Attitude control plays an important role in low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Agility of such systems are quite crucial and degree of agility can be determined by the help of the maneuver capability of actuators. Typical actuating systems in a low-earth orbit satellite are Control Moment Gyroscopes (CMG), and the electric motor type used in such systems is the brushless DC motor. In this study, an outer-rotor design of permanent magnet brushless DC motor to be used in a satellite application is investigated and, the main characteristics and performance parameters such as torque per unit weight, torque per unit volume, inertia contribution and power efficiency are discussed. This design is compared with various designs in a finite-element analysis environment. In conclusion, the overall performance of the motor is handled and distinct design advantages are stated.

Nonlinear controller designs for a reaction wheel actuated observatory satellite
Doruk, Reşat Özgür; Kocaoğlan, Erol; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008)
In this research, nonlinear attitude controllers are designed for a low earth orbit satellite intended to be used in observatory missions. The attitude is represented by the Modified Rodriguez Parameters (MRP) which is a minimal representation providing a fully invertible kinematics. As a difference from the classical satellite models existent in the literature, the model of this work incorporates the dynamics of the reaction wheel (actuator) including a brushless dc motor which is armature controlled. The ...
GPS-based real-time orbit determination of artificial satellites using kalman, particle, unscented kalman and H-infinity filters
Erdoğan, Eren; Karslıoğlu, Mahmut Onur; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2011)
Nowadays, Global Positioning System (GPS) which provide global coverage, continuous tracking capability and high accuracy has been preferred as the primary tracking system for onboard real-time precision orbit determination of Low Earth Orbiters (LEO). In this work, real-time orbit determination algorithms are established on the basis of extended Kalman, unscented Kalman, regularized particle, extended Kalman particle and extended H-infinity filters. Particularly, particle filters which have not been applie...
Forecasting of ionospheric electron density trough for characterization of aerospace medium
Kocabaş, Zeynep; Tulunay, Yurdanur; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2009)
Modeling the ionosphere, where the effects of solar dynamo becomes more effective to space based and ground borne activities, has an undeniable importance for telecommunication and navigation purposes. Mid-latitude electron density trough is an interesting phenomenon in characterizing the behavior of the ionosphere, especially during disturbed conditions. Modeling the mid-latitude electron density trough is a very popular research subject which has been studied by several researchers until now. In this work...
Su2 real gas models’ performance predictions on a cold gas thruster
Aksel, Mehmet Haluk; Baran, Özgür Uğraş (2021-04-01)
Soğuk gaz itki sistemleri 1960’lı yıllardan bu yana özellikle uyduların yörünge kontrolünde tercih edilen sistemler olmuşlardır.Yakıt tankındaki yüksek basıncın görev süresince azalması nedeniyle, tank içindeki yakıtta oldukça düşük sıcaklıklar gözlenmektedir. Ayrıca itici lülesinin çıkışında da, vakuma yakın basınçlara genleşen yakıtın sıcaklığı oldukça düşmektedir. Bu koşullar altında, itki sisteminin performansının tasarım sürecinde gerçekçi olarak tahmin edilebilmesi için, açık kaynaklı, sıkıştırıla...
Design of an irradiation test facility for space applications
Kızılören, Dilek; Demirköz, Melahat Bilge; Department of Physics (2014)
Space radiation damages electronic components of spacecraft. Damages are due to cosmic rays which consist of protons, photons, electrons, and heavy nuclei. Function- ality and performance of the electronic components in flight depend on the orbital pa- rameters of spacecrafts and exposure time. The space radiation causes three types of effects and these are categorized as Single Event Effects (SEEs), Total Ionizing Dose (TID) Effects and Non-Ionizing Dose Displacement Damage Effects. Radiation hard- ness ass...
