In this paper, we consider the concept of using methods for calculating and designing rocket engine power plants for conversion modeling of local energy in the Arctic and northern regions of the Kras-noyarsk Territory, with an obvious generalization to neighboring administrative formations with similar climatic and structural and logistical conditions. The proposed structure contains power generation units linked to both industrial woodworking waste and natural and industrial thermal tails, identified as sources of low-potential heat, as well as modern low-power reactor plants of block maintenance-free design. The unifying element of power plants is a turbo generator, designed with the use of unconventional, often waste and natural low-grade heat.

The known methods of treatment of wastewater generated in rocket and space technology production using electroplating technologies do not allow to ensure the maximum permissible concentration of metal ions in treated water, or are expensive or difficult to operate. The general toxic, embryotropic and muta-genic effect of metals is well studied. These metals, getting together with water to food products in living organisms, are able to accumulate in them, causing the pathogenesis of heart diseases, brain, liver, and cancerous tumors in people. Iron ions are part of wastewater of most industries, which requires increased control and development of effective methods of wastewater treatment. The article presents a technique for conducting experiments, a method of combined water purification, including electrochemical action and adsorption, is considered. The results of studies of this method of wa-ter purification from iron ions are presented. The dependence of the degree of purification on the specific amount of electricity passing through the purified water, the strength of the electric field and the settling time is revealed. With Qav = 4.7 Kl/l, E = 1058 V/m, using quartz sand as an adsorbent and settling time for 24 hours, the concentration of iron ions decreased from 1.65 to 0, 82 mg/l. The proposed combined cleaning method requires inexpensive and affordable materials and is easy to operate.

Modern liquid rocket engines of low thrust (LRELT) represent complex engineering struc-tures, which are subject to very high requirements in terms of efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. To confirm the characteristics of the developed designs, a comprehensive set of tests for prototype samples is required, allowing their operability to be verified under conditions close to real-life operation. As part of this work, a thermodynamic calculation of the LRELT chamber for fuel components such as liquid kerosene and gaseous oxygen was conducted. The injector calculation method used in this work is based on the application of similarity criteria. This allows the transition from small-scale injectors to those suitable for full-scale testing, including stand tests using the “hydroflush” method. For testing, a specialized test rig was created, allowing the testing of injectors manufactured using modern additive technologies, such as 3D printing from polymer materials. This not only reduces the cost of creating prototypes but also accelerates the testing process. The injector tests on the stand play a crucial role in verifying their operability. This testing method allows studying the behavior of injectors in condi-tions as close to operational as possible. In this study, injectors manufactured using additive technologies from polymer plastic were used. The use of such materials in the early stages of testing helped to reduce costs and time resources for producing prototype samples. During the tests, the injectors were subjected to liquid at a specified pressure differential, which allowed their operability and fuel distribution uniformity to be assessed. The results of the tests demonstrated a high degree of correlation between theoretical calculations and actual data. The injectors showed stable operation corresponding to the calculated characteristics, and also proved their suitability for further development stages. The use of additive technologies in the manu-facturing of the injectors confirmed its effectiveness, allowing the prototype production cycle to be short-ened and costs reduced. Moreover, the “hydroflush” method proved to be a reliable means of verifying and validating the working characteristics of the injectors, which is an important step toward their implementa-tion in real-world operations. Thus, the proposed methodology, which includes the use of similarity criteria and additive technologies, significantly simplifies the process of development and testing, improves accuracy, and brings the results closer to real operating conditions. This is especially important for increasing the reliability and quality of final products used in rocket and space technology, contributing to a reduction in operational risks.

Design of a flexible spoke for a spacecraft umbrella antenna
Статья научная
Umbrella type antennas are often used in modern spacecraft. Their advantage is the possibility of compact placement during orbital insertion. At the same time, they must provide the necessary stability when deployed in space. Antenna stiffness mainly depends on the stiffness of the spokes, the design of which is a complex task of scientific research. Spacecraft antennas must provide functional performance and, at the same time, have a minimum mass. The cardinal direction of improvement of space antennas consists in application of new structural materials. Composites are characterized by high specific mechanical properties, which allow to create structures with a high degree of weight perfection. The problem is related to the presence of a large number of design parameters that affect the performance of composite structures in a complex way. Determining the optimal combination of these parameters for each structure and a particular design case leads to the need for a complex numerical experiment based on specialized algorithms, methods and programs. The aim of the study is to design a composite spoke for the umbrella antenna of a spacecraft, providing the required load-bearing capacity and maximum stiffness at a given mass limit of the structure. It involves the development of finite element models of the composite spoke of various designs, which would include the possibility of optimizing the design parameters by the criteria of strength, load-bearing capacity and stiffness. As a result of numerical experiment, the ways of increasing the bearing capacity and stiffness of the deployed spacecraft antenna are determined.

