Abstract

Abstract It is almost impossible to name a field of human activity where porous materials are not used. Filters, membranes, thermal insulators, fuel cells, catalysts, wicks of heat transfer devices, sorbents, textiles, and other examples of porous materials explain such an increased interest in the study of their properties, design of new materials, and development of technologies for their manufacture. The recent need for in-orbit spacecraft refuelling has led to the development of gas thermal compression technology based on the use of porous material as both a fuel retention mechanism and thermal interface. The present paper reveals the thermal aspects of porous material design for a device intended for pumping xenon, fuel for ion thrusters, in zero-gravity conditions – Xenon Refuelling Compressor.
用于空间条件下气体热压缩的多孔材料:热设计方面
几乎不可能说出一个不使用多孔材料的人类活动领域。过滤器、膜、隔热体、燃料电池、催化剂、传热装置芯、吸附剂、纺织品和其他多孔材料的例子解释了人们对多孔材料性能研究、新材料设计和制造技术开发的兴趣日益增加。近年来对航天器在轨加油的需求导致了基于多孔材料作为燃料保留机制和热界面的气体热压缩技术的发展。本论文揭示了用于在零重力条件下泵送氙(离子推进器的燃料)的多孔材料设计的热方面-氙加油压缩机。
