Thermal calculation of hydrogen fuel gasifier heat exchanger for airspace aircraft engine

Abstract

In article is justified the possibility of alternative to aircraft kerosene cryogenic fuel usingfor airspace aircraft engines, in particular hydrogen. The necessity of cooling the air in front of theengine compressor at high flight speeds of this aircraft is proved. The necessity liquid hydrogengasification before feeding into the engine combustion chamber is substantiated. The design ofgasifier heat exchanger of liquid hydrogen, in which due to the heat of hydrogen vaporization, theair entering the compressor is cooled, is suggested. The methodology of gasifier heat exchangerthermal calculation is devise.