Design of a multifunctional electric propulsion subsystem of the spacecraft
Статья научная
A common way to form an electric propulsion subsystem of the spacecraft is to create specialized equipment or to select the most suitable one from the ready-made ones. However, there are cases when the use of existing equipment is not optimal enough and leads to an unjustified increase of the subsystem mass. Therefore, the ques-tion of creating a minimum equipment set possibility from which it would be possible to form propulsion subsys-tems in optimal way is of interest. The set of tasks, variants of use and possible schemes of placing orbital cor-recting propulsion on the spacecraft are presented. The list of necessary propulsion subsystem elements is pre-sented as follows: a thruster block, a tank, a xenon feed unit, a power processing unit consisting of a power unit and switching units, the complete set of cables and pipelines, the software and mechanical devices for control of the thrust vector (as an option). The necessary capacity of propellant tanks for the tasks of correction and rais-ing of the satellite to GEO with a high-pulse Hall thruster is defined: for orbit correction tasks – up to100 kg, for orbit correction and raising to GEO tasks – up to200 kg. Necessary angle rates of mechanical devices for con-trol of the thrust vector are defined taking into account possible schemes of placing thrusters on the spacecraft. It is shown that in cases when it is required to apply two or more thrusters to increase overall thrust, it is more preferable in the weight aspect to apply a combination of power and switching units instead of monoblock type of power processing units, and advantage can reach tens of kilograms. Provided the listed set of functional units is created, the offered concept will make it easy to form propulsion subsystems of the spacecraft for solving a wide range of tasks. It will reduce the time and money spent on creation of propulsion subsystem for new space-crafts.

Design of the fastening assembly of the guys on the power spokes reflector
Статья научная
Currently, global communication systems are developing towards mastering high frequency bands for organizing high-speed information transmission channels, which requires large-sized antenna systems with reflectors up to 50 meters. Most of the technical solutions used for assembling large-sized reflectors are based on technological volumetric templates that geometrically completely imitate the necessary reflective surface of the reflector. The mass of such templates increases in cubic dependence on the increase in the diameter of the reflector, which is why it becomes more and more laborious to use them when assembling large-sized antennas due to the increase in the dimensions and weight of the templates. The purpose of the study is to design the attachment point for guy wires on the power spoke of the re-flector for a "templateless" assembly. The spoke is a composite isogrid structure on which arms are fixed for attaching power units. The fastening unit is an assembly unit consisting of a bracket and clips and al-lows you to precisely adjust the necessary pull tension force to fix the cord in the working position without the use of one-piece fastening methods. The analytical approach and finite element analysis were adopted as research methods. Using an ana-lytical calculation, the maximum tensile force of the guys in the designed unit was determined, thereby set-ting the maximum load for its operation. The coefficient of friction between the cord and the clamp in each individual case is determined experimentally. After simplifying the design and construction scheme of the bracket, the analytical calculation was carried out for a three-dimensional rod frame. To confirm the results of the calculation, a finite element model of the bracket was built and its static analysis was carried out. For the developed model of the bracket, the maximum stresses were determined and their comparative analysis was carried out with the results obtained analytically. With the help of solid modeling, the mass and overall characteristics of the braces fastening unit are determined. The limiting ranges of tension forces and the materials used in the knot, as well as its strength characteristics, were determined. This unit can be used in the "templateless" method of assembling a reflector for a wide range of large antennas, it has high manufacturability and versatility.

