  1. 1. Conjugate Heat Transfer Analysis of HPGP Thruster

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Lisa Svensson; [2024]
    Keywords : aerospace; HPGP; ECAPS; ANSYS; conjugate heat transfer; thruster; space;

    Abstract : This master's thesis was conducted in collaboration with ECAPS, where a conjugate heat transfer analysis on their High Performance Green Propulsion (HPGP) 22N thruster was done. ECAPS is a Swedish propulsion company specializing in green propulsion. They develop thrusters for spacecraft orbit and attitude control, utilizing the propellant LMP-103S. READ MORE

  2. 2. Coordinate­Free Spacecraft Formation Control with Global Shape Convergence under Vision­Based Sensing

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Omid Mirzaeedodangeh; [2023]
    Keywords : Bispherical Coordinates; 3D Formation Control; Spacecraft Formation Flying; Multiagent Systems; Prescribed Performance Control; Vision-Based Sensing; Bisfäriska Koordinater; 3D Formationskontroll; Rymdfarkostformationsflygning; Multiagentsystem; Föreskriven Prestandakontroll; Synbaserad Avkänning;

    Abstract : Formation control in multi-agent systems represents a groundbreaking intersection of various research fields with lots of emerging applications in various technologies. The realm of space exploration also can benefit significantly from formation control, facilitating a wide range of functions from astronomical observations, and climate monitoring to enhancing telecommunications, and on-orbit servicing and assembly.

  3. 3. Flight dynamics multi-mission software development for optical link planning and execution

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Giacomo Dal Toso; [2023]
    Keywords : Generic Planning Tool; Visibility Service; Link Support Service; Visibility Windows; Flight Dynamics; Mission Planning;

    Abstract : The Generic Planning Tool (GPT) is a new software package being developed by the Flight Dynamics team at DLR. In an era where laser communications are becoming more and more relevant to data transmission for space missions, the GPT’s purpose is to compute highly accurate visibility windows and provide a wide variety of support information for both satellite-to-ground and inter-satellite links.

  4. 4. Flight Dynamics Software Industrialisation for Inclined Orbits

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Pierrick Houede; [2023]
    Keywords : flight; dynamics; software; FDS; geostationary; orbit; station; keeping; uncontrolled; inclination.;

    Abstract : The geostationary orbit has many applications for Earth observation and telecommunications. Like all satellites, spacecraft in this type of orbit are affected by perturbations. These perturbations can modify the satellites trajectories and, without control, deviate them from their target position. READ MORE

  5. 5. Attitude Dynamics and Control for the Task Scheduling of Agile Earth Observation Satellites

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Renato Franze; [2023]
    Keywords : Attitude Dynamics; Attitude Control; Earth Observation; Scheduling; Attityddynamik; Attitydkontroll; Jordobservation; Uppgiftsschemaläggning;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the scheduling problem for a constellation of Earth observation satellites, focusing on modelling the attitude dynamics to assess the tasking capabilities. A target selection algorithm is developed considering the time dependent manoeuvres between targets and the time-dependent value of the observed targets. READ MORE
