Rarefied ionization analysis for lunar exploration type capsule
As the lunar exploration capsule reentries with the second cosmic speed
serious chemical reactions and ionization occur in the surrounding atmosphere
and the communication blackout traditionally happened in continuum flows extends widely to the rarefied regime. Based on our own developed DSMC computation platform based on weighting factor scheme for trace species
the rarefied air ionization of lunar exploration type capsule is investigated
including the first reentry
first jump-out as well as second reentry processes in rarefied flow regimes
with an open configuration and simulation flying conditions. The communication blackout starting altitudes are predicted due to the electron number density
and the results behave excellent agreement with the flight observations
with errors smaller than 2 km. The results also reveal that
different from the associative ionization for slender body such as RAM-C Ⅱ
the main ionization source of the reentry for large blunt body like the lunar exploration type capsule is the direct ionization due to the collision between N
O and neutral molecules or atoms.
