Currently there is a technical problem of delivery with an underwater station on the unstable surface of the cylindrical module that is installed in a vertical launch tube with lid, with strong undercurrents. To reduce the effect of lateral hydrodynamic pressure of the flow (and thus reduce the load on the module during the evacuation on the surface of the water), you need around a module to create a combined cycle gas turbine cavity, reducing the load on the module and volatility of the module on the underwater site.

Known "Method of evacuation on the water surface of the cylindrical module with an underwater station and device for its implementation" (see U.S. Pat. 2207294 RF). The device comprises a launch tube with a cylindrical module, installed in the launch pit, the site of formation of caverns and node startup, where the site of formation of cavities made in the form of gas generators with nozzles installed at the upper edge of the launch tube.

It is also known Device for the evacuation of the underwater station on the cylindrical surface of the water module (see U.S. Pat. 2252896 RF)containing the starting well mounted on the underwater station to accommodate the cylindrical module and executed with cap and seal established between the wall of the well and the module and mounted on a cylindrical module of gasolinera the PR for the formation of cavities around this module, the gas generator is made in the form set out on the bow of the cylindrical extension zone of the solid hydroregime fuel (TGRT) with the initiator of combustion, with the upper side of this belt has a flat surface, and in the wall of starting a well established producer gas pressurization podkasochnogo space communicating with the cavity formed by the cover wall of the starting shaft and the seal, and the generators charge podkasochnogo space are vysokotemperaturnye the generators (2500-2800 K).

The disadvantage of the first Devices..." is the lack of stability of gas-dynamic parameters of an Autonomous high-temperature gas generators because of the variation of the pressure in the combustion chamber (due to scatter the burning speed and the mass of solid propellant charges Autonomous generators).

The disadvantage of the second "Device..." is the complexity of the design of the cavitator in the form of a belt of hydroregime fuel with combustion temperature ~2200 K and its development, in addition to its activation requires high temperature gases, which leads to the need for additional thermal protection of the head part module.

To address these shortcomings, the authors propose a "Device for the evacuation of the cylindrical module with an underwater station on the surface of the water", with whom containing a series of launch tube with cap with radial weakened sections, on the outer surfaces of which are in the area of the cover along the perimeter of the installed high-temperature (~2500 K) generators, and inside the launch tube has a cylindrical module with pointed head part with a ring cavitator and an annular seal between the cylindrical surface of the module and the inner surface of the launch tube, the cavity between the seal and cover the launch tube connected with a source of pressure to perform in the form of low-temperature (~500 K) gas generators, outlet temperature (~2500 K) gas generators offered gazodinamichesky to combine annular receiver, which are output nozzle at its perimeter, which are directed upward at an angle α=0...25° to the longitudinal axis of the launch tube, and cavitator is proposed to run from angular profile with a sharp leading edge in the form of partial semirings, for example, using two protomoteca, which will be triggered by the signal control system, and the distance from the toe of the head part to the plane of installation of the cavitator is L=1,1 0,5...D ring width cavitator δ=0,01 0,02...D (where D is the diameter of the cylindrical module).

Proposed by the authors of "a Device for the evacuation of the cylindrical module with an underwater station on the surface of the water" is illustrated by drawings:

figure 1 is a longitudinal section of the Device is the",

figure 2 - view of the Device..." from the outside ( ← )

figure 3 - view And (centering ring of the cavitator on the module),

figure 4 - type B (connection semirings cavitator with pyrolysates).

The proposed "Device..." contains (see figure 1): the launch tube 1 with a cover 2 with a radial weakened sections. Outside the launch tube along the perimeter of the installed high-temperature (~2500 K) generators 3. Inside the launch tube has a cylindrical module 4 with pointed head part 5, on which is fixed an annular cavitator 6 at a distance L=1,1 0,5...D from toe head part (where D is the diameter of the cylindrical module). Between the cylindrical surface of the module 4 and the inner surface of the launch tube has an annular seal 7. High-temperature gas generators 3 United gazodinamichesky annular receiver 8, which are output nozzle 9, which are directed upward at an angle α=0...25° to the longitudinal axis of the launch tube. Podkrasochnoy space 10 (the cavity between the seal 7 and the cover 2) is connected with a source of gas pressure, made in the form of low-temperature (~500 K) gas generators 11 installed outside the launch tube and connected through the holes 12 of the wall of the launch tube with podkrashennym space 10. Ring cavitator 6 (angular profile with pointed front edge) has a width to LCA δ, the protruding above the surface of the head part in the radial direction (see figure 3) and is equal to δ=0,01 0,02...D (where D is the diameter of the cylindrical module). Cavitator 6 consists of two half-rings, each of which is in the middle of the ring diametrically opposite now on the surface of the head part on the distance L from the toe head with clamp 13 (pin). Half of the cavitator 6 in place of their junction are fastened with the help of protomoteca 14 reset cavitator (see figure 4). For fastening the half-rings are two of pyrolysates. Each semi-ring (15 and 16) of the cavitator has terminal element in the form of lugs (17 and 18 respectively). This one semicircle is in tangential engagement with the other semicircle.

Peritoneal 14 is a combination of two telescopically inserted into each other in the cylinder and fixed between a shear screw 19. One of the cylinders 20 is inside the pyrotechnic firecracker 21 and the actuator 22. The shank of the cylinder 20 has an external thread. Another cylinder 23 has a blank cylindrical cavity and a shank with an external thread. For fixing lug 17 of the cylinder 20 are nuts 24 and 25. For fixing lug 18 of the cylinder 23 are nuts 26 and 27. Peritoneal 14 is mounted in lugs 17 and 18 with nuts 25 and 26, previously screwed on the cylinder 20 and 23 is a guarantee of the gap between the ends of the half rings 15 and 16. Nuts 24 and 27 peritoneal 14 tightened the lugs 17 and 18 (up to touch the ends of the half rings). Nuts 25 and 26 is provided definitive fixation of pyrolysates 14.

Before the start of a cylindrical module for 0.2-0.5 s on command from a remote control are included Autonomous high-temperature and low-temperature gasifiers. High temperature gases into the receiver to equalize the pressure, which is output nozzles gases with averaged parameters create water vapor-gas cavity. Low-temperature gases fill podkrasochnoy space and create a pressure equal to the hydrostatic pressure above the lid of the launch tube, thereby providing optimal conditions cover opening on the weakened sections from exposure to moving module.

Combined cycle cavity (cavity) increases in volume and rises up from the expansion and the Archimedes force to a height of 0.5-0.8 of the height of the cylindrical module. Moving the module permeates the gas passage, cavitator captures gas from it (cavity), and therefore behind the cavitator around a cylindrical module head is formed with a gas cavity, closing below the center of mass of the cylindrical module, which leads to a significant reduction of the instability of the module when moving in the water. This leads to the reduction of load during movement of the module in the gas is howling cavity, as well as decrease the angles of the output module on the surface of the water 2-3 times.

After the release of a cylindrical module on the surface of the water and lifting it to a predetermined height by the signal control system operate the cutter 22 protomoteca 14 reset cavitator, which leads to the activation of the pyrotechnic squibs 21 inside protomoteca. The pressure in pyrolysates increases, shear screw 19 is cut off, the ring is disconnected, go to the tabs 13 and the pulse strength of protomoteca discarded in opposite directions from the cylindrical module.

The proposed device allows to eliminate the effects of underwater currents on the towed module, which in turn improves the accuracy and reliability of evacuation from under the water.
