Abstract:
In order to meet the demand of reliable,sustainable and high-power energy sources for large-scale space missions in the future,such as marginal exploration of the solar system,deep-space orbit transfer and manned deep-space exploration,space nuclear power propulsion technology has become a global research hotspot. By reviewing the current development trends of space nuclear power in major countries,this paper systematically sorts out the development direction of space nuclear power including modularization,generalization and spectrum. The key technologies such as integration,heat dissipation,manufacture,verification and others involved in space nuclear power are thoroughly analyzed. Finally,the core advantages and potential risks for China are summarized,which provides a reference for the demonstration and investigation of future space nuclear power propulsion.