Detection of information system objects interaction with DGA domains
Статья научная
Currently, malware developers are actively using domain name generation technique called DGA to es-tablish communication between malware and its command centers. Domain name generation in accord-ance with the given algorithm allows malicious software to bypass information protection tools blacklists, thus making blacklists ineffective, and establish a communication channel to receive control commands and parameters, as well as to transfer information from the information system to external resources con-trolled by attackers. Thus, it is necessary to develop new approaches to DGA generated domain names de-tection using DNS traffic of an information system. During the research, the authors have developed a solution for detecting information objects interaction with DGA domains based on the use of machine learning. The detection of this interaction occurs in two stages. On the first stage the classification task is being solved for each DNS name from overall infor-mation system DNS stream. On the second stage, for each DNS name classified as DGA, corresponding DNS query is being enriched using data from external sources and a final decision about the malicious nature of the query to resolve this DNS name is being made, followed by a notification of a security admin-istrator via e-mail channels. The paper describes the process of developing a classifier based on machine learning, defines the input data of the DNS name necessary for classification, presents the results of classifier training on a repre-sentative set of test data. The logic of making a decision about the malicious nature of DNS queries has been substantiated. The developed solution was tested using an experimental stand. Some recommenda-tions for correct classifier operation support are proposed. The application of the developed solution will make possible posteriori detection of information interac-tion of malicious software working on compromised information objects with the servers of attackers com-mand and control centers.

Determination of coupling loss factors for beams connected at an angle
Статья научная
The use of a statistical energy method for the analysis of dynamic systems assumes that coupling loss factors of subsystems must be known. Coupling loss factors show what part of energy moves from one subsystem to another. They are included in the system of energy balance equations and must first be determined analytically, experimentally or numerically. The most promising of the listed methods is a numerical one. In particular, this paper uses a finite element method. The purpose of this study is to determine the coupling loss factors of two subsystems in two versions of their relative positions. The basis is the model of an L-shaped connection of two beams, which is quite common in such studies. L-shaped connections of structural parts are often found in building structures, but in other industries, such as the development of space and aviation technology, structural elements are often connected at an angle other than 90°. Since energy methods (EMs) can also be applied to aerospace industry, when developing approaches to analyzing structures using such methods, it is useful to know how the energy parameters of a system, in particular coupling loss factors, change depending on the fact at what angle their components are connected. The paper considers two system configurations: in the first, the beams are connected at a right angle, in the second - at an angle of 45°. The coupling loss factors of the beams are calculated for both system configurations. Conclusions are drawn about the possibility of disseminating the results obtained to more complex structures, namely spacecraft structures.

The article describes the results of tests that have been carried out at the manufacturing plant of refrig-eration devices. These results have made it possible to estimate the capability of using a new method of testing refrigeration devices for compliance with the standards established by GOST, which determine the specific heat and power properties of each refrigeration device, depending on its type (single-chamber or with two-chambers, with one compressor or with two, etc.), passing acceptance tests. The graphs of the active power of the device will be presented when it is connected to the power supply network and the de-pendence of the change in the power graph depending on time will be described, the signs of the graphs of faulty refrigeration devices will be described, indicating the cause of the malfunction. The authors indicate the parameters by which it is proposed to compare the obtained power graphs with the reference graphs obtained when testing reliably serviceable refrigeration devices. Based on the results of comparing certain values of the parameters characterizing the device it is proposed to judge the compliance of each individu-al refrigeration device with the standard. It also provides a description of the algorithm that will be used to determine the compliance of the refrigeration device with the established parameters of heat and power characteristics that determine its performance. The implementation of this algorithm will be carried out by writing an appropriate program for the programmable logic controller (PLC).

Determination of the digital controller’s characteristics of the switched-mode power converters
Статья научная
The development of spacecrafts equipment is on the way to digitalization. In particular, energy spacecraft conversion devices are being modernized by introducing digital automatic control systems instead of analog ones. This leads to an increase in the efficiency of the power supply system, but at the same time, there is a need to create methods to determine characteristics that will confirm with a high degree of accuracy and conformity of the manufactured sample with the technical requirements specified during its design. The article describes the features of functioning and methodology for determining digital control channel of a pulse voltage converter’s characteristics. The proposed approach is a toolkit for verifying the correct implementation of both the hardware parts of the control channel and the controller, which is a program code implemented on digital control devices. The technique is based on determining the degree of responses correspondence to typical external influences of a hardware-implemented control channel and its model. Based on the transfer functions of the IIR and FIR digital filters, using standard built-in models, the control channel of the pulse voltage converter corresponding to the tested hardware-implemented device is simulated in the package Matlab Simulink. The basic principles of building the software architecture experiment are described. A block diagram of the test complex has been developed, including sources of external influence, control channel, and a test management tool (in this case, a personal computer). An example of applying such a technique to verify the parameters of the developed PID controller is given. Operability and accuracy of the proposed method to determine characteristics of the control channel by reaction to a sequence of rectangular pulses, and by constructing the AFCL are experimentally shown. Application of this verification method to production conditions will allow a complete check of individual central control units (CCU) of energy-converting equipment with closed feedbacks even at the stage of devices development, which will eliminate errors in the implementation of regulators in control loops.

