Abstract
As an efficient cooling system, the vapor cycle refrigeration system has the advantages of high performance coefficient, small compensation loss, no engine bleed and so on. In recent years, the vapor cycle refrigeration system has made great progress in application, and the disadvantages such as poor system reliability and refrigerant leakage have been solved. Therefore, the application of the vapor cycle refrigeration system in modern helicopters is gradually increasing.
Based on the multi-objective optimization genetic algorithm, the steady-state optimization of the refrigeration system configuration is carried out with the goal of low energy consumption and lightweight structure, and the refrigeration system configuration in multi complex environment is improved. The recommended system configuration is given and its applicability is verified. This study has important reference value for the design of the liquid cooled vapor cycle refrigeration system of helicopter.
