基于环路热管的某空间望远镜辐射制冷系统试验验证

Experiment Verification of Radiant Cooling System of Space Telescope Based on Loop Heat Pipe

  • 摘要: 空间望远镜为实现全方位观测,通常需要变换多个姿态,然而多姿态代表着多变的外热流,这对于舱内仪器的散热是极为不利的。环路热管作为一种具有远距离、大功率传热功能的部件,被广泛利用在航天领域。针对搭载了数台分布式安装的仪器设备且同时工作功耗高达1300 W的某空间望远镜,采用多根长达20 m、单根传热量最大400 W的环路热管进行散热。试验结果证明,环路热管能够实现400 W的传热,且温差为13℃,有效解决航天器内分布式热源的统一热管理。

     

    Abstract: To achieve omnidirectional observation, space telescopes typically require multiple attitude changes. However, such attitude changes lead to complex and variable external heat flows, which are highly detrimental to the heat dissipation of spacecraft instruments. Loop heat pipes are widely used in the aerospace field as components capable of long-distance, high-power heat transfer. For a space telescope equipped with several distributed instruments and operating with a total power consumption of up to 1300 W, multiple loop heat pipes, each 20 m in length and with a maximum heat transfer capacity of 400 W, were used for heat dissipation. Test results demonstrated that the loop heat pipes could transfer 400 W with a temperature difference of 13 ℃, effectively solving the challenge of unified heat management for distributed heat sources in spacecraft.
