Solidification Furnace Developed for Sounding Rockets: Santa Branca Mission
Brazil has a Microgravity Program mainly based mainly on sounding rockets experiments. The Santa Branca Mission, aimed to qualify the Brazilian Suborbital Microgravity Platform (MQ-MSP). The group of the Coordination of Applied Research and Technological Development (COPDT) of the Brazilian Space Research Institute (INPE) participated with an experiment in a fast solidification furnace, capable of producing temperatures up to 900 °C, which was tested with semiconductor and metal alloys. This paper describes the construction and performance of this furnace during the last suborbital flight, the Santa Branca Mission, which took place in 2022. The solidification furnace is now qualified and ready to be used by other institutions for sounding rocket flights.
期刊介绍:
Microgravity Science and Technology – An International Journal for Microgravity and Space Exploration Related Research is a is a peer-reviewed scientific journal concerned with all topics, experimental as well as theoretical, related to research carried out under conditions of altered gravity.
Microgravity Science and Technology publishes papers dealing with studies performed on and prepared for platforms that provide real microgravity conditions (such as drop towers, parabolic flights, sounding rockets, reentry capsules and orbiting platforms), and on ground-based facilities aiming to simulate microgravity conditions on earth (such as levitrons, clinostats, random positioning machines, bed rest facilities, and micro-scale or neutral buoyancy facilities) or providing artificial gravity conditions (such as centrifuges).
Data from preparatory tests, hardware and instrumentation developments, lessons learnt as well as theoretical gravity-related considerations are welcome. Included science disciplines with gravity-related topics are:
− materials science
− fluid mechanics
− process engineering
− physics
− chemistry
− heat and mass transfer
− gravitational biology
− radiation biology
− exobiology and astrobiology
− human physiology
