Description

Static charge releasing device of near space vehicle
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of static electricity, in particular to a static charge releasing device of a near space vehicle.
Background
In recent years, with the development of aerospace technology, development of near space is increasingly emphasized, and the near space is not only a flight corridor of an ultra-high speed aircraft, but also a place where the aircraft must travel to and from space. When the near space aircraft flies at a high speed, the unavoidable collision friction with surrounding substances causes static electricity, and the jet effect of engine tail gas also causes static electricity to be charged on the aircraft. Under the comprehensive action of a plurality of electrostatic charging modes, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can be generated when the electrostatic magnitude of the supersonic aircraft reaches a certain degree, and the discharge energy generates a complex electrostatic effect on airborne equipment through a conduction and radiation coupling mode, so that the flight safety of the supersonic aircraft is affected.
One key technology for the electrostatic safety problem of the high-speed aircraft is an electrostatic charge control technology (here, the electrostatic charge is controlled to control the electrostatic charge on the aircraft so as to ensure the electrostatic safety of the aircraft), and the electrostatic charge control technology mainly comprises a passive mode and an active mode. The static charge control of the aircraft and the rocket mainly adopts a passive static discharger, and is mainly divided into a cotton yarn core discharger, a metal wire discharger, a decoupling discharger and the like, when the accumulated charges of the aircraft exceed the discharge threshold of the discharger, corona discharge can occur to realize the charge release of a charged body, the discharge threshold of the corona discharge varies along with the change of the surrounding atmospheric environment, and the static charge release cannot be actively carried out. The flying space of the near space aircraft covers an atmosphere layer, an ionosphere and the near space, the ambient air pressure is large when the atmosphere flies, the existing passive discharger can play a role of releasing static electricity, but the discharging threshold value of the existing passive discharger is sharply increased according to the Paschen law of gas discharging under low air pressure or vacuum environment such as the near space, and the static electricity releasing efficiency is greatly reduced due to the fact that the air is thin. The active static charge control technology adopts a particle emission device, and the static electric potential of the aircraft is kept at a safe level by controlling the ejection of charged particles to reduce the structure and the surface electric potential of the aircraft through instructions. The existing static active control technology such as a hollow cathode type plasma emission device used on a satellite needs to carry xenon as ionized gas, so that the device has a complex structure and increased weight, and is not suitable for the lightweight requirement of airborne equipment of an adjacent space vehicle. The existing static charge control technology is mainly applied to airplanes and satellites, a special static discharger is not used for the current near-space ultra-high-speed aircraft, so that static hazard of the near-space aircraft is uncontrollable, the existing discharger cannot be directly applied to static charge discharge of the near-space aircraft, and a special static charge releaser needs to be studied.
