Measurement of Tank Cooling Airflow Based on Array Sensors

Researching on the cooling airflow characters of tank will be helpful for optimizing the design of cooling system, and will be of great importance to improve the performance of armoured vehicles. According to the test requirements of tank under the actual working conditions, we studied and designed the proposed cooling airflow measurement system. The most important thing was that we finished the assembly of array sensors without any damage to tank. In addition, according to national standard we set the quantity and locations of the sensors, which was on the premise of avoiding the influence to airway. In this paper, there was description of cooling airflow signal processing; and there was analysis of air pressure distribution which was presented simultaneously by three-dimensional surface graph and plane graph at the exhaust port of tank engine compartment according to fitting algorithm.
