The power supply system in the field of aerospace and aviation is mainly a system for generating, storing, transforming, regulating and distributing electric energy. We generally divide it into main power supply and secondary power supply. The secondary power supply is a device that converts the electric energy of the main power supply into another form or specification of electric energy to meet the needs of different onboard electrical equipment. The aerospace power supply system provides a safe and reliable energy supply for the equipment of various subsystems of aviation and aerospace vehicles, and is an indispensable and important guarantee system. The development level of aerospace power supply systems plays a decisive role in improving the performance of the entire aviation and aerospace vehicles and extending the working life of the aircraft. Therefore, in order to improve the performance and reliability of aerospace power supply systems, it is very necessary to conduct comprehensive testing and evaluation of the power supply system.
The testing and experiment of aerospace power supply systems mainly adopts the testing of power supply systems under set working conditions. If the traditional single-machine testing method is adopted, there will be a connection process for various working condition conversions, which is difficult to simulate and test. Such a connection process is often a link where the system is prone to failure. For this reason, a power supply automation test system combining software and hardware is needed to complete the test of the performance of aerospace power supply systems.
Traditional power supply test systems can no longer meet the growing testing needs of aerospace power supply systems due to their low versatility, high price, and difficulty in operation and maintenance. A power supply test system with high flexibility, high precision, high cost performance, and high operability is needed to adapt to the development of the industry. Such a system is an ideal choice for testing aerospace power supplies, and it also has broad application prospects in the field of aerospace power supply testing and evaluation. After years of dedicated research and development, IDEALPLUSING has broken through the framework of large cabinets of traditional test systems and launched the IPS-ATDA28.5-50 aviation ground power supply with a new solution, which is highly flexible, precise, cost-effective, and highly operable. The IPS-ATDA28.5-50 aviation ground power supply provides innovative development in the entire aviation field, greatly saving space and reducing costs. It is very suitable for aerospace power supplies and has high flexibility. The power supply automatic test system used to test aerospace power supplies must have flexibility in hardware configuration and software operation. 1. Flexibility of hardware configuration
Aerospace vehicles are a huge system composed of many different functional units. The power supplies required by these units also have various power specifications. In order to meet the test requirements for power supplies of different specifications, the hardware configuration of the power supply test system needs to be freely matched according to the test requirements. For example, different hardware configuration test systems can be formed for AC-DC or DC-DC power supply modules of different power sizes for testing.
Thanks to the rich product line of IDEALPLUSING, users can choose the instruments and equipment that best suit their test needs to build a power supply test system according to their needs. The power supply test system adopts a flexible hardware framework structure, which provides the greatest flexibility and scalability for the system architecture, making it easier for customers to control costs and improve test efficiency.
2. Flexibility of software operation
Similarly, because the specifications of aerospace power supplies are numerous, the test software of the power supply test system is required to be able to cope with power supply subsystem modules of different specifications, and freely add combined test items for testing.
High accuracy
As an important part of the aviation and aerospace fields, the performance and reliability of the power supply system directly affect the performance and life of aviation and aerospace vehicles. Therefore, the power supply test system is also required to have high precision, which can test the performance parameters of the power supply more accurately.
The hardware resolution of the power automatic test system produced by IDEALPLUSING has also reached a relatively high data, which can fully meet the test application requirements of the aerospace field for high-precision power modules and the detection of voltage and current subtle changes in power modules.
Comprehensive test functions
With the rapid development of aerospace science and technology, advanced airborne equipment has also increased significantly, and higher requirements have been put forward for its power supply quality, so it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive and systematic test on the performance parameters of the aerospace power system. This also requires that the power automatic test system must have comprehensive and excellent test and measurement performance.
