Description

Working medium-free annular hot wire cathode
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of space electric propulsion, in particular to a working medium-free annular hot wire cathode.
Background
The cathode is an important device for plume neutralization of space electric thrusters and charge balancing during spacecraft operation. In the on-orbit operation process of the spacecraft, because the charge neutralization of the ground wire is lacked, the spacecraft can generate charge accumulation under the action of ion beams emitted by the electric propeller and under the action of space environment charged particles, and the spacecraft is influenced in a non-negligible way. In addition, the start-up and operation of some electric thrusters require the cathode to supply the source electrons. Therefore, when the spacecraft is in orbit, a cathode is required to be equipped.
The most common internationally, in-orbit application, is the gas working medium hollow cathode, which utilizes the hollow cathode effect to extract the heat-emitted electrons from the high-density plasma in the cathode tube to provide electron flow. However, in the high-precision space science mission, the interference of the cathode using the gas working medium to the vector precision of the thrust generated by the propulsion system is not negligible because the cathode emits the plasma beam. Therefore, the development of various working medium-free cathodes is promoted at present. Common working medium-free cathodes include thermal emission hot filament cathodes, thermal emitter cathodes, field emission cathodes, and the like. The hot wire cathode has a simple structure and relatively high emission current, and has been applied to the field of micro electric propulsion for many times. The principle is that the electron overflow work of the emission material is achieved through electric heating, and then the positive electric field is applied by the extraction stage to extract the electrons in a directional manner to generate electron current.
However, various cathodes currently available, including hot-wire cathodes, which operate as point electron sources in the matching of the thrusters, have a considerable influence on the symmetry of the plume even if they do not generate thrust by themselves. Due to the particularity of the shape of the hot wire cathode emitter, the hot wire cathode emitter has the possibility of working as a ring-shaped electron source, so that the problem of plume asymmetry caused by the electron source to the thruster is thoroughly solved.

As an alternative embodiment, a plurality of hollowed-out holes 8 are arranged on the heat shield 2; the hollow holes 8 are used for separating the adjacent special-shaped bolts 5. The heat shield 2 is arranged between the heat emitting metal wire 4 and the bottom plate 1, and a plurality of hollow holes 8 are distributed on the heat shield 2 to avoid mutual contact and short circuit with the special-shaped bolts 5.
As an alternative embodiment, an extraction gap 7 is arranged inside the extraction electrode 3; the leading-out gap 7 is arranged opposite to the heat emission metal wire 4; in particular the lead-out gap 7, is aligned radially with the heat-emitting wire 4. The extraction gap 7 is used for extracting electrons overflowing from the thermal emission metal wire 4. The extraction electrode 3 is an extraction electrode 3 with an annular structure.
As an alternative embodiment, the thruster 11 includes a hall thruster 11 and an ion thruster 11; when the thruster 11 is a hall thruster 11; the direction of the extraction gap 7 is the same as the direction of the magnetic force lines of the hall thruster 11.
As an alternative embodiment, the outlet 9 of the thruster structure 6 is arranged in the centre of the bottom plate 1.
As an alternative embodiment, the heat-emitting wire 4, the extraction electrode 3, the base plate 1 and the thruster structure 6 are arranged coaxially.
As an alternative embodiment, both the side wall of the heat shield 2 facing the heat emitting wire 4 and the side wall of the extraction electrode 3 facing the heat emitting wire 4 are smooth side walls. The surfaces of the heat shield 2 and the extraction electrode 3 facing the heat-emitting wire 4 should be smoothed.
As an alternative embodiment, the material of the bottom plate 1 is ceramic. The ceramic of the bottom plate 1 should be a ceramic material with a high melting point and a high strength, such as alumina.
As an alternative embodiment, the heat emitting wire 4 employs a low electron spill work and can be processed into a filament-like electron emitting material, such as a tungsten-rhenium wire, a thorium-tungsten wire, a pure tungsten wire, or the like.
