Mission Overview 3 4 2 5 1 6
Scientific Mission Overview Characterize the performance of electrically active heat shielding Proposed method of reentry: • Electromagnetic Heat Shield Presenter: Tal Wammen
Engineering Mission Overview Develop a standardized probe and deployment system. Develop a reliable and reusable standard electronic system. Presenter: Tal Wammen
Theory and Concepts To design and build a standardized probe deployment system to test an advanced, electrically shielded reentry system. These concepts, as well as a standardized delivery mechanism, will provide a foundation to build future experiments. Presenter: Tal Wammen
Theory and Concepts • A strong magnet should repel charged particles. • Particles striking the payload impart energy on the probe causing heat. Research based from several papers regarding preventing radio black out. Presenter: Tal Wammen
Concept of Operations t ≈ 1.7 min Shedding of Skin t ≈ 4.0 min Probe Deployment t ≈ 2.8 min Apogee End of Terrier Malamute Burn t ≈ 8.2 min Chute Deploys t ≈ 15 min Splash Down t ≈ 0 min Launch Presenter: Tal Wammen
Success Criteria Reduce heat on reentry of a probe. Confirm results with control. Create a standardized probe deployment platform enabling future progression in the field. Presenter: Tal Wammen

Electromagnet Modeling 3 4 2 5 1 6
Electromagnetic Equations Ampere’s Law: Simplified to: Where B is the magnetic flux vector. N is the number of turns. L is the length, and I is the current. μ is μo * μr, where μo is the permeability of free space (4πE-7 H/m), and μris the permeability of soft iron (200).
Electromagnet Matlab Code Equations implemented in matlab. Takes variety of parameters including: diameter, length, wire gauge and internal battery resistance. Another script loops through available parameters building potential electro magnets.
