Abstract

The invention discloses a gas trapping device for a space suction type electric propulsion system. The gas trapping device sequentially comprises a collimator body and a gas trapping device body in the gas flowing direction. The collimator body is a hollow tubular telescopic assembly, a pipeline of the collimator body is parallel to the flowing direction of air molecules, and the collimator body forms a long and narrow gas trapping flow channel to improve the gas trapping efficiency. A first directional guiding assembly for guiding gas molecules into the gas trapping device body in a directional flowing manner is arranged between the collimator body and the gas trapping device body. A second directional guide assembly for enabling the gas molecules to enter a pressurizing storage device in a directional flowing manner is arranged between the gas trapping device body and the pressurizing storage device. According to the gas trapping device for the space suction type electric propulsion system, the target gas trapping efficiency is obtained by adjusting the length of the collimator body, through two stages of gas directional guide pumps, the forward motion probability of air particles in the gas trapping device body is increased, and the air trapping efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air-breathing electric propulsion spacecraft, in particular to a gas capture device for a space air-breathing electric propulsion system. Background technique [0002] Air-breathing electric propulsion is a very potential propulsion technology for long-term orbit maintenance of ultra-low orbit spacecraft. This technology does not need to carry propellant from the ground, but captures gas molecules in the thin atmosphere of space, decelerates and pressurizes them and provides them as propellant to the electric thruster. The air-breathing electric propulsion system mainly includes a gas capture device, a pressurized storage device, and an electric thruster. The gas capture device is located at the front end of the air-breathing electric propulsion system. The storage devices are connected. [0003] In order to efficiently capture gas molecules, the air-breathing electric propulsion system needs to use a g...
