Abstract: The infrared contrast between airport support equipment and its working background is studied, and an infrared camouflage scheme for the front part of a car is made. After a series of experiment on structure and materials, a new kind of heat insulation blanket is developed, which comprises two 3 mm thick ceramic fiber layers and a 3 mm thick phase-change paraffin wax capsule layer sandwiched in them. To verify its camouflage effect, field experiment is conducted with a thermal imager, and numerical simulation is made by using ANSYS. It turns out that this heat insulation blanket can be used effectively to control the temperature of equipment and background, which meets the infrared radiation camouflage specifications.

Key words: heat, airport support equipment, heat insulation blanket, phase change material, infrared camouflage, experiment
