The heat dissipation subsystem and space nuclear Brayton power generation system address the existing technical problem that existing space nuclear energy systems often use higher cooler temperatures to dissipate waste heat to reduce spaceflight costs and achieve a more compact surface energy system.

Description

Heat dissipation subsystem and space nuclear energy brayton power generation system
Technical Field
Relates to the field of space nuclear power, in particular to space nuclear power generation.
Background
With the development of deep space exploration, the design of an energy system of a star warhead resident base is highly interesting for aerospace researchers in various countries. Taking a lunar base as an example, the lunar surface resident base needs to meet the technical requirements of high energy density, high reliability, long service life and the like. In addition, in consideration of high emission and transportation costs of aerospace tasks, the designed base energy system meets the technical requirements, and simultaneously has the lowest possible weight cost, the lowest possible operation cost and the highest possible equipment compactness. The space nuclear energy system has the characteristics of high energy density, strong stability and long service life, so that the nuclear energy has a very high application prospect on the star-surface-base energy system. According to the technical characteristics of thermoelectric conversion, the conversion modes can be divided into static conversion and dynamic conversion according to the existence of a working element. The lower energy conversion rate has led to a continued search for applications that are powered at the base due to the technical limitations of static conversion. The dynamic conversion comprises Rankine cycle, brayton cycle and Stirling cycle, and the conversion efficiency is high and can reach more than 20%, so that considerable advantages are presented in the design of the energy system of the star table base with harsh conditions.
Since the alkali metal rankine cycle has the problem of an alkali metal two-phase flow, there is a certain safety risk during operation, and therefore, further investigation is required in the application of weak gravitational fields. The Stirling cycle is difficult to output at high power due to its inherent structural characteristics, and therefore requires further optimization in the application of the star energy system. The brayton cycle has high thermal efficiency, and has no technical characteristics of unstable two-phase flow and the like, so that the brayton cycle has considerable application prospect in star energy base application with larger energy demand. In a conventional spatial brayton cycle, a nuclear reactor, a turbine, a radiant cooler, and a compressor are included.
Unlike the ground brayton system, waste heat of the space brayton system is removed via a radiant radiator. The heat exchange capacity per unit radiation in space is as follows:
Where ε is the emissivity of the material, σ is the emissivity constant, T 1 is the radiant panel temperature, and T 0 is the space temperature. In space, especially on a star chart without atmosphere, the space temperature is considered to be a constant value of 4K.
From the above equation, it can be derived that the waste heat removal capacity of spatial brayton is positively correlated with the radiant panel temperature. The higher the temperature of the radiant panel, the stronger the waste heat removal capability. Under the condition of a certain total amount of waste heat, the higher the temperature of the radiation heat dissipation plate is, the smaller the required heat exchange area is. The temperature of the radiant radiator can also affect the thermal performance of the spatial brayton system. Taking helium xenon working medium with pressure below 2Mpa as an example under the condition of a constant heat source, the system output specific work is obtained under the following design working conditions:
Where pi is the turbo ratio and τ is the cyclic ratio. It can be seen from the above two formulas that the lower the temperature of the brayton cycle cooler, the higher the specific work output of the system. However, in order to reduce the space cost of the existing space nuclear energy system and obtain higher compactness of the star-meter energy system, the waste heat is often discharged by adopting a higher cooler temperature, but the highest output specific work of the system is reduced by adopting the higher cooler temperature.
