Dynamics & Control Anne DeLion 6 February 2001 Preliminary Design
Two types of deployment: Spinning Linear All calculations done for Hab, but code can easily be converted to work for ERV Tether Mass ~ 500kg Tether Mass < 1% of Hab mass, therefore it is considered negligible Tether Reel System ~ tether mass [Powell] Deployment
Assumptions: Tether will deploy smoothly and uniformly All DV manoeuvres will be instantaneous Connected Hab/NTR modelled as a cylinder Spinning Deployment: Spin up connected Hab/NTR Release Hab & NTR to deploy the tether As the tether deploys, the rotation rate of the system will decrease After deployment, a second DV gives vehicles 2rpm spinrate Spinning Deployment
Spinning Deployment • Advantages • Constant tension on tether during deployment • Easy to implement • Disadvantages • Requires greater DV • Possible attitude problems
Linear Deployment • Deployment by initial linear velocity, spin up after tether deployment • Assumptions: • Tether will deploy smoothly off a reel • Initial velocity will be given by pyrotechnics, and will remain constant unless friction or braking is considered in the reel system • System c.m. will remain constant with respect to the orbit reference frame
Linear Deployment Method: • After initial velocity, the tether will have to be decelerated. • Reel/Braking system • Friction included in reel
Linear Deployment • Advantages • Lower DV needed for gravity spin-up • Disadvantages • How to keep constant tension? • What system to slow velocity of deployment?
