Description
Large box bottom and forming method thereof Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of rocket structure manufacturing, in particular to a large-sized box bottom and a forming method thereof. Background In the aerospace field, rocket body diameters of rockets continue to increase. The dry weight ratio of the fuel storage tank is 80% as the main body structure of the rocket, the fuel storage tank is generally composed of front and rear tank bottoms, a cylinder section, a short shell and other parts, not only bears the fuel storage function, but also needs to bear complex loads such as internal pressure, shaft pressure, vibration, impact and the like, and the operation reliability of the rocket is directly determined. The multiple increase in the diameter of the arrow presents challenges to the design and manufacture of the arrow structure, with the manufacture of large fuel tank bottoms being one of the core challenges. The large-sized box bottom is of a semi-ellipsoidal curved surface structure, has the characteristics of super-large diameter and super-thin wall thickness, the wall thickness of the 5 m-level aluminum alloy box bottom is only a few millimeters, the thickness of the 10 m-level stainless steel box bottom is less than 4mm, the defects of instability and wrinkling easily occur in the whole forming process, and meanwhile, the characteristics of arrow-shaped structural materials such as poor formability and deep structural cavities further increase the risk of cracking in the forming process.
