Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of aircraft technology, and in particular to a method and device for discharging residual propellant of a reentry vehicle. Background Art

[0002] For spacecraft that need to re-enter the atmosphere from orbit, their flight in the atmosphere is an unpowered gliding flight. The lift and drag coefficients determined by the shape of the spacecraft and the mass of the spacecraft jointly determine the flight envelope and range capability of the spacecraft. Therefore, for a spacecraft that uses an integrated design to travel between the earth and the sky, the mass of the remaining propellant needs to be controlled within a certain accuracy range before leaving orbit. Due to the uncertainty of the duration and mission of the spacecraft's on-orbit cruise, the mass of the remaining propellant before completing the on-orbit mission and preparing to leave orbit and return is also uncertain, so the demand for propellant emissions should be determined according to actual conditions.

[0003] To ensure the efficiency of propellant discharge, the propellant consumption is usually achieved by turning on the orbit control engine, and the orbit control engine startup process will inevitably affect the spacecraft orbit. If you want to have a smaller impact on the orbit, you can adjust the inclination and perform a mutually offset orbit control at the ascending and descending nodes to complete the discharge of the remaining propellant. However, for reentry requirements, it is often accompanied by adjustments to the subsatellite point position.

[0004] Therefore, in response to the above problems, there is an urgent need for an orbital propellant discharge method that can meet the fuel discharge requirements of the aircraft and complete the position adjustment requirements of the sub-satellite point. Summary of the invention

If so, the propellant is discharged according to the current orbital control speed increment, the number of pulse accelerations and the orbital revolution between different pulse accelerations; if not, the number of pulse accelerations and the orbital revolution between different pulse accelerations are increased, the solution is iteratively solved again, and the verification is verified again using the verification conditions until the verification conditions are met.

[0018] The semi-major axis change is used to express additional changes in geographic longitude.

[0019] In a possible design, the relationship expression between the additional change in geographic longitude, the number of orbits between different pulse accelerations of the spacecraft, and the orbital control speed increments of different pulse accelerations includes:

[0041] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0042] The specific implementation of the above concept is described below.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for discharging remaining propellant of a reentry vehicle, the method comprising:

[0044] Step 100, determining the relationship between the propellant discharge amount and the total orbital control velocity increment;

[0045] Step 102, determining an additional change in the geographic longitude of the ascending node of the aircraft according to the ground track adjustment requirement of the aircraft sub-satellite point;

[0046] Step 104, establishing a relationship expression between the additional change in geographic longitude, the number of orbits between different pulse accelerations of the aircraft, and the orbit control velocity increment of different pulse accelerations;

[0047] Step 106, with the number of pulse accelerations and the interval of one revolution between different pulse accelerations as conditions, the relational expression is iteratively solved to obtain the orbital control speed increment of each pulse acceleration and the specific number of revolutions of each pulse, and it is determined whether each orbital control speed increment meets the verification conditions. If so, the propellant is discharged according to the current orbital control speed increment, the number of pulse accelerations and the number of revolutions between different pulse accelerations; if not, the number of pulse accelerations and the number of revolutions between different pulse accelerations are increased, the solution is iteratively solved again, and the verification is performed again using the verification conditions until the verification conditions are met.

[0048] The solution provided by the present invention can not only meet the fuel discharge requirements of the aircraft, but also complete the propellant discharge method in the orbital plane to meet the requirements of adjusting the position of the sub-satellite point. The method first obtains the orbit control speed increment requirement based on the propellant discharge requirement, and then provides an orbit control pulse solution method with the least number of pulses and the fastest completion of the task based on the east-west adjustment requirements of the geographical longitude of the sub-satellite point.

[0049] Described below Figure 1 How the various steps are performed.

[0050] First, with respect to step 100 , the relationship between the propellant discharge amount and the total orbital control velocity increment is determined.

[0051] Specifically, the aircraft dry weight M0, the aircraft remaining fuel m fuel , Specific impulse I sp , thrust F, the relationship between propellant consumption and orbit control engine speed increment:

[0052]

[0053] It can be obtained that if the fuel mass to be discharged is Δm, the corresponding total speed increment of the orbital control engine is ΔV:

[0054]

[0055] The calculation of the velocity increment using out-of-plane orbital control discharge is relatively simple. When the propellant discharge velocity increment ΔV is determined each time, the velocity increment with an absolute value of ΔV / 2 can be used at the ascending node and the descending node to cancel the inclination effect. This method will not be described in detail.

[0056] Then, with respect to step 102, in one embodiment of the present invention, step 102 includes:

[0057] According to the nodal period of orbital motion and the precession rate of the ascending node right ascension, an expression for the change of geographic longitude is established;

[0058] According to the first-order partial derivative, the precession rate of the geographical longitude of the ascending node in one orbital period is solved to obtain the change of the semi-major axis;

[0059] The semi-major axis change is used to express additional changes in geographic longitude.

