Abstract
With the rapid development of China's space industry, digitization and intelligent is the tendency of the future. The applications of the waveguide are gradually widespread. During the thermal test phase, the routes of the test waveguides are similar for each spacecraft. Although the waveguides are highly standardized, so far it needs engineers to design the particular route of the test waveguidess, then map the engineering drawing for every test. In order to efficiently design the route of waveguide, it needs to design an application to help the engineers. With the help of the MFC(Microsoft Foundation Classes) and the pro/toolkit, it is easily to do the modeling and simulation. After automatic design the particular the route of the waveguide, the API of AutoCAD type library is used to help to modify the engineer drawing. Engineers can supervise every step of this application, and easily to modify the key parameters.
Highlights
Waveguides are widely used in spacecraft such as satellites, space station and so on
The waveguide is highly standardized and the routes of the waveguide are similar, so the computer- aided design technology can be used to help engineers design the routes of the test waveguides
This report is present a foundation research about the computer- aided design technology which based on the Pro/E secondary development tool (Pro/toolkit) and AutoCAD secondary development API (AutoCAD type library), with the help such technologies the route of waveguides can be automatic designed in a result of labour saving
Summary
Waveguides are widely used in spacecraft such as satellites, space station and so on. Compare with the coaxial cable, the advantage of waveguide is lower attenuation and high power [1]. To receive the signal of the spacecraft, waveguides need to be applied. There are dozens of test every year, the waveguide path needs to be redesigned for each test. It will consume engineers a lot of time and effort to design the test waveguides route and engineer drawings. This report is present a foundation research about the computer- aided design technology which based on the Pro/E secondary development tool (Pro/toolkit) and AutoCAD secondary development API (AutoCAD type library), with the help such technologies the route of waveguides can be automatic designed in a result of labour saving
