Isebenzisa ubume bezinto ezidityanisiweyo zekhabhoni, i-rocket “yeNeutron” iya kuba sesona sithuthi siphezulu sokuqala emhlabeni.
Ngokusekelwe kumava angaphambili aphumeleleyo ekuphuhliseni isithuthi esincinci sokuqaliswa "I-Electron", i-Rocket Lab yase-USA, i-US ehamba phambili yokuqaliswa kunye nenkampani yenkqubo yendawo, iphuhlise ukuqaliswa okukhulu okubizwa ngokuba yi-"Neutron" Rockets, kunye nomthamo wokuhlawula i-8. iitoni, zinokusetyenziselwa ukubhabha esibhakabhakeni okuqhutywa ngumntu, ukumiliselwa kweenkwenkwezi ezinkulu zesathelayithi, kunye nokuhlola indawo enzulu.I-rocket iphumelele kwiziphumo zempumelelo kuyilo, izixhobo kunye nokusebenziseka kwakhona.
I-rocket "i-Neutron" luhlobo olutsha lwesithuthi sokuqalisa esinokuthembeka okuphezulu, ukusetyenziswa kwakhona kunye neendleko eziphantsi.Ngokungafaniyo neerokethi zemveli, i-rocket "Neutron" iya kuphuhliswa ngokweemfuno zabathengi.Kuqikelelwa ukuba ngaphezu kwe-80% yeesathelayithi eziqaliswe kwiminyaka elishumi ezayo ziya kuba ngamaqoqo eenkwenkwezi, kunye neemfuno ezikhethekileyo zokusasazwa.I-rocket "Neutron" inokwanelisa iimfuno ezikhethekileyo ezinjalo.Isithuthi sokuphehlelelwa kwe-"Neutron" senze oku kulandelayo kwethekhnoloji:
1. Isithuthi sokuqala esikhulu sokuphehlelela ehlabathini sisebenzisa imathiriyeli ye-carbon fiber composite
Irokethi “yeNeutron” iya kuba sisithuthi sokuqala esikhulu emhlabeni jikelele sokuphehlelelwa kusetyenziswa imathiriyeli ye-carbon fiber composite.I-rocket iya kusebenzisa izinto ezintsha kunye nezikhethekileyo ze-carbon fiber composite, ezinobunzima obulula, obunamandla aphezulu, inokumelana nobushushu obukhulu kunye nefuthe lokuqaliswa kunye nokungena kwakhona, ukwenzela ukuba inqanaba lokuqala lisetyenziswe ngokuphindaphindiweyo.Ukuze kuphunyezwe ukuveliswa ngokukhawuleza, i-carbon fibre composite structure ye "Neutron" rocket iya kwenziwa kusetyenziswa inkqubo yokubeka i-fiber ezenzekelayo (AFP), enokuvelisa iqokobhe le-carbon fiber composite rocket iimitha ezininzi ubude kwimizuzu embalwa.
2. Isiseko esitsha senza lula ukuqaliswa kunye nenkqubo yokumisa
Ukusebenziseka kwakhona sisitshixo sokusungulwa rhoqo kunye nexabiso eliphantsi, ngoko ke kwasekuqaleni koyilo, i-rocket ye-"Neutron" yanikwa amandla okuhlala phantsi, ukubuyisela kunye nokuqalisa kwakhona.Ukujonga kwimilo yerokethi "yeNeutron", uyilo olucekethekileyo kunye nesiseko esikhulu, esomeleleyo asenzeli nje kuphela ubume obuntsonkothileyo berokethi, kodwa siphinde siphelise imfuno yemilenze yokumisa kunye nesiseko esikhulu sendawo yokuqalisa.Irokethi ye "Neutron" ayithembeli kwinqaba yokuqalisa, kwaye inokuqalisa imisebenzi kuphela kwisiseko sayo.Emva kokuqalisa kwi-orbit kunye nokukhulula i-rocket yenqanaba lesibini kunye nomthwalo wayo wokuhlawula, i-rocket yenqanaba lokuqala iya kubuyela emhlabeni kwaye yenze ukuhla okuthambileyo kwindawo yokuqaliswa.