[0060] Specifically, the fuel discharge in the plane needs to be combined with the adjustment requirements of the sub-satellite point trajectory. For orbital reentry vehicles, the sub-satellite point adjustment requirements can be described as the adjustment requirements for the precession of the geographic longitude of the ascending node. For a fixed orbit, the orbit has an ideal change in the geographic longitude of the ascending node per revolution, denoted by λ N The ground track adjustment requirement is described as the additional change in the geographic longitude of the ascending node, Δλ N .

[0061] The nominal orbital semi-major axis is a0, the orbital eccentricity is e, and the orbital inclination is i. Then the change in geographical longitude of the sub-satellite point in one circle is λ N for:

[0062]

[0063] In the above formula:

[0064] is the precession rate of the ascending node's right ascension;

[0065] is the nodal period of orbital motion;

[0066] The constant J2 = 0.001082 is the gravitational perturbation coefficient of the Earth, μ = 3.986006 × 10 5 km 3 / s 2 is the gravitational constant, R e =6378.145km is the average radius of the earth.

[0067] For propellant discharge within the orbital plane, ignoring the orbital attenuation caused by the atmosphere, propellant discharge within the orbital plane can be completed by raising or lowering the orbit at the same latitude angle within the orbital plane at intervals of N full cycles.

[0068] According to the first-order partial derivative, the precession rate of the geographic longitude of the ascending node and the semi-major axis of the orbit are solved for one orbital period.

[0069]

[0070] The semi-major axis change Δa can be obtained, and the corresponding change in the geographic longitude of the ascending node after one circle Δλ N for:

[0071]

[0072] Regarding step 104, in one embodiment of the present invention, step 104 includes:

[0073] expressing the semi-major axis change using an orbit control velocity increment;

[0074] Using the orbit control speed increment to express the additional change in geographic longitude, a speed and longitude change expression is obtained;

[0075] The relationship expression is determined according to the velocity longitude variation expression and the number of revolutions between different pulse accelerations of the aircraft.

[0076] Specifically, the change in the semi-major axis is related to the orbit control velocity increment ΔV t The relationship between can be approximated by a small pulse:

[0077]

[0078] In the above formula, n is the orbital angular velocity.

[0079] Then the speed increment ΔV can be obtained t The relationship between the change in the geographical longitude of a circle of ascending nodes is as follows:

[0080]

[0081] The first pulse execution cycle is recorded as the M1th cycle, the second pulse execution cycle is recorded as the M2th cycle, and so on. The Nth pulse execution cycle is recorded as the Mth cycle. N To meet the phase modulation accuracy of the sub-satellite point, the relationship expression needs to be satisfied after N pulses:

[0082]

[0083] For step 106, if N orbit control pulses are designed to discharge propellant, and the orbital shape and the control requirements for the geographical longitude of the sub-satellite point need to be guaranteed after the discharge is completed, the constraints of the N discharge pulses can be written as follows:

[0084]

[0085] Since the propellant discharge is not an exact solution, the constraints are relaxed as follows:

[0086]

[0087] Where ΔV k2 A positive number designed to satisfy the propellant discharge constraint.

[0088] Further solving for the in-plane emission pulse:

[0089] |Δλ N |≥0, firstly, it can be designed as two pulse emissions, with an interval of M cycles between the two pulse emissions. The initial value of M is set to 1, and the iterative solution is:

[0090]

[0091] ΔV2=-ΔV1 (4)

[0092] This solution naturally satisfies the constraints of formulas (1) and (2). Substituting ΔV1 and ΔV2 into formula (3) for verification.

[0093] like This means that the amount of emission control completed by the M circle exceeds the emission demand, so set M = M + 1 and calculate formula (4) again. It can be seen that as M increases Gradually decrease, if ΔV1 and ΔV2 can meet the accuracy range of formula (2) and (3), the calculation is completed. The emission form is:

[0094] The execution number of the first pulse is M1, and the execution number of the second pulse is M2=M1+M;

[0095] The two pulses are:

[0096] If the value is M-1, When the value is M, This means that 2 pulses cannot find a feasible solution. Expand it to 3 pulses:

[0097] The execution number of the first pulse is M1, and the execution number of the second pulse is M2=M1+M;

[0098] In the above formula, when M satisfies M-1, When the value is M

[0099] Let the third pulse execution cycle be M3=M2+N, and initialize N=1;

[0100] The three pulses are:

[0101]

[0102] The three pulses naturally satisfy formulas (1) and (2). If they cannot satisfy the constraints of formula (3), then N = N + 1, and solve formula (5) again. As N increases, the absolute values ​​of ΔV2 and ΔV3 will further decrease. The absolute value of also gradually decreases until the constraint of formula (3) is satisfied.
