A power system for a rocket-powered Mars transport aircraft

Abstract

The invention provides a power system of a rocket-powered Mars transport aircraft, comprising a main engine, an energy sub-system, an attitude control sub-system, a boosting sub-system and a variablethrust sub-system. The power subsystem includes an injector, an igniter and a thrust chamber. The energy subsystem comprises a battery, a high-pressure gas cylinder and a storage tank, wherein the high-pressure gas cylinder and the storage tank are communicated with each other through pipelines, and the storage tank and the injector are communicated with each other through pipelines; The attitudecontrol subsystem comprises a plurality of attitude control engines, wherein each attitude control engine is annularly spaced on the side of a Mars transport aircraft, and a high-pressure gas cylinderis connected with each attitude control engine through pipelines. The attitude control subsystem comprises a plurality of attitude control engines, wherein each attitude control engine is annularly spaced on the side of a Mars transport aircraft. By sharing a set of high pressure cylinders with the attitude control engine and the tank, The structure of the power system is simplified, the tank pressure is reduced, the tank mass is lightened, and the pressure of the thrust chamber is increased by boosting the pressure of the boosting sub-system. The attitude adjustment function of the power system is realized by the attitude control sub-system, and the variable thrust sub-system is realized by the variable thrust sub-system, so the power system has the variable thrust function. The invention is applied to the field of planetary surface flight.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of planetary surface flight, in particular to a rocket-powered Mars transporter power system. Background technique [0002] The detection results over the years have shown that water ice, carbon dioxide, and a small amount of oxygen exist on Mars, which may provide support for the long-term survival of humans on Mars. At present, all major aerospace countries in the world are actively carrying out Mars exploration programs, and China has also announced that it will launch a Mars exploration mission in 2020. It is only a matter of time before human beings ascend the fire, and after ascending the fire, they will face many new challenges. The efficient detection of unknown areas, the transportation of materials between bases, and the movement of personnel must all be solved. The key to solving these problems is to have reliable delivery vehicles. It can be seen that the development of Mars transport aircraft is of grea...
