GEO长寿命卫星热管在轨等温性能分析

热管是GEO长寿命卫星热控设计大量使用的重要传热元件，其在轨等温传热性能是影响卫星安全可靠工作的关键因素。针对中国在轨长期稳定运行的GEO长寿命卫星热管，基于热管在轨温度遥测数据，采用数理统计方法分析热管在轨等温性能随时间的实际变化规律，分析表明：GEO长寿命卫星热管在轨等温性能稳定性良好，等温性受热管自身温度水平影响较大，年周期内呈现季节性变化，全寿命周期内随飞行时间推移呈现性能衰减下降趋势，寿命末期等温性优于1.6℃，并从热管设计、热负荷大小与分布、使用环境等方面进行等温性改进分析及应用建议。     

模块化热控技术及其在低轨卫星中的应用

Differently from traditional integration satellites, the modular satellites consist of several structurally independent modules and the heat dissipation is unevenly distributed, while the interface between modules should support repeatable connection separating. Therefore, the traditional thermal control design, which supports the independent heat dissipation of an integration satellite, cannot meet the thermal control requirements of the modular satellite. In this paper the modular thermal control technology is proposed. The carbon nanotube array on metal substrate is used as the thermal interface of the modules to realize the separable cross module heat transfer. The internal surface of structural panels is coated by graphene film to enhance the internal heat transfer in the modules with limited internal space. The smart thermal control coating is used at all the heat rejection surfaces to suppress the orbital heat flux variations. By using the technology, the thermal connection of the assembly and reconstruction system is built and the synergistic heat dissipation of the whole satellite is achieved. As to validate the proposed technology, the finite element model of the circular low earth orbit satellite is established and the in orbit temperature in the extreme working conditions is simulated. The result indicates that the modular thermal control technology proposed in this paper can satisfy the thermal control demand of the modular satellite.

LIPS-300离子电推力器工作时产生的大量热耗会严重影响其工作性能,因此推力器的热控设计和在轨温度预计是推力器设计的关键技术之一。文章首先提出了地球静止轨道LIPS-300离子电推力器热设计,建立了离子电推力器热分析有限元模型。然后,针对典型的地球静止轨道位保工况开展了LIPS-300离子电推力器的在轨热分析,得到了LIPS-300离子电推力器重点部件在轨工作时的温度预计：下极靴、阳极筒、屏栅、下磁钢为主要的高温位置,且下磁钢温度可能超出材料温度上限。最后,基于热分析的结果结合离子电推力器的特点提出适当增加外壳散热面积是离子电推力器优化设计的有效方向,而增强阳极筒、极靴与屏栅筒间的内部换热是无效的设计优化方向。
