The existing aviation laser, especially the high-power laser structure which can be applied to the aviation photoelectric platform, has the problems that the heat accumulation is difficult to remove, the normal work of the laser and the stability of the aviation photoelectric load are influenced, and the imaging quality is influenced because the existing aviation laser is integrated in the aviation photoelectric platform; due to the high-power characteristic of the aviation laser, the structure volume is large, the arrangement of water cooling equipment is difficult, the working condition of aviation photoelectric load is complex, and the heat pipe heat dissipation mode is difficult to implement.
Aiming at the problems, the aviation laser adopts air cooling heat dissipation, and adopts the heat dissipation shell 3 capable of realizing air cooling heat dissipation, so that the laser main body 1 generates heat in the front work of the heat dissipation shell 3 and the laser mounting plate 2, the heat dissipation shell 3 on the back exchanges heat with the outside through the shell surface, and the air cooling heat dissipation of the laser main body 1 is realized through the heat dissipation shell 3. The shell surface of the heat dissipation shell 3 is directly contacted with the atmospheric environment, the aircraft has a certain flight height in the aviation photoelectric load working process, the external environment is in a low-temperature state, and in the aircraft flight process, external cold air passes through the outer surface of the heat dissipation shell 3 to quickly dissipate heat of the outer surface of the heat dissipation shell 3 in a heat convection mode, so that the temperature of the outer surface of the heat dissipation shell 3 is reduced, and the heat dissipation of the aviation laser is realized.
One of the core improvement points of the invention is to use the heat dissipation shell 3 to perform air cooling heat dissipation of the aviation laser, the shell surface of the heat dissipation shell 3 plays a main role in air cooling heat dissipation, and the shape and quality of the shell surface play a crucial role in heat dissipation; therefore, the outer surface of the shell 3, namely the shell surface, should have smooth and uniform transition surface, and the contact area with the outside atmosphere is large enough while the structural strength is ensured, so as to ensure the comprehensive and sufficient air cooling and heat dissipation.
The structural form of the heat dissipation housing 3 is various, including but not limited to regular conventional shapes, and shapes having an arc surface, such as an ellipsoid, a sphere, and the like, may also be adopted. Illustratively, the heat dissipation housing 3 is hollow and hemispherical, and the shell surface is a hemispherical surface.

For better technical effect, the heat exchange process of air cooling heat dissipation is considered, the heat exchange process between the outside and the heat dissipation shell 3 is not only involved, but also the heat exchange process between the heat dissipation shell 3 and the laser installation plate 2 is involved, therefore, in order to improve the heat exchange effect between the heat dissipation shell 3 and the laser installation plate 2, a layer of heat conduction plate 35 is arranged between the laser installation plate 2 and the heat dissipation shell 3, and the heat conduction plate 35 is used for promoting the heat exchange process between the laser installation plate and the heat dissipation shell, and assisting in rapid heat conduction.
