Abstract

The invention provides an electrical insulation structure for a Hall thruster air supply pipeline and relates to the field of electrical insulation of electric thrusters. By the adoption of the electrical insulation structure for the Hall thruster air supply pipeline, the problems that in the prior art, an insulation failure of the outer side of a gas circuit insulator of a Hall thruster is caused by the flashover mechanism of a vacuum insulation edge surface and an insulation failure of the inner side of the insulator is caused by the low-pressure breakdown mechanism are solved. According to the electrical insulation structure for the Hall thruster air supply pipeline, the cross section of a ceramic insulator is shaped like the Chinese character 'shan', the outer surface of the ceramic insulator in of a cylindrical structure, the middle end of the ceramic insulator is of a convex groove structure, and by the adoption of the structure, the length of a creepage channel can be greatly increased in a limited space, and the degree of impact of the creepage channel by spatial plasmas under the action of an electric field of an electrode is decreased; and meanwhile, a gas distributor pipeline is wrapped in the ceramic insulator, bombardment of the insulator edge surface in the position which is high in potential and high in electric field intensity is reduced, and accordingly the insulation strength of the vacuum edge surface flashover resistance is improved.

Example Embodiment

[0018] Specific implementation mode 1: refer to Figure 1 to Figure 4 To specifically describe this embodiment, the electrical insulation structure for the Hall thruster gas supply pipeline described in this embodiment includes a gas distributor pipeline 1, a ceramic insulator 2 and a metal port 3 for a storage and supply system.
[0019] The cross section of the ceramic insulator 2 is a "mountain" type structure, and the outer surface of the ceramic insulator 2 is a cylindrical structure, and the middle end of the ceramic insulator 2 is a convex groove structure,
[0020] The metal port 3 of the storage and supply system is wrapped at the bottom of the ceramic insulator 2, the groove structure of the gas distributor pipeline 1 is connected with the convex groove structure of the ceramic insulator 2, and the ceramic insulator 2 wraps the gas distributor pipeline 1 inside,
[0021] The gas distributor pipeline 1, the ceramic insulator 2 and the inner cavity of the metal port 3 of the storage and supply system are connected,
[0022] The gas distributor pipeline 1 is used to connect the high potential gas supply pipeline interface, and the metal port 3 of the storage and supply system is used to connect the low potential gas supply pipeline interface.
[0023] In this embodiment, the two ends of the "mountain" type ceramic insulator 2 are respectively connected to the gas distributor pipeline 1 and the metal port 3 of the storage and supply system with different potentials. The "mountain" shape design can effectively extend the creepage distance between the two electrodes, reduce the impact of space plasma on the creepage channel under the action of the electric field, and then improve the dielectric strength of the outer surface of the insulator.
[0024] The gas distributor pipeline 1 is enclosed by the periphery of the "mountain" type insulator to reduce the bombardment of the insulator along the surface of the insulator at high potential and high electric field strength by the charged particles in the plasma space, thereby reducing the development of the "vacuum insulation surface flashover" mechanism The process of initial electron generation increases the dielectric strength.
[0025] The metal port 3 of the storage and supply system is connected to the insulator in a "wrapped" way, so that the high electric field intensity distribution is concentrated at the edge of the metal gas supply pipeline outside the insulator, and finally the electric field intensity distribution inside the insulator is effectively reduced. "The insulation failure mechanism effectively improves the insulation strength.
[0026] The gas distributor line 1 may also be called the cathode gas supply line. When the gas distributor pipeline 1 is working, it is a high level.
