Adaptability design and study of pneumatic cabin pressure regulator for high-altitude airports

Abstract

In response to the problem of excessive cabin pressure rate of change when using typical pneumatic cabin pressure regulators for fighter jets under high-altitude airport conditions, this paper proposes a solution to add an exhaust bypass controlled by a high-speed solenoid valve to the outflow valve control chamber. The working principle of this solution is analyzed, a mathematical model of the cabin pressure regulation system is established, and a control law for cabin pressure increase and decrease rate is designed. The dynamic characteristics of the cabin pressure regulation system under high altitude airport conditions are calculated on the MATLAB/Simulink software platform, and ground simulation tests are conducted. The results show that through a reasonable design of the cabin pressure increase and decrease rate control law, the high-speed solenoid valve can effectively control the cabin pressure increase rate during the pressurized flight process and the cabin pressure decrease rate during the landing stage of the high-altitude airport
