摘要: 对行星探测任务中的星壤采样密封问题进行了研究,旨在设计一种基于记忆合金温变原理的径向挤压密封装置,以确保样本的原位性,同时减少高轴向推进力的需求,优化采样密封操作过程。提出了基于Roth定律的微观泄露模型,以分析结构和外部参数对密封漏率的影响。建立了两种不同构型的记忆合金片恢复变形模型,通过应力仿真确定了尖角构型在密封可靠性上的优势,并对几何尺寸进行了优化。装置采用了质量轻、效率高的聚酰亚胺加热膜进行电阻加热,通过单程记忆合金的径向挤压薄壁罐体内壁实现密封。利用理论泄露模型对漏率进行了预估,并通过热场仿真评估了加热能耗。研究结果表明,当记忆合金片与装置内壁的直径偏差小于0.20mm时,装置的漏率达到了10-6 Pa·m3/s。试验测试显示,装置的平均挤压应力为160MPa,理论预估的漏率与实际测量结果一致,总能耗为2137.7J。设计的基于记忆合金的挤压密封装置能够在无须高轴向推进力的情况下实现有效密封,特别是尖角构型在密封性能上展现出明显优势。装置的高密封性与低能耗特性为行星探测任务中的样品轨道转移密封提供了可靠且节能的解决方案,具有广泛的应用前景。

Abstract: This study addresses the sealing challenges in planetary soil sampling. It aims to design a radial compression sealing device using a shape memory alloy (SMA) triggered by temperature changes. The device ensures sample integrity and reduces the need for high axial force, optimizing the sealing process. A microscopic leakage model, based on Roth’s law, is used to evaluate the impact of structural and external factors on leakage rates. Two SMA sheet configurations are analyzed, with simulations showing that the sharp-angle design enhances sealing reliability. The device uses polyimide heating films for resistive heating, achieving sealing by radially compressing the canister. Theoretical leakage rates are predicted, and the energy consumption is assessed through thermal simulations. When the SMA sheet’s diameter deviation from the inner wall is under 0.20mm, the leakage rate reaches 10-6Pa·m3/s. Tests show an average compression stress of 160MPa, with measured leakage rates consistent with predictions. The total energy consumption is 2137.7J, demonstrating the device's high sealing efficiency for orbital sample transfer. The SMA-based device effectively seals without requiring significant axial force. The sharp-angle configuration particularly enhances performance. This device offers a reliable, energy-efficient solution for planetary sample orbit transfer sealing with broad potential applications.
