20cm口径离子推力器性能建模与仿真

为了分析国内首台通过在轨飞行测试的20cm离子推力器栅极系统束流离子运行特性和推力器性能,针对该推力器栅极系统建立了束流引出二维数值仿真计算模型,利用PIC/MCC数值仿真计算方法,模拟束流引出过程中带电粒子在电场作用下的加速、聚焦与引出、带电粒子与中性原子之间的相互作用、电场和等离子体流场之间的相互耦合等过程。数值计算结果显示,屏栅截获的离子电流约为1.71×10 -4 A,加速栅截获的电流和CEX离子电流分别为0 A和9.11×10 -7 A,因此,加速栅电流的主要来源是冲击到其表面的CEX离子,证明了加速栅电流的主要来源是冲击到其表面的CEX离子,计算的加速栅截获电流与束流电流之比约为0.114%。试验测得推力器运行4000h期间,电子反流极限电压始终为75~90〖KG*9〗V,其变化幅度很小,这意味着中和器发射的电子在栅极系统中的反流不会导致其发生失效。理论计算结果与试验测试值相比,误差约为1.08%。〖JP〗     

发散冷却系统冷却能力的数值分析

以给定冷却工质质量流速下系统所能承受的最大热流表征冷却能力,对影响发散冷却系统冷却能力的主要因素进行了数值研究。理论分析和数值计算结果表明:发散冷却的冷却能力受冷却工质的吸热能力和冷却工质与固体骨架之间的换热能力共同制约。在小冷却工质质量流速下,发散冷却系统的冷却能力主要取决于冷却工质吸热能力,而随着冷却工质质量流速的增加,流固换热能力则逐渐成为决定冷却能力的主要因素,进而导致固体热导率和冷却工质比热容对发散冷却系统冷却能力的影响在不同冷却工质质量流速下存在显著差异。      

阳极电流和屏栅电压对5kW离子推力器性能的影响

为了研究5kW离子推力器功率宽范围工作能力,采用试验的方法得到阳极电流和屏栅电压与其性能的影响关系。研究结果表明：离子束流随阳极电流增大呈线性增大。当屏栅电压增加时,推力器离子束流先增加然后趋于稳定,加速栅电流单调减小。推力随功率增大呈线性增长,比冲随功率的增大呈非线性增长,在功率308W~4813W下实现了推力12mN~184mN,比冲1817s~3538s, 效率34%~67%的宽范围调节。同时推力器效率随功率增大逐渐增大,并在2902W时存在明显拐点,在实际在轨应用中要根据任务需求确定最佳工作区间提高推力器性能和效率。     

离子推力器高效高可靠性屏栅电源设计

为了进一步提高离子推力器的可靠性和使用寿命,采用6个电源模块串联输出的方法设计了高效高可靠性的屏栅电源试验样机,每个模块采用全桥LLC谐振变换器,并对屏栅电源模块的性能、打火时开关管的瞬态电流应力分别进行了测试研究。结果表明：屏栅电源模块采用全桥LLC谐振变换器,可以实现零电压开通零电流关断（ZVSZCS）,整个电源的转换效率提高到96.9%;单个电源模块输出电压为210V,电源模块内部没有大于250V 的交流电压峰值,简化了高压绝缘设计的难度;变换器初级较大谐振电感的限流作用使得推力器出现打火时,开关器件瞬态电流仅为40A。该设计可以有效提高屏栅电源的效率和可靠性,可以应用于小行星探测等深空探测航天器的电推进系统。     

Effects of long-term low atmospheric pressure on gas exchange and growth of lettuce

The objectives of this research were to determine photosynthesis, evapotranspiration and growth of lettuce at long-term low atmospheric pressure. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. cv. Youmaicai) plants were grown at 40 kPa total pressure (8.4 kPa _pO₂$p_{{\text{O}}_2}$) or 101 kPa total pressure (20.9 kPa _pO₂$p_{{\text{O}}_2}$) from seed to harvest for 35 days. Germination rate of lettuce seeds decreased by 7.6% at low pressure, although this was not significant. There was no significant difference in crop photosynthetic rate between hypobaria and ambient pressure during the 35-day study. The crop evapotranspiration rate was significantly lower at low pressure than that at ambient pressure from 20 to 30 days after planting (DAP), but it had no significant difference before 20 DAP or after 30 DAP. The growth cycle of lettuce plants at low pressure was delayed. At low pressure, lettuce leaves were curly at the seedling stage and this disappeared gradually as the plants grew. Ambient lettuce plants were yellow and had an epinastic growth at harvest. The shoot height, leaf number, leaf length and shoot/root ratio were lower at low pressure than those at ambient pressure, while leaf area and root growth increased. Total biomass of lettuce plants grown at two pressures had no significant difference. Ethylene production at low pressure decreased significantly by 38.8% compared with ambient pressure. There was no significant difference in microelements, nutritional phytochemicals and nitrate concentrations at the two treatments. This research shows that lettuce can be grown at long-term low pressure (40 kPa) without significant adverse effects on seed germination, gas exchange and plant growth. Furthermore, ethylene release was reduced in hypobaria.     

Simultaneous observations of the plasma density on the same field line by the CPMN ground magnetometers and the Cluster satellites

By applying the cross-phase method and the amplitude-ratio method to magnetic field data obtained from two ground stations located close to each other, we can determine the frequency of the field line resonance (FLR), or the field line eigenfrequency, for the field line running through the midpoint of the two stations. From thus identified FLR frequency we can estimate the equatorial plasma mass density (ρ)$(\rho )$ by using the T05s magnetospheric field model [Tsyganenko, N.A., Sitnov, M.I. Modeling the dynamics of the inner magnetosphere during strong geomagnetic storms, J. Geophys. Res. 110, A03208, 2005] and the equation of Singer et al. [Singer, H.J., Southwood, D.J., Walker, R.J., Kivelson, M.G. Alfven wave resonances in a realistic magnetospheric magnetic field geometry, J. Geophys. Res. 86 (A6) 4589–4596, 1981].
