지지부 위치와 벽면 두께변화에 따른 구형 인공위성 추진제 탱크의 강도해석
Stress Analysis of the Spherical Satellite Propellant Tank With Respect to the Change of Location of the Lug and Tank Wall Thickness
초록
The structure of satellite consists of six parts which are control system, power system, thermal control system, remote measurement command system, propellant system and thrust system. In these parts, propellant system consists of propellant tank and thrust device. What we want to perform is optimum design to minimize the weight of propellant tank. In order to design optimal propellant tank, several parameters should be adopted from the tank geometry like the relative location of the lug and variation of the wall thickness. The analysis was executed by finite element analysis for finding optimal design parameters. The structure was divided into three parts consisting of the initial thickness zone, the transitional Bone, and the weak zone, whose effects on the pressure vessel strength was investigated. Finally the optimal lug location and the three zone thickness were obtained and the weight was compared with the uniform thickness vessel.