3. Ingqikelelo entsha ye-fairing iphumela kuyilo oluqhelekileyo
Uyilo olulodwa lwerokethi "yeNeutron" lukwabonakala kwi-fairing ebizwa ngokuba yi "Hungry Hippo" (iHippo elambileyo).I-Fairing ye-"Hungry Hippo" iya kuba yinxalenye yenqanaba lokuqala le-rocket kwaye iya kuhlanganiswa ngokupheleleyo nenqanaba lokuqala;i-"Hungry Hippo" fairing ayisayi kwahlulwa kwi-rocket kwaye iwele elwandle njengomdlalo wesintu, kodwa iya kuvuleka njengemvubu.Umlomo wavula ukukhulula inqanaba lesibini le-rocket kunye nokuhlawula, emva koko wavalwa kwakhona kwaye wabuyela eMhlabeni kunye ne-rocket yenqanaba lokuqala.I-rocket landing on the launch pad is a first-stage rocket with fairing, enokuthi idityaniswe kwi-rocket yenqanaba lesibini ngexesha elifutshane kwaye iqalise kwakhona.Ukwamkela uyilo lwe-Fairing "I-Hippo elambileyo" kunokukhawulezisa ukumiselwa rhoqo kwaye kuphelise iindleko eziphezulu kunye nokuthembeka okuphantsi kokurisayikilishwa kwee-fairings elwandle.
4. Isigaba sesibini se-rocket sineempawu eziphezulu zokusebenza
Ngenxa yoyilo lwe-"Hungry Hippo", inqanaba le-rocket 2 liya kuvalelwa ngokupheleleyo kwinqanaba le-rocket kunye ne-fairing xa lisungulwa.Ke ngoko, inqanaba lesibini lerokhethi "Neutron" liya kuba lelona nqanaba lilula lesibini kwimbali.Ngokuqhelekileyo, inqanaba lesibini le-rocket liyinxalenye yesakhiwo sangaphandle sesithuthi sokuqalisa, esiza kubonakaliswa kwimeko enzima yomoya ophantsi ngexesha lokuqaliswa.Ngokufakela isiteji se-rocket kunye ne-"Hungry Hippo" fairing, inqanaba lesibini le-rocket ye-"Neutron" ayifuni Ukumelana noxinzelelo lwendawo yokuqalisa, kwaye inokunciphisa kakhulu ubunzima, ngaloo ndlela ifezekise ukusebenza kwendawo ephezulu.Okwangoku, inqanaba lesibini le-rocket lisalungiselelwe ukusetyenziswa ngexesha elinye.
5. Iinjini ze-rocket ezakhelwe ukuthembeka kunye nokusetyenziswa ngokuphindaphindiweyo
I-rocket ye-"Neutron" iya kunikwa amandla yi-injini ye-rocket ye-Archimedes entsha.I-Archimedes iyilwe kwaye yenziwa yiRocket Lab.Lulwelo oluphinda lusebenziseke kwakhona i-oxygen/i-methane gas generator cycle injini enokubonelela nge-1 meganewton yokutyhala kunye nemizuzwana engama-320 yempembelelo ethile yokuqala (ISP).I-rocket ye-"Neutron" isebenzisa ii-injini ze-Archimedes ezisi-7 kwinqanaba lokuqala, kunye ne-vacuum ye-1 yeenjini ze-Archimedes kwinqanaba lesibini.I-rocket ye-"Neutron" isebenzisa i-carbon fiber composite composite parts, kwaye akukho mfuneko yokuba injini ye-Archimedes ibe nokusebenza okuphezulu kakhulu kunye nobunzima.Ngokuphuhlisa i-injini elula kunye nokusebenza okuphakathi, ithayimthebhile yophuhliso kunye novavanyo inokufinyezwa kakhulu.
