Abstract

Superconducting technology is a potential solution for ultra-high power electrical transmission in limited size and weight, and has been feasibility demonstrated in multiple aerospace projects by NASA and ESA. For the aerospace environment with requirements for weight and volume, in high-power applications such as space solar power plants, superconducting power transmission can be used to effectively utilize stable high-energy solar radiation in space orbit, and wireless energy transmission can be used to transmit it to the ground. Faced with the demand for ultra-high power transmission within large space power stations, it is urgent to carry out research on safe and reliable ultra-high power transmission. The ”zero resistance” effect of superconducting technology can significantly reduce power loss and increase the transmission current density per unit volume, which is of great significance for solving the long-distance transmission of high-power electricity. This article discusses the current development status of second-generation high-temperature superconducting cable technology at home and abroad, as well as the feasibility analysis of its application in space solar power plant systems. It summarizes the key technologies for applying high-temperature superconducting power transmission in aerospace environments, providing reference for subsequent practical engineering design.
空间太阳能电站高温超导输电系统综述
超导技术是在有限的尺寸和重量下实现超高功率电力传输的潜在解决方案,并且已经在NASA和ESA的多个航空航天项目中得到了可行性证明。对于对重量和体积有要求的航天环境,在空间太阳能电站等大功率应用中,可以利用超导输电技术有效利用空间轨道上稳定的高能太阳辐射,并利用无线能量传输技术将其传输到地面。面对大空间电站内超高功率传输的需求,开展安全可靠的超高功率传输研究迫在眉睫。超导技术的“零电阻”效应可以显著降低功率损耗,提高单位体积传输电流密度,对于解决大功率电力的远距离传输具有重要意义。本文论述了第二代高温超导电缆技术的国内外发展现状,并对其在空间太阳能电站系统中的应用进行了可行性分析。总结了高温超导输电在航天环境中应用的关键技术,为后续实际工程设计提供参考。
