Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the fields of energy conservation, environmental protection, and aerospace technology, due to the construction of a Martian city. Specifically, it is a Martian city combination technology based on a closed biological cycle quadrangle courtyard module. Its core lies in solving problems such as energy supply, ecological cycle, and transportation during the process of Martian immigration through modular design and ecosystem integration, aiming to achieve the goal of sustainable Martian immigration.

[0002] Bioregenerative Life Support System (BLSS) Definition: The Bioregenerative Life Support System (BLSS) refers to using the natural cycle processes of plants, microorganisms, and animals in a closed system to regenerate air, water, and food to support the long-term survival of humans in a closed environment. This system is an essential part of the Martian colonization plan.

[0003] Current Status of Technology Development: Research by NASA: NASA's research on the Bioregenerative Life Support System (BLSS) has covered technologies in aspects such as air, water, and waste management, providing important references for long-term space missions.

[0004] Recycled Water System: In the Martian environment, water resources will be extremely precious. Therefore, researchers are focusing on developing a water treatment system that can recycle water to ensure the efficient circulation and reuse of water in a closed environment.

[0005] Plant Cultivation and Air Purification: Plants play an important role in the biological cycle. They not only provide oxygen but also help absorb carbon dioxide and filter harmful substances in the air. Similar technologies have been applied in biosphere experiments on Earth.

[0006] Martian Ecological Buildings and Living Modules Modular Design: Due to the special nature of the Martian environment, living and working modules need to be highly modular for easy transportation, assembly, and expansion. The closed biological cycle quadrangle courtyard is a typical modular design and can be used as an independent unit or a combination of multiple units.

[0007] Radiation Protection Design: The Martian surface has no magnetic field and atmosphere protection like Earth, so radiation is a huge problem. Existing research indicates that radiation protection design for Martian habitats is necessary. Radiation protection materials (such as polyurethane foam, stainless steel, and soil) will be used to build Martian living modules.

[0008] Energy and Heating System: The energy supply on Mars mainly relies on solar energy. Although the solar radiation on the Martian surface is lower than that on Earth, it is still sufficient to support the operation of devices such as solar panels. To maintain the temperature, a constant temperature and heating system is one of the key technologies in the design of Martian cities. The constant humidity heating layer and insulation layer in the enclosed biocircular courtyard will help maintain the stability of the indoor environment.

[0009] Circulating Resource System Water Circulation Technology: The recycling and purification of water are important technologies in the design of Martian bases. Existing technologies, such as reverse osmosis and biofilm filtration technologies, can achieve efficient purification and recycling of water.

[0010] Air Purification System: Due to the extremely high concentration of carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere, highly efficient air purification technologies are essential. This includes using the natural purification processes of plants and microorganisms, as well as chemical adsorption and physical filtration technologies to remove harmful gases.

[0011] Waste Management: On Mars, any waste must be strictly processed for recycling or conversion into useful resources. Biodegradation and high-efficiency energy recovery technologies will play important roles in such an environment.

[0012] Automation and Unmanned Technologies Automation Control System: The environment on Mars is extremely harsh and human intervention is limited, so automation technologies are crucial. The mobile units in the courtyard may be equipped with autonomous driving and automation control systems to operate autonomously in different tasks.

[0013] Maglev Rail Transit: As an efficient transportation method, the vacuum pipeline and maglev rail transit system have been tested on Earth and have great potential in the low-gravity environment of Mars. Summary of the Invention

[0014] The present invention discloses an enclosed biocircular courtyard for the construction of Martian cities, belonging to the field of energy-saving and environmental protection aerospace technologies. Through the integrated design of a multi-layer functional structure and an efficient ecological circulation system, this technology provides reliable solutions for energy supply, housing guarantee, ecological circulation, and transportation in the construction of cities in the Martian environment. Technical Solution

[0015] Solar Power Generation Device Equipped with deployable solar panels, which are used to collect solar energy on the Martian surface and convert it into electrical energy to provide energy support for the entire unit. The solar system is designed with an intelligent scheduling function, which can dynamically adjust the power generation efficiency according to the electricity demand and light conditions at different times.

[0016] Computing Workspace This layer includes a computer room and management offices, which are used to support the operation management and scientific computing tasks of the Mars city. The computing power work area is tightly connected to other layer structures through a sealed design, and at the same time integrates a heat recovery system to transport the thermal energy generated by operating equipment to the lower layer for heating. It solves the problems of extremely severe temperature fluctuations on the Mars surface, ranging from -125°C to 20°C, and frequent and intense sandstorms with extremely harsh climate conditions.

