Structural and Flow Analysis of Launch Vehicle for CubeSats

Şanlı, Alper / Erkeç, Tuncay Yunus

Space has always been a matter of curiosity for humanity. With the development of satellite technologies, the number of CubeSats has increased. Accessibility to space has become easier with CubeSat technology. CubeSats are provided with access to space with launch vehicles. This study examined the structural and flow analyses of the previously designed launch vehicle. The main task of the launch vehicle is to bring the CubeSat placed in the CubeSat orbital deployer into the stratosphere layer of the atmosphere. CubeSat will be used for educational purposes. Information about the launch vehicle and the CubeSat to be placed is given. Structural analysis and flow analysis were carried out, taking into account atmospheric conditions. For the structural analysis, total deformation, equivalent stress, and maximum and principal stresses analysis under the effect of maximum acceleration that the launch vehicle will encounter were examined. For flow analysis, a wind turbine model with the launch vehicle was created. Flow path, flow velocity values, and dynamic pressure analyses on the launch vehicle were examined. In this study, the structural and flow analyses of the launch vehicle, which will take the CubeSat to be used for educational purposes up to the stratosphere layer of the atmosphere, were examined, and its suitability for the task was discussed.
