6 Mission Overview Name of Presenter 6

7 Mission Overview: Mission Statement Primary Objective: Measure Electron Density in the E region (90-120km) Secondary Objective: Test water-tight container for future use with aerogels in upper atmosphere research 8

8 Mission Overview: Mission Requirements Project requirements The GPS receiver shall survive the flight The GPS receiver shall track GPS in flight Shall provide TEC to one satellite Should expose the aerogel sample to space Should not permit dissolution of aerogel Minimum Success criteria The GPS is able to collect data The aerogel is exposed to space and is retracted into the container crestock.com 9

9 Mission Overview: Mission Statement Who will this benefit/what will your data be used for? Increase understanding of electron density of E-region Test novel technique for measuring electron density of E-region Container provides preliminary test for future JHU team experiments with Aerogels 10

10 Mission Overview: Expected Results GPS: Expect to measure TECs The TECs will be used to derive an E- region profile Aerogel mission: Expect to return aerogel container with sensor readings 11

11 Mission Overview: Theory and Concepts GPS Ionosphere is dispersive Therefore, EM waves travelling along same path at different frequencies travel at different velocities Dual frequency GPS signals return from satellite at different times This is called a phase difference Phase difference ~ TEC TEC: Total Electron Content Electron density profile calculated by relation: N(x, y, z, t) ~ dtec/dt 13

12 Mission Overview: Theory and Concepts What other research has been performed in the past? Dual Frequency GPS flown on many previous space missions Electron density measured by interferometry, radio occultations, etc in past Measurement by phase differences with DF-GPS is a novel technique 14

13 Mission Overview: Theory and Concepts Aerogels Aerogels have been used on the Star Dust mission to collect interstellar particles Possibility of studying particle composition and other properties of upper atmosphere using aerogels Sounding rocket missions with aerogels have been unsuccessful due to water contamination Small quantities of water will dissolve aerogels Proper containment and collection system necessary for any successful scientific mission 15

14 Mission Requirements: Minimum success criteria The GPS is able to collect data The Aerogel container returns on-flight data crestock.com 17

15 Mission Overview: Expected Results Expect to measure TECs The TECs will be used to derive an E- region profile Aerogel mission: expect to return aerogel in container intact 19

19 System Overview Name of Presenter 23

20 Design Overview: Aerogel Experiment Utilization of heritage elements: The University of Wyoming conducted an experiment in 2010 that was designed to collect particles using aerogel. Mission was unsuccessful due to aerogel contamination. Wyoming s design utilized an extendable arm. Similarly, our design uses a linear actuator to expose aerogel to outside conditions. Major Modifications: Structural design goal focuses on the preservation of the aerogel. Chamber and actuated gate are designed for vacuums. Prevent gasses or liquids from leaking in and contaminating the aerogel. 24

21 Design Overview: Aerogel Experiment Continued Major technology dependencies: Utilizes a position sensor in order to determine when the gate valve is open and closed. Linear actuator moves aerogel sample linearly, exposing it to outside conditions for particle collection. Actuated gate valve opens and closes the main chamber. Allows aerogel sample to pass through. Maintains vacuum inside chamber and protects sample from outside conditions (i.e. liquids and gases that are capable of contamination)

22 Design Overview: GPS Experiment Utilization of heritage elements: Dual frequency GPS have been flown Major Modifications: TEC measured in Radio/RF, but not in GPS frequencies. Major technology dependencies: Multiple satellites tracked with static and real time kinematic acuracy Dual Frequency, Omni Directional Antenna needed.

