Description
Summary:Solar radiation simulator is widely used in many fields such aviation, aerospace, armament, agriculture, auto industry and material. Meanwhile, a lot of analysis and experiments are conducted by many scholars which base on sectional temperature distribution of concrete filled steel tube (CFST) under actual solar radiation effect. Considered that complex analysis results are different from physical conditions and there are many operational difficulties in the complex experiments, a solar radiation simulator of which features can meet the 2-class requirements of solar simulator general specification is designed, and 4 CFST specimens are conducted under unilateral radiation test. The conclusion is that the sectional temperature distribution is well agreed with the analysis results of such simple progress, therefore in order to make up for the shortcomings of complex numerical analysis reliability and experimental operability in the actual situation, the secondary development and design achievements could be conducted basing on it.
