An architecture is proposed based on the torque mode operation for the combined energy and attitude control system (CEACS). The CEACS energy storage and attitude control performances are demonstrated.
All the relevant system equations are established. The torque mode-based architecture is designed. The architecture is evaluated through numerical treatments.
The proposed CEACS architecture can simultaneously manage the energy storage and attitude control tasks.
This research work is exclusively for small satellites in the LEO missions. However, the proposed CEACS architecture is applicable for other missions.
The torque mode operation will allow an ironless motor/generator design for CEACS.
The results demonstrate the CEACS operation in the torque mode.
