A bipropellant thruster (Biprop), is a thruster that uses a liquid fuel and oxidizer to generate thrust. This specific thruster uses Hydrazine and Nitrogen Tetroxide to cause a hypergolic reaction.
During my time, I have created electronics boards for several purposes. These range from simple circuits to deploy an antenna, to an interface board that is able to control multiple pieces of hardware simultaneously.
I have put together several control algorithm simulations for a satellite in orbit. These simulink simulations are PID, deadband (bang bang), and LQR controllers.
I have lead and developed multiple systems that are either currently in orbit or are about to be launched. The first system I worked on was the communication's subsystem for EagleSat-1.
I have experience in creating software to control remote systems. The most complex was to control a remote unit through a graphical user interface and to report the unit's positional information in real time.
Solid propulsion (motors) is a form of propulsion where the fuel and oxidizer are pre mixed in a binder. Then, when an ignition source is applied it causes the mixture to combust in a highly energetic fashion.
A warm gas thruster heats up a gas to generate more thrust and ISP then compared to a simple cold gas thruster. This thruster uses a standard refrigerant and a secondary heating chamber to generate its thrust.