26 Design Overview: GPS Casing

27 Design Overview: Antenna TW3400/TW3402 GPS/GLONASS Antenna

28 Subsystem Definitions AGV: Actuated Gate Valve ANT: Antenna AS: Aerogel Sample EPS: Electrical Power System GPS: GPS and its housing/casing LA: Linear Actuator VC: Vacuum Chamber VCF: Vacuum Chamber Flange STR: Structure

29 Critical Interfaces Interface Name GPS/STR GPS/ANT GPS/EPS ANT/STR Brief Description The GPS will be attached to the RockSat-X deck rigidly and withstand constant accelerations of 25 G s, impulses of up to 50 G and temperatures up to 500 F without being compromised. The GPS' male port interfaces with the Antenna's TNC female connector. Data transmited from the GPS to the Rocket's ports will be in standard form based on the pin assignments specification sheet. GPS will NOT draw power from the EPS. The Antenna will be attached to the RockSat-X deck rigidly and withstand constant accelerations of 25 G s, impulses of up to 50 G and temperatures up to 500 F without being compromised. Potential Solution Durable materials such as aluminum will be used to avoid failure from these stresses. Teflon coated high temperature wire will also be considered to avoid heat damage. Lines running between the GPS and Antenna will be insulated and kept clear of moving parts. Connectors must remain fixed throughout flight. Ports.and connectors will be tested to withstand mechanical stresses, high acceleration, impulses and temperatures. Data bits should not be compromised. The antenna will be bolted to the deck tested to withstand mechanical stresses, high acceleration, impulses and temperatures. Bolts will be of a low coefficiant of expansion so as to not fracture the deck.

30 Critical Interfaces Interface Name Brief Description Potential Solution EPS/STR AGV/EPS AGV/VCF LA/EPS LA/AGV VC/STR LA/AS The electrical power system will be attached to the RockSat-X deck rigidly and withstand constant accelerations of 25 G s, impulses of up to 50 G and temperatures up to 500 F without being compromised. The actuated gate valve motor will be interfaced with the electrical power system so that the gate will be opened and sealed shut at the appropriate time. The actuated gate valve motor must successfully provide a vacuum seal before and after deployment of the aerogel sample. The seal will prevent contaminants from entering the aerogel container and destroying the experiment. The linear actuator will be connected to the electrical power system through a port hole at the bottom of the vacuum chamber. The linear actuator will respond by pushing the aerogel in and out of the vacuum chamber when necessary. The linear actuator will be programmed so that it will be extended only when the gate is open, and immediately brought back into the pressure vessel at the appropriate time. The vacuum chamber will be fixed firmly to the RockSat-X deck. This will be done in a manner so that the pressure vessel will withstand withstand constant accelerations of 25 G s, impulses of up to 50 G and temperatures up to 500 F without being compromised. The aerogel sample will be contained in a manner so that it will be rigidly fixed to the linear actuator at all times. Durable materials such as aluminum will be used to avoid failure from these stresses. Teflon coated high temperature wire will also be considered to avoid heat damage. Lines running between the motor and power supply boards will be insulated and kept clear of moving parts. A custom ordered gate valve will be chosen that will interface well with the flanges of the VC and withstand thermal stresses in order to keep the vacuum sealed. The port that feeds the EPS to LA will be designed accordingly in a custom order chamber so the connections will remain fixed throughout the flight. Sensors TBD will allow for the AGV to close only when the LA is completely inside of the vacuum chamber, to avoid the arm of the LA from keeping the gate permanently open. The pressure vessel will be design in a manner TBD so that the stresses will not cause failure at its interface with the RockSat-X deck. A structure to contain the aerogel apprppriatly will be designed so that the mechanical stresses will not cause loss or contamination of the aerogel.

31 Requirement Verification At the level you should highlight the most critical (Top 3?) system and project level requirements and how they will be verified prior to flight (an example below). Requirement Verification Method Description The GPS receiver shall receive data from launch until chute deployment. The aerogel vacuum chamber shall keep a complete seal before and after the experiment is performed. The full system shall fit on a single RockSat-X deck The sytem shall survive the vibration characteristics prescribed by the RockSat- X program. Demonstration Analysis Inspection Test We will demonstrate that the reciever works at various altitudes and through simulation software. The system s dynamical characteristics will be derived from SolidWorks, thermal and force simulations will be run to demonstrate these functions. Visual inspection will verify this requirement The system will be subjected to these vibration loads in June during testing week. 30
