Refueling of Small Sats with Propellant Pods for Long Term Space Flight
Session
Weekend Session 7: Science/Mission Payloads - Research & Academia II
Location
Utah State University, Logan, UT
Abstract
In general, the vector value function r(t) = (a cos(t), a sin(t), t), it parametrizes the helix structure. It has been designed with the overall width 5 mm to accommodate within the tank volume wherein also ensuring the optimized liquid transmission rate. Revolution of 30 percent of the pitch 150mm, the revolution and pitch have been designed to accommodate the tank’s dimension, which in turn in accordance to the propellant mass requirement.
