Problems solved by technology

At the same time, in order to reduce the number of test sub-samples, more than 8 times the life verification on the ground is often required. Therefore, the total duration of the fatigue life test of a single tank diaphragm will reach several years, which is obviously unacceptable for engineering development.
It can be seen that the conditions for the periodic expansion and contraction of the propellant volume created by electric heating cannot meet the requirements for quickly obtaining the fatigue life of the diaphragm of the metal diaphragm tank

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fatigue life test device for a metal diaphragm of a storage tank used for spacecraft propellants and a method for performing a fatigue life test on the metal diaphragm of the storage tank by using the device. Background technique [0002] The metal diaphragm tank is a commonly used spacecraft propellant tank, which can effectively eliminate the propellant sloshing caused by external disturbance. The metal diaphragm in the storage tank separates the storage tank into two parts, the air chamber and the liquid chamber. The diaphragm is squeezed by the pressurized gas in the air chamber, so that the diaphragm undergoes elastic-plastic deformation and moves in the direction of the liquid chamber. The agent is delivered to the downstream outlet of the storage tank. [0003] When the spacecraft is flying in orbit, it will face the situation that the propulsion system does not need to output propellant for a certain period of time. ...
