Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of satellite engineering, and particularly to a satellite multi-physical-field digital twin semi-physical simulation platform. Background Art
[0002] The successful completion of the established tasks of a satellite depends on a variety of on-board devices. However, some on-board devices are very sensitive to environmental factors. Taking temperature as an example, the operating temperature requirement for aerospace-grade electronic components is -55°C to 150°C. Thermal stress and thermal strain will affect the reliability of chip packaging and also cause phenomena such as corrosion, oxidation, and device explosion. Generally speaking, for every 10-degree increase in temperature, the device life is reduced by half. In addition, some on-board payloads also have high temperature requirements. For example, the infrared optical sensor of a remote sensor requires a low-temperature working environment, while the on-board refrigeration system and thermoelectric power generation system need to work under high-temperature conditions. Therefore, ambient temperature, as an important factor, has an important impact on the working performance and life of satellite system components. Real-time monitoring of the on-board temperature field is an important prerequisite for effective on-board thermal control. However, since spacecraft such as satellites need to face frequent thermal cycles during on-orbit operation, coupled with the self-coupled heat generation of components, the satellite thermal environment is very complex, posing a huge challenge to satellite temperature monitoring. In addition, the on-orbit environment of the satellite is extremely complex and changeable, and the influence of multi-physical-field coupling makes it very difficult to accurately characterize the working state of on-board devices, further increasing the difficulty of satellite monitoring.
[0003] As a high-value spacecraft, a satellite has strict requirements for launch mass. Only a limited number of sensors can be arranged on the satellite, making it impossible to accurately characterize the on-board physical field. By establishing a satellite multi-physical-field digital twin model, this problem can be effectively solved to achieve real-time monitoring of the on-board physical field.
[0004] At present, the most important factor restricting the modeling of the satellite multi-physical field digital twin model is the lack of real in-orbit operation data. In existing research, numerical calculation methods or hardware-in-the-loop simulation experiments are usually used to obtain data. Common numerical calculation methods include the finite element method, the finite volume method, the finite difference method, etc. However, traditional numerical calculation methods have their own drawbacks. For example, the finite element method is difficult to handle complex equations and large-scale solution problems, the high-order calculation method of the finite volume method is very complex, and the finite difference method is not flexible enough when dealing with complex grids. Moreover, the coupling of multi-physical fields further exacerbates the difficulty of numerical simulation. Therefore, the physical field simulation accuracy obtained based on numerical calculation methods cannot meet the requirements for accurate modeling of the satellite multi-physical field digital twin model. In addition, satellite design, manufacturing, and operation and maintenance are a process of continuous iterative optimization. Changing any model parameter will invalidate the previous numerical calculation results, and the huge calculation cost brought about by this is also unacceptable. The hardware-in-the-loop simulation technology can effectively improve the development accuracy and efficiency of digital satellites by introducing a highly reliable software / hardware ground experimental environment. However, the simulation environments of existing hardware-in-the-loop simulation platforms mostly use simple steady-state settings, ignoring the impact of environmental changes under real operating conditions and are not applicable to the hardware-in-the-loop simulation of satellites in complex and changing in-orbit environments. The designs of existing hardware-in-the-loop simulation platforms are mostly designed for one or a few specific working conditions and cannot be flexibly extended for multi-working conditions and multi-sizes, and cannot meet the requirements of the satellite digital twin hardware-in-the-loop simulation for complex environments, multi-scale levels, and multi-working conditions.

[0062] Furthermore, referring to Figure 3 , in an embodiment of the present invention, the thermal layout board 2 includes: a first printed circuit board 21 and a second printed circuit board 22;
[0063] A plurality of pluggable pins are provided on the upper surface of the first printed circuit board 21 for installing thermal components and electronic components, and the lower surface of the first printed circuit board 21 is used to connect the distributed measurement module;

[0068] In an embodiment of the present invention, a snap-fastening layer is fixedly welded on the upper surface of the second printed circuit board 22. The first printed circuit board 21 and the second printed circuit board 22 are connected through the snap-fastening layer, thereby connecting the thermal components and electronic components on the first printed circuit board 21 to the logic control layer.
[0069] Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, the thermal components include:

