Abstract

The invention relates to a capillary tube applied to a monopropellant thruster and belongs to the technical field of monopropellant thrusters. The outer diameter of the capillary tube ranges from 0.2 mm to 0.7 mm and the wall thickness ranges from 0.05 mm to 0.3 mm. The capillary tube comprises a left straight tube segment, a first arc segment, a second arc segment, a left transition straight tube segment, a third arc segment, a right transition straight tube segment, a fourth arc segment, a fifth arc segment and a right straight tube segment. By the adoption of the capillary tube, the flow resistance of the monopropellant thruster can be controlled precisely by selecting the total length of the capillary tube before the capillary tube is bent, so that the thrust of the monopropellant thruster is controlled precisely; and the thermal resistance of the capillary tube is increased, the amount of heat conducted to the upstream position from a hot end component when the monopropellant thruster is ignited is lowered, and the work safety of the monopropellant thruster is improved.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a capillary used in a single-component thruster, in particular to a 360° ultra-fine capillary used in a single-component thruster, belonging to the technical field of a single-component thruster, and the outer diameter of the capillary is 0.2mm ~0.7mm, the wall thickness is 0.05mm~0.3mm. Background technique

[0002] The single-element thruster is one of the main power units for spacecraft attitude and orbit control, and has a wide range of applications. With the improvement of spacecraft control accuracy requirements and the development trend of its own miniaturization, it is required that the monolithic thruster be miniaturized, and the thrust level is even lower than 200mN. Mono-element thrusters usually use capillary tubes as elements for flow delivery and pressure drop control. The role of capillary tubes in the thruster is as a flow channel for delivering propellant from the upstream to the combustion chamber, an...
