Master’s Thesis: System Analysis of a Novel Water

vor 2 Monaten


Munich, Deutschland Technische Universität München Vollzeit

**Master’s Thesis at the Chair for Space Propulsion and Mobility (Department of Aerospace and Geodesy)**

One of the most promising technologies in the ongoing search for high-performance green propellants is the Water Electrolysis Propulsion technology (WEP). The fundamental concept of such a system is to fill the spacecraft on ground with pure water instead of highly toxic propellants. Once the spacecraft is in orbit an electrolyser is used to split up the water into gaseous hydrogen and oxygen. The gases can then be used in a chemical or electrical thruster to propel the spacecraft.

In order to identify for which mission scenarios the WEP technology would be the most beneficial in comparison to conventional propulsion systems, we want to conduct a series of system analyses. In each individual system analysis, a specific mission scenario shall be investigated. This shall be done by the development of a preliminary design of a WEP propulsion system for the respective mission. Subse-quently, the capabilities and constraints of the resulting satellite shall be compared to a reference satellite that has the same mission requirements but is equipped with a conventional propulsion system. This comparison shall be used to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the WEP technology for the given scenario. This thesis shall thereby focus on a CubeSat mission scenario in Low-Earth Orbit.

**Tasks**:

- Familiarization with the WEP technology
- Requirement definition for a representative CubeSat mission
- Development of the preliminary design of a WEP propulsion system for such a satellite
- Comparison of the satellite’s capabilities and constraints with a conventional CubeSat propulsion system
- Documentation and presentation of the results
