1. Preliminary Design of a 30 kN Methane-Oxygen-powered Electric-Pump-fed Liquid Rocket Propulsion System
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : The design of a liquid rocket propulsion system, unlike that of a standalone system, is intertwined with the overall development of a number of associated systems and is influenced by a multitude of conditions and considerations: from the requirements needed to accomplish the mission to the rationalizations involved behind the development of each rocket system and/or component. In my thesis, the preliminary design of a “new generation” 30 kN rocket engine driven by an electric pump feed system and running on liquid methane and liquid oxygen is performed. READ MORE

3. Comparison of Control Approaches for Formation Flying of Two Identical Satellites in Low Earth Orbit
University essay from KTH/RymdteknikAbstract : Formation flying of satellites describes a mission in which a set of satellites arrange their position with respect to one another. In this paper, satellite formation flying guidance and control algorithms are investigated in terms of required velocity increment Delta-v, and tracking error for a Chief/Deputy satellite system.

4. The I2T5 : Enhancement of the Thermal Design of an Iodine Cold Gas Thruster
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : The I2T5, an iodine-propelled, cold gas thruster, developed by ThrustMe, France, is the first of its kind to make it successfully to space. Due to its simple, reliable and cost-effective design, it is a suitable propulsion system for CubeSat missions with low delta-V (ΔV) requirements. READ MORE

5. Preliminary Lander CubeSat Design for Small Asteroid Detumbling Mission
University essay from KTH/RymdteknikAbstract : Asteroid mining is expected to become reality in the near future. The first step is to redirect an asteroid to a stable Earth orbit so that mining technologies can be demonstrated. Detumbling of the asteroid is one of the important steps in asteroid redirection missions. READ MORE
