| description | Taking the 180~300 km ultra-low orbit satellite as the research object, the aerodynamic drag characteristics of the typical shapes were studied by using the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method in the free molecular flow simulation method, which can accurately simulate the three-dimensional complex shapes. By comparing the theoretical drag coefficients of spheres and plates at different velocity rates and the aerodynamic experimental data of 70° bluff body shapes at different velocity rates with the DSMC calculation results, the adaptability of the three-dimensional DSMC method to shape and mesh is verified. The drag characteristics of several typical satellite shapes were calculated and compared, and the pressure difference drag, shear drag, total drag and dimensionless drag coefficients with altitude and shape were obtained. The optimized design of the shape of the ultra-low orbit satellite can reduce the drag by about 10%, which can effectively improve its on-orbit operation characteristics and reduce the design requirements of the own related systems of the satellite. |
