Mr Daniel Gabor Kovacs (von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, University of Liege)27/10/2022, 09:30Test Case Campaign 2022Presentation
Nowadays, besides the goal of enabling sustainable and more economical space access, the accumulation of inoperable objects is rising environmental and safety concerns. Various re-entry estimation software is being developed to promote the design of completely demisable spacecraft and hence mitigate the growth of space debris. Such toolkits perform dynamic analysis to compute the states of the...

The Navier Stokes Multi Block (NSMB) solver is developed in a consortium of different companies and universities in Switzerland, France and Germany. From the start the solver was designed to be used for hypersonic flow simulations, and it has been used in a large variety of ESA and EU funded space projects, among them the IXV (including the post-flight analysis) and the RETALT (Re-usable...

Dr Bodo Reimann (German Aerospace Center (DLR))27/10/2022, 10:20Test Case Campaign 2022Presentation
The DLR results of the ATD3 test case 2022 will be presented. The interaction of a free-flying ring with a two-dimensional curved shock wave has been simulated using the DLR TAU code. The flow solver was coupled with a 6-DoF motion module, dynamic grid adaptation has been used to capture the shock waves. A comparison between the numerical results and the experimental test case data will be...

In the frame of the ATD3 working group, coordinated by ESA and CNES, a test case was proposed, representative of the interaction between two fragments generated by the break-up of a space vehicle during the re-entry.

The test was performed experimentally at the VKI Institute, and is described in detail in [1]. A ring is initially suspended over a cylinder (Figure 1), and when the flow enters... -

Between 2000 and 2020, the number of man-made objects in orbit around the Earth has increased by approximately 82%, reaching a value close to 20000 objects, from which 53% are fragmentation debris. The current tendency is for the number of space objects to grow with the emergence of new satellite and CubeSat constellations.
To avoid the cluttering of space and decrease the risk of in-orbit...

These 10 last years, the prediction of the space debris survivability during their re-entry and the associated prospective risk on ground are more and more in the scope of scientific research due to its complex multi-physics modeling and its crucial industrial applications, setting-up a permanent trade-off between fidelity of results and CPU costs. The use of the so-called ”high-fidelity” CFD...
