The Fast Mobility Particle Sizer (FMPS) has been used to measure the particles number concentration and size distribution (6-560nm) of vehicle exhaust plume. The results reveal that vehicle exhaust contribute dominantly to the number concentration in the atmosphere particle. The particles total concentration decreases in the dispersion process. Furthermore, the transformation processes such as nucleation ,coagulation and condensation happen with dispersion process. Because of large number of nucleation mode particles, the coagulation process is in the advantage, which make the particles diameter increase.

AbstractPrior to landing of reusable space transportation systems, the vehicle’s landing legs needs to be fully deployed to enable a safe landing and further re-use of the space vehicle. During that phase the deployment system has to overcome harsh and challenging environmental conditions. In this study, a numerical simulator is developed in order to investigate these influences on the landing leg deployment dynamics. By means of an extensive aerodynamic database and a broad approach flight domain, the influence of aerodynamics, exhaust plume, and vehicle’s attitude on the deployment dynamics is analyzed. This study shows on the example of the first stage demonstrator CALLISTO (Cooperative Action Leading to Launcher Innovation in Stage Toss back Operations), that thrust level, vehicle attitude, and the deployment system parameters affect the deployment performance.
