Abstract

In order to study heat transfer process in APU compartment of passenger plane and to perform structure thermal analysis, temperature field of APU compartment has been calculated by numerical computation. The computation model of flow and heat transfer process in APU compartment are setup by commercial CFD software Fluent, Realizable k-ε turbulent model and S2S thermal radiation model are used, and the flow field, temperature and heat flow information are acquired. Radiation heat transfer is the major heat transfer process in APU compartment; APU fireproofing cover and heat insulation hood of exhaust pipe function work as radiation heat shielding screens; and cooling air in the APU fireproofing cover plays an important part in decreasing the temperature of the fireproofing cover; the injection cooling air in the exhaust pipe reduced the wall temperature effectively. The results provide reference to optimization design.