The main function of a thermal control system (TCS) is to maintain the temperature at nodal points of a spacecraft in given ranges due to redistribution of thermal energy and the discharge of excess thermal energy into space. TCS may have a different design and principle of operation. One of the most common options is TCS using a liquid circuit (LC) and pumping coolant circulation. In the development of promising design-layout schemes for instrument compartments of nonhermetic formation spacecraft, it becomes necessary to state and solve new problems associated with the creation of computational and mathematical models of intermediate convective heat transfer in a fluid circuit. For systems of integral equations of a LC thermal model with fairly complex topographic boundaries and connections, the justification and use of the defining (equivalent) thermal resistance seems to be a compromise of counting implementation of a system that simulates a TCS with integration along the length of the LC. In this paper, for the computational model of the liquid circuit of the thermal control system, including the system of equations of two-dimensional thermal balance of the characteristic surfaces of a nonhermetic formation spacecraft, a method of calculating the determining thermal resistances was proposed and implemented. This method includes the calculation of the complex heat transfer coefficient and the local heat transfer coefficient to the heat carrier flow. The approach considered in this paper allows us to obtain a numerical solution for the distribution of heat flows and temperatures of liquid circuits with complex topographic boundaries and connections with minimal loss of accuracy. The determination of the local heat transfer coefficient makes it possible to take into account the influence of changes in the temperature of the coolant flow on the overall picture of convective heat exchange.

Developing the laboratory test bench of fuel three-point measurement
Статья научная
The development of digital technology allows continuous improvements in many areas. This paper reflects the development of a new fuel measurement method. To measure the fuel, the authors propose three fuel sensors and a computational element to simulate the position of the fuel level in space with further calculating the volume of fuel, to reduce errors due to the fuel meters operation. The main advantage of this system is the elimination of errors arising from the evolution of an aircraft, as well as its uneven movement. The paper demonstrates a phased development of a laboratory test bench to study the three-point method to measure fuel. In the course of the work, a vessel is assembled to simulate the fuel tank of the aircraft. The vessel is a glass container with submersible measuring sensors. Also, the research contains calculation of the bridge electrical circuit to compute a voltage value at each sensor. In the test, transformer fluid substitutes fuel, since it acted as a dielectric. The program code for the microcontroller is recorded. The proposed method has several advantages in comparison with traditional methods of measuring the fuel level; a mathematical model is presented, on the basis of which the level of fuel in the aircraft fuel tank is measured.

Development of SEM method for analysis of organ-containing objects using inverse opals
Статья научная
The purpose of this study is to test the possibility of using inorganic macroporous structures of inverse opal in sample preparation for scanning electron microscopy of biological objects. As an absorbent substrate we used silica inverse opals prepared by a sol-gel method to study the biological objects. The process of manufacturing the inverse opal involves a complex multi-stage technological process. First, we synthesized submicron spherical particles from polymethylmethacrylate by the method of emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization of methylmethacrylate in an aqueous medium in the presence of a diazoinitiator. This method can be used to obtain an ensemble of particles with high monodispersity, the average size of which can vary in the range from 100 to 500 nm. Then, by self-assembly technique, we deposited the beads of polymethylmethacrylate into ordered matrices (templates), mainly with a face-centered cubic lattice. The resulting mesoporous structures, called artificial opals or colloidal crystals, had lateral dimensions of about 10 × 10 × 2 mm. Then we heat-treated the opals to 120 °C to harden the template before being impregnated with the precursor. Further, we impregnated the opals with silica sol with a particle size distribution from 1 to 5 nm, obtained by hydrolysis of tetraethoxysilane in the presence of hydrochloric acid, and then, after curing and drying the impregnating composition in air at room temperature, we multi-stage fired them up to 550 °C at normal pressure in the air atmosphere to remove all organic components. As a result, the macroporous metamaterial (the so-called inverse opals) with an open system of pores up to 400 nm in size, occupying about 80 % of the volume, were obtained. We studied lactic acid bacteria of cucumber brine and human red blood cells with TM4000 Plus, SU3500 and S-5500 scanning electron microscopes. Auxiliary substance for the sample preparation was ionic liquid VetexQ EM (Interlab LLC). We showed that it is possible to use the inverse opal as an absorbent substrate for sample preparation and rapid analysis in scanning electron microscopy without pre-drying, chemical treatment, or temperature exposure. To improve imaging in the electron microscope, we used sputter coater to cover the inverse opal surface with a thin film of platinum. The use of ionic liquid in combination with the absorbent porous medium allows preserving an original shape of the biological structures. Using the human red blood cells and lactic acid bacteria, we showed that it is possible to carry out of the morphological analysis of the cells using various scanning electron microscopes. We found that on the basis of the inverse opal, there is a fundamental possibility of creating the absorbent substrate suitable for repeated use in the study of the biological objects. At the same time, trace remnants of previous samples remaining after annealing the plate do not introduce significant distortions when conducting new series of observations. In this study, we obtained high-quality electronic micrographs of the biological objects with high resolution and contrast. At the same time, due to the use of the inverse opals as the absorbent substrate, time and financial costs for research are reduced.

