Research on advanced thermal control systems for future scientific satellites
Based on the experience of scientific satellite projects, we analyze the current issues and future plans, and conduct research and development of advanced thermal control systems for future scientific satellites. The results of our research have been fed back to the thermal control system on board the X-ray astronomy satellite Hitomi, and are being considered for application to the next scientific satellite project.
Thermal control for scientific satellite projects
In challenging projects that actively employ thermo-fluid devices, such as the Japan-Europe Mercury mission BepiColombo, which will be exposed to extreme environments that have never been experienced before, and the large X-ray telescope satellite Hitomi, new satellite development methods that have never been experienced before are required. In such challenging projects that actively employ thermo-fluid devices, conventional satellite development methods and their extensions cannot be applied. We are contributing to the success of the project from the viewpoint of heat by leading the new research and development with our academic knowledge of thermo-fluid mechanics, such as development of new materials that can withstand extreme environments, construction of thermal design and analysis methods, development of test facilities, and development of verification methods.
Application of thermo-fluid mechanics
We are contributing to various space science project activities based on our academic knowledge of thermo-fluid and its related fields. In the research of reusable rockets, we are contributing to the solution of problems related to thermo-fluid such as engine flow, cryogenic tanks, and external flow. In the area of satellite propulsion, we have contributed to the improvement of thruster analysis technology by studying the chemical reaction flow inside hydrazine thrusters, and in the area of rocket propulsion, we have developed a method for analyzing the internal flow of solid rockets and contributed to the investigation of the causes of malfunctions in M-V rockets and SRB-A rockets. In the rocket propulsion system, he developed an internal flow analysis method for solid rockets and contributed to investigating the cause of the failure of the M-V rocket and SRB-A. He has also contributed to rocket research by working on rocket flight safety and radio frequency interference problems with rocket exhaust plumes. I have also conducted theoretical research on shock wave interference in high-speed electromagnetic fluids and propulsion systems using electromagnetic fluids.

宇宙航空研究開発機構研究開発報告 JAXA-RR-, 5(05-014) 1-8, 2006For the last few years, several deep space propulsion systems making use of the energy of the solar wind have been proposed and researched. Thrust production mechanisms of these propulsion systems, however, have not been understood well, hence they are now intensively studied in the United State and in Japan. In this paper, the thrust characteristics of the Magnetic Sail, which is considered as one of the simplest system in these propulsion systems, are quantitatively obtained by numerical simulations, which successfully revealed the momentum transferring process from the solar wind to the coil of the Magnetic Sail. Also, other propulsion systems making use of the solar wind are introduced in comparison with the Magnetic Sail, so as to reveal the unknown physics and the applicability to deep space missions.

(5) 709-714, Aug 1, 2005A magnetic sail is a unique propulsion system, which travels interplanetary space by capturing the energy of the solar wind. In order to simulate the interaction between the artificial magnetic field produced around a spacecraft and the solar wind, a scaled-down laboratory experiment was conducted in a space chamber. Preliminary results showed some strong interactions between the high-density (10(exp 19)/cu m) and high-velocity (17 km/s) plasma flow and an artificial magnetic field of about 1 T, hence the possibility of the magnetic sail simulator is provided; however, further improvement is required to realize a collision-less solar wind plasma flow in the laboratory.

宇宙航空研究開発機構研究開発報告 JAXA-RR-, 4(04-041) 1-12, 2005For a vertical-landing rocket, one of the most important issues is the reliability of vertical soft landing using the opposing jet of the rocket engine. The interaction between engine plumes and the free stream becomes important in the design of an attitude control system in the powered deceleration phase of landing. Since this interacting region has highly nonlinear characteristics, extremely unsteady motion is observed. Measurements for this study were performed in the JAXA 2 x 2 m low-speed wind tunnel using PIV (particle image velocimetry), which improves our imagery and understanding of the complicated flow behavior. From the PIV measurements we obtained two component velocity fields of the opposing jet flow in a vertical model rocket landing, and derived the shape of the opposing jet, stagnation point, and intensity of turbulence. It was also found that the aspect of flow separation in the wake region was changed by the opposing jet.

