Abstract
Based on the mechanism of aviators' lung injury during rapid decompression of cabin, a non-rigid lung model for rapid decompression by considering the effect of aviator's breath state and clearness of the respiratory tract was established. The calculation and results display were accomplished through C++ program. The change of pressure in lung and the discipline of peak value of pressure in lung were studied using the model built. Verification of the non-rigid lung model was done by comparing it to the experimental data and instances in literature. The zone representing the injuring level was divided according to the peak value of pressure in lung predicted under different decompression conditions. Rapid decompression feature in three typical types of plane (fighter, bomb plane, airline) were discussed. The results provide scientific data for aviator and passengers' protection as well as design for the protective equipment.
