太阳系行星及行星际大气环境特性研究

研究了行星及行星际大气环境特性。为了克服用玻耳兹曼公式（BF）计算行星大气总分子数时出现的发散困难，在玻耳兹曼公式中引入新的归一化函数g（r），得到了新的行星大气分布律公式（RBF），探讨了归一化函数的物理意义。和Jeans的理论进行了比较。用RBF计算了太阳系中木星、土星、天王星、海王星和土卫六的大气密度随高度的分布。这些结果对于开展行星探测工作有一定的指导意义。     

多层太阳大气模式中Alfven波的传播

将实际的太阳大气划分为多个等温层次，导出了均匀倾斜磁场下线性Alfven波通过任意多等温层的能量透射率，结果表明，两等温层模式与三等温层模式的结果存在本质的区别。在两等温层中，温度的跃变式增高对Alfven波起着高通滤波的作用，而三等温层中在高频端Alfven波的透射率显示为振荡形态，对实际大气温度模式的计算结果表明，太阳低层大气更适合于周期为数秒的Alfven波的能量传输。

Estimates of Carrington-class solar particle event radiation exposures as a function of altitude in the atmosphere of Mars

Radiation exposure estimates for crew members on the surface of Mars may vary widely because of the large variations in terrain altitude. The maximum altitude difference between the highest (top of Olympus Mons) and the lowest (bottom of the Hellas impact basin) points on Mars is about 32 km. In this work estimates of radiation exposures as a function of altitude, from the Hellas impact basin to Olympus Mons, are made for a solar particle event proton radiation environment comparable to the Carrington event of 1859. We assume that the proton energy distribution for this Carrington-type event is similar to that of the Band Function fit of the February 1956 event. In this work we use the HZETRN 2010 radiation transport code, originally developed at NASA Langley Research Center, and the Computerized Anatomical Male and Female human geometry models to estimate exposures for aluminum shield areal densities similar to those provided by a spacesuit, surface lander, and permanent habitat as a function of altitude in the Mars atmosphere. Comparisons of the predicted organ exposures with current NASA Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs) are made.     

超声速飞行器鼻锥空间气动热特性数值研究

采用STAR-CCM+软件,用经过验证的湍流模型和方法,模拟空间(0~46km)环境中鼻锥模型在超声速飞行状态下的气动热特性,讨论了地面高焓风洞与空间飞行环境的区别.主要区别表现在如下3个方面:1要达到一定的滞止点温度,地面高焓风洞热环境依赖于超声速气动热与电弧加热的耦合作用;2在相同滞止温度的工况下,地面高焓风洞实验使得整个鼻锥实验件壁面都暴露在高温气流下,而空间飞行气动热主要集中在滞止点附近;3在相同滞止温度的工况下,空间飞行器的滞止区压力远远低于地面风洞实验压力.数值模拟揭示:相同来流马赫数下,随海拔高度增加,真实空间飞行条件下鼻锥滞止压力持续降低,而滞止温度则先下降然后升高;在同一空间高度下,随着来流马赫数增大,滞止温度和压力均呈抛物性增长,同时激波位置逐渐靠近前缘壁面,滞止区激波层变薄,但当来流马赫数高于4之后这种趋势将不再明显.

Exploration life support technology challenges for the Crew Exploration Vehicle and future human missions

As NASA implements the U.S. Space Exploration Policy, life support systems must be provided for an expanding sequence of exploration missions. NASA has implemented effective life support for Apollo, the Space Shuttle, and the International Space Station (ISS) and continues to develop advanced systems. This paper provides an overview of life support requirements, previously implemented systems, and new technologies being developed by the Exploration Life Support Project for the Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) and Lunar Outpost and future Mars missions. The two contrasting practical approaches to providing space life support are (1) open loop direct supply of atmosphere, water, and food, and (2) physicochemical regeneration of air and water with direct supply of food. Open loop direct supply of air and water is cost effective for short missions, but recycling oxygen and water saves costly launch mass on longer missions. Because of the short CEV mission durations, the CEV life support system will be open loop as in Apollo and Space Shuttle. New life support technologies for CEV that address identified shortcomings of existing systems are discussed. Because both ISS and Lunar Outpost have a planned 10-year operational life, the Lunar Outpost life support system should be regenerative like that for ISS and it could utilize technologies similar to ISS. The Lunar Outpost life support system, however, should be extensively redesigned to reduce mass, power, and volume, to improve reliability and incorporate lessons learned, and to take advantage of technology advances over the last 20 years. The Lunar Outpost design could also take advantage of partial gravity and lunar resources.

Alfven波在微电离大气中的衰减特性研究

利用简单的偶极子地磁场模型以及大气电子密度和电导率模式, 分析地面产生的磁扰动以Alfven波的模式传播到近地空间区域. 这种地面的磁扰动可能干扰近地空间卫星对空间磁扰动的观测. 通过对地面磁扰动Alfven波模式1000 km高度内的衰减情况进行模拟, 认为在近地空间采用地磁偶极子模型是合理的. 由于衰减随扰动频率的增大而急剧增强, 分析还得到了近地卫星能够探测到地面磁扰动的最大频率. 计算结果表明, Alfven波的衰减主要集中在高度50 km以下, 这个区域内的大气电导率极其微弱, 使Alfven波的传播受到极大衰减. 0.4 Hz以下的Alfven波沿磁力线传播到1000 km高度后衰减结为原来扰动幅度的千分之一, 因此频率在0.4 Hz以下的Alfven波可能会干扰低轨卫星探测磁场脉动.
