[0002] Sealing performance is one of the key technical parameters of spacecraft. On-orbit leak detection is an effective technical way to detect and confirm the sealing performance of spacecraft during on-orbit operation, and is an important link to ensure the safe and stable operation of spacecraft during on-orbit operation. During the on-orbit operation of spacecraft, it will be affected by various factors such as vibration, vacuum, high and low temperature alternation, micrometeorites and space debris. These factors may cause the cabin and sealing structure to loosen, deform, surface oxidation, corrosion, damage and even perforation, thereby causing leakage. During the on-orbit operation of a spacecraft, any tiny leak may have a significant impact on its performance and even endanger the lives of astronauts. Therefore, on-orbit leak detection is a necessary means to ensure the safe operation of spacecraft.

Ultrasonic, static pressure change, acoustic emission and other leak detection methods have been applied on-orbit and have achieved certain results. For the needs of high-sensitivity real-time leak rate detection of the sealing surface of the on-orbit filling device, on-orbit sealing testing of small and medium-sized loads, and leakage detection of detachable flanges and narrow spaces, strict requirements are imposed on the real-time performance of the leak detection method, low resource consumption, and environmental adaptability.

[0050] In this specification, an on-orbit leak detection method based on a miniature vacuum sensor is provided. This specification also relates to an on-orbit leak detection device based on a miniature vacuum sensor, a computing device, and a computer-readable storage medium, which are described in detail one by one in the following embodiments.

[0051] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flow chart of an on-orbit leak detection method based on a micro vacuum sensor provided according to an embodiment of the present specification is shown, which specifically includes the following steps.

[0052] Step 101: Determine the leak detection mode and obtain the current vacuum degree signal.

[0053] In one possible implementation, determining the leak detection mode includes: obtaining the on-orbit working status of the spacecraft, and determining the leak detection mode based on the on-orbit working status of the spacecraft; wherein the leak detection mode includes a loading mode and a working mode, the loading mode is used when the spacecraft working medium is in the loading process, and the working mode is used when the spacecraft working medium is in the loading state.

[0054] In actual applications, before implementing the method of this scheme, a miniature vacuum sensor and a vacuum gauge are installed in the target area where leak detection is required. After the spacecraft is launched into the predetermined working space, a preset leak detection mode is selected according to measurement needs, and the vacuum gauge is turned on to collect and detect real-time vacuum degree signals.

[0055] Specifically, the target area where the micro vacuum sensor is installed is a non-sealed area, and if the working medium leaks, it will enter the target area. The leaked medium will cause a change in the vacuum degree of the target area, that is, an increase in the pressure value, and will enter the outer vacuum environment through a preset leakage channel. The conductance of the preset leakage channel is LD, which can be obtained by calculation or ground simulation test.

[0056] Furthermore, a preset leak detection mode is selected: the leak detection mode is selected according to the spacecraft's on-orbit working status and leak detection requirements. The leak detection mode is divided into two modes: loading mode and working mode. The loading mode means that the working medium has a loading process during the leak detection process, and the working mode means that the spacecraft's working medium is always in a loading state. After determining the leak detection mode, the vacuum gauge is turned on and the vacuum degree is measured by a micro vacuum sensor to obtain a real-time vacuum degree signal p.

[0057] The embodiments of this specification use a miniature vacuum sensor with low power consumption and small size as a leak detection vacuum signal acquisition instrument, which consumes little on-orbit resources of the spacecraft and can work in a space vacuum environment. The adaptability to the space environment and the installation adaptability are greatly improved compared to traditional leak detectors. It can solve the problem of detecting the sealing performance of on-orbit filling interfaces, sealing flanges, pipe joints, etc. of spacecraft when working on-orbit, and improve the safety level of spacecraft operation on-orbit.

[0058] Step 102: Determine a leakage signal based on the leak detection mode and the current vacuum signal.

[0059] In actual applications, during the detection process, combined with the working status of the spacecraft, the vacuum signal of the target area is compared with the preset vacuum background value, or the vacuum background value before working loading, to identify and judge the leak in the target area and generate a leakage signal.

[0060] In a possible implementation, determining the leakage signal based on the leakage detection mode and the current vacuum signal includes: determining a vacuum signal threshold based on the leakage detection mode; and determining the leakage signal based on the current vacuum signal and the vacuum signal threshold.

[0061] In practical applications, the judgment process of whether there is leakage is as follows: for the loading mode, the vacuum signal p after the working medium is loaded ZH Greater than p before working medium loading ZQWhen the vacuum signal is greater than the preset vacuum signal p, a leakage signal is generated, otherwise a no leakage signal is generated. For the working mode, the working medium is always in the loading state, and the real-time vacuum signal p of the target area is greater than the preset vacuum signal p YS A leakage signal is generated when the value is 0, and a non-leakage signal is generated when the value is 0.

[0062] The sensor installation space of the embodiment of this specification is a non-sealed structure. If the working medium leaks, it will enter the target area. The leaked medium will cause the vacuum degree of the target area to change, that is, the pressure value will increase, and the leakage response will be rapid. At the same time, due to the use of a non-sealed structure, there is no need to design a separate sealing structure for the vacuum sensor installation space, so the leak detection method is simple and has high economic efficiency.

[0063] Step 103: judging the leakage state based on the leakage signal and the target vacuum signal within the target time period, and determining the leakage model signal.

[0064] In practical applications, by detecting a plurality of vacuum signal increments at equal time intervals, the leakage model is identified according to the vacuum increments and a leakage model signal is generated.

