Final-stage passivation method for liquid oxygen kerosene of carrier rocket

Abstract

The invention relates to a final-stage passivation method for liquid oxygen kerosene of a carrier rocket. The final-stage passivation method for the liquid oxygen kerosene of the carrier rocket comprises the following steps: installing a main engine passivation electromagnetic valve on a main engine control gas cylinder; firstly, after the final stage of the carrier rocket is separated from a satellite, conducting rocket body attitude adjustment; after rocket body attitude adjustment is completed, conducting maneuvering deorbit; after maneuvering deorbit is completed, discharging a propellant in a liquid oxygen storage tank and a kerosene storage tank through a valve of a main engine; then exhausting and depressurizing a storage tank pressurizing gas cylinder; exhausting and depressurizing a main engine blow-off gas cylinder; controlling gas cylinder exhausting and depressurizing through the main engine, and making an auxiliary power system continuously work to conduct attitude control on the final stage, so as to consume a residual attitude control propellant of the auxiliary power system; and finally, making a rocket-borne battery continuously work to supply power to final-stage electrical equipment, so as to consume residual battery power. According to the final-stage passivation method for the liquid oxygen kerosene of the carrier rocket, final-stage rocket passivation treatment can be achieved by adopting the liquid oxygen kerosene propellant, it is ensured that the final-stage rocket is not disintegrated in orbit and has an enough safety distance from a satellite orbit, and no valves or pipelines need to be additionally arranged on the rocket.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of carrier rocket design and relates to a passivation method for the last stage of the carrier rocket with liquid oxygen and kerosene. Background technique [0002] With the increase of human space activities, the number of debris in low-Earth orbit is increasing day by day. If the number reaches saturation, the probability of collision between debris and satellites will increase to an unacceptable range, and may even cause a chain reaction of collisions, which seriously threatens on-orbit operations. Passivation of the final stage of the launch vehicle is an important measure to reduce the generation of space debris for the safety of the spacecraft. [0003] The passivation of the final stage of the launch vehicle is mainly to minimize the possibility of disintegration in orbit by emptying the remaining propellant and high-pressure gas source, exhausting the battery energy, etc. The system has a high degree of corre...
