Institut für Raumfahrtsysteme Systemanalyse Raumtransport (SART) 28359 Bremen Master Thesis Report Submitted to Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree: Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering Supervised by: Etienne Dumont Nickolay Ivchenko Abstract Solid Rocket Motors (SRMs) are employed in many space launch applications from the booster rockets on the now retired Space Shuttle to the new European launch vehicle Vega. Preliminary design of these complex three dimensional SRMs, given certain requirements and limitations can be considered as an optimization process where a best geometrical solution is sought resulting in a desirable thrust profile. In this project, a derivate free direct search package titled NOMAD is employed together with the internally developed numerical burnback analysis tool SRP-GEO and ballistic solver SRP. An analytical model for the burnback analysis tool is also developed to take advantage of the support for surrogate functions within NOMAD. Due to the local nature of the optimizer, the results for complex geometries are shown to converge toward configurations different from the globally optimal geometries. Yet in most instances, the resulting calculated thrust profiles are shown to correlate well with the desired counterpart. This highlights the importance of carefully chosen initial values and boundaries while also emphasize the many possible solutions to a single problem. Keywords: SRP, Solid rocket motor, grain geometry, derivative free optimization, internal ballistics, NOMAD, solid rocket propellant, numerical burnback analysis, analytical burnback analysis, thrust history Acknowledgement This is a master thesis project performed in DLR Bremen within the SART division during 2011-2012. During the course, I have acquired much knowledge in the field of preliminary design of Solid Rocket Motors and gained a firm understanding in many other related topics in rocket design. I have also acquired skills in software design and general optimization theory which are of use in all areas of engineering. Even though the project required slightly more time than expected, it can be considered a success. Following, I would like to show my appreciation to a few colleagues and friends. I would like to express my deepest gratitude and respect to my DLR supervisor, Etienne Dumont for supporting me during the course of seven months while performing this thesis. Without his guidance and clever insights in all areas of the work, this thesis would not have been possible. I would also like to express my sincere appreciation to my supervisor in KTH Sweden, Nickolay Ivchenko for the insights and comments given of the final report. I would further like to thank Aaron Koch for the help in solving pesky integration issues between Fortran and C++ during late evenings. I would likewise like to thank the whole SART group and Martin Sippel for providing me support and the uplifting spirit necessary for me to finish this thesis. Lastly, I would like to give a special nod to the Awesome Study Group (ASG) of October 2011 - Mars 2012 for being awesome.

  • Conceptual Design for Vega New Upper Stage
    62nd International Astronautical Congress, Cape Town, SA. Copyright ©2011 by the International Astronautical Federation. All rights reserved. IAC-11-D2.3.4 VENUS - CONCEPTUAL DESIGN FOR VEGA NEW UPPER STAGE Dr. Menko Wisse Astrium Space Transportation, Launchers, Bremen, Germany, [email protected] Georg Obermaier Astrium Space Transportation, Propulsion & Equipment, Munich, Germany, [email protected] Etienne Dumont DLR-SART, Bremen, Germany, [email protected] Thomas Ruwwe DLR Space Administration, Bonn, Germany, [email protected] With the first launch of VEGA approaching, the European launch vehicle family will soon be completed. VEGA aims at transporting small research- and earth observation satellites to Low Earth Orbit (LEO). Ongoing investigations show the opportunity for a performance improvement of the launcher to cope with the market demand for evolution in P/L mass. Therefore, studies to enhance the capabilities of the launch vehicle were started. The German Space Administration (DLR) has funded the VENUS (VEGA New Upper Stage) studies on behalf of the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology with Astrium Space Transportation as Prime Contractor and the DLR institute for Space Launcher Systems Analysis (SART) as subcontractor, in order to identify and assess the potential of increasing the upper stage performance. The second slice of the study, the so-called VENUS-2 study (support code FKZ50RL0910), was started in July 2009 and has been finalized mid 2011. VENUS- 2 aims at investigating possible evolutions of the VEGA-launcher upper stage. In particular, conceptual lay-outs for new storable propellant upper stages have been investigated including engines. The VENUS-2 study is divided into three study phases.

  • Arianespace Procures First Batch of Upgraded Vega-C Rockets, Preps for Last Ariane 5 Order
    Arianespace procures first batch of upgraded Vega-C rockets, preps for last Ariane 5 order September 28, 2017 Stephen Clark This artist’s illustration shows the lineup of European rockets currently flying or scheduled to debut in the next few years. From left to right: Vega, Vega-C, Ariane 5 ECA, Ariane 62 and Ariane 64. Credit: ESA–David Ducros, Jacky Huart, 2016 Arianespace has split its third order of Vega rockets from Italy’s Avio between old and new versions of the solid-fueled booster, as officials prepare to build a final batch of around 18 Ariane 5 rockets before switching to the next-generation Ariane 6 in the early 2020s. The French launch company announced Wednesday the signature of a long-anticipated contract for 10 more Vega launchers from Avio, Vega’s prime contractor. It marks the third order of Vega rockets from the Italian manufacturer, bringing the total number of Vega vehicles purchased to 26. Six of the vehicles ordered by Arianespace will come in the same basic Vega configuration that has successfully launched 10 times since debuting in February 2012. Avio will also build the first four upgraded Vega-C launchers, featuring more powerful rocket motors and an enlarged payload fairing to haul bigger satellites into orbit. Meanwhile, Arianespace is in the final stages of negotiating with its parent company, Ariane Group, to order around 18 more Ariane 5 rockets, the last batch of Ariane 5s to be built after more than 20 years of launches. Arianespace expects to sell the additional Ariane 5 flights to commercial customers and European governments for launches through the early 2020s.

  • Investigations of Future Expendable Launcher Options
    IAC-11-D2.4.8 Investigations of Future Expendable Launcher Options Martin Sippel, Etienne Dumont, Ingrid Dietlein [email protected] Tel. +49-421-24420145, Fax. +49-421-24420150 Space Launcher Systems Analysis (SART), DLR, Bremen, Germany The paper summarizes recent system study results on future European expendable launcher options investigated by DLR-SART. In the first part two variants of storable propellant upper segments are presented which could be used as a future evolvement of the small Vega launcher. The lower composite consisting of upgraded P100 and Z40 motors is assumed to be derived from Vega. An advanced small TSTO rocket with a payload capability in the range of 1500 kg in higher energy orbits and up to 3000 kg supported by additional strap-on boosters is further under study. The first stage consists of a high pressure solid motor with a fiber casing while the upper stage is using cryogenic propellants. Synergies with other ongoing European development programs are to be exploited. The so called NGL should serve a broad payload class range from 3 to 8 tons in GTO reference orbit by a flexible arrangement of stages and strap-on boosters. The recent SART work focused on two and three-stage vehicles with cryogenic and solid propellants. The paper presents the promises and constraints of all investigated future launcher configurations.
