摘要
移动发射台(Mobile Launcher,ML)作为美国新一代重型运载火箭——航天发射系统(Space Launch System,SLS)的关键地面设备之一,承担着该型火箭及猎户座飞船的组装、测试、转运与发射支持等功能。该发射台继承了阿波罗航天飞机、土星Ⅴ等重型运载火箭发射台的结构布局、工作模式和功能特点,同时对脐带装置、发射附件等进行了改进和升级。此外,NASA在该发射台的研制与改造过程中,以包括SLS在内的多个型号为应用对象,进行了基于通用化与模块化的设计与部署,并成功借鉴了航天飞机、土星Ⅴ所使用发射台的设备与技术,全面深入地开展了功能性、安全性与可靠性测试。研究内容可为中国的重型运载火箭的发射台设计及相关技术研究提供借鉴与参考。
Mobile Launcher(ML)is one of the critical ground supporting systems,which is going to be in service for Space Launch System(SLS).The function of ML includes stacking,assembly,process checkouts and launch support for the SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft.The structure layouts,operations and functions from Apollo and Saturn V are valued and baselined.The ground support equipment like umbilicals and accessories are researched and renewed.Besides,ML is aimed to be possessed of strong applicability and generality for different heavy-lift rockets,including SLS.The generality design is then performed,and modules and equipment are borrowed from previous launchers.Comprehensive tests of function,security and reliability are carried on.The research in the paper will provide reference for the launcher of heavy-lift rocket in China.