Development of a human-machine interface for cascade control mills in obtaining nepheline ore charge
Статья научная
Aluminum and alloys based on it are the main materials for space engineering, both in the production of vehicle parts, and in the organization of power supply and electronics. The raw material for producing aluminum is alumina. Alumina production is a multi-stage process that includes the processing of raw materials in various ways: mechanically, thermally, chemically. Mechanical processing of raw materials is the first stage of production, it includes a crushing department and a batch preparation department. The preparation of the charge from nepheline ore for further stages of production takes place in mills with the addition of limestone and recycled solution. The ratio of the components entering the mills directly affects the composition of the charge and the quality of the final product. At the same time, the required quality of the charge is not always ensured, since the costs of the components are set by a person based on the re-sults of a rare chemical analysis performed by the laboratory with a delay. The aim of the work is to improve the control of the mill when receiving a mixture of nepheline ore. A virtual mill control program and a mnemonic diagram were developed in the TIA Portal software environ-ment using the S7-1500 microprocessor controller. A system for automatic control of the lime and alkaline modules of the raw charge has been developed. The control program is built on the basis of calculating the moisture content of the charge, as well as the al-kaline and limestone modules, depending on the composition of the ore, limestone, as well as the feed rates of circulating water, ore and limestone to the mill. The mnemonic diagram includes an indication of important process parameters, trends in input and output characteristics, and tools for setting control actions.

The paper presents the developed methodology and designed a device for determining the Mach number during supersonic gas outflow. An analysis of various methods for determining the Mach number was carried out, including measuring the pressure at the flow boundary, the use of shock waves, and the use of optical methods. A comparison of the accuracy of the readings when using the considered methods was made. Based on the results obtained, a technique for high-precision determination of the Mach number has been developed, including a combination of several independent measurement methods. A device has been designed that implements this measurement technique, and the results of experimental tests in a wind tunnel have been reviewed, including instrument readings, graphs and tables confirming the accuracy and reliability of the data obtained. Their accuracy and reliability are analyzed. Using the analysis, it is possible to ensure the selection of the most rational method for determining the Mach number at the initial stage of designing aircraft, such as airplanes, missiles, fighters, and UAVs. Accurate knowledge of the Mach number allows engineers to optimize the aerodynamic characteristics of the aircraft, ensure flight safety, improve engine efficiency and overall air transport performance. In addition, the Mach number is the most important criterion of similarity when modeling in aerodynamic research, which makes the developed methodology and device relevant not only for the design of aircraft, but also for a wide range of scientific and engineering research in the field of aeronautical technology. It is emphasized that the presence of a reliable method for determining the Mach number can significantly reduce the time and resources spent on testing and improving aircraft, and also contributes to the development of innovative technologies in the field of aviation and astronautics.

Development of a methodology for testing SpaceWire network switches
Статья научная
The paper presents the main points of the developed methodology for testing SpaceWire network switches. The main objectives of testing this equipment are outlined. A block diagram of the workplace is provided, as well as a list of equipment with its brief description for conducting tests. To conduct the tests, special software was developed, implemented in the form of a console user application. The methodology describes in detail each step of working with this application. This article describes the algorithms that are implemented when working with the application. These algorithms are presented in the form of flowcharts, as well as in the form of a text description. Two groups are distinguished among the algorithms: basic and advanced tests. For the first group, we can distinguish: a basic test - to check the principle of removing the header in accordance with the path addressing; a load test - to check the correct operation of the switch at high load of the switching matrix, as well as checking the deletion of incoming packets that do not contain addresses in their header to be sent to one of the switch ports; an exceptional situation test is used to check the correct operation of the switch when the receiving buffer is loaded with incoming data. For the second group, we can distinguish: the routing table test - to check the correctness of the processing by the switch of the rows recorded in the routing table; the broadcast test – to check the ability of the switch to send one data packet from several ports at the same time; the adaptive group routing test – to check the ability of the switch when selecting multiple ports for data transmission to send them from the port having the highest priority. All the indicated algorithms were tested on a radiation-resistant fault-tolerant ultra-large inte-grated circuit of a programmable master switch of the 3rd level. In conclusion, further plans for the devel-opment of the methodology are outlined.

