    Description: The results of a wind tunnel test are presented; the model used for this test was 0.015-scale 140 A/B hybrid configuration of the space shuttle orbiter. The primary test objectives were to obtain incremental data on the effects of a sting mount on base pressures and force and moment data. The increments obtained included the addition of MPS nozzles as well as the deletion of the simulated sting mount. Six-component aerodynamic force and moment data were recorded over an angle of attack range from 12 to 42 degrees at 0 and 5 degrees angles of sideslip. The testing was accomplished at Mach 5.3 and Mach 10.3. The effects of various elevon, body flap, and speed brake settings were investigated, and static pressures were measured at the fuselage base for use in force-data reduction.

    Description: A review of the thermal design options for unmanned Shuttle payloads is presented. Because many future Shuttle payloads will have budgets and less time available for the definition of their thermal subsystems, simplified design procedures will be the most cost-effective. The thermal interface between an individual payload and the Orbiter is discussed. A simplified, modular thermal control system that will reduce the cost of providing thermal protection by minimizing both the initial procurement cost of any specialized hardware and the need for a detailed thermal interface analysis is described.

    Description: Experimental aerodynamic investigations were conducted on a .012 scale model of a NASA/Langley modified version of the Rockwell 089B Space Shuttle Orbiter. Using the forced oscillation test technique, dynamic stability derivatives were measured in the pitch, yaw and roll planes at a Mach number of 8 over an angle of attack range from -4 deg to 28 deg. Plotted and tabulated results are presented.

    Description: Fully coupled solutions of shock layer equations for the stagnation region are obtained, comprising a set of converged benchmark flowfield solutions for silica and carbon heat shields entering modeled atmospheres of Saturn and Uranus. Model atmospheres and entry trajectories providing significant radiative heating to the entry probes so that the heating environment and effects of mass addition on the heating environment are clearly defined are emphasized. Results referable to the carbon heat shield are questioned because of the high (sublimation) wall temperature assumed and the relatively low shock layer temperature.

    Description: The performance of hyperpure silica heat shields that backscatter incident radiation in the depths of the material, i.e., a volume reflecting heat shield, is mapped for probes entering the atmospheres of Saturn and Uranus. Three models of each atmosphere are considered; the warm, nominal, and cool models. The most recent thermophysical and optical properties of hyperpure silica are employed. Detailed incident radiative spectra and the effects of ablation on radiative and convective heating obtained from benchmark flowfield solutions are used. In-depth material response is examined and results are presented in terms of the peak rear-face temperature as a function of initial thickness for each atmosphere. Results are compared with carbon phenolic heat-shield requirements.

    Description: Results are presented for an investigation intended to examine the orbital averaged thermal response of a number of instruments, each being representative of a class of scientific instrumentation, when they are individually mounted on pallets and operated in the cargo bay of the Shuttle. The discussion covers mainly the Shuttle Orbiter thermal models, the solar viewing instrument, and the high-energy instrument. One approach to thermal insulation of smaller instruments is to provide a thermal canister insulated from the cargo bay and equipped with variable conductance heat pipes. Two approaches are proposed for larger instruments. One approach is to provide a thermal curtain across the top of the pallet which shields the pallet cavity from direct sunlight, while the second approach is to provide a fluid system to transfer heat from a specified location on an instrument to either a space viewing radiator on the pallet or instrument or the orbiter cooling system. These thermal control design concepts represent several ideas for standard reusable thermal control systems.

    Description: Molecular outgassing studies were conducted on a thermal-protection material recently developed for the Shuttle Orbiter. Molecular outgassing rates as low as 10 to the minus 11th g/sq cm/sec, condensation coefficients, and molecular desorption rates were measured in four separate experiments using cryogenically and thermoelectrically cooled quartz crystal microbalances. Although the initial outgassing rates are high, they decreased to values in the 10 to the minus 10th g/sq cm/sec range in a reasonable period of time. Outgassing rates do not increase after entry heating although the condensation coefficients at various microbalance collection-surface temperatures become somewhat larger.

    Description: A simple thermal analysis program for Space Shuttle payloads has been developed to accommodate the user who requires an easily understood but dependable analytical tool. The thermal analysis program includes several thermal subprograms traditionally employed in spacecraft thermal studies, a data management system for data generated by the subprograms, and a master program to coordinate the data files and thermal subprograms. The language and logic used to run the thermal analysis program are designed for the small user. In addition, analytical and storage techniques which conserve computer time and minimize core requirements are incorporated into the program.

    Description: The International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) is a large astronomical observatory scheduled to be placed in a three-axis stabilized synchronous orbit in the fourth quarter of 1977. The thermal control system consists of multilayer insulation, ammonia-filled grooved heat pipes, bimetallic actuated louvers, and assorted commandable heaters. The spacecraft must operate over a 135-deg solar aspect range and must be able to survive an 85-min.-zero power eclipse. It has a design lifetime of three years. To verify the thermal design, an Engineering Test Unit (ETU) was subjected to a thermal balance test in the Solar Environment Simulator (SES) at the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). Heater skins were utilized to simulate four solar aspect angles, and various internal power settings were used to simulate different operational cases. Temperatures obtained corresponded within 5C of predicted values, thus verifying the thermal analytical model. In addition, two 85-min.-eclipse periods were successfully completed verifying that the thermal design of the IUE was adequate for this mission requirement.

    Description: The thermal design analysis methodology, the thermal control philosophy, and preliminary thermal analysis results associated with specific shuttle payloads are presented. The payloads considered are the Get-Away Special canisters being developed by NASA Goddard, which may be flown on a variety of missions, and the six experiments which are mounted on the GSFC pallet to be flown on Operational Flight test No. 4 (OFT-4). The thermal control alternatives currently available to OFT-4 instruments are the use of pallet cold plates (if available) or operational constraints which allow passive thermal control without the use of excessive heater power. The characteristics of a completely passive thermal control design are evidenced by the results of the Get-Away Special canister analysis.
