrode, or the buried electrode may completely expose the bottom end opening of the via hole 21, as long as the icicles 51 formed in the via hole 21 can be brought into contact with the buried electrode.
The surface electrothermal deicing structure, when used for deicing, requires that the surface electrode and the buried electrode be connected to both ends of a power source, respectively, to apply a voltage across the surface electrode and the buried electrode located at both ends of the via hole 21. As shown in fig. 10, when the surface of the surface electrothermal deicing structure is frozen to form the ice layer 5, the pillars 51 are formed in the via holes 21, and the surface electrodes and the embedded electrodes can be electrically connected through the pillars 51 to heat the pillars 51 by using the pillars 51 as a resistor.
In this embodiment, in the process of forming the ice layer 5 by freezing the surface layer of the surface electrothermal deicing structure, the insulating layer 2 is provided with the via hole 21, and the surface electrode does not completely cover the top end opening of the via hole 21, so that part of the liquid forming the ice layer 5 can enter into the via hole 21 to be condensed, and the icicle 51 connected to the bottom of the cover layer of the ice layer 5 is formed. In this way, the icicle 51 can be used as a connecting resistor to directly connect the surface electrode and the embedded electrode to form a loop, after the surface electrode and the embedded electrode are connected to the power supply 6, the power supply 6 can apply voltage between the surface electrode and the embedded electrode, and the icicle 51 is used as a resistor to heat the icicle 51 to vaporize. The existence of the through hole 21 enables the ice column 51 in the through hole to be vaporized and expanded along the axial direction after the temperature is raised, the air pressure in the through hole 21 is improved, the covering layer of the ice layer 5 is extruded and impacted, the adhesion force between the ice layer 5 and the surface layer of the surface electrothermal deicing structure is reduced, the ice layer 5 is caused to break at the position of the ice column 51 due to structural stress, and further the ice is peeled off from the surface layer of the surface electrothermal deicing structure, so that deicing is realized.
Therefore, the surface electrothermal deicing structure in the embodiment fully utilizes the advantages of the electrothermal deicing system, such as simple structure and ice control, and utilizes steam pressure to realize impact on the ice layer 5, thereby realizing the purposes of reducing the adhesion force at the bottom of the ice layer 5 and promoting cracking and peeling of the ice layer. The surface electrothermal deicing structure can be deiced by mechanical stress only by means of a simple laminar electrothermal structure similar to the structure of the traditional electrothermal deicing system, is simpler in structure without depending on an additional force generator and an ultrasonic deicing device, has better maintainability, and has higher deicing efficiency and lower energy consumption in function.
According to some alternative embodiments, the insulating layer 2 may be a rigid or flexible layer made of an insulating material such as paper base, glass fiber base, mylar, polyimide, and aluminum-based or copper-based bonding resin, which are commonly used in PCB boards. When the insulating layer 2 is a flexible layer, the surface electrode and the embedded electrode are arranged as flexible members, so that the surface electrothermal deicing structure can be conveniently distributed on any shape in a large range, such as complex curved surfaces of wings, fan blades and the like.
According to some alternative embodiments, the inner walls of the via holes 21 are formed with a thin conductive layer 4 having high resistance characteristics by an electroplating process, and as shown in fig. 5, the conductive layer 4 is exemplarily disposed in some of the via holes 21. Wherein the conductive layer 4 is electrically connected with the surface electrode and the buried electrode.
Aiming at the weak conductive medium of the ice column 51 formed by the fresh water and the cloud and fog fields, the conductive layer 4 is electrically connected with the surface electrode and the embedded electrode, so that the conductivity between the surface electrode and the embedded electrode can be ensured, the high resistance of the conductive layer 4 is utilized to heat the ice column 51 as a resistor, which is equivalent to heating the ice column 51 as a heating cavity, the heating efficiency of the ice column 51 is improved, and the surface electrothermal deicing structure provided with the conductive layer 4 is suitable for the weak conductive medium which is frozen into the ice column 51 in the fresh water and cloud and fog fields environment, so that the surface electrothermal deicing structure used in the environment has good deicing capability.
The conductive layer 4 is typically 50Ω or more.
