Background
In traditional aerospace vehicles, most information transmission is guaranteed by a cable measurement and control system, but along with the continuous improvement of the performance of the aircraft, the control requirements are rich, and the number of the existing sensors cannot meet the measurement requirements under complex control. Taking an aircraft core component, namely an aircraft engine, as an example, an automatic measurement and control system of the aircraft engine must have two characteristics, namely, the first, the automatic measurement and control system of the aircraft engine needs to have stronger logical judgment capability and operation processing capability; secondly, aviation measurement and control have higher requirements on the test speed and the test accuracy. To meet the speed and accuracy of the test, a sufficient number of site sensors must be populated. However, too many measurement sensors inevitably lead to an increase in the number of cables inside the aircraft, which inevitably entails two problems for the aircraft, on the one hand, an increase in the own weight of the aircraft and a reduction in payload. On the other hand, in a limited space, under the condition of ensuring safety and stability, the number of wiring is limited, the limited number of measurement channels cannot provide a basis for high-performance control of the engine, and a bottleneck is caused to the improvement of the control performance of the engine in the future.
How to reduce the use of cables to the maximum extent while ensuring and even increasing the number of original detection nodes becomes a key problem for improving the performance of the aircraft.

A testing method for a wireless self-powered temperature measurement system of an aircraft engine comprises the following steps:
step 1: the heating plate and the water cooling plate are opened to work, and the temperature difference of 150-200 ℃ is formed between the upper surface and the lower surface of the temperature difference power generation plate;

and 4, step 4: and (4) wirelessly connecting the zigbee terminal working node in the step (3) with a zigbee coordinator node, and displaying a serial port receiving interface through an upper computer.
In the specific working process of the aero-engine, as the combustion chamber of the aero-engine can emit a large amount of heat during working, the core temperature inside the combustion chamber can reach 1300 ℃, and the temperature difference between the combustion chamber and the outer duct is large. Therefore, a large amount of heat which is difficult to utilize is generated on the wall surface of the engine, and the heat does not have a great effect on power increase of the engine, influences are brought to normal operation of the engine, and problems are brought to cooling of the engine. Therefore, the construction requirement of the self-powered wireless temperature measurement system is to provide temperature difference for the temperature difference power generation sheet by utilizing waste heat in the working process of the engine. According to relevant data research, when the temperature difference of the high-temperature side and the low-temperature side is about 180 ℃, the voltage of the temperature difference power generation sheet made of 40 mm-40 mm bismuth telluride can reach about 2.5V, so that the temperature difference power generation sensor utilizes the actual condition of high temperature of the wall surface to supply energy to the sensor.
The heating plate and the water cooling plate are used for replacing a high-temperature heat source and a low-temperature cooling source.
In order to ensure the normal operation of the engine, a storage battery module is prepared in a node of the system, and a specific curve of the capacity of the storage battery is given according to the specific power consumption of a zigbee acquisition module, as shown in fig. 6.
And (3) starting a zigbee terminal module to place the temperature measuring thermocouple stack on a temperature plane to be measured to ensure that ten temperature measuring nodes are in full contact with the plane to be measured, wherein the temperature difference of more than 150 ℃ exists between the two sides of the temperature difference generating piece or certain electric quantity exists in the storage battery.
And when the zigbee module work indicator lamp is turned on, the upper computer serial port receiving interface is turned on, and the coordinator module is connected through Usb, so that the specific voltage value converted by the temperature to be measured can be read on the serial port interface.
Fig. 8 and 9 demonstrate that the design of the entire thermoelectric power supply system meets the power supply requirements of the wireless measurement sensor.
By measuring and calculating the highest current of the zigbee terminal during working, the maximum current of the zigbee can be obtained from the peak change of the zigbee when the zigbee terminal sends a packet, the current is about 36mA, the peak maximum power is 0.1188w, and the circuit management module as a conversion circuit inevitably introduces certain loss during voltage conversion. When the external circuit management module is switched, in order to indicate the power supply to work, a circuit indicator lamp also needs to be introduced, extra power consumption is added to the whole system, here, in order to increase allowance to ensure the system to work, the efficiency factor of normal power supply is about 0.8, then the large power consumption needed by the zigbee side is 0.1485W, in combination with the actual starting process of the engine, the self-powered wireless measurement sensor should run before the engine works, considering that the starting time of the civil engine is 2-3min, the military engine is generally faster, here, in order to widen the margin, the preposed working time (namely the time when the power generating sheet does not supply power) is 10min, in combination with the actual wall temperature requirement of the aircraft engine, the minimum working time of the engine is 10min, the engine is stopped, and the chargeable cooling time when the wall surface is higher than 200 ℃ is 20min, the output power W of the power generating sheet should meet:
(W-0.1485)×10+20W>10×0.1485 (1)
it can be understood that W should be greater than 0.099W, and specific choices of the thermoelectric power generation sheet are given below the maximum output power of the power generation sheet.