[0071] A wireless communication unit that is respectively connected to the coordination control unit and the control module;
[0072] A coordination control unit, which is respectively connected to a power consumption unit and a wireless communication unit, is used to adjust the heating power of the power consumption unit according to the control instruction received from the control module by the wireless communication unit, and send the status information of the heat component to the control module through the wireless communication unit.
[0073] Since some components on the satellite PCB board will generate heat during operation, while some components will not generate heat during operation, but may also affect the overall temperature field of the satellite PCB board. In an embodiment of the present invention, for the heat-generating components on the satellite PCB board, heat components are used for simulation, and for the components that do not generate heat but may affect the temperature field, the same electronic components are used for simulation, which can accurately simulate the component layout and component working status on the satellite PCB board. Moreover, by adjusting the heat components and electronic components inserted on the heat layout board 2, the simulation of satellite PCB boards with various different layout methods can also be realized.
[0074] Among them, in order to be able to simulate various different types of heat-generating components, there are multiple types of heat components, each type of heat component includes at least one, and the corresponding size and heating power adjustment range of each type of heat component are different.
[0075] In an embodiment of the present invention, the status information of the heat component at least includes: the relative position information of the heat component on the heat layout board 2, the heat component ID information, the actual energy consumption situation of the power consumption unit, and the heating power.
[0076] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention, the power consumption unit can be composed of multiple switch groups and multiple energy-consuming components through series-parallel connection. Specifically, a switch group is connected in parallel with an energy-consuming component to obtain a parallel circuit, and multiple parallel circuits are connected in series in sequence. When the power consumption unit is in use, the on-off of the switch group can be controlled to control the number of energy-consuming components connected to the circuit, thereby realizing the adjustment and control of the heating power of the power consumption unit.
[0077] Among them, the energy-consuming component can adopt a resistor, and the on-off of the switch group is controlled to control the resistance value of the resistor connected to the circuit, thereby realizing the adjustment and control of the heating power.
[0078] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention, the wireless communication unit adopts Zigbee, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, UWB or NFC wireless communication technology.

[0080] Further, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in an embodiment of the present invention, the distributed measurement module includes: a pressure sensor 51 and a temperature sensor 52;

[0082] There are multiple temperature sensors 52, and the multiple temperature sensors 52 are mounted on the thermal layout board 2 in a way of equidistant array distribution, and are used to measure the temperatures of multiple points on the thermal layout board 2.
[0083] Specifically, on the basis of the structure of the thermal layout board 2 set above, the temperature sensor 52 is mounted on the lower surface of the first printed circuit board 21.
[0084] Optionally, the temperature sensor 52 can adopt a thermistor or a thermocouple.
[0085] Further, referring to Figure 6 , in an embodiment of the present invention, the infrared thermal imaging module includes: a bracket 61 and an infrared camera 62;

[0087] On the basis of the structure of the thermal layout board 2 set above, the infrared camera 62 faces the upper surface of the first printed circuit board 21.
[0088] The working principle of the infrared camera 62 in an embodiment of the present invention is to detect and measure radiation, so that the infrared radiation energy distribution pattern of the measured target is reflected on the photosensitive element of the infrared camera 62, thereby obtaining an infrared thermal image, and establishing the mutual connection between radiation and surface temperature.
[0089] Since common circuit board faults are generally short circuits, open circuits, or poor contacts, in the case of a short circuit, the current in the circuit board is larger than normal, and the corresponding components have a temperature rise. Its infrared thermal image is significantly abnormal compared to normal; in the case of an open circuit or poor contact, the current value passing through the components is almost zero. At this time, the temperature of the corresponding components is lower than when they are working normally, and its infrared thermal image is also significantly abnormal compared to normal. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present invention, by using an infrared camera 62 to perform infrared thermal imaging on the thermal layout board 2, the infrared thermal images corresponding to the thermal layout board 2 and its components are obtained in real time, and the working state of the thermal layout board 2 can be monitored in real time, and the corresponding fault points can be quickly determined when the thermal layout board 2 fails.
[0090] Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, the control module includes: a host computer and a server;
[0091] The host computer is communicatively connected to the server. The host computer is respectively connected to the thermal simulation chamber 1, the thermal layout board 2, the thermal components, the distributed measurement module, and the infrared thermal imaging module through a control bus, and is used to control the working modes and working parameters of the thermal simulation chamber 1, the thermal layout board 2, the thermal components, the distributed measurement module, and the infrared thermal imaging module according to the control information sent by the server;
[0092] The server is communicatively connected to the thermal simulation chamber 1, the distributed measurement module, and the infrared thermal imaging module, and the server can be communicatively connected to external devices, and is used to collect, store, and process the bulkhead temperature data of the thermal simulation chamber 1, the pressure data and temperature data measured by the distributed measurement module, the infrared image data obtained by the infrared thermal imaging module, and to send control information to the host computer.
[0093] Among them, the external device is, for example, a computer. The user can perform information interaction with the server through the computer, so as to realize the use and control of the hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform.
[0094] Optionally, a distributed CEPH distributed file system can be set on the server, and the CEPH distributed file system is used to store the relevant parameters and data of the hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform.
[0095] Further, in an embodiment of the present invention, system software is set on the server, and the system software is provided with an HMI interface, and the HMI interface can display and analyze the stored data according to user requirements.
[0096] Specifically, HTML and CSS3 technologies can be used to develop the HMI interface of the system software. A user login window can be set on the HMI interface. After the user logs in, the HMI interface can display the relevant data in the form of charts and other forms according to user requirements, and perform analysis and processing of the relevant data, such as performing steady-state analysis of the temperature field.
[0097] Among them, the system software can set different usage permissions for different user levels and supports the modification of user permissions.
[0098] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the control of the hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform, the HMI interface of the system software is also provided with display windows and modification windows for the working modes and working parameters of each component of the hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform.
