摘　　要：未来月球科研站建设及月面探测等任务需解决长期稳定能源及电力供给问题,受月面复杂环境影响,月面能源供给挑战极大。核反应堆电源具有长寿命、全天候、环境耐受力强等优势,是解决月面任务长期能源需求的理想选择,热管冷却型反应堆作为一种新型反应堆电源具有系统简单、结构紧凑、可靠性高等特点,且易于实现长寿命设计。针对目前月面能源问题,提出了采用500 W电功率月面微型热管堆电源供电的初步设想,并重点对其屏蔽设计及辐射防护问题进行了研究,提出了相关屏蔽设计方案及辐射防护措施。经过初步屏蔽设计研究,该电源可采用移动式、月面固定点位布置及浅坑式布置多种方式为月面用电设备供电,质量可约束在500 kg左右,轻质且微型,为科研站月面核反应堆电源屏蔽设计提供了思路。The construction of future lunar research stations and lunar surface exploration tasks need to address the long-term stable energy and power supply issues.Due to the complex lunar environment,the challenge of lunar surface energy supply is enormous.The nuclear reactor power has the advantages such as long lifespan,all weather,and strong environmental tolerance,making it an ideal choice to meet the long-term energy needs of lunar missions.As a new type of space reactor power,the heat pipe cooled reactor has the characteristics of simple system,compact structure,high reliability,and is easy to achieve the long lifespan design.A preliminary idea of using the hundreds of watts micro heat pipe reactor power was proposed to supply the energy demand of lunar missions.Focus on the shielding and radiation protection design,relevant radiation protection and layout suggestions were proposed.After preliminary shielding design,mobile or fixed position as well as shallow pit layout could be used to arrange the lunar surface reactor and power the electrical equipment.The mass of micro heat pipe reactor system could be limited to about 500kg with the small and lightweight features.This research could provide new ideas for the shielding design of nuclear reactor power in the lunar research stations.