[0017] Residential Area and Courtyard The residential area adopts a four-sided enclosed structure with an open courtyard in the middle, which is used to plant cold-resistant plants, absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, providing support for the ecological circulation system. The Mars atmosphere is mainly composed of carbon dioxide (about 96%), and the oxygen content is extremely low. The air pressure on Mars is about 1% of that on Earth, and humans and most equipment cannot operate normally in the Mars atmosphere. They must rely on enclosed spaces to provide oxygen and suitable air pressure. The enclosed space is equipped with an internal circulation water purification system, which can perform multi-stage filtration and purification of domestic water to ensure the efficient circulation of water resources in the system and pollution-free discharge. It solves the problems of oxygen and food resources required for human survival, enabling the Mars city to have a high degree of self-sufficiency.

[0018] Constant Temperature Heating System The thermal energy required by the system comes from solar energy and the computing power work area. A temperature control device is used to adjust the indoor humidity and temperature to ensure a suitable living environment in the residential area.

[0019] . Thermal Insulation Layer The thermal insulation layer uses high-performance adiabatic materials to reduce the impact of extreme temperature differences on the Mars surface on the indoor environment, ensuring energy utilization efficiency and indoor temperature stability.

[0020] . Stainless Steel Plate The external structure uses stainless steel plates to provide strong mechanical support and resist the low air pressure and mechanical impacts on the Mars surface.

[0021] Radiation Protection Layer The radiation protection layer uses a blue crystal film preparation to generate a protective layer, which is used to shield high-energy cosmic rays and solar wind radiation, decompose harmful organic substances and sterilize, so as to ensure the safety of residents and equipment. It solves the practical problems that Mars lacks the protection of the Earth's magnetic field and thick atmosphere, and the levels of cosmic ray and solar wind radiation are much higher than those on Earth.

[0022] Movable Unit The enclosed bio-cyclic quadrangle courtyard contains a movable unit for the following scenarios: Observation and Sampling on the Mars Surface: The unit can be detached from other parts and complete scientific exploration tasks on the Mars surface through autonomous driving technology. Transportation and Connection between Courtyards: When it is necessary for personnel to move from one courtyard to another, this unit can serve as a dynamic transportation module to ensure safe and efficient personnel flow.

[0023] Vacuum pipeline transportation system Courtyards are connected by vacuum pipelines to form an efficient maglev rail transit network. The vacuum pipelines are designed to be streamlined to reduce air flow resistance and are equipped with anti-radiation coatings to adapt to the Martian environment. Maglev trains operate inside the pipelines for efficient transportation of people and materials to support the logistics needs of Martian cities. Construction of Martian cities A modular Martian city is constructed through the combination of multiple enclosed bioregenerative courtyard units. Each unit is connected by the vacuum pipeline transportation system to achieve system integration of energy, ecology, and transportation, providing a stable, safe, and sustainable urban living environment for Martian immigrants. Implementation plan Specific implementation plan

[0024] Example 1: Overall structural design of the courtyard unit This example provides a basic structural design of an enclosed bioregenerative courtyard for constructing a Martian city. The courtyard unit consists of three main levels:

[0025] Top level: Solar power generation device The top level is equipped with retractable solar panels, which can dynamically adjust the area and orientation of the solar panels according to electricity demand through an intelligent scheduling system.

[0026] The solar device adopts a modular design for easy maintenance and replacement. All components are resistant to Martian sandstorms, and the surface is coated with dust-proof materials.

[0027] The generated electricity is distributed to the computing power work area, living area, and urban transportation network through a centralized energy management system to ensure the overall energy supply of the city.

[0028] Second level: Computing power work area The computing power work area includes a computer room and an office area, which are responsible for managing the ecological cycle, energy distribution inside the courtyard unit, and cooperation tasks with other courtyard units.

[0029] The area is equipped with a liquid cooling system that circulates heat to the residential area for heating while reducing the impact of the Martian environment on equipment.

[0030] The planar structure of the computer room and the office area is exactly the same as that of the lower living area, and they are sealed and connected to ensure stability. Its height can be adjusted steplessly according to actual computing power requirements.

[0031] Third level: Living and residential area The living and residential area is composed of modular units of 3 meters × 6 meters. Each unit is spliced to form a four-sided enclosed residence with an open courtyard in the center.