If the surface electrothermal deicing structure aims at weak conductive media such as icicles 51 formed by sea water and sea ice, the icicles 51 have better conductivity than fresh water and cloud field icing, and the inner wall of the through hole 21 of the insulating layer 2 can be free from being plated with the conductive layer 4.
According to some alternative embodiments, the upper surface of the surface electrode is attached with an insulating coating, and on the sub-basis, a hydrophobic layer or an icephobic layer can be attached on the surface of the insulating coating, so as to enhance the hydrophobicity of the surface electrode to reduce icing, or enhance the icephobic capability of the surface to make the ice layer 5 easily peel off. When the surface electrodes are arranged in a linear array of a plurality of upper plates 1 as shown in fig. 1, an insulating coating covers the upper surface of each upper plate 1.
According to some alternative embodiments, as shown in fig. 1, a plurality of via holes 21 are provided on the insulating layer 2, and all the via holes 21 form a two-dimensional array on the insulating layer 2.
According to some alternative embodiments, all the via holes 21 are formed on the insulating layer 2 in a two-dimensional array, and the surface electrode is regularly arranged on the upper surface of the insulating layer 2, specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the surface electrode includes a plurality of strip-shaped upper electrode plates 1, and each upper electrode plate 1 is tightly fixed on the upper surface of the insulating layer 2 by its lower surface. The surface electrode may be formed by all the upper electrode plates 1 in various structures, for example, as shown in fig. 1, all the upper electrode plates 1 are formed in a linear array on the upper surface of the insulating layer 2 along the width direction of the upper electrode plates 1, for example, all the upper electrode plates 1 are formed in a grid-like electrode in a crisscrossed manner on the upper surface of the insulating layer 2, and the thickness at the crossing node of each upper electrode plate 1 is set to be consistent with the thickness of a single upper electrode plate 1, so that the upper surface of the surface electrode is substantially planar.
In the surface electrode, each upper electrode plate 1 is disposed corresponding to at least one via hole 21, for example, as shown in fig. 1, one upper electrode plate 1 corresponds to a row of nine via holes 21 on the insulating layer 2.
As shown in fig. 3 and 10, the upper plate 1 in a bar shape is offset from the top aperture of the via hole 21 so as to expose the top aperture portion of the via hole 21. Of course, the strip-shaped upper electrode plate 1 may have one side edge tangent to the top end opening edge of the via hole 21, so as to completely expose the top end opening of the via hole 21. Of course, the strip-shaped upper polar plate 1 can also be arranged along a row of through holes 21, and the top end openings of the through holes 21 are completely or partially exposed by forming through holes with a certain aperture on the upper polar plate 1.
In this embodiment, the upper electrode plate 1 is formed into a linear array or grid electrode, so that a smaller area on the insulating layer 2 can be covered on the premise of having corresponding functions, and dead weight and structural cost are reduced.
According to alternative embodiments, all vias 21 are formed in a two-dimensional array on the insulating layer 2, and the buried electrode may be arranged regularly on the lower surface of the insulating layer 2, like the surface electrode formed by a plurality of upper electrode plates 1, in which case the buried electrode comprises a plurality of strip-shaped lower electrode plates 3, each of which lower electrode plates 3 is fixed with its upper surface in close contact to the lower surface of the insulating layer 2, as shown in fig. 2 and 6. The surface electrode may be formed in various structures by all the upper electrode plates 1, for example, as shown in fig. 2, all the lower electrode plates 3 are formed in a linear array on the lower surface of the insulating layer 2 along the width direction of the lower electrode plates 3, and for example, all the lower electrode plates 3 are formed in a grid-like electrode in a crisscrossed manner on the lower surface of the insulating layer 2, and the thickness at the crossing node of each lower electrode plate 3 is set to be consistent with the thickness of a single lower electrode plate 3 so that the lower surface of the embedded electrode is substantially planar for better connection to the surface of the object.
In the buried electrode, each lower plate 3 is disposed corresponding to at least one via 21, such as shown in fig. 2, 3 and 6, and one lower plate 3 corresponds to a row of nine vias 21 on the insulating layer 2.
