  • The NASA In-Space Propulsion Technology Project's Current
    NASA In-Space Propulsion Technologies and Their Infusion Potential David J. Anderson,1 Eric J. Pencil,2 Todd Peterson3 and Daniel Vento4 NASA Glenn Research Center, Cleveland, OH 44135 Michelle M. Munk5 and Louis J. Glaab6 NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA 23681 and John W. Dankanich7 AeroDank, Inc., Cleveland, OH 44135 The In-Space Propulsion Technology (ISPT) program has been developing in-space propulsion technologies that will enable or enhance NASA robotic science missions. The ISPT program is currently developing technology in four areas that include Propulsion System Technologies (Electric and Chemical), Entry Vehicle Technologies (Aerocapture and Earth entry vehicles), Spacecraft Bus and Sample Return Propulsion Technologies (components and ascent vehicles), and Systems/Mission Analysis. Three technologies are ready for flight infusion: 1) the high-temperature Advanced Material Bipropellant Rocket (AMBR) engine providing higher performance; 2) NASA’s Evolutionary Xenon Thruster (NEXT) ion propulsion system, a 0.6-7 kW throttle-able gridded ion system; and 3) Aerocapture technology development with investments in a family of thermal protection system (TPS) materials and structures; guidance, navigation, and control (GN&C) models of blunt-body rigid aeroshells; and aerothermal effect models. Two component technologies that will be ready for flight infusion in the near future will be Advanced Xenon Flow Control System, and ultra-lightweight propellant tank technologies. Future focuses for ISPT are sample return missions and other spacecraft bus technologies like: 1) Mars Ascent Vehicles (MAV); 2) multi-mission technologies for Earth Entry Vehicles (MMEEV) for sample return missions; and 3) electric propulsion for sample return and low cost missions.

  • An Analysis of Green Propulsion Applied to NASA Missions
    An Analysis of Green Propulsion Applied to NASA Missions Presented at Space Propulsion 2014 Cologne, GERMANY May 19-22nd, 2014 Eric H. Cardiff1, Henry W. Mulkey2, and Caitlin E. Bacha3, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, MD 20771 The advantages of green propulsion for five mission classes are examined, including a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) mission (GPM), a Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO) mission (SDO), a High Earth Orbit (HEO) mission (MMS), a lunar mission (LRO), and a planetary mission (MAVEN). The propellant mass benefits are considered for all five missions, as well as the effects on the tanks, propellant loading, thruster throughput, thermal considerations, and range requirements for both the AF-M315E and LMP-103S propellants. Nomenclature ACS = Attitude Control System MMH = Monomethyl Hydrazine CDR = Critical Design Review MMS = Magnetospheric Multi Scale mission ECAPS = Ecological Advanced Propulsion NASA = National Aeronautics and Space Systems Administration GEO = Geosynchronous Orbit NOFBX = Nitrous Oxide Fuel Blend GSFC = Goddard Space Flight Center NTO = Nitrogen Tetroxide GPIM = Green Propellant Infusion Mission PRISMA = Prototype Research Instruments and GPM = Global Precipitation Measurement Space Mission Advancement HEO = High Earth Orbit RE = Earth Radii IA = International Agreement SCAPE = Self-Contained Atmospheric Protective Isp = Specific Impulse (s) Ensemble LEO = Low Earth Orbit SDO = Solar Dynamics Observatory LRO = Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter SNSB = Swedish National Space Board mf = Spacecraft final (or dry) mass STMD = Space Technology Mission Directorate mi = Spacecraft initial (or wet) mass TDRSS = Tracking and Data Relay Satellite MAVEN = Mars Atmosphere and Volatile System Evolution mission TRL = Technology Readiness Level ME = Main Engine (for SDO) I.

Abstract: Current research trends have advanced the use of “green propellants” on a wide scale for spacecraft in various space missions; mainly for environmental sustainability and safety concerns. Small satellites, particularly micro and nanosatellites, evolved from passive planetary-orbiting to being able to perform active orbital operations that may require high-thrust impulsive capabilities. Thus, onboard primary and auxiliary propulsion systems capable of performing such orbital op- erations are required. Novelty in primary propulsion systems design calls for specific attention to miniaturization, which can be achieved, along the above-mentioned orbital transfer capabilities, by utilizing green monopropellants due to their relative high performance together with simplicity, and better storability when compared to gaseous and bi-propellants, especially for miniaturized systems. Owing to the ongoing rapid research activities in the green-propulsion field, it was necessary to extensively study and collect various data of green monopropellants properties and performance that would further assist analysts and designers in the research and development of liquid propulsion sys- tems.

German Aerospace Center (DLR), Institute of Space Propulsion, Hardthausen, Germany * Corresponding Author: [email protected] Basic research activities and thrust chamber oriented technology development for rocket and air-breathing (Ram-/SCRamjet) propulsion systems are conducted at Test Complex M11. History of M11 dates back to the year 1966, when the first building was constructed. Since its existence, lots of scientific results could be elaborated in the multifarious working areas and have been published in a large number of publications in journals and on conferences. Today’s research and development activities are focused on combustion, ignition, cooling and chamber processes of advanced green propellants for rockets, satellites and orbital propulsion systems. Furthermore material testing as well as propellant synthesis and analysis are performed. This publication gives a short overview of the history of the test complex and delivers an inside into current research activities. 1. HISTORICAL ACTIVITIES [1] (STudentenRaketeN). Fig. 2 shows the current view of Test Complex M11 at DLR site Lampoldshausen the M11 with the student test field M11.5 on the left was built in the 60s of the 20th century.
