**Mission Brief
**The topic聽of your thesis聽revolves around the second design iteration of a聽heat exchanger for the聽tank聽pressurization system.聽This heat exchanger uses waste heat from the engine to increase the聽temperature聽of cryogenic helium before it is聽fed into the propellant tanks.聽The goal of聽this聽design iteration is to聽improve our understanding of the聽heat exchanger system聽(and its dynamics)聽and to聽reduce聽overall聽system mass and helium consumption.聽This will include testing of a sub-scale model of the pressurization system and heat exchanger, data analysis and model validation.
Your Role in Our Space Mission
-
Refine an existing system model of pressurization system and heat exchanger
-
Validate and tune model using experimental data and estimate the effect of soot deposition on heat exchanger performance
-
Using the validated system model to optimize a second iteration of the heat exchanger geometry
-
Assist in conducting experimental campaigns and data analysis
-
Analyze start-up transients of heat exchanger outflow using model and test data
-
Defining parameters for a temperature control system for the pressurization helium聽
