NC-DSMC法を用いたJEM搭載MPAC＆SEEDに衝突する中性ガス粒子数のシミュレーション

摘要

MPAC&SEED (Micro-particles Capturer and Space Environment Exposure Device) will be attached on Exposed Facility(EF) of Japan's KIBO laboratory. Atomic Oxygen (AO) is one of the reasons for degradation of space components. It isnecessary to simulate the behavior of AO to understand its effects. In this paper, we describe the simulation result of theneutral gas particles which collide with JEM/MPAC&SEED by NC-DSMC method.