The thermoelectric power generation sheet potential is selected to select a proper power generation sheet material and the area of the power generation sheet, and important parameters for evaluating the thermoelectric performance of the power generation sheet, one is a Seebeck coefficient alpha for measuring voltage output, the unit of the Seebeck coefficient alpha is v/K, the size of the thermoelectric effect of the thermoelectric material is represented, and according to the Seebeck effect, the output voltage value of the thermoelectric material meets the following formula:
because the maximum temperature of the thermoelectric generation piece is 220 ℃, the delta T is 150 in consideration of the temperature limit of the power generation piece and the stable temperature difference which can be actually provided. According to the rule that the output power changes along with the load resistance, along with the increase of the load resistance, when the load resistance is equal to the internal resistance, the maximum output is taken, so that the resistance values of the load resistance and the internal resistance are equal, and an inequality can be obtained:
according to the actual resistance value of the power generating sheet, r is 5, the total alpha coefficient of the power generating sheet is larger than 0.0094, and after the total Seebeck coefficient of the power generating sheet is determined, the optimal value Z influencing the actual efficiency of the power generating sheet is also considered.
Taking the actual working efficiency of the thermoelectric generation piece as eta, the eta can be obtained:
p is the actual output power of the power generation sheet, the formula is mentioned above, Q always comprises the heat conduction quantity of the thermoelectric power generation sheet from the hot end to the cold end, the heat quantity generated by the Peltier effect of the thermoelectric power generation sheet at the hot end and the difference of the Joule heat generated by the current, and the difference can be obtained by calculation
Wherein T isaFor the temperature of the hot end of the power generating sheet, TbThe total heat conductivity coefficient of the lambda semiconductor device is the cold end temperature of the power generation sheet, m is the ratio of the load resistance to the internal resistance, and r is the internal resistance of the power generation sheet. To better illustrate the factors that affect efficiency, the thermoelectric figure of merit Z, defined herein, is:
Z=α2/λr (6)
since the thermoelectric efficiency of the power generation sheet increases with the increase in the figure of merit Z by substituting the figure of merit Z with α as the seebeck coefficient, λ as the thermal conductivity, and r as the internal resistance of the power generation sheet, the power generation sheet having a large Z value should be selected together with the large seebeck coefficient power generation sheet in order to improve the thermoelectric efficiency of the power generation sheet. In addition, in consideration of the area requirement in integration, the power generating sheet with the area of 30 × 30mm or less is required as much as possible.
Through the conditions, a thermoelectric power generation piece of the model SP1848 series is selected, the area of the thermoelectric power generation piece is 20 multiplied by 20mm and 30 multiplied by 30mm, and the open circuit voltage and the output power of the power generation piece when the load resistance is 10 ohms under different temperature differences are tested. As shown in fig. 2.
The power generation piece body testing method comprises the steps of selecting an electric heating temperature controller to control the temperature of a heating plate, controlling the cold end temperature of the thermoelectric power generation piece by a water cooling piece, measuring open-circuit voltage by a voltmeter, and in the experimental process, through a water cooling device, the low-temperature side temperature is always about 20 ℃, and the upper graph is a specific experimental device graph during power generation piece testing.
From the experimental data in fig. 10-11, it can be known that when the output voltage increases with the increasing temperature, and the temperature is 190 ℃ at the high temperature side, that is, the temperature difference is 170 ℃, the output voltage of the power generation sheet is 2.6V, and according to the experimental data curve, the seebeck coefficient of the power generation sheet with 20 × 20mm is 0.0153, which meets the specific requirements of the power generation sheet. And calculating the output voltage and the output current at different temperatures to obtain the internal resistance of the capacitor to be about 5 omega.
