Besides recovering a rocket for just the flight data, one can opt to recover the entire rocket, including the tank and engine. This can be done for public relation reasons, but also with full rocket reusability in mind. This article describes three concepts using parachutes to recover a sounding rocket in its entirety. As a reference design, a Stratos III-like vehicle, developed by Delft Aerospace Rocket Engineering (DARE) is chosen. The concepts described are a separation of nose cone and tank with two separate recovery systems, separation of nose cone and tank with one single recovery system, and full rocket recovery without rocket separation. For each of the concepts, a system breakdown is given including mass, reliability and performance estimations. The article continues by explaining the various methods for parachute deployment that can be used. An overview of the advantages and disadvantage of the various systems is given here. Finally, the article provides a recommendation of when to use which deployment system, linking back to the concepts discussed before. |
