  • Environmental Impact Assessment)
    BIJLAGE QB50 Precursor lancering Milieu-effectenstudie (Environmental Impact Assessment) 1 PART I : ACTIVITIES AND OBJECTIVES 1. Objective of the activity and implementation through nano-satellites The precursor launch has been procured by ISIS B.V. (Netherlands) on behalf of the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics (VKI, Belgium) in the framework of the EU FP7 QB50 Project aiming at the in-orbit testing of technologies1. The technologies tested in the precursor mission will be provided later to the QB50 community consisting of 50 universities from all over the world launching their nano-satellites into orbit during the QB50 main flight. In particular, the deployment system (i.e. the dispenser, build by ISIS B.V.), the scientific sensor units (provided by the University College London, UK), the attitude control system (developed by Surrey Space Centre, UK) and the ground segment (build by and installed at VKI) will be verified during the precursor flight. The precursor mission will test and demonstrate technologies and subsystems in order to reduce the (technological and programmatic) risks related to the future launch of the 50 CubeSats. To this end, three double nano-satellites (three “double CubeSats”) of approximate dimensions 20x10x10cm are being build and launched. Figure 1 shows a double CubeSat. Fig. 1 - QB50p1 satellite The launch will take place using a Ukrainian built Dnepr rocket, operated by the launch service provider ISC Kosmotras. The launch base is located in Dombarovsky (near Yasny, Russia). See Figure 2.

  • Trajectory Optimisation of a Partially-Reusable Rocket-Scramjet-Rocket Small Satellite Launch System
    Trajectory Optimisation of a Partially-Reusable Rocket-Scramjet-Rocket Small Satellite Launch System Sholto O. Forbes-Spyratos B.Eng. (Mechanical and Aerospace) (Hons. I) & B.Sc. (Physics) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 School of Mechanical and Mining Engineering Centre for Hypersonics Abstract The small satellite industry is expanding rapidly, driving a need for dedicated and cost-effective small satellite launchers. These small satellite launchers are currently designed to be single-use and low- cost, however; significant improvements in cost effectiveness and responsiveness may be achieved via the introduction of reusability. Unfortunately, the inclusion of reusability into small launch system designs is significantly more challenging than for larger launchers, and novel design methods may be necessary to achieve reliable and efficient re-use. One possibility for accomplishing reusability in a small launch system is the inclusion of airbreathing propulsion systems. Airbreathing propulsion systems are extremely efficient, and do not require oxidiser to be carried on-board a launch system, bringing considerable operational and design advantages. However; air- breathing engines also add complexity to a launch system, with intricate subsystems and limited flight regimes. Multi-stage systems are likely to be the most applicable to small launch systems, but these designs compound on the complexity of airbreathing launch systems, and the efficiency trade-offs between the stages, particularly for three-stage systems, are not well understood. This work devel- ops and analyses optimal payload-to-orbit trajectories for a three-stage airbreathing launcher, in order to understand the capabilities of the system and investigate the performance trade-offs between the stages during flight.

  • Advanced Simulations of Reusable Hypersonic Rocket-Powered Stages
    21st AIAA International Space Planes and Hypersonic Systems and Technologies Conference AIAA 2017-2170 6-9 March 2017, Xiamen, China Advanced Simulations of Reusable Hypersonic Rocket-Powered Stages Martin Sippel, Leonid Bussler, Alexander Kopp, Sven Krummen, Cecilia Valluchi, Jascha Wilken Space Launcher Systems Analysis (SART), DLR, Bremen, Germany Ysolde Prévereaud, Jean-Luc Vérant, Emmanuel Laroche, Fréderic Sourgen ONERA- The French Aerospace Lab, Toulouse, France Davide Bonetti DEIMOS Space S.L.U., Madrid, Spain After successful completion of the MRR, technical progress of the SpaceLiner ultra-high-speed rocket- propelled passenger transport is achieved in Phase A conceptual design work. Following geometry refinement the structural design is maturing based on extensive trade-offs. Aerodynamics are investigated by numerical CFD-simulations of the two winged stages and will be supported by windtunnel tests. Aerodynamic control surfaces of the passenger cabin and rescue capsule and its subsystems are defined. Alternative options for the capsule with innovative morphing shapes are critically investigated taking into account system aspects, structural design, and advanced CFD-simulations. Potential intercontinental flight routes, considering range-safety and sonic boom constraints as well as good reachability from major business centers, are evaluated and flight guidance schemes are established. Extensions to this trajectory model are implemented to investigate the attitude dynamics and related controllability issues of the asymmetric
