Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of spacecraft thermal control technology, and in particular relates to a wide-temperature-range regulated and highly stable heat dissipation system for spaceborne high-heat-dissipation phased array antennas. Background Technology
[0002] Active phased array antennas, characterized by high reliability, high gain, and reconfigurability, are playing an increasingly important role in space communication, environmental monitoring, and navigation, gradually becoming standard main payloads for spacecraft. As spaceborne active phased array antennas develop towards higher frequencies, higher integration, higher precision, and lighter weight, their heat flux density increases generation by generation. This directly leads to a significant increase in the temperature of the internal transmitter / receiver (T / R) components, severely affecting the phase control accuracy of the array surface. Furthermore, the complex and diverse thermal environments of different orbits (high and low Earth orbits), variations in the operating modes of phased array antennas, and uneven heat dissipation distribution cause significant temperature fluctuations and large temperature differences within the entire system during orbit. To eliminate the effects of temperature gradients and fluctuations, phased array antennas also face high requirements for overall temperature consistency and stability. Thermal control technology has become a key factor restricting the research of next-generation high-performance spaceborne phased array antennas. A single thermal control product is insufficient to meet their heat dissipation needs; therefore, it is essential to develop efficient thermal control systems to ensure the on-orbit performance of phased array antennas.
[0003] Given the complex and variable orbital thermal environment, the large variations in heat dissipation under different operating modes, and the uneven distribution of heat dissipation, existing publicly available technologies cannot simultaneously achieve high stability and wide-range control of the on-orbit temperature of phased array antennas. Summary of the Invention

This invention offers advantages such as wide temperature range control and high temperature stability, while also being simple, lightweight, requiring fewer thermal control resources, and exhibiting high reliability.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0025] Furthermore, the total area of the metal structural panels is taken as the heat dissipation area A, which is determined according to the following formula:

Detailed Implementation
[0048] The features and advantages of the present invention will become clearer and more apparent from the following detailed description.
[0049] The term “exemplary” as used herein means “serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration.” Any embodiment illustrated herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as superior to or better than other embodiments. Although various aspects of embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale unless specifically indicated otherwise.
[0050] This invention provides a wide-temperature-range controllable and highly stable heat dissipation system for phased array antennas. The main components are all high-reliability passive thermal control products, which have the advantages of wide temperature range control and high temperature stability. At the same time, the system is simple, lightweight, requires few thermal control resources, and has high reliability.
[0051] The present invention discloses a wide-temperature-range adjustable and highly stable heat dissipation system for phased array antennas, comprising a temperature equalization unit, a heat transfer unit, and a heat dissipation unit.
[0052] The temperature equalization unit is a structural and thermal control integrated design, including a first orthogonal heat pipe, a second orthogonal heat pipe and a structural frame. The three are integrated by gluing or welding, and the interface is strongly coupled.
[0053] Both the first and second orthogonal heat pipes are configured in multiple combinations to ensure overall temperature consistency of the temperature equalization unit under conditions of uneven heat dissipation and uneven external heat flow. This also improves the reliability of the temperature equalization unit, as damage to a single orthogonal heat pipe does not affect the system's temperature equalization function.
[0054] The first orthogonal heat pipe is embedded in the front of the structural frame, and the phased array antenna heating component is directly mounted on the surface of the first orthogonal heat pipe, with the mounting interface coated with thermally conductive filler.
[0055] The second orthogonal heat pipe is installed on the opposite side of the structural frame, and its arrangement direction is perpendicular to the first orthogonal heat pipe.
[0056] The heat transfer unit is a loop heat pipe, which includes an evaporator, a first pipe, a second pipe, a third pipe, and a liquid receiver, connected in sequence to form a closed loop. The shell material of the loop heat pipe is preferably stainless steel, and the internal working fluid is preferably pure ammonia.
[0057] The loop heat pipe evaporator is mounted on the surface of the second orthogonal heat pipe, with thermally conductive filler applied between them. In the coupling area between the loop heat pipe evaporator and the second orthogonal heat pipe, metal pads are added between the upper and lower fins of the second orthogonal heat pipe to enhance the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the heat dissipation system.
[0058] The loop heat pipe liquid receiver is installed on the surface of the structural frame with a heat insulation pad, and an electric heater and temperature sensing element are attached to the surface of the liquid receiver to achieve closed-loop control of the liquid receiver temperature.
[0059] The heat dissipation unit is a combination of a metal structural plate and a second pipeline. Preferably, the metal structural plate is an aluminum-skinned aluminum honeycomb panel, and the second pipeline is fitted with metal clamps. Preferably, the second pipeline is a serpentine pipeline with equal spacing, with a pipe spacing of 120mm.
[0060] The surface of the metal structural plate has a thermal control and heat dissipation coating, which is a low absorptivity-emissivity thermal control coating.
[0061] After the temperature of the heat transfer unit is set, the heat transfer unit and the heat dissipation unit will adjust the heat dissipation performance of the heat dissipation unit according to the changes in antenna heat dissipation and external heat flow to ensure the temperature stability of the equalization unit, thereby achieving high temperature stability of the phased array antenna. By setting different temperatures for the heat transfer unit, a wide range of temperature adjustment for the phased array antenna can be achieved. Specifically, the heat from the TR component is sequentially transferred to the first orthogonal heat pipe, the structural frame, and the second orthogonal heat pipe. The second orthogonal heat pipe is equipped with a liquid reservoir and an evaporator. The temperature of the liquid reservoir is maintained at a predetermined temperature, and the liquid reservoir does not exchange heat with the second orthogonal heat pipe. The evaporator absorbs heat, and the liquid ammonia in the evaporator is converted into ammonia gas. The ammonia gas passes through the first pipe and then enters the second pipe to exchange heat with the environment. After heat exchange, the ammonia gas is converted into liquid ammonia. The liquid ammonia passes through the third pipe and enters the liquid reservoir, and then enters the evaporator from the liquid reservoir to complete the cycle. The temperature of the phased array antenna is regulated by adjusting the temperature of the liquid reservoir. Specifically, the liquid reservoir and evaporator are integrated into a single structure. During normal operation, the liquid reservoir temperature is 1-2°C lower than the evaporator temperature. The evaporator, second orthogonal heat pipe, structural frame, first orthogonal heat pipe, and TR assembly are thermally coupled to each other. When the phased array antenna heat dissipation reaches its maximum, the temperature difference between the evaporator and the TR assembly is 8-10°C. Therefore, there is a temperature difference of 9-12°C between the liquid reservoir and the phased array antenna TR assembly. Considering the influence of changes in the on-orbit thermal environment and the phased array antenna heat dissipation, a temperature difference of over 20°C between the liquid reservoir and the phased array antenna TR assembly is sufficient to ensure a stable TR assembly temperature. The preferred temperature range for the phased array antenna TR assembly is 10-50°C, therefore, the preferred liquid reservoir temperature is -10-30°C.
[0062] In summary, this invention provides a wide-temperature-range controllable and highly stable heat dissipation system for phased array antennas, comprising a temperature equalization unit, a heat transfer unit, and a heat dissipation unit. By designing the heat dissipation area of the heat dissipation unit and implementing closed-loop temperature control of the heat transfer unit, a wide temperature range and high stability control of the phased array antenna temperature are achieved. The temperature equalization unit features an integrated thermal control structure design, ensuring overall temperature consistency even under conditions of uneven heat dissipation and uneven external heat flow. Metal pads are placed between the upper and lower fins of the orthogonal heat pipes in the thermal coupling region between the temperature equalization unit and the heat transfer unit, simultaneously enhancing the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the heat dissipation system.