As shown in fig. 2, 3 and 6, the strip-shaped lower plate 3 completely shields the bottom end opening of the via hole 21. Of course, the strip-shaped lower electrode plate 3 may be offset from the bottom hole of the via hole 21, so as to expose the bottom hole of the via hole 21, as shown in fig. 3, where the upper electrode plate 1 is offset from the top hole of the via hole 21. Of course, the strip-shaped lower polar plate 3 may also have one side edge tangent to the bottom end orifice edge of the via hole 21, so as to completely expose the via hole 21. Of course, the strip-shaped lower polar plate 3 can also be arranged along a row of through holes 21, and the bottom end openings of the through holes 21 are completely or partially exposed by forming through holes with a certain aperture on the lower polar plate 3.
In this embodiment, the lower electrode plate 3 forms a linear array or grid electrode, which can cover a smaller area on the insulating layer 2 on the premise of having corresponding functions, thereby reducing dead weight and structural cost.
According to alternative embodiments, the buried electrode may also be a plate electrode entirely covering the lower surface of the insulating layer 2, so that the buried electrode completely shields the bottom openings of all vias 21. The lower electrode plate 3 is a whole plate electrode, and when the surface electrothermal deicing structure is arranged on the target object, the embedded electrode can be provided on the target object, such as a skin with conductivity on the wing or the fan blade, so that the arrangement of electrode materials can be saved.
According to some alternative embodiments, the upper surface of the upper polar plate 1 is provided with an air guide groove, and the air guide groove is laterally communicated with the top end orifice of the through hole 21, so as to guide the heated and vaporized part of the icicle 51 to diffuse along the air guide groove far away from the through hole 21.
As shown in fig. 3, an air guide groove is exemplarily provided on the upper surfaces of two of the upper plates 1. The air guide grooves include a lateral groove 11 extending in the width direction of the upper plate 1 and a longitudinal groove 12 extending in the length direction of the upper plate 1.
In fig. 3, a longitudinal groove 12 is formed on the upper surface of one of the upper electrode plates 1, and a transverse groove 11 is formed, wherein the transverse groove 11 intersects with the longitudinal groove 12, so that steam can smoothly diffuse between the transverse groove 11 and the longitudinal groove 12. The number of the horizontal grooves 11 and the number of the via holes 21 are 1:1 or 2:1. When the top end orifice of the upper polar plate 1 and the through hole 21 are arranged in a staggered manner or one side edge of the upper polar plate 1 is tangent to the top end orifice of the through hole 21, the transverse grooves 11 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the through holes 21. When the upper plate 1 is disposed along a row of via holes 21 and the via holes 21 are completely or partially exposed through the via holes with a certain aperture formed in the upper plate 1, the transverse grooves 11 and the via holes 21 may be disposed in one-to-one correspondence, or one transverse groove 11 may be disposed on each of two opposite sides of one via hole 21 in the radial direction.
In fig. 3, only one longitudinal groove 12 extending along the length direction of the upper plate 1 is formed on the upper surface of the other upper plate 1.
Of course, only the transverse grooves 11 may be formed in the upper surface of the upper plate 1.
Preferably, the longitudinal grooves 12 are configured as through grooves.
Preferably, the lateral grooves 11 are provided as through grooves so that the steam formed by vaporization of the icicles 51 can more easily enter the lateral grooves 11 and spread away.
In this embodiment, after the icicle 51 is vaporized, the air guide groove provided along the upper surface of the upper polar plate 1 can expand, thereby generating an area stripping effect on the cover layer of the larger-range ice layer 5, reducing the overall adhesion of the ice layer 5 and improving the deicing effect.
According to some alternative embodiments, the pitch of two adjacent vias 21 is greater than or equal to four times the aperture of the via 21, and it is preferable if the pitch of two adjacent vias 21 is greater than ten times the aperture of the via 21. Preferably, the sum of the cross-sectional areas of all vias 21 is simultaneously less than 10% of the upper surface area of insulating layer 2. So that the area where the steam is generated by the heating icicle 51 occupies only a small part of the whole surface electrothermal deicing structure, and a punctiform electrothermal deicing mode is formed.
In this embodiment, the minimum dimensions of the upper plate 1 and the lower plate 3 should be made as small as possible on the premise that the icicles 51 are heated smoothly to vaporize and remove ice.
