6 ISSUE : 02 Page : 6/30 1. INTRODUCTION The ExoMars Spacecraft Composite, including the EDM will be launched in January 2016; the Rover module will be separately launched in 2018 and has been deleted from this document. Components for 2016 mission: ESA provides S/C composite made up of: Entry Descent & Landing Demonstrator Module (EDM) Orbiter Bus Main Separation Assembly (MSA) Figure 1-1 : Composite configuration The Orbiter Module (OM) is the element that carries the EDM from Earth to its entry interface point to Mars. The EDM is the element that performs the Entry Descent and Landing (EDL) onto the Martian surface. From the thermal point of view the 2016 mission presents the following main phases: 1. The flight from Earth orbit to Mars orbit, with an increase of the distance from sun and reduction of the solar constant, and small internal dissipations except during check-outs. The thermal design must cope with generally cold conditions, allowing for temporary heating during check-outs and manouvres.

7 ISSUE : 02 Page : 7/30 2. The EDM entrance and deceleration in Mars athmosphere with aerothermal heating, followed by descent in cold athmosphere, and finally soft landing of the SSP. The thermal design must protect from aerothermal fluxes and the subsequent cold transient. 3. The 8 days on Mars surface of the EDM, without any solar arrays or RHU 4. The about 2 years of Science mission of the OM at about 400 Km 5. The Data Relay phase in Low Mars Orbit of the OM The thermal design of Exomars modules and their components will be achieved by extensive use of simulations with geometrical and thermal mathematical models (GMM and TMM). They will range from small models of experiments, whose environment is the internal of a module and/or the Mars environment, to models of a complete module as the EDM whose design driver is Mars environment. In other terms several levels of models are needed, from low level component to high level module and overall spacecraft composite. The players of TMMs are: Contractors responsible for the design of parts of the EXOMARS modules, for example the scientific experiments, they will deliver their TMM to module responsibles for checks and simulations at module level. TAS-F as responsible of the thermal design of the OM, it will also integrate models of contractors and it will deliver its TMM to system responsible. TAS-I as EXOMARS system responsible. It will make TMM of EDM and MSA and will generate and maintain the Overall Exomars TMM. Several needs arise: 1. To provide proper environmental conditions to the responsibles of low level experiments and components TMM, using also the specific ESA tool (LMD tool) to derive Mars environment as a function of season, landing site, day etc. 2. To guarantee coherence of the modelling techniques and assumptions to simulate the heat transfer and Mars environment. 3. To standardize outputs of thermal parameters (temperatures and energy balances are the most important) for easy interpretation and transfer of results. 4. To ensure a smooth integration of TMM into higher level TMM. Scope of this document is: 1. to present the requirements to be followed by all TMM responsibles for the thermal modelling and simulations, in particular: Hierarchy of models and requirements for their easy integration. Techniques for modelling of specific heat transfer modes and environmental conditions. Rules for output generation and verification of results. Examples of models. 2. To provide all the data and the models required by TMM responsibles for their analysis. Note: All requirements presented in this document refer to both Detailed and Reduced models that the TMM responsible may need.. The use of the LMD tool is not trivial, and will be maintained by TAS-I. They will generate the Mars environment conditions for all other TMM responsibles.

13 ISSUE : 02 Page : 13/30 6. MODELLING RULES 6.1 GMM and TMM Submodelling Any model with the exception of the Overall EXOMARS MODEL shall be prepared for incorporation in another higher level model. To achieve this, it is necessary to start from the GMM, by specifying for each shell side the submodel it belongs. Submodelling in GMM shall be implemented by specifying in each shell the arguments model1 and model2. If the values given to the arguments are different (i.e. the two faces belong to different submodels), which of them is used in calculations shall be defined using side1 or side2 as ACTIVE or INACTIVE. 6.2 Model hierarchy Figure 6-1 : Model tree

