Расчет аэродинамического момента в задачах математического моделирования вращательного движения транспортных грузовых кораблей Прогресс

Abstract

We describe the method of representation the aerodynamic torque in problems of mathematical modeling uncontrolled attitude motion of spacecraft Progress. The components of the torque are calculated in the nodes of the grid on the two-dimensional sphere. The calculations were based on the detailed geometric model of the spacecraft external surface. The found arrays of torque data were approximated by the segments of the Fourier series by spherical functions up to the order (8,8) inclusive. These approximations are used in the equations of attitude motion of the spacecraft. We describe the use of such equations in reconstruction of the motion of spacecraft Progress MS-07, MS-08 in the gravitational orientation mode by measurements of their angular rates and in the prognosis of electric charge from the solar arrays of the spacecraft in the mode of its single-axis solar orientation.
