Tuesday August 8th, Hardware Experiments and Software Demonstration:
2:00 PM – 4:00 PM: Comprehensive Space Plasma EMC Analysis Using a Single Model
Bryon Neufeld, EMA, Denver, CO USA
Space plasmas present many risks to space vehicles, ranging from antenna pattern distortion to surface charging to box level transient coupling. The modern use of ceramics and other insulating materials in space vehicle platforms makes numerical EMC analysis an important part of the design process. The ability to perform a wide array of numerical analyses from a single geometric model provides great efficiency and flexibility for a space program. Different materials and other design variations can be incorporated into the model to obtain a comprehensive view of the impact of these modifications on overall vehicle EMC risk.
This demonstration will present a quantitative assessment of EMC risks due to space plasma environments. Emphasis will be on using a single geometric model to perform a wide array of assessments, including:
- Surface Charging
- Internal Charging (coupon)
- Discharge Coupling to Cable
- Thruster Plume-induced Antenna Pattern Distortion
- Radiated Emissions/Radiated Susceptibility
