Translational and Rotational Dynamics and Control Of an All-Thruster Satellite Considering Fuel Slosh, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Assadian, Nima (Supervisor)
Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to model and control a 6DOF satellite dynamics with a rigid body in the Earth’s orbit including the fuel slosh. The satellite manages and controls its attitude and position by twelve ON-OFF thrusters installed alongside the principal body axes. Moreover, due to using the liquid fuel to feed these thrusters, fuel slosh may have a strong dynamical effect on the satellite translational and rotational dynamics and control. The thrusters’ activation may result in fuel slosh and the impact of their frequent switching ON-OFF on fuel is considered in this study. The thrusters force magnitude, switching intervals, and their frequencies can affect the magnitude of...
