METEOROID PROTECTION OF COLLECTORS AND PIPE LINES WITH HEAT-TRANSFER AGENT OF COOLER-RADIATOR

摘要

FIELD: meteoroid protection of space vehicles, mainly collectors and pipe lines with heat-transfer agent of space nuclear power plants which may be connected with consumers by means of power current conductors and power opening element of cooler-radiator of power plant. SUBSTANCE: according to invention, power opening element of cooler-radiator is used as protective member. It is mounted on outer side of radiator at clearance and is made in form of U-shaped profile connected with antimeteoroid shield located on inner side of collectors. Collectors and pipe lines are mounted between power opening element and this shield and are provided with circular heat insulation. Power current conductors are located on outer side of power opening element at clearance where heat insulation is located. Power current conductors may be made in form of tubes manufactured form material possessing high electric conductivity (copper for example). EFFECT: simplified construction; reduced mass; facilitated manufacture, mounting and dismantling. 2 cl, 3 dwg
