摘要: 为解决月面探测与原位资源利用中太阳能收集效率低、聚光系统像差大及能量传输不稳定的问题,开展了三反射式太阳能聚光系统的优化与像差补偿研究。设计了由主镜、双面次镜和快速反射镜(FSM)构成的三反射式聚光光路,提出基于共轭修正的次镜像差补偿方法。引入有效光焦度(EOF)指标,以平衡球差补偿与遮挡损失。利用光线追迹仿真分析焦斑能量分布与像差演化规律,并基于拉格朗日方程建立FSM光路耦合动力学模型,实现角度补偿控制。研究表明,该系统在主镜球差完全补偿后实现了204×聚光比与准平行光输出。经EOF优化后,有效光能利用率较传统双反射系统提升约15%。FSM补偿控制使追踪角度误差降低至1μrad以内,显著提高了系统的远程能量传输稳定性。三反射式聚光结构与FSM复合控制实现了近距高聚光比与远距平行光输出的协同优化,有效减弱次镜遮挡对焦斑质量的影响。该研究结果对月面长期探测、空间太阳能电站及高温太阳热化学应用具有意义。

Abstract: To address the challenges of low solar collection efficiency, large optical aberrations, and unstable energy transmission in lunar exploration and in-situ resource utilization (ISRU), the optimization and dynamic compensation of a triple-reflector solar concentrator are investigated. The concentrator is designed with a primary mirror, a double-sided secondary mirror, and a fast steering mirror (FSM). A conjugate-correction method for secondary-mirror aberration compensation is developed, and an effective optical focality (EOF) metric is introduced to balance spherical-aberration correction and energy occlusion. Ray-tracing simulations are performed to analyze the evolution of focal-spot energy distribution and aberration patterns. In addition, a coupled dynamic model of the FSM-optical path is established based on the Lagrange formulation to realize precise angular compensation and stable beam control.The proposed system achieves a 204× concentration ratio and produces a quasi-parallel beam after complete spherical-aberration correction. EOF-based optimization improves the effective optical efficiency by approximately 15% compared with conventional dual-reflector systems. With FSM compensation, the tracking angular error is reduced to below 1 μrad, significantly enhancing the stability of long-distance optical energy transmission. The integration of the triple-reflector configuration with FSM-based control achieves coordinated optimization of high-concentration near-field focusing and collimated long-range beam output, while effectively mitigating secondary-mirror obstruction. The findings are of importance for long-term lunar missions, space-based solar power (SBSP), and high-temperature solar thermochemical applications.