The working medium-free annular hot wire cathode provided by the invention is coaxially arranged with the thruster 11 when being matched with the thruster structure 6. The heat shield 2, the extraction electrode 3 and the special-shaped bolt 5 are made of metal or alloy with higher melting point, such as 304 stainless steel, titanium alloy and the like. Each structure of the working medium-free annular hot wire cathode is made of non-magnetic conductive or weak magnetic conductive materials. And all structures of the working medium-free annular hot wire cathode are installed in a bolt connection and fixing mode.
As shown in fig. 6, the working medium-free annular hot filament cathode provided by the present invention is used to heat the filament-like low work function thermal electron emission material annularly disposed, and is matched with the extraction electrode 3 to extract electrons, so as to realize extraction of electron current symmetrically distributed with respect to the axial line of the thruster 11. The working principle is as follows:
the cathode integral structure is connected to the thruster structure 6 through a bolt and is coaxial with the thruster 11, so that the cathode integral structure is integrally connected with the spacecraft. Two ends of the annular heat emission metal wire 4 are connected with a heating power supply 10 through special-shaped bolts 5, the leading-out electrode 3 is connected with the positive electrode of a leading-out power supply 12, the thruster 11 is connected with the positive electrode of a thruster 11, namely an anode power supply 13, and the three power supplies are negative. The heat emitting wire 4 is arranged in the cavity formed by the extraction electrode 3 and the heat shield 2, and is not contacted with the extraction electrode and the heat shield. Wherein the heat emitting wire 4 is aligned with the extraction gap 7 of the extraction electrode 3.
When the cathode provided by the invention is in operation, after the heating power supply 10 is started, the current in the heating circuit is higher, and the heat emission metal wire 4 is heated. In the cavity formed by the heat shield 2 and the extraction electrode 3, the heat radiation is reflected by the smooth surface, keeping the heat mostly inside the cavity. When the heat emitting wire 4 is heated to a state higher than its electron overflow work state, heat emitting free electrons are generated around it. The extraction power supply 12 is started, and electrons are extracted from the extraction gap 7 under the action of the extraction electrode 3 to form extraction electron current. The extracted electron flow is captured by a thruster 11 which is coaxially arranged, enters a discharge chamber of the thruster 11 from an outlet 9 of the thruster 11 to initiate and maintain the discharge of the thruster 11, or enters a plume region to neutralize the plume of the thruster 11.
The cathode provided by the invention can be matched with thrusters 11 with different characteristics through different diameters, different lead-out gap orientations and the like. For example, when matching with a cylindrical hall thruster or a cusp field hall thruster, it should be noted that the orientation of the extraction gap 7 is consistent with the direction of the magnetic lines of force to improve the electron extraction rate, and when matching with an ion thruster, the orientation has less influence. During operation, the electron extraction capability of the cathode can be adjusted by adjusting the heating current and the extraction electrode potential. The specific implementation manner is subject to actual operation.
By adopting the design of the annular heat-emitting metal wire 4 and the annular extraction electrode 3, the electron current extraction which is symmetrically distributed relative to the axial line of the thruster 11 is realized, and the influence of the cathode on the thrust vector and the plume distribution asymmetry of the thruster 11 is avoided. By using the thermal emission metal wire 4, the uncertain influence of the plasma beam of the traditional gas working medium cathode on the discharge characteristic of the thruster 11 is avoided. Meanwhile, the cathode mounting position covers the outlet area of the thruster 11, so that a high-density plasma environment exists around the emitter, which is beneficial to leading out electrons of the emitter, and the leading-out effect of the cathode is improved by using a plasma sheath layer. The above working characteristics make it more suitable for low-power, high-precision electric propulsion systems.
In the present specification, the embodiments are described in a progressive manner, each embodiment focuses on differences from other embodiments, and the same and similar parts among the embodiments are referred to each other.
The principles and embodiments of the present invention have been described herein using specific examples, which are provided only to help understand the method and the core concept of the present invention; meanwhile, for a person skilled in the art, according to the idea of the present invention, the specific embodiments and the application range may be changed. In view of the above, the present disclosure should not be construed as limiting the invention.