14 ISSUE : 02 Page : 14/30 This scheme shall be followed for GMM and TMM. Each company in the models architecture scheme shall be responsible for: Delivery of inputs, including this document, to responsibles of submodels Verification of submodels including compliance to this document Collection/verification/integration of submodels. Delivery of its model to higher level 6.3 Units All drawings, specification, measurement and engineering data including GMM and TMM shall only use the International System of Units (IS units). In particular all dimension used shall be in meters [m]. Linear conductive couplings in Watts per Kelvin [W/K]. Mass in Kilogram s [kg] Celsius temperatures in [ C] Heat inputs in Watts [W] Time in seconds [s] Thermal capacity in Joules per Kelvin [J/K] Radiative couplings in [m2] 6.4 Reference frames The following right hand orthogonal reference frames shall be used for the GMMs Orbiter Module Coordinate Frame The Carrier Module shall use the following reference system: X axis: central tube axis Z axis: rotation axis of Solar Arrays Y axis: to complete the reference system (-Y is Nadir pointing) Composite Coordinate Frame The composite Reference Frame shall be the Orbiter Reference Frame EDM Coordinate Frame The Descent Module Coordinate Frame (EDM) is a right-handed, orthogonal coordinate system defined as follows: The BSH cone vertex is the centre of the EDM reference frame. The +X axis emanates from this point towards the FS. The [YZ] plane is perpendicular to the X direction. The Y direction is sun pointing in Cruise.

15 ISSUE : 02 Page : 15/ Unit Reference Frame The Unit Coordinate Frame (UN) is a right-handed, orthogonal coordinate system, fixed to the unit geometry, and defined as follows: one of the attachment holes of the unit shall be chosen as the Reference Hole which shall be identified by an engraved letter "R" on the unit the O-UN origin shall be located at the centre of the Reference Hole at the level of the mounting interface plane the X-UN axis shall be perpendicular to the mounting interface plane, pointing positively towards the unit the Y-UN- and Z-UN axes shall be oriented such that the unit will be included inside the +Y/+Z quadrant of the mounting interface plane. Moreover, if the unit has a rectangular shape, the +Y and +Z axes shall be parallel to the sides of the unit Inertial Reference Frame. Note: UN is an acronym staying for the name of the unit itself (e.g. STR = Star Tracker) 6.5 Time origin on Mars Time origin shall be local midnight. 6.6 Number of positions for solar fluxes calculation on Mars Number of positions for GMM calculation of solar fluxes in one sol must be minimum 25, first and last correspond to time origin. Note: GMM requires as input the initial and final true anomalies. Appendix A describes a method (use is not mandatory) to identify them from required Ls, and how to calculate and apply a time shift to results in order to have the time origin as required at midnight. 6.7 Power dissipations terminology The following terminology shall be used for powers: QA = on orbit: albedo; on Mars: not used QE = on orbit: planetary infrared; on Mars: solar scattered QS = on orbit: solar direct; on Mars: solar direct with attenuation QI = equipment dissipation, including RHU QR = heater dissipation (including LHP control)

16 ISSUE : 02 Page : 16/ Modelling of absorbed solar direct power on Mars Solar direct power absorbed by external surfaces shall be calculated by GMM and corrected in TMM model to account for attenuation in atmosphere, as: QSnode = QSnode_from_GMM * Solar_attenuation [W]. Solar attenuation shall be calculated from LMD tool as: Solar_attenuation = solar direct power on Mars horizontal surface from LMD tool / solar direct power on Mars horizontal surface from GMM Solar direct power for LMD tool shall be calculated as difference between total incident power and scattered incident power. For calculation of attenuation factor all nodes of Mars ground shall be used. 6.9 Modelling of absorbed scattered solar power on Mars Modelling of solar scattered power absorbed by external surfaces shall be calculated in TMM as follows, using variable QSI: QEnode =[ GR(node, space) / epsilon_node ) ] * alpha_node * Incident_scattered_flux [W] Where: GR(node, space) shall be calculated with GMM and does not include Boltzmann constant, being in [m2] Incident_scattered_flux [W/m2] from LDM tool 6.10 Dust modelling and optical properties change Dust accumulation shall be simulated, by assuming that: 1. Horizontal surface optical properties change due to deposition from original values to solar absorptance 0.9 and infrared emittance 0.8; 2. Vertical surfaces optical properties are not altered by dust Air properties on Mars MARS atmosphere is > 90% CO2, the properties of CO2 reported in Appendix B shall be used.

