Project HUSP: H umidity/ U V-c S ensor P ayload

The Project HUSP team, led by Josh Hignight, focused on investigating humidity variations and UV-C impacts in the ozone layer using specialized payloads. Key team members contributed expertise in software development, electrical design, thermal needs, and construction. The project's hypothesis suggested an expected rise in humidity linked to increased UV-C levels causing ozone breakdown. However, issues arose when UV-C leads failed before reaching the targeted altitude. Results on temperature and humidity levels were analyzed, providing insights into atmospheric conditions.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Project HUSP:Humidity/UV-c Sensor Payload Team Parro Presentation of Flight Results CSBF, Palestine, TX Team Parro: Project HUSP

  2. Flight Positions Josh Hignight – Project manager and software development Jason Rollins – Responsible for electrical work including power consumption, sensor interfacing, electrical design, and balloon sat testing Matt VanKerhkove – Thermal design and acquisition of parts for thermal needs, as well as thermal testing Tim Butler – In charge of things dealing with constrution Team Parro: Project HUSP

  3. Hypothesis There is an expected rise in humidity at the ozone layer, believed to be caused by an increase in UV-c. Team Parro: Project HUSP

  4. Payload • Humidity sensor • Temperature sensor Team Parro: Project HUSP

  5. Science • Ozone absorbs UV between 200nm and 310nm • This breaks up the ozone from O3 → O2 + O • The O then forms with water to form two hydroxyl molecules O + H2O → 2HO • Each of these OH’s then form with methane, and other pollutants to form water. Team Parro: Project HUSP

  6. Problems • UV-c leads broke before reaching a sufficient altitude • HOBO powered up at 7:30 AM and then powered downed at 7:30:05 AM Team Parro: Project HUSP

  7. Results Team Parro: Project HUSP

  8. Temperature vs AltitudeHOBO 1 & HOBO 2 Team Parro: Project HUSP
