Dynamic Mass of a Reaction Wheel Including Gyroscopic Effects: An Experimental Approach

Abstract: In the recent years, driven by the increasingly stringent stability requirements imposed by some satellites' payloads (e.g. the new generation of optical instruments), the issue of accurate on-board spacecraft microvibration modelling has attracted signicant interest from engineers and scientists. This paper investigates the microvibrationinduced phenomenon on a cantilever congured reaction wheel assembly including sub and higher harmonic amplications due to modal resonances and broadband noise. A mathematical… Show more

“…As one can see, both dynamic and static imbalances lead to the additional terms in the right parts of Equations ( 15) and (20), which do not depend on satellite state vector components for the first order approximation, so the total stabilization accuracy is the sum of Equations ( 17) and (21). )…”

“…Low-level mechanical disturbances also known as microvibrations have become an increasingly important aspect in the design of scientific satellites. Microvibrations usually have an amplitude in the range of μg's and typically occur up to 1 kHz [1,2]. These disturbances are especially concerning for the design of satellites used in earth observation and space astronomy as they can cause poor pointing stability and imaging, leading to adverse effects on the satellites' instrumentation [3][4][5].…”

“…In this framework, the safety factor associated to disturbances produced by RWs plays an important role; literature shows that vibrations produced by these devices are among the most significant on board the spacecraft, [23,24]. This justifies the great amount of research on RWs, in terms of mathematical models, [25,26], experimental validation and characterisation, [27,28].…”
