Product Details
The 20°C Military Aviation PCM Can Store Energy, Absorb Heat, And
Prevent Equipment From Overheating
Appearance and physical characteristics:
- It usually comes in a more regular shape, which may be plate, block
or granular, etc., in order to adapt to different installation and
use needs. Its appearance color is generally dark or non-reflective
color in line with military standards, which can reduce the light
reflection in aviation equipment on the one hand, and also has a
certain degree of concealment on the other hand.
- In terms of physical properties, it has a certain hardness and
toughness. Due to the mechanical effects such as vibration and
impact during aviation flight, the material needs to have
sufficient mechanical strength to ensure that it does not break or
deform in various harsh environments.
- Its density has been carefully designed and optimized to meet the
requirements of aviation equipment for lightweight, so as to reduce
the load of the aircraft, improve flight performance and fuel
efficiency, and ensure that it has good thermophysical properties.
- At the same time, it has good corrosion resistance and oxidation
resistance, and can maintain stable performance and long-term
reliable use in aviation environments, including exposure to
various chemicals and different humidity and air pressure
conditions.
Thermal Properties:
1. Phase change characteristics
- The phase change temperature is precisely set at 20°C. When the
ambient temperature is below 20°C, it is in a relatively stable
phase, which may be a solid state or a specific crystal structure,
etc. When the temperature rises to 20°C, the material begins to
undergo a phase change, absorbing a lot of heat and transitioning
from one phase to another, such as from a solid to a liquid state
(or a change in crystal structure).
- This phase change process is reversible, and when the temperature
drops, it releases the stored heat again and returns to its
original phase. This allows it to efficiently store and release
heat around 20°C, which plays a key role in the temperature
regulation of military aviation equipment.
- The latent heat of phase change is large, which means that it is
able to absorb or release large amounts of energy within a
relatively small range of temperature changes. In the field of
military aviation, some key equipment such as avionics, optical
instruments, etc., are very sensitive to temperature changes.
- When the temperature around the device is close to 20°C, the PCM
material can quickly absorb heat, prevent the device from
overheating, and maintain the operation of the device in the
appropriate temperature range, ensuring stable performance and
accuracy. When the temperature is low, it can release heat,
avoiding problems such as performance degradation and difficulty in
starting the equipment due to low temperatures.
2. Thermal conductivity
- Its thermal conductivity is in the right range. If the thermal
conductivity is too high, it may lead to too fast heat transfer,
and the phase change material cannot give full play to its
advantages in storing heat, so that the temperature of the
equipment changes too drastically.
- If the thermal conductivity is too low, it will affect its
efficiency of absorbing and releasing heat, and the temperature of
the equipment cannot be adjusted in time and effectively. By
precisely controlling the thermal conductivity, the material is
able to absorb and release heat at the right time, working in
tandem with other components of aviation equipment for good thermal
management.
Application Advantages:
1. Precise temperature control
- The use of this 20°C PCM material in military aviation equipment
enables precise and efficient regulation of the temperature of the
equipment. For example, in the cockpit of an aircraft, various
instruments and electronics need to operate at the right
temperature to ensure that pilots can accurately access information
and operate equipment.
- The 20°C PCM material can absorb or release heat through the phase
change process when the temperature is close to 20°C, so that the
temperature in the cockpit is always kept within a relatively
stable range, improving the reliability of the equipment and the
operating comfort of the pilot. It can effectively reduce equipment
failures and misoperation caused by temperature fluctuations, which
is essential for ensuring flight safety and mission execution.
2. Adapt to complex flight conditions
- Military aircraft experience a variety of complex environments and
changes in operating conditions during flight. It is able to adapt
to different altitudes, speeds, outside air temperatures, and other
conditions. When the aircraft is flying in a high-altitude and
low-temperature environment, the PCM material can release the
stored heat and prevent the temperature of the equipment from
getting too low.
- And when the aircraft is flying at low altitude and high speed or
the temperature of the equipment itself rises, it can absorb the
heat and maintain the temperature of the equipment at about 20°C.
This adaptive thermal management capability ensures that military
aviation equipment can operate normally in a variety of complex
flight conditions, improving the aircraft's environmental
adaptability and mission execution flexibility.
3. Improve equipment performance and life
- With precise temperature control, 20°C PCM materials can
significantly improve the performance and service life of military
aviation equipment. For some high-precision sensors, communication
equipment, etc., stable temperature can ensure its measurement
accuracy and signal transmission quality. At the same time, a
suitable temperature environment can reduce the thermal stress and
thermal fatigue inside the equipment, and reduce the aging rate and
failure rate of the equipment.
- For example, for some key electronic components on an aircraft,
long-term operation at the right temperature can extend their
service life by about 20%-30%, reduce the cost of equipment
maintenance and replacement, and improve the overall reliability
and economy of military aircraft.
Application Scenarios:
1. Thermal management of avionics compartment
- In the electronic equipment compartment of military aircraft, a
large number of electronic equipment and lines are concentrated.
The 20°C PCM material can be installed on the inner wall of the
equipment compartment, partition and other parts, and when the
electronic equipment runs and heats up the cabin temperature close
to 20°C, it begins to absorb heat and prevent the equipment from
overheating.
- At the same time, when the aircraft flies to a low temperature area
or the equipment stops operating and the temperature drops, it can
release heat, maintain the temperature stability in the equipment
compartment, and protect the electronic equipment from temperature
changes. For example, for critical electronic systems such as
aircraft communications equipment and navigation equipment, this
PCM material ensures reliable operation in different flight phases
and environmental conditions.
2. Aircraft cockpit environment adjustment
- The cabin environment of a military aircraft is critical to the
productivity and physical health of pilots. The 20°C PCM material
can be applied to the interior materials of the cockpit, such as
seats, control panels, etc.
- When the temperature in the cockpit is close to 20°C, it is able to
regulate the temperature and provide a comfortable working
environment for the pilot. In hot climates, it can absorb heat and
reduce cabin temperatures; In cold high-altitude environments, it
also releases heat and keeps the cabin warm. In addition, it can
reduce the unevenness of the temperature in the cockpit and improve
the thermal comfort of the pilot, which in turn improves the
pilot's concentration and operational accuracy.
3. Thermal protection of aviation weapon system
- For the various weapon systems carried by military aircraft,
temperature control is critical to the performance and safety of
the weapon. The 20°C PCM material can be used for temperature
regulation of the weapon compartment and thermal protection of the
weapon itself.
- When the temperature of a weapon rises during flight due to air
friction, chemical reactions, etc., the PCM material absorbs heat
to prevent dangerous situations such as explosion or performance
degradation caused by overheating of the weapon.
- During the storage and preparation of weapons for launch, it can
also maintain the weapons within the appropriate temperature range,
ensuring the reliability and combat effectiveness of the weapons.
For example, for weapons such as missiles, bombs, etc., this PCM
material can improve its storage life and combat performance in
different environments.
