Design and Verification of the Feet Design used for the “Heat Flow Property Package Instrument” (HP3) on-board the Mars Mission InSight

The HP³ instrument measures the thermal flux through the Martian crust using a penetration probe. Launched on the InSight mission in 2018, HP³ was deployed for penetration activities in the beginning of 2019. During initial operation, the instrument is vulnerable to slip, due to a combination of low system mass (3.3 kg on Earth), shocks delivered by the penetration probe’s action, and the possibility of an inclined attitude on the surface. An uncontrolled position change of the instrument on the surface can reduce the scientific output and even lead to a loss of the experiment if the probe’s supporting structure moves laterally. Naturally, the design of the feet has major impact on the total amount of slippage. A new design for the feet with a high slippage resistance capability at a low level of complexity and mass was developed for this instrument’s supporting structure. The design provides sufficient slippage resistance while fulfilling the challenging set of requirements for a Mars surface mission. The design was verified by test campaigns which emulate launch environments and operational behavior on Mars. This paper gives a detailed overview of the HP³ instrument itself, the relevant requirements, the complex different test campaigns and the final flight design.     

基于复合推进系统动态模型-状态变量模型的航空发动机直接推力预测控制

直接推力控制可以有效改善推力控制的品质,针对航空发动机直接推力控制问题,进行了模型预测控制(Model Predictive Control, MPC)研究。为了提升航空发动机推力控制的精度,提出了基于复合推进系统动态模型-状态变量模型(Compact Propulsion System Dynamic Model-State Variable Model-State Variable Model, CPSDM-SVM)的航空发动机直接推力预测控制方法。CPSDM实时估计出不可测参数（推力、喘振裕度等）的基准值,SVM则根据未来输入实时预测发动机未来响应。由于CPSDM将发动机分为进气道、核心机、喷管、喘振裕度、推力等进行建模,在兼顾精度的同时,提高机载模型的实时性。CPSDM-SVM作为MPC算法中的预测模型,具有较高的精度和实时性。仿真结果表明,在与基于分段线化模型的传统模型预测控制方法实时性基本相同的情况下,所提出方法控制效果有明显的提升,调节时间减小了1.17s。所提出方法稳态控制精度为0.08%,传统方法稳态精度为2.58%。因此,所提出方法在保证实时性的条件下,提升了控制精度和控制效果。

An atmosphere-breathing propulsion system using inductively coupled plasma source

CubeSats have attracted more research interest recently due to their lower cost and shorter production time. A promising technology for CubeSat application is atmosphere-breathing electric propulsion, which can capture the atmospheric particles as propulsion propellant to maintain long-term mission at very low Earth orbit. This paper designs an atmosphere-breathing electric propulsion system for a 3 U CubeSat, which consists of an intake device and an electric thruster based on the inductively coupled plasma. The capture performance of intake device is optimized considering both particles capture efficiency and compression ratio. The plasma source is also analyzed by experiment and simulation. Then, the thrust performance is also estimated when taking into account the intake performance. The results show that it is feasible to use atmosphere-breathing electric propulsion technology for CubeSats to compensate for aerodynamic drag at lower Earth orbit.
