Device and method for uninterrupted energy supply for slender impactor inclination detection

Abstract

Uninterruptible energy supply device for slender impactor tilt detection, including rear end, thermoelectric assembly, front end, switching device, controller and sensor; rear end is located outside the rear of the impactor body; front end is located in the impactor body Internal, near the impactor head; the thermoelectric component is located between the front and rear ends, converting the thermal energy between the front and rear ends into electrical energy, thereby providing uninterrupted energy for impactor penetration detection; switching device is used to connect The voltage output terminal of the thermoelectric component is connected to the energy storage unit of the impactor; when the sensor detects sunlight, the controller controls the switch to connect with the voltage output terminal of the front end of the thermoelectric component. When the sensor cannot detect sunlight, the controller controls The switching device is connected with the voltage output terminal at the rear end of the thermoelectric component. The invention also provides an uninterrupted energy supply method. The invention utilizes the thermal energy of the surrounding environment to realize autonomous power supply through thermoelectric conversion, and has low cost and small volume.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an uninterrupted energy supply device and method for the inclination detection of a slender impactor, and belongs to the technical field of energy sources for deep space impactors. Background technique [0002] With the development of space exploration technology, human exploration has gradually moved towards the solar system, and by sending probes to outer planets such as Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, we have explored the mysteries of the farther universe. As the distance from the sun gets farther and farther away, choosing a suitable energy source to power the probe is an important issue in deep space exploration. At present, the commonly used energy sources for deep space exploration include chemical batteries, solar batteries, radioisotope thermoelectric generators, etc. Chemical batteries and solar energy are often used as power sources for production capacity and energy storage to form a power system,...
