Abstract

Among these satellites, low - orbit small satellites with military characteristics require multi - target observation, and demand for high-resolution photographs and images is increasing. Fast maneuverability is the most important factor for high-resolution images and multi - target observations. However, in the case of a small satellites, it is possible to perform the attitude maneuver if it has high speed, but the residual vibration occurs when the attitude maneuver is completed and the next attitude maneuver is completed. In this study, to verify the vibration characteristics of the plate generated after attitude maneuver, an experimental fixture for simulating the attitude maneuver was fabricated and tested. In addition, Eddy Current Damper (ECD) using Eddy Current Brake system (ECB) is proposed as a passive damping method using permanent magnet to reduce vibration. A mathematical model was established to apply ECD and it was experimentally implemented according to the magnetic flux density and the air gap of the permanent magnet. One plate of four solar panels (plate) was specified, the residual vibration reduction performance after the test was verified experimentally.

인공위성 중 군사적 성격을 띠는 저궤도 소형 인공위성의 경우 다표적 관측을 필요로 하고 고해상도의 사진 및 영상의 수요가 증가하는 추세이다. 고해상도 영상과 다표적 관측을 위해 인공위성의 기동성이 가장 큰 변수로 작용한다. 소형 인공위성의 경우 고기동성을 갖게 되면 빠르게 자세기동을 할 수 있지만 자세 기동을 완료 후 다음 자세 기동을 할 때 잔류진동이 발생하게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서 자세 기동 후 발생하는 평판의 진동 특성을 검증하기 위하여 자세기동을 모사하기 위한 실험 치구를 제작하고 실험을 수행하였다. 추가로 이러한 진동을 저감시키기 위해 영구자석을 이용한 수동형 감쇠방법으로 와전류 브레이크 시스템을 응용한 와전류 감쇠기를 제시하였다. 와전류 감쇠기를 적용하기 위하여 수학적 모델을 정립하였으며 영구자석의 자속밀도와 공극거리에 따라 이를 실험적으로 구현하였으며, 4개의 태양전지판(평판) 중 1개 평판을 특정하여 와전류감쇠기를 적용유무에 따라 자세 기동 후 발생하는 잔류진동에 대한 저감 성능을 실험적으로 검증하였다.
