Embodiment
What below introduce is the embodiment as content of the present invention, below by embodiment, described content of the present invention is further illustrated.Certainly, describing following embodiment is only the content of example different aspect of the present invention, and should not be construed as the restriction scope of the invention.
As shown in Figure 1, a kind of detector based on capacitance partial pressure, it comprises conduction potential electrode 2 and pastes insulation film 1 thereon, between conduction potential electrode 2 and spacecraft structure ground 7, with measurement electric capacity 4, be connected, and measure by tension measuring circuit 5, compensating electrode 3 is arranged in conduction potential electrode 2 peripheries and isolates with conduction potential electrode 2.Compensating electrode 3 is connected with spacecraft structure ground 7 with bias voltage source 6 by protective resistance 8.
This detector can be positioned over the outside surface of spacecraft, when spacecraft charges due to space plasma impact, spacecraft conductive structure ground 7 can produce more negative current potential, but dielectric film effect, its dielectric layer outside surface current potential and space plasma current potential approximately equal due to conduction potential electrode surface.Now, by the equivalent capacity 9 of insulation film with measure electric capacity 4 and form capacitance partial pressure network, adjust the on-off circuit of measuring in electric capacity 4 and control its capacitance, and utilize tension measuring circuit 5 to obtain two groups of corresponding voltage measuring values.By capacitance and the measuring voltage value 10 of known measurement electric capacity 4, can determine the equivalent capacity 9 that draws insulation film, according to the value of the equivalent capacity 9 of insulation film, the capacitance of measuring electric capacity 4 and measuring voltage value 10, just can determine floating potential value 11.Concrete, spacecraft floating potential is approximately equal to the potential difference (PD) U between dielectric layer outside surface current potential and spacecraft structure ground fwherein, the capacitance that dielectric film self can be equivalent between space plasma and conduction potential electrode is C1, between conduction potential electrode and spacecraft structure earth potential, be connected measurement capacitor C 2, when spacecraft charges while reaching certain floating potential in plasma environment, between conduction potential electrode and spacecraft structure ground, voltage measuring value is U m.According to capacitance partial pressure method, known:
U f = C 1 C 1 + C 2 U m
Wherein, when changing 2 groups of different C2 values, can be by measuring voltage U mand capacitor C 2 values obtain size and the U of C1 fvalue.When obtaining after C1 value through measuring, can not change the size of C2 value, directly measure floating potential value.
When measuring, because space plasma can change with spacecraft orbit position, adopt at set intervals 2 groups of different C2 values of switching over to calibrate the measured value of C1, and obtain floating potential values 11 with this value and definite, immovable measurement electric capacity 4, reduce to measure the access times of switch in electric capacity 4, increase its serviceable life in-orbit.
During measurement, while having other spacecraft outside surface bare exposed conductor near conduction potential electrode 2, can adjust the voltage of compensating electrode 3, the Outside Dimensions of compensating electrode 3 is greater than conduction potential electrode 2.When bucking voltage and space plasma current potential are approximate identical, just can reduce the impact of sheath layer around, by the bias voltage using measured value as relative spacecraft structure ground, be added on compensating electrode 3, realize and eliminate the object of disturbing around, can form feedback simultaneously, measured value after eliminate disturbing continues as new bias voltage, until that measured value reaches is at short notice stable.
