ADBSat: Verification and validation of a novel panel method for quick aerodynamic analysis of satellites
Luciana Sinpetru, Nicholas H. Crisp, Peter C. E. Roberts +7
We present the validation of ADBSat, a novel implementation of the panel method including a fast pseudo-shading algorithm, that can quickly and accurately determine the forces and…
System Modelling of Very Low Earth Orbit Satellites for Earth Observation
N. H. Crisp, P. C. E. Roberts, K. L. Smith +7
The operation of satellites in very low Earth orbit (VLEO) has been linked to a variety of benefits to both the spacecraft platform and mission design. Critically, for Earth observ…
ADBSat: Methodology of a novel panel method tool for aerodynamic analysis of satellites
Luciana A. Sinpetru, Nicholas H. Crisp, David Mostaza-Prieto +2
ADBSat is a novel software that determines the aerodynamic properties of any body in free-molecular flow. Its main advantage is the fast approximation of the aerodynamics of spacec…