[0032] Cold-resistant plants and crops with high-efficiency photosynthesis are planted in the courtyard, such as vegetables, flowers, and cold-resistant arbors grown in the Mars-improved soil, which are used to absorb carbon dioxide and generate oxygen.

[0033] A water circulation system and air purification equipment are installed in the residential area to ensure the living needs of residents in a closed environment.

[0034] Example 2: Design and operation of the biological cycle system The biological cycle system in the siheyuan unit consists of three parts: water circulation, air purification, and waste treatment:

[0035] Domestic water is purified and reused through a multi-stage filtration device, including processes such as sediment filtration, activated carbon adsorption, reverse osmosis purification, and ultraviolet sterilization.

[0036] The recycled and treated wastewater is used for plant irrigation in the courtyard, further reducing water resource waste.

[0037] The system supports water extraction from the Mars ice layer, prepares oxygen through an electrolysis device, and simultaneously uses the by-product hydrogen for energy conversion.

[0038] Air purification system By combining plant photosynthesis and mechanical filtration, the indoor carbon dioxide concentration and oxygen concentration are dynamically adjusted. Indoor air passes through a HEPA filtration device to remove dust and pollutants, maintaining air quality in the extreme Mars environment.

[0039] Waste treatment system Organic waste produces methane through anaerobic fermentation, which is used as energy for the living area or fertilizer for courtyard plants. Inorganic waste is classified and compressed for storage, and is used for subsequent recycling or as raw materials for building materials.

[0040] Example 3: Vacuum pipeline transportation network This example proposes a design of a vacuum pipeline system for connecting each siheyuan unit.

[0041] Structure and materials The vacuum pipeline adopts a streamlined design to reduce air flow resistance and erosion of the pipeline by the external environment.

[0042] The pipeline surface is coated with radiation-resistant materials, and the inside uses low-temperature-resistant composite materials to ensure long-term stable operation in the Mars environment.

[0043] The pipeline support structure is earthquake-resistant designed to adapt to the low-gravity environment on the Mars surface and occasional geological activities.

[0044] Transportation system A maglev train runs inside a vacuum pipeline, which is used for rapid transportation of people and materials. The design of the train refers to modern high-speed train technology and is optimized in combination with the low-gravity environment. Its operating speed can reach 1000 kilometers per hour. An intelligent docking device is provided between the train and the courtyard unit, facilitating the loading and unloading of materials and the entry and exit of people.

[0045] Intelligent scheduling system The pipeline transportation network is controlled by a centralized scheduling system, which adjusts the train operation path and speed based on real-time data to optimize energy consumption. The system supports an emergency mode to ensure the safety of trains and people in case of emergencies (such as sandstorms or system failures).

[0046] Example 4: Mars environmental adaptability design Low-gravity adaptation: Buildings adopt a modular design, and each unit is stably fixed through connectors to form an overall structure, avoiding instability caused by low gravity. The residential area is equipped with anti-gravity fitness equipment for the physical health maintenance of residents.

[0047] High-radiation protection The outer shells of the residential area and the computing power working area are made of lead-containing composite materials, and a water-based protective layer is filled in the structural gaps to absorb high-energy rays. The surface of the vacuum pipeline also has a radiation protection function to ensure the safety of transported personnel.

[0048] Extreme climate response The surface of the solar power generation device is designed with anti-sandstorm function, and the accumulated dust is removed through a micro-vibration device. The exterior walls of the buildings use composite materials resistant to extreme temperature differences to avoid damage caused by thermal expansion and contraction.

[0049] Example 5: Intelligent management system In the said Mars city, all courtyard units are uniformly coordinated by an intelligent management system:

[0050] Integrated energy scheduling platform, which distributes the generated electricity according to the real-time electricity demand inside the courtyard.

[0051] The system supports energy storage and adjustment of distribution priorities to ensure power supply for important equipment and living areas.

[0052] Ecological cycle monitoring The biological cycle system monitors water quality, air quality, and waste treatment efficiency in real time, and optimizes scheduling through the cloud data center. When ecological anomalies occur, the system automatically alarms and starts the standby system to maintain stability.

[0053] Traffic scheduling The operation of the vacuum pipeline and the mobile unit is managed by a traffic scheduling system, which plans the optimal path based on AI algorithms to reduce traffic conflicts and energy waste.