Today, we can distinguish a number of promising reusable launch vehicles “SV Wing” – a reusable cruise stage of a light-class launch vehicle; “Baikal-Angara” reusable booster of the first stage of the An-gara launch vehicle; “Soyuz-7” is a reusable two-stage medium-class launch vehicle; flight design tests of “Soyuz-7” are planned for 2025. To maintain the operational characteristics of aircraft, it is necessary to develop a maintenance system that ensures the specified reliability of flying vehicle assemblies. The pur-pose of this work is to develop a model for detecting malfunctions in the process of maintenance of units and systems of aircraft. Within the framework of this work, an algorithm has been developed, which is based on the method of statistical testing, which allows, at low computer time, to analyze the maintenance process in more detail, taking into account the duration of separate operations and their effectiveness. Da-ta on the duration and efficiency of separate operations can be obtained in the process of special tests of equipment by timing and analysis of service results. For modeling it is necessary to have the following ini-tial data: the law of distribution of the duration of separate operations; the effectiveness of troubleshooting during separate operations. The algorithm implements two types of maintenance: full and reduced. Re-duced maintenance provides for operations that are most effective in terms of the number of faults to be eliminated: adjustments, regulations, search for faulty elements. The developed model makes it possible to investigate the possibility of reducing the downtime for maintenance without a significant decrease in the quality of maintenance, namely: to assess the effectiveness of maintenance when it is carried out according to the full and reduced scheme; evaluate the effectiveness of maintenance when performing maintenance in a limited time; justify the most appropriate ways to improve the quality of service, provided that the down-time for maintenance is limited and predict the likelihood of detecting malfunctions during the maintenance process. The practical significance of the results of this work can be achieved in the aerospace industry, in particular, at the design stage (testing and operation) of a maintenance system for reusable elements of launch vehicles.

Aluminum-based alloys are widely used in many branches of modern industry (aviation, mechanical engineering, shipbuilding, instrument-making, energy and medicine, etc.). The promising method for further expanding the scope of these alloys is surface treatment based on the use of concentrated energy fluxes (laser beams, plasma flows, powerful ion beams, continuous and pulsed electron beams). The purpose of this paper is to establish the possibilities of integrated electron-ion-plasma modification of the structure and properties of the surface layer of technically pure aluminum A7. The surface alloy was formed in a single vacuum cycle using the “KOMPLEX” facility (ISE SB RAS) by spraying a titanium film with a thickness of 0.5 μm and the subsequent irradiation with an intense pulsed electron beam in the aluminum melting mode. After 20 “spraying/irradiation” cycles, nitriding (540 °C, 8 h) of the formed surface alloy was performed in a low-pressure gas discharge plasma using the plasma generator “PINK”. Surface alloy studies were carried out applying the modern materials science methods (scanning and transmission electron diffraction microscopy, X-ray phase analysis, determination of hardness and wear resistance). The choice of elements alloying the surface layer of aluminum was based on the analysis of binary state diagrams of Al-N, Al-Ti, Ti-N systems and the isotermal section of the ternary system Al-Ti-N. It has been shown that formation of an entire series of binary and ternary compounds, including MAX-phases of the composition Ti2AlN and Ti4AlN3, is observed under equilibrium conditions in the Al-Ti-N system. The carried out research has allowed to state that an integrated method of electron-ion-plasma modification of technically pure A7 aluminum by nitriding (540 °C, 8 h) of the surface alloy formed by pulsed melting in vacuum of the Al-Ti system (20 “spraying/irradiation” cycles with an electron beam with parameters 10 J/cm2; 50 μs; 10 pulses; the titanium film thickness in each cycle 0.5 μm) leads to formation of a multiphase multielement submicro-nanocrystalline surface layer up to 20 μm thick. It is shown that the mechanical (microhardness) and tribological (wear resistance and friction coefficient) properties of the formed surface layer exceed manifold the properties of the original commercially pure aluminum A7.
