Abstract
During space flights, repast and preparation will supply chances and sites to assemble and decompress for astronauts. The repast equipment, layout, environment of kitchen, and repast procedure will have effect on astronauts’ nutrition and health. In this paper, based on the analysis of man–machine–environment system design of the foreign space kitchen, corresponding Chinese kitchen engineering restricts, the thinking of “Integrated Space Kitchen” is proposed. Integration function of storage, preparation, repast, clean and garbage management of the kitchen is realized through design of region merging and equipments integration. This makes the astronauts repast in a convenient, clean, and beautiful environment. The man–machine–environment system design of kitchen’s location, size, layout, equipment, hygiene, environment and repast procedure was also analyzed. Finally, research progresses on layout, putting style to table, minimum repast area, and local smell control in repast area were discussed.
