21 The Rocket Equation for Multiple Stages Assume two stages V 1 = V e1 ln V 2 = V e2 ln Assume V e1 =V e2 =V e ( mfinal1 m initial1 ( mfinal2 m initial2 ) = V e1 ln(r 1 ) ) = V e2 ln(r 2 ) V 1 + V 2 = V e ln(r 1 ) V e ln(r 2 )= V e ln(r 1 r 2 ) 21
22 Continued Look at Multistaging There s a historical tendency to define r 0 =r 1 r 2 But it s important to remember that it s really V 1 + V 2 = V e ln (r 1 r 2 ) = V e ln (r 0 ) V 1 + V 2 = V e ln (r 1 r 2 ) = V e ln m final1 m initial1 m final2 m initial2 And that r 0 has no physical significance, since m final1 = m initial2 r 0 = m final2 m initial1 22
23 Multistage Inert Mass Fraction Total inert mass fraction δ 0 = m in,1 + m in,2 + m in,3 m 0 Convert to dimensionless parameters δ 0 = m in,1 m 0 General form of the equation + m in,2 m 0,2 m 0,2 m 0 = m in,1 m 0 + m in,3 m 0,3 m 0,2 m 0,3 m 0,2 δ 0 = δ 1 + δ 2 λ 1 + δ 3 λ 2 λ 1 δ 0 = n stages 23 j=1 [δ j j 1 l=1 λ l ] + m in,2 m 0 m 0 + m in,3 m 0

30 Lagrange Multipliers Given an objective function y = f(x) subject to constraint function z = g(x) Create a new objective function z = f(x) + [g(x) z] Solve simultaneous equations y x = 0 y = 0 30
31 Optimum ΔV Distribution Between Stages Maximize payload fraction (2 stage case) subject to constraint function Create a new objective function λ o = λ 0 = λ 1 λ 2 =(r 1 δ 1 )(r 2 δ 2 ) V total = V 1 + V 2 ( e V 1 V e,1 δ 1 )( e V 2 V e,2 δ 2 ) + K [ V 1 + V 2 V total ] Very messy for partial derivatives 31
32 Optimum ΔV Distribution (continued) Use substitute objective function max (λ o ) max [ln (λ o )] Create a new constrained objective function ln (λ o )=ln (r 1 δ 1 )+ln (r 2 δ 2 )+K [ V 1 + V 2 V total ] Take partials and set equal to zero [ln (λ o )] r 1 =0 [ln (λ o )] r 2 =0 [ln (λ o )] K =0 32
33 Optimum ΔV Special Cases Generic partial of objective function Special case: δ 1 =δ 2 V e,1 =V e,2 [ln (λ o )] = 1 + K V e,i =0 r i r i δ i r i r 1 = r 2 = V 1 = V 2 = V total 2 Same principle holds for n stages r 1 = r 2 = = r n = V 1 = V 2 = = V n = V total n 33
34 Sensitivity to Inert Mass ΔV for multistaged rocket where V tot = n stages k=1 V k = n V e,k ln k=1 ( mo,k m f,k ) m o,k = m pl + m pr,k + m in,k + nx j=k+1 (m pr,j + m in,j ) m f,k = m pl + m in,k + nx j=k+1 (m pr,j + m in,j ) 34
35 Finding Payload Sensitivity to Inert Mass Given the equation linking mass to ΔV, take and solve to find ( V tot ) dm pl + ( V tot) dm in,j =0 m in,j m pl dm pl dm Vtot )=0 = P k j=1 V e,j P Ǹ =1 V e,` 1 1 m o,j m f,j 1 1 m o,` m f,` This equation shows the trade-off ratio - Δpayload resulting from a change in inert mass for stage k (for a vehicle with N total stages) 35
36 Trade-off Ratio Example: Gemini-Titan II Stage 1 Stage 2 Initial Mass (kg) 150,500 32,630 Final Mass (kg) 39, Ve (m/sec) dm
37 Payload Sensitivity to Propellant Mass In a similar manner, solve to find P k dm pl j=1 V e,j = dm P pr,k Vtot )=0 =1 V e,` 1 m o,j 1 m o,` 1 m f,` This equation gives the change in payload mass as a function of additional propellant mass (all other parameters held constant) 37
38 Trade-off Ratio Example: Gemini-Titan II Stage 1 Stage 2 Initial Mass (kg) 150,500 32,630 Final Mass (kg) 39, Ve (m/sec) dm dm
39 Payload Sensitivity to Exhaust Velocity Use the same technique to find the change in payload resulting from additional exhaust velocity for stage k dm pl dv Vtot )=0 = P k j=1 ln mo,j m f,j P Ǹ =1 V e,` 1 m o,` 1 m f,` This trade-off ratio (unlike the ones for inert and propellant masses) has units - kg/(m/sec) 39
40 Trade-off Ratio Example: Gemini-Titan II Stage 1 Stage 2 Initial Mass (kg) 150,500 32,630 Final Mass (kg) 39, Ve (m/sec) dm dm dm (kg/m/sec)
41 Parallel Staging Multiple dissimilar engines burning simultaneously Frequently a result of upgrades to operational systems General case requires brute force numerical performance analysis 41
42 Parallel-Staging Rocket Equation Momentum at time t: M = mv Momentum at time t+δt: (subscript b =boosters; c =core vehicle) M = (m m b m c )(v + v) + m b (v V e,b ) + m c (v V e,c ) Assume thrust (and mass flow rates) constant 42
43 Parallel-Staging Rocket Equation Rocket equation during booster burn V = V e ln χ mfinal m initial = V min,b +m e ln in,c + m pr,c +m 0,2 m in,b +m pr,b +m in,c +m pr,c +m 0,2 where = fraction of core propellant remaining after booster burnout, and where V e = V e,bṁ b +V e,c ṁ c ṁ b +ṁ c = V e,bm pr,b +V e,c (1 χ)m pr,c m pr,b +(1 χ)m pr,c 43
44 Analyzing Parallel-Staging Performance Parallel stages break down into pseudo-serial stages: Stage 0 (boosters and core) V 0 = V e ln Stage 1 (core alone) V 1 = V e,c ln Subsequent stages are as before ( ) min,b +m in,c +χm pr,c +m 0,2 m in,b +m pr,b +m in,c +m pr,c +m 0,2 m in,c +m 0,2 m in,c + m pr,c +m 0,2 44
45 Parallel Staging Example: Space Shuttle 2 x solid rocket boosters (data below for single SRB) Gross mass 589,670 kg Empty mass 86,183 kg Ve 2636 m/sec Burn time 124 sec External tank (space shuttle main engines) Gross mass 750,975 kg Empty mass 29,930 kg Ve 4459 m/sec Burn time 480 sec Payload (orbiter + P/L) 125,000 kg 45
46 Shuttle Parallel Staging Example V e = V e,b = 2636 m sec χ = V e,c =4459 m sec = (1, 007, 000) (721, 000)(1.7417) 1, 007, , 000(1.7417) =2921 m sec V 0 = 2921 ln 862, 000 3, 062, 000 =3702m sec 154, 900 V 1 = 4459 ln 689, 700 =6659m sec V tot =10, 360 m sec 46
47 Modular Staging Use identical modules to form multiple stages Have to cluster modules on lower stages to make up for nonideal ΔV distributions Advantageous from production and development cost standpoints 47
48 Module Analysis All modules have the same inert mass and propellant mass Because δ varies with payload mass, not all modules have the same δ Use module-oriented parameters ε Conversions m in m in + m pr ε = δ 1 λ σ m in m pr σ = δ 1 δ λ 48
49 Rocket Equation for Modular Boosters Assuming n modules in stage 1, If all 3 stages use same modules, n j for stage j, r 1 = where r 1 = n 1ε + n 2 + n 3 + ρ pl n 1 + n 2 + n 3 + ρ pl ρ pl m pl ; m mod = m in + m pr m mod n(m in )+m o2 n(m in + m pr )+m o2 = 49 nε + mo2 m mod n + m o2 m mod

