Abstract The thermal environment of the power cabin and high temperature exhaust gas seriously affect the performance and survivability of armored vehicle on the battlefield. In order to improve the hostile thermal environment of the enclosed power cabin and inhibit the infrared characteristics of exhaust gas, this paper puts forward a multistage connected ventilation cooling structure based on the unique structural characteristics of the armored vehicle. The structure utilizes the rotating action of the fans to introduce the cold air into the power cabin, volute and smoke exhaust pipe in turn. The effects of the multistage connected structure on the temperature field and exhaust infrared detection power of armored vehicle were studied by numerical simulation. It was indicated that the multistage connected ventilation cooling structure can effectively improve the thermal environment of the armored vehicle cabin by about 15.18% and reduce the infrared detection power of exhaust gas by about 11.35%. This paper is of great significance for studying the cooling of power cabin and the design of armored vehicle's infrared stealth.

According to the characteristics and demand of the armored vehicle cabin environment evaluation, the cabin environment parameters are processed the method of dimensionless normalized processing, the weight coefficients of each parameters are evaluated by using analytic hierarchy process (AHP), the result vector of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation is analyzed by using weighted average principle, the result is ideal. At the same time, considering the problems of the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation and the particularity of military vehicle evaluation, the ultra limit additional evaluation is proposed.

Sunroof wind throb can generate annoyingly high sound-pressure levels (SPL) inside the vehicle cabin. In this study, several deflector configurations were installed to investigate this flow-acoustic coupled resonance phenomenon in passenger cars. In each condition, comparisons between the experimental results and numerical simulations were performed over a range of wind speeds to validate the capability of the PowerFLOW numerical simulation for wind throb prediction. Experiments were performed at the Suzuki full scale wind tunnel. One microphone in the cabin was set to record the pressure history and SPL. Flow around the sunroof was also measured by PIV. In both experiments and simulations, the following phenomena were observed. In case of strong wind throb, flow separates from the deflector and strong periodic vortices in the shear layer were observed. These vortices break down due to the impingement at the back-end of the sunroof and generate a strong peak noise in the cabin. In case of no wind throb, the periodic vortices were not observed resulting in a very weak peak with low SPL in the cabin. The deflector study shows that wind throb is a highly sensitive phenomenon where even a small geometry variation at the critical region can affect the phenomenon significantly. In this study, the same trend was obtained in the experimental results and simulations. It shows that the numerical simulation can be used for a priori predictions in the early stages of the vehicle design process.

Under the comprehensive consideration of “buoyancy effect” and “throttle effect” during mine fire period, the article used the geographic information system (GIS) technology, simulated the smoke pollution area, ventilation system junction temperature and state of airflow during mine fire period. Finishing a program for dynamic simulation of emergency rescue during mine fire period, which is significant for establishing fire pre-scheme and the decision-making during fire period. At the same time, the dynamic characteristic of ventilation system and selection of escaping route is also considered, which provides foundation for the rescuing the workers underground in time.
