An aircraft cabin is a narrow, closed-space environment To keep the air quality in cabin healthy for passengers, especially during an epidemic such as SARS-CoV-2 (or 2019-nCoV) in 2020, a novel aircraft air conditioning system, called the ultra-high-temperature instantaneous sterilization air conditioning system (UHT-ACS), is proposed Based on the proposed system, a simulation of the UHT-ACS is analysed in various flight states In the UHT-ACS, the mixing air temperature of return and bleed air can reach temperature up to 148 8℃, which is high enough to kill bacilli and viruses in 2-8 s The supply air temperature of the UHT-ACS in a mixing cavity is about 12℃ in cooling mode, both on the ground and in the air The supply air temperature is about 42℃ in heating mode Compared with the air conditioning systems (ACS) of traditional aircraft, the supply air temperatures of the UHT-ACS in the mixing cavity are in good agreement with those of a traditional ACS with 60% fresh air and 40% return air Furthermore, the air temperature at the turbine outlet of the UHT-ACS is higher than that of a traditional ACS, which will help to reduce the risk of icing at the outlet Therefore, the UHT-ACS can operate normally in various flight states © 2020, Editorial Department of Transactions of NUAA All right reserved
