月球探测器轨道设计与地面观测弧

本文研究月球探测器轨道设计方法及与地面观测弧的关系。主要研究地月直接转移轨道和定相环形转移轨道。通过建立Ｂ平面用迭代方法得到满足要求的月球卫星轨道，并认为定相环形转移轨道的测控优于直接转移轨道。     

扭转单模光纤偏振态调制的实验研究

在理想的单模光纤中,HE_(11)~z模和HE_(11)~y模简并,传播常数相等,各自独立传播。光纤受外场扰动将使两模式失简并,相互产生耦合,使光波的偏振态发生变化。本文应用模耦合理论和弹光方程,建立单模光纤中偏振态与扭转扰动之间的关系,并且进行了实验研究。实验结果与理论分析基本相符。 实验研究表明,利用单模光纤偏振态的调制特性,设计出一种新的光纤扭转角传感器是有可能实现的。     

联焰板长度对驻涡燃烧室凹腔流动特性影响的数值模拟

开展了联焰板长度对驻涡燃烧室凹腔冷态流场特性影响的数值研究,结果表明：联焰板的流向长度存在两个临界值：Lc1=1 mm 和Lc2=9 mm,当联焰板的流向长度小于等于临界长度Lc1时,主流会卷入凹腔中,凹腔中无法形成双涡结构;当联焰板的流向长度大于临界长度Lc1小于等于Lc2时,凹腔中可以形成双涡结构,但仍有部分主流会卷入凹腔中;当联焰板流向长度大于Lc2时,凹腔中可以形成双涡结构, 主流几乎不会卷入凹腔中。     

流动环境中三维圆形垂直浮力射流特性实验研究

为了揭示流动环境中三维圆形垂直浮力射流的规律,运用MicroADV流速测量系统和温度测量系统对不同射流——来流流速比情况下的圆形垂直热水浮力射流进行了实验研究。在对试验所得的速度场、温度场资料进行整理的基础上,对流场的流动结构,射流中出现的分叉现象,射流轨迹线,湍动能等时均特性和紊动特性进行了分析。认为基于最大速度和最高温度的射流轨迹线是不同的,射流横断面上两高温区的夹角的范围同前人在空气中所作试验是一致的。表明试验结果是可信的,可以用于揭示圆形浮力射流的规律和数值模拟的验证。     

孔型对多孔平板气膜冷却效果的数值研究

本文从加强气膜孔内的换热量和热侧的气膜覆盖两个角度来提高气膜孔壁的冷却效果,数值计算结果表明收缩进气可以强化孔内的对流换热,一般可以使换热量提高0.7倍左右;扩张出气可以使冷气出口的速度降低,气膜覆盖面更广,提高气膜的覆盖效果。     

Four-month Moon and Mars crew water utilization study conducted at the Flashline Mars Arctic Research Station,Devon Island,Nunavut

A categorized water usage study was undertaken at the Flashline Mars Arctic Research Station on Devon Island, Nunavut in the High Canadian Arctic. This study was conducted as part of a long duration four-month Mars mission simulation during the summer of 2007. The study determined that the crew of seven averaged 82.07 L/day over the expedition (standard deviation 22.58 L/day). The study also incorporated a Mars Time Study phase which determined that an average of 12.12 L/sol of water was required for each crewmember. Drinking, food preparation, hand/face, oral, dish wash, clothes wash, shower, shaving, cleaning, engineering, science, plant growth and medical water were each individually monitored throughout the detailed study phases. It was determined that implementing the monitoring program itself resulted in an approximate water savings of 1.5 L/day per crewmember. The seven person crew averaged 202 distinct water draws a day (standard deviation 34) with high water use periods focusing around meal times. No statistically significant correlation was established between total water use and EVA or exercise duration. Study results suggest that current crew water utilization estimates for long duration planetary surface stays are more than two times greater than that required.     

Analysis of CNES’ scientific production in aerospace research: 60 years of commitment with the future

CNES (Centre National d'Études Spatiales) acts, since its creation in 1961, as the French Space Agency and is a key leader in space research, and scientific and technical developments. Its involvement in a broad range of programs has positioned CNES as one of the most relevant national research agencies, leading efforts and initiatives in both European and international contexts. This article provides a review and analysis of the scientific and technical production of CNES, using as input the papers written by CNES staff referenced in the Scopus database. The period under study dates to 1964 and includes more than 10.000 documents. The study analyses measurable characteristics of CNES documents’ production: productivity, collaboration, and impact through citations. This paper provides a contribution aimed to gain a better understanding and characterisation of the scientific activity completed by Space agencies.