[0065] In one possible implementation, when the leak detection mode is the loading mode, a leakage state judgment is performed based on the leakage signal and the target vacuum signal within the target time period, and a leakage model signal is determined, including: in the presence of a leakage signal, a time constant is determined based on the target area volume and the conductance of the leakage channel; at least two target vacuum signals are collected within the target time period based on the time constant; the leakage state is judged based on the at least two target vacuum signals, and a leakage model signal is determined; wherein the leakage model signal includes a continuously increasing leakage model signal, a stable leakage model signal, and a decreasing leakage model signal.

[0066] In actual applications, when there is a leak, the leakage model identification process in the loading mode is as follows: the target area volume V is divided by the preset leakage channel conductance LD to obtain the time constant t, and after 5t time has passed since the working medium was loaded in step 2, two real-time vacuum signals are collected. The time interval between the two collections is within the time interval of t and 3t. If the second vacuum signal P2 is 5% or more than 5% greater than the first vacuum signal P1, an increase leakage model signal is generated. If the second vacuum signal P2 is in the range of 0.95 times to 1.05 times the first vacuum signal P1, a stable leakage model signal is generated. If the second vacuum signal P2 is less than 0.95 times the first vacuum signal P1, a decrease leakage model signal is generated.

[0067] In one possible implementation, when the leak detection mode is the working mode, the leakage state is judged based on the leakage signal and the target vacuum signal within the target time period, and the leakage model signal is determined, including: when there is a leakage signal, a preset vacuum signal is determined; the target vacuum signal within the target time period is compared with the preset vacuum signal to determine a comparison result; when the comparison result continues to increase, an increase leakage model signal is determined; when the comparison result is that the target vacuum signal within the target time period is greater than the preset vacuum signal times the target coefficient, and the target vacuum signal remains unchanged, a stable leakage model signal is determined; when the comparison result continues to decrease, a decrease leakage model signal is determined.

[0068] In actual applications, when there is a leak, the leakage model identification process in the working mode is as follows: after the outer side of the spacecraft reaches a high vacuum environment, the vacuum real-time signal p generated in step 1 is compared with the preset vacuum signal PY. If the vacuum implementation signal p continues to increase, a continuously increasing leakage model signal is generated. If p is greater than a·PY and p remains stable, a is the leakage judgment coefficient, a stable leakage model signal is generated. If the vacuum real-time signal p continues to decrease, a decreasing leakage model signal is generated.

[0069] The leak rate calculation method of the embodiment of this specification provides two modes: whether the working medium is loaded or not, and provides a leak rate calculation method in these two modes, which can cover the leak detection needs of specific target areas of spacecraft. Combining the flow conductance and medium parameters of the sensor installation area and the real-time vacuum signal, the leak rate can be calculated quickly and accurately, and has a small minimum detectable leak rate and high sensitivity.

[0070] Step 104: Determine a leak rate signal based on the leak model signal, and determine a leak detection result based on the leak rate signal.

[0071] In practical applications, based on the detected vacuum signal change value and the generated leakage model signal, the predetermined target area conductance, medium coefficient and other parameters are substituted to calculate and generate a leakage rate signal; further, based on the generated leakage rate signal, the obtained leakage rate signal is compared with the leakage rate threshold to identify whether the generated leakage rate exceeds the standard signal.

[0072] In one possible implementation, determining a leakage rate signal based on a leakage model signal includes: when the leakage model signal is an increasing leakage model signal, obtaining a first vacuum signal before the working medium is loaded and a second vacuum signal after the working medium is loaded; and determining the leakage rate signal based on the first vacuum signal, the second vacuum signal and the conductance of the leakage channel.

[0073] In actual applications, for the loading mode, the vacuum signal P1 before the working medium is loaded and the vacuum signal P2 after loading are obtained, and the difference is made. Then, the preset flow conductance LD of the target area is substituted into the formula Q = (P2-P1) × LD to calculate the leakage rate.

[0074] In a possible implementation, determining the leakage rate signal based on the leakage model signal includes: determining the leakage channel conductance when the leakage model signal is an increasing leakage model signal; and determining the leakage rate signal based on the leakage channel conductance and the current vacuum signal.

[0075] In practical applications, for the working mode, the real-time vacuum signal p of the target area is obtained, and the target area flow conductance LD and the predetermined vacuum signal p are YS Substitute into the formula Q = (pP ys )×LD.

[0076] Further, after obtaining the leak rate Q, the leak rate Q is compared with the preset leak rate threshold Q sy Compare. If Q>Q sy , a leak rate exceeding limit signal is generated. If Q≤Q sy , then a signal that the leakage rate does not exceed the standard is generated. sy With a certain safety margin, Q sy Equal to 0.8·Q0, where Q0 is the leakage rate index of the detection object.

[0077] Furthermore, after the leakage rate exceeds the standard, an alarm or prompt may be issued to enable the staff to perform corresponding operations, such as reducing the pressure of the working medium.

[0078] The leakage model identification of the embodiments of this specification covers three leakage models: a stable leakage model, i.e., the leakage rate remains unchanged; an increasing leakage model, i.e., the leakage rate changes; and a decreasing leakage model, i.e., the leakage rate decreases. This is beneficial for monitoring the leakage development and change trends and providing more comprehensive leakage data for the on-orbit operation management of spacecraft.

[0079] In one possible implementation, see Figure 2 The system corresponding to this solution specifically includes: vacuum degree acquisition module, processing and calculation module, identification and judgment module and comprehensive processing unit. Vacuum degree acquisition module: used for measuring the vacuum degree signal of the target detection area, and sending the signal to the comprehensive processing unit, processing and calculation module and identification and diagnosis module; processing and calculation module: used for analyzing and calculating the real-time vacuum degree signal, and then sending the calculation result to the comprehensive processing unit; identification and diagnosis module receives the real-time vacuum degree signal, identifies and diagnoses to generate leakage signal, leakage model and leakage exceeding standard signal, and sends the signal to the comprehensive processing unit.
