Modeling and Simulation of Spacecraft Power System Based on Modelica

Abstract

Spacecraft power system simulation involves the coupling of electrical, thermal and control domains. At present, the modeling and simulation of multi-domain physical system mainly uses the single-domain software to establish a single-domain model, and solves the unified multi-domain modeling and simulation through the interface between the software or using HLA. But it cannot fully support the modeling and simulation of multi-domain physical system, and the model has poor reusability and extensibility. As a multi-domain modeling language, Modelica language supports acausal modelling, unified multi-domain modeling, object-oriented physical modeling and hybrid modeling. So it is widely used in the aerospace area. In this paper, Modelica language is used to establish module library of spacecraft power system on simulation platform MWorks, and the multi-domain simulation model of spacecraft power system is obtained by assembling each sub-model, and the performance of the model is simulated and analyzed so as to achieve the purpose of improving and verifying the model.
