Session
Pre-Conference Poster Session I
Location
Utah State University, Logan, UT
Abstract
DHV Technology is a company specialized on the designing, manufacturing and testing of solar panels for CubeSats and Small Satellites. In this presentation is discussed about solar panels of CubeSat missions developed for Scientific missions with Space Agencies involved as CNES, ESA and NASA Goddard.
DHV Technology have developed the solar panels for Angels mission developed by HEMERIA and CNES based on a 12U platform, the solar panels for GTOSat mission developed by NASA Goddard based on a 3U CubeSat and the solar panels of TRISAT-R mission developed by Maribor University and funded by ESA using a 3U CubeSat.
Angels mission is a LEO mission for Earth Observation with a payload developed by Syrlinksand Thales Alenia Space to analyze the state of the oceans, GTOSat mission is a GTO mission to acquire new data about high energy particles and TRISAT-R mission is a MEO mission for in-orbit demonstration.
The requirements on solar panels for LEO, MEO and GTO missions will be analyzed in this presentation and other subjects as qualification process and the quality assurance will be discussed. There are some key points that are analyzed in this presentation as the features of the solar panels for high radiation environment, the resistance torque analysis and the harness design, the electrical losses analysis and the ATOX degradation analysis.