51 Conestoga 1620 Performance 4th stage Δ V V 4 = V e4 ln m f4 = 2842 ln m o4 Treat like three-stage modular vehicle; M pl =3100 kg = m in m mod = = pl = = 3104 m sec m pl = 3100 m mod = n 1 = 4; n 2 = 2; n 3 =1 51
52 Constellation 1620 Performance (cont.) r 1 = n 1 + n 2 + n 3 + pl = n 1 + n 2 + n 3 + pl r 2 = n 2 + n 3 + pl = n 2 + n 3 + pl r 3 = n 3 + pl = n 3 + pl V 1 = 1814 m sec ; V 2 = 2116 m sec V 3 = 3223 m sec ; V 4 = 3104 m V total = 10, 257 m sec sec = = =0.3103
53 Discussion about Modular Vehicles Modularity has several advantages Saves money (smaller modules cost less to develop) Saves money (larger production run = lower cost/ module) Allows resizing launch vehicles to match payloads Trick is to optimize number of stages, number of modules/stage to minimize total number of modules Generally close to optimum by doubling number of modules at each lower stage Have to worry about packing factors, complexity 53

56 Modular Sequencing - SRB Example Assume no payload All seven firing at once - ΔV tot =5138 m/sec sequence - ΔV tot =9087 m/sec sequence - ΔV tot =9175 m/sec sequence - ΔV tot =9250 m/sec sequence - ΔV tot =9408 m/sec sequence - ΔV tot =9418 m/sec Sequence limited by need to balance thrust laterally 56
