Abstract

The present invention relates to a Mars environment simulation experiment device and an experiment method. The experiment device comprises: a vacuum cabin body for providing a vacuum environment; a vacuum control unit connected with the vacuum cabin body for forming a vacuum in the vacuum cabin body Environment; a humidity control unit, comprising a temperature-controlled heater, an airtight container placed on the temperature-controlled heater, and a gas configuration part communicated with the airtight container, deionized water is contained in the airtight container, and the The gas configuration part communicates with the vacuum cabin body; the gas supply unit communicated with the gas configuration part is used to provide Martian atmosphere. The invention can truly simulate the environmental atmosphere, humidity, pressure, temperature and ultraviolet radiation conditions on the surface of Mars, and at the same time realize the precise control of the above-mentioned environmental humidity, pressure, temperature and ultraviolet radiation on the surface of Mars, and can also realize the electric field environment on the surface of Mars The simulation provides a comprehensive experimental platform for Mars environment-related research, with a wide range of applications.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of planetary and space environment simulation. Specifically, the invention relates to a Mars environment simulation experiment device and an experiment method, which are used for simulating the surface environment conditions of Mars, and are suitable for establishing a spectral library of simulated samples in the Martian environment, Explore the traces of life on Mars, analyze the stability of samples in the Martian environment, and calibrate Mars exploration payloads. Background technique [0002] Deep space exploration will be an important way for human beings to develop and utilize space resources, and to innovate in space science and technology. As one of the closest celestial bodies to Earth, Mars has become an important target for deep space exploration. Due to the different environments of Mars and Earth, it is necessary to carry out research work on its environmental characteristics, mainly involvin...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Since the existing Mars environment simulator cannot realize the simulation of the temperature and precise humidity control in the middle and low latitudes of Mars, the Mars-related research such as the thermal dynamics experiment of simulating Mars samples, the study of Mars life, and the calibration experiment of Mars exploration payloads all need to simulate Real temperature on the surface of Mars, ultraviolet radiation environment on the surface of Mars and strict humidity control

In addition, there may be electrical discharges on the surface of Mars, which may affect the quality of in-situ detection data, the electronic equipment of the Mars rover, and the evolution of minerals on the Martian surface, etc.
