pure aluminum plate refers to the plate composed of more than 99.5 percent aluminum, which has the advantages of light weight, corrosion resistance and good thermal conductivity, and is widely used in the aviation industry. The application of pure aluminum plate in aviation field will focus on the application of pure aluminum plate in aviation field.
1. Application
The application of pure aluminum plate in the aviation field is mainly reflected in the aircraft shell, aircraft structural parts, engine parts, etc.
1. Aircraft Shell
Pure aluminum plates are widely used in aircraft shells, and can be used to make aircraft fuselage, wings, vertical tail and other components. Because the pure aluminum plate has the advantages of light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance, it can reduce the weight of the aircraft and improve the maneuverability of the aircraft. At the same time, pure aluminum plate also has good plasticity and processability, and can make parts of various shapes as needed to enhance the structural strength and rigidity of the aircraft.
2. Aircraft structural parts
The application of pure aluminum plates in aircraft structural parts includes wing ribs, fuselage ribs, rudder surface bones and other components. These parts need to have a certain strength and rigidity, while at the same time need to maintain light, pure aluminum plate is one of the materials to meet these requirements. Pure aluminum plate can be made into various shapes of parts by bending, stretching and other processing processes to adapt to various complex structural requirements.
3. Engine parts
The application of pure aluminum plates in engine parts is mainly reflected in the production of radiators, heat shields, air inlets and other components. Pure aluminum plate has the advantage of good thermal conductivity, which can effectively transfer the heat generated by the engine and improve the working efficiency of the engine. At the same time, the pure aluminum plate also has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, which can maintain long-term stable performance in harsh environments.
2. Advantages and Limitations The application of
pure aluminum plate in the aviation field has the following advantages:
1. Lightweight: Pure aluminum plate is lighter than steel, which can reduce the weight of the aircraft and improve the maneuverability of the aircraft.
2. High strength: Pure aluminum plate has high tensile strength and yield strength, which can ensure the structural strength and rigidity of the aircraft.
3. Corrosion resistance: Pure aluminum plate has good corrosion resistance and can maintain long-term stable performance in harsh environments.
4. Good processability: Pure aluminum plate has good plasticity and processability, and parts of various shapes can be made as needed. However, the application of pure aluminum plates in the aviation field also has some limitations:
1. Insufficient strength: The strength of pure aluminum plates is not as strong as titanium alloys and composite materials, and cannot meet the requirements of some complex structures.
2. Easy to damage: Pure aluminum plates are susceptible to mechanical scratches and corrosion, and require regular maintenance and maintenance.
3. Higher cost: The production cost of pure aluminum plate is higher and the price is more expensive.
