Abstract:The near-space long duration lighterthanair has great applications, so the high altitude airship and superpressure balloon have been attracting worldwide interest. The long duration flight of superpressure balloon in the near-space had been successfully achieved abroad. To accomplish the long duration flight of airship in the near-space, the core technologies in the fields of environment perdition, airship envelope material, power supply, propulsion, etc, need breakthrough advancements. This study analyzes the environment elements of the near-space, and researches the influence of the atmospheric density, atmospheric temperature, wind field, ozone, and radiation on the airship. Moreover, the altitude, trajectory and pressure control technologies of the superpressure balloon are investigated, and the feasible technologies for the high altitude airship long duration flight are proposed, which is useful for high altitude airship design, manufacture and flight.
