Space product assurance - Particle and UV radiation testing for space materials

Materials used in space applications need to be evaluated for their behaviour under Particle and UV Radiation. As part of this evaluation often an exposure to a simulated space environment is performed that can raise questions regarding its accuracy and representativeness. The role of this Standard is to establish a baseline for the testing specification. NOTE The environments covered are electromagnetic radiation and charged particles. This Standard defines the procedures for electromagnetic radiation and charged particles testing of spacecraft materials. These materials include for instance thermal control materials, windows, coatings, and structural materials. The procedures include simulation of the environment and the properties to be verified. This Standard excludes electronic components. This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristic and constrains of a space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.

Zagotavljanje varnih proizvodov v vesoljski tehniki - Preskušanje delcev in UV sevanja za vesoljske materiale

Oceniti je treba obnašanje materialov, ki se uporabljajo v vesolju, v okviru sevanja delcev in UV-sevanja. Kot del te ocene se pogosto izvede izpostavljenost simuliranemu vesoljskemu okolju, ki poraja vprašanja v zvezi z njegovo točnostjo in reprezentativnostjo. Vloga tega standarda je določiti osnovno vrednost za preskusno specifikacijo. OPOMBA: Obravnavana okolja so elektromagnetno sevanje in nabiti delci. Ta standard določa postopke za preskušanje elektromagnetnega sevanja in nabitih delcev materialov za vesoljska plovila. Ti materiali na primer zajemajo materiale za nadzor toplote, okna, premaze in strukturne materiale. Med postopke spadajo simulacija okolja in lastnosti, ki jih je treba preveriti. Ta standard ne zajema elektronskih komponent. Ta standard se lahko prilagodi posameznim lastnostim in omejitvam vesoljskega projekta v skladu s standardom ECSS-S-ST-00.

EN 16602-70-06:2014 (E) 12 5 Requirements 5.1 Specifying test
5.1.1 General provision a. The customer shall provide a request for radiation test in conformance with the DRD in Annex A. b. ECSS-Q-ST-20 shall be made applicable in the request for a radiation test. c. ECSS-Q-ST-10-09 shall be made applicable in the request for a radiation test. d. The test centre shall comply with the safety and security requirements in ECSS-Q-ST-20-07. NOTE
For example, for hazard and health (safety) and for access control (security). e. The supplier shall provide a radiation test specification and procedure (Work proposal) in conformance with the DRD in Annex B. 5.1.2 Methodology for laboratory degrading factors definition
5.1.2.1 Specification of the general spacecraft environment
a. The customer shall identify, the spacecraft space environment, using models as defined in ECSS-E-ST-10-04. NOTE 1 The spacecraft space environment is natural and induced environments encountered during its specific missions. NOTE 2 The natural space environment of a given item is that set of environmental conditions defined by the external physical world for the given mission, e.g. residual atmosphere, meteoroids and electromagnetic and particle radiation. NOTE 3 The induced space environment is that set of environmental conditions created or modified by the presence or operation of the item and its mission or other manmade items, e.g. SIST EN 16602-70-06:2015



EN 16602-70-06:2014 (E) 13 contamination, debris, secondary radiations and spacecraft charging. 5.1.2.2 Specification of the material environment
a. While determining the natural and induced space environment that a material encounters, the customer shall identify the location of this material on the spacecraft. b. The supplier shall identify the parameters that can influence the “seen” fluence. NOTE 1 These parameters can be shielding, view factors or mean sunlight incidence angle. NOTE 2 For example: During one year (8760 hours) the solar irradiation is:
• on a Geostationary cylindrical satellite whose axis is parallel to earth revolution axis, 1112 ESH on the N/S faces and about 2500 ESH on the periphery,
• on the LEO ISS orbit, 2500 ESH on Ram and anti Ram, 250 ESH on nadir, 2200 ESH on zenith, and 1500 ESH on the side faces. 5.1.2.3 Specification of the materials properties to be measured
a. The customer shall identify (in the request for radiation test), the materials properties to be investigated. NOTE 1 The most common examples of properties used in space technology are:
• optical (transmission, absorption of windows), • thermo-optical (spectral and solar absorptance, infrared emissivity),
• electrical properties (e.g. conductivity, charging). NOTE 2 It is often impossible to measure additional physical properties at the end of a test, if these are not included in the initial test definition. The proposed test conditions are not necessarily relevant for these additional properties. b. When thermo-optical properties are identified for measurement, ECSS-Q-ST-70-09 shall apply. 5.1.2.4 Specification of the laboratory degrading factors
a. The supplier shall identify (in the radiation test procedure proposal), the ground factors to be simulated by crossing or trading off the information given by the space environment, the specific material environment.