2004 170-171, 2004For achieving a fully reusable rocket vertical as a future space transportation system, the conceptual designs of vehicle systems are presently being conducted in ISAS/JAXA. In this system design, aerodynamic design considerations are made on a vertical take-off and vertical landing vehicle. One of the considerable issues of a vertical lander is the effect of the interaction between a supersonic nozzle jet and a free-stream when the vehicle is decelerated by the main engine thrust in the landing phase. In order to investigate the influence of such counter-flow interaction in detail, wind tunnel tests were conducted in low speed wind tunnel in ISAS and ISTA/JAXA. The aerodynamic forces and pressure on the base surface were measured by using a scale model of the vehicle. The velocity distribution was measured by a particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique. The aerodynamic characteristics in the vertical landing phase are affected by not only the reduction of the base pressure but also the flow separation around the model side.

2004 612-613, 2004A numerical analysis of the high-speed plasma flow and the electromagnetic field around a magnetic dipole was performed to investigate acceleration processes of the Magnetoplasma Sail (MPS). In an attempt to take into account deviations of the flow characteristics from the ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) predictions, the particle-in-cell (PIC) model was used with a reduced dimension of the flow and the electromagnetic field. The induction current and the induced electromagnetic field around the magnetic dipole were computed, and the acceleration force acting on the magnetic dipole was roughly estimated. Important scaling parameters in an interaction between the rarefied high-speed plasma and the weak magnetic field are also discussed.

2004 614-615, 2004Magnetic sail and Magnetic plasma sail are propulsion systems that make use of the solar wind. These propulsion systems create a large magnetic field around a spacecraft and the magnetic field captures the energy of the solar wind. These propulsion systems are suited for deep space missions because it is estimated to achieve high thrust and efficiency. But there are some problems about these propulsion systems. The process of force transfering from the solar wind to the spacecraft is not understood in detail, thus the metods of estimating thrust vector and controlling thrust vector are not established. We simulated the interaction between the solar wind and the magnetic field of the spacecraft numerically, and verified the method of estimating thrust vector. Additionally we researched the methods of controlling thrust vector.

宇宙航空研究開発機構特別資料 JAXA-SP-, JAXA-SP-03-001(03-001) 68-71, 2004A magnetic sail is the way to propel a spacecraft by the solar wind in the interplanetary space. Although original concept of the magnetic sail depends solely on very large magnetic field generated by using such device as superconductors coil, in 2001, Winglee et al. proposed an efficient method to realize a huge magnetic field around a spacecraft with an assistance of plasma emission. From their theoretical analysis of what they call as mini-magnetospheric plasma propulsion (M2P2), it was shown that if a dense plasma were exhausted near the center of the dipole magnetic field, the magnetic field can be expanded far away from the spacecraft, thus the energy of the solar wind can be captured by this huge magnetic field in spite of very low-density solar wind. Based on the idea of such plasma sail, firstly studied were deep space missions targeting at some outer satellites like Jupiter. Plasma sail has great advantage against other electric propulsion systems because of its ability to produce larger thrust to power ratio. However, the thrust formula shown by Winglee et al. is doubtful in some respects. Therefore, an analysis model is discussed that can describe a process of the magnetic field inflation accompanied by plasma emission from the spacecraft.

The Institute of Space and Astronautical Science report. S.P. : Aerodynamics, Thermophysics, Thermal Protection, Flight System Analysis and Design of Asteroid Sample Return Capsule, 17(17) 133-144, Mar, 2003In order to study the onset of the ablation gas-induced boundary layer transition during the reentry phase, heat flux measurement through infrared thermography has been conducted on the capsule-shape body with gas injection from the porous material surface in the shock wind tunnel. In the present simulation experiment, Reynolds number and the ratio of the gas injection mass flow rate to the main mass flow is parametrically changed as similarity law parameters taking account of those in the flight environment; not a few assumptions are applied without verification; the effect of temperature of the boundary layer and the wall etc. At the local Reynolds number of 4 x 10(exp 4) and the ratio of gas injection to main flow is about 2 percent, the heat flux enhancement at the skirt part of the capsule model has been observed and it is considered to be an evidence of the boundary layer transition form laminar to turbulence.
