In the asteroid return transfer section, chemical propulsion and electric propulsion are combined to provide thrust for orbital maneuvering, attitude control, etc.; in the transfer section to the main - belt comet, the electric propulsion system provides thrust for orbital maneuvering. Considering the characteristic that the distance between the detector and the sun changes in a large range from 0.89 AU to 2.5 AU during the entire working cycle of electric propulsion, the power provided by the spacecraft to the electric propulsion changes from 3.7 KW to 0.5 KW.

For example, considering the characteristic that the distance between the detector and the sun changes in a large range from 0.89 AU to 2.5 AU, the power provided by the spacecraft to the electric propulsion changes from 3.7 KW to 0.5 KW. The power of the spacecraft is constrained. How to maximize the use of the spacecraft power and select the most suitable operating point of the electric propulsion for ignition is a problem to be solved.

[0087] 1. Power prediction model of multi-operating point electric propulsion system

[0088] The electric propulsion system includes an electric propulsion control unit (EPCU), a pressure regulation module (PRM), a flow control module (XFC), a power supply processing unit (PPU), and an electric thruster (IT). In terms of power transfer: the electric propulsion control unit provides driving power for the pressure regulation module and the flow control module; the power supply processing unit supplies power to the electric thruster; the power flow of the electric propulsion system is shown in Figure 1 .

[0090] P EPS is the total power of the electric propulsion system;

[0091] P EPCU输入 is the power of the electric propulsion control unit;

[0092] P PPU输入 is the power of the power supply processing unit;

For a multi-operating-point electric propulsion system, the gas supply parameters at each operating point are regulated by a pressure closed-loop and a flow closed-loop, and the required power is the same. The power prediction model of the electric propulsion control unit is as follows:

[0095] P EPCU输入 = P EPCU静态 + (P PRM + P XFC ) / (η EPCU - η EPCULt ) (2)

[0096] P EPCU静态 is the static power of the EPCU when the pressure regulation module and the flow control module are not working;

[0105] P ITj is the rated power of the thruster at the jth operating point;

[0106] P ITj额定 is the rated power of the thruster at the jth operating point;

[0107] P ITj补偿 is the compensation power required for the performance degradation of the thruster at the jth operating point;

[0108] Similarly, when the PPU powers the thruster, the power losses at each operating point in the high-voltage cable are also different, usually considered in a certain proportion, and the proportionality coefficient is α 电缆系数 .

[0109] The power prediction model of the power processing unit is established as follows:

[0110] P PPU输入 =

[0111] P PPU静态 +

[0118] η PPUjLt is the efficiency reduction of the PPU at the jth operating point due to the running time and device aging.

[0119] After power prediction modeling for each module of the electric propulsion system, substituting equations (2) and (4) into (1), the detailed power model of the electric propulsion system is obtained as follows:

[0120] P EPS = P EPCU输入 + P PPU输入 (5)

[0121] = P EPCU静态 +(P PRM + P XFC ) / (η EPCU - η EPCULt )+ P PPU静态

[0122] +(PITj额定 +P ITj补偿 )*(1 + α IT系数 +α PPU系数 +α 电缆系数 ) / (η PPUj -η PPUjLt )

[0123] During the electric propulsion ignition process, the actual ignition power P of the electric propulsion can be calculated by using the telemetry of the bus voltage and current of the electric propulsion control unit and the telemetry of the bus voltage and current of the power processing unit. 电推实际点火功率 :

[0124] P 电推实际点火功率 = P EPCU实际输入 +P PPU实际输入 (6)

[0125] = U EPCU母线电压 *I EPCU母线电流 +U PPU母线电压 *I PPU母线电流