17 ISSUE : 02 Page : 17/ Modelling of convection with external air Convection with external air shall be modelled in TMM as: GL(node, external_air) = h * Area_node Where h [W/m2/K] is calculated from literature for Mars conditions, Appendix B contains an ESATAN subroutine for this purpose (use is not mandatory): Wind speed shall be defined as a constant, with values between 0 and 20 m/s, h shall be calculated from literature for forced convection.. Wind speed =0 shall correspond to free convection. In this case h shall be calculated from literature for free convection. A flag shall be used to set Nusselt =1 if required by user Modelling of conduction and convection with internal air Conduction with air contained in enclosures, where air exchange with external environment is negligible, shall be modelled by introducing in each enclosure an air node, coupled by GL with all the surfaces in contact with air, as follows: GL (node, internal_air) = h * Area Where h [W/m2/K] is calculated from literature for Mars conditions. Appendix B contains an ESATAN subroutine for this purpose (use is not mandatory): Note1 Equipments and experiments normally are shaped as boxes of various shapes with internal cavities. The internal air shall be simulated in the analysis made by experiment / equipment responsible. Note2: In small enclosures (typical distance between two walls maximum 30 mm) it is possible to assume only conduction (assumption to be approved by system), i.e. Nusselt = 1 and GL(node, internal_air) = Kco2 * Area_node / ( L / 2) Where: Kco2 is the conductivity [W/m/K] of Co2 versus temperature as per Appendix B L [m] is a characteristic distance between the surfaces (see example below) Area [m2] is the area of the node surface in contact with air Example: GL1 is from unit to air (one GL per unit, with unit total area, distance L is the average distance box - walls)

18 ISSUE : 02 Page : 18/30 GL2 is from air to enclosure walls (as many GL as the number of wall nodes, with walls area, distance L is half the local distance box individual wall) Units, GL1 GL2 Figure 6-2 : Scheme of conductors for air inside cavities 6.14 Sky radiative temperature Sky or space shall be modelled as a boundary node with the temperature calculated with LMD tool Ground model Ground shall be modelled as follows: The ground is affected by the presence of EDM; therefore it is modelled with several layers of nodes, each of increasing thickness from surface to depth of TBD [m]. The deepest nodes are maintained as boundaries with temperature from LMD tool. All other nodes are diffusive; they have only initial temperatures from LMD tool for that landing site. Two groups of nodes shall be used: 1. A fine mesh under / near the EDM, they are called landing site 2. A coarse mesh farther from the EDM, they are called landing area

19 ISSUE : 02 Page : 19/30 Horizon is also simulated, for an elevation maximum 10 deg versus horizontal Slope of Mars ground landing site shall be accounted for: maximum slope is 25 deg (TBC), Worst cold cases shall assume slope that minimizes solar input, worst hot cases with slope that maximizes solar input. Horizon shall be modelled in hot cases only. The model of the ground shall be provided by TAS-I. It is described in Appendix C Simulation type 1. All simulations o Mars shall be transients for multiples of the day period (average value in Martian year [s]). 2. Number of days shall be identified to guarantee stabilization of daily energy balance within 5% Energy balance output Energy balance shall be calculated for a day period, accounting for each heat path and energy source, and presented as an Excel table of energy input/outputs versus time. See Appendix D as example Temperature output Temperature output shall be provided as an Excel table of temperature versus time See Appendix D as example Models description Models shall be described in a dedicated document XXX thermal and geometrical model description, where XXX is the name of module, experiment etc. Content of the document shall be as per NR[037].
