Book A Shadowgraph Study of Two Proposed Shuttle C Launch Vehicle Configurations

Download or read book A Shadowgraph Study of Two Proposed Shuttle C Launch Vehicle Configurations written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A shadowgraph study concerning two of the proposed Shuttle-C launch vehicle configurations are presented. These shadowgraphs were obtained from a wind tunnel test performed in Marshall Space Flight Center's 14-in trisonic wind tunnel at various angles-of-attack and roll angles over the Mach range of 0.6 to 4.96. Variations in payload bay length were also evaluated. Major flow field phenomena can easily be seen in the shadowgraphs. Shadowgraphs are a valuable resource. They are used in the analysis of the external flow conditions the launch vehicle encounters through the ascent stage of flight. Subsequent reports will contain shadowgraph studies for other launch vehicle configurations also tested in the Marshall Space Flight Center's 14-in trisonic wind tunnel. Springer, A. M. and Pokora, D. C. Marshall Space Flight Center...

Book A Shadowgraph Study of Space Transportation System Sts

Download or read book A Shadowgraph Study of Space Transportation System Sts written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A shadowgraph study of the space transportation system (STS), the space shuttle launch vehicle, is presented. The shadowgraphs presented in this study were obtained over the past 10 years from wind tunnel tests performed in the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center's 14-Inch Trisonic Wind Tunnel during the space shuttle development program. Shadowgraphs of the STS at various angles-of-attack and roll angles are shown for the Mach range of 0.6 to 4.96. The major flow field phenomena over the mated vehicle configuration are shown in these shadowgraphs. Shadowgraphs are also presented for the orbiter without the lower stack (reentry configuration) and the lower stack without the orbiter. A short study of external tank nose geometry effects on the mated vehicles flow field is presented. These shadowgraphs are used in the aerothermodynamic analysis of the external flow conditions the launch vehicle encounters during the ascent stage of flight. Springer, A. M.

Book A Shadowgraph Study of the National Launch System s 1 1 2 Stage Vehicle Configuration and Heavy Lift Launch Vehicle Configuration Using the Marshall Space Flight Center s 14 Inch Trisonic Wind Tunnel

Download or read book A Shadowgraph Study of the National Launch System s 1 1 2 Stage Vehicle Configuration and Heavy Lift Launch Vehicle Configuration Using the Marshall Space Flight Center s 14 Inch Trisonic Wind Tunnel written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-06 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A shadowgraph study of the National Launch System's (NLS's) 1 1/2 stage and heavy lift launch vehicle (HLLV) configurations is presented. Shadowgraphs are shown for the range of Mach numbers from Mach 0.6 to 5.0 at various angles-of-attack and roll angles. Since the 1 1/2 stage configuration is generally symmetric, no shadowgraphs of any roll angle are shown for this configuration. The major flow field phenomena over the NLS 1 1/2 stage and HLLV configurations are shown in the shadowgraphs. These shadowgraphs are used in the aerothermodynamic analysis of the external flow conditions the launch vehicle would encounter during the ascent stage of flight. The shadowgraphs presented in this study were obtained from configurations tested in the Marshall Space Flight Center's 14-Inch Trisonic Wind Tunnel during 1992.

Book Shuttle C Utilization for Assembly of the Rephased Freedom Configuration

Download or read book Shuttle C Utilization for Assembly of the Rephased Freedom Configuration written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-10 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The utilization of the Shuttle-C Heavy Lift Launch Vehicle (HLLV) to augment the Shuttle orbiter to deliver to earth orbit elements for assembly of a rephased definition of Space Station Freedom is assessed. A past history of previous HLLV studies performed with respect to Freedom launch and assembly is reviewed and conclusions extrapolated that are appropriate to consider for the new rephased Freedom definition. The rephased Freedom definition is explained, two utilization scenarios are developed and related assessments are provided for Shuttle-C utilization early in the assembly sequence or utilization later in theon-orbit build up phase.

Book Space Shuttle 2 Advanced Space Transportation System

Download or read book Space Shuttle 2 Advanced Space Transportation System written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-10 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To determine the best configuration from all candidate configurations, it was necessary first to calculate minimum system weights and performance. To optimize the design, it is necessary to vary configuration-specific variables such as total system weight, thrust-to-weight ratios, burn durations, total thrust available, and mass fraction for the system. Optimizing each of these variables at the same time is technically unfeasible and not necessarily mathematically possible. However, discrete sets of data can be generated which will eliminate many candidate configurations. From the most promising remaining designs, a final configuration can be selected. Included are the three most important designs considered: one which closely approximates the design criteria set forth in a Marshall Space Flight Center study of the Shuttle 2; the configuration used in the initial proposal; and the final configuration. A listing by cell of the formulas used to generate the aforementioned data is included for reference. Adinaro, James N. and Benefield, Philip A. and Johnson, Shelby D. and Knight, Lisa K.
