Simulation research on the performance of ejecting inflation system of emergency evacuation slide

In this article, the CFD method is used to analyse the performance of the ejecting inflation system of the emergency evacuation slide. The simulation model is established according to the operating principle of the ejecting inflation system. Quantitative analysis of the applicability and accuracy of simulation models in the performance simulation of the ejecting inflation system is carried out, and the effects of different ejection pressures and ejection working fluid components on the system performance are simulated. The research results show that the Realizable k-e model has the smallest simulation deviation, and the ejection flow rate and ejection ratio are within 5% of the experimental value, which meets the requirements of engineering development; increasing ejection pressure is beneficial to increase the ejection flow rate and speed up the inflation of the slide, but the ejection ratio will decrease when the ejection pressure pass 3.75MPa, which is not conducive to reducing the weight of the system; increasing the N2 content in the ejection gas source is beneficial to increase the ejection ratio and reduce the weight of the system while ensuring the inflation performance. The research results of this article can provide a theoretical basis for the determination of the design index of the ejecting inflation system of the emergency evacuation slide.
