Standard Isotherm Fit Information for Dry CO2 on Sorbents for 4-Bed Molecular Sieve

Onboard the ISS, one of the systems tasked with removal of metabolic carbon dioxide (CO2) is a 4-bed molecular sieve (4BMS) system. In order to enable a 4-person mission to succeed, systems for removal of metabolic CO2 must reliably operate for several years while minimizing power, mass, and volume requirements. This minimization can be achieved through system redesign and/or changes to the separation material(s). A material screening process has identified the most reliable sorbent materials for the next 4BMS. Sorbent characterization will provide the information necessary to guide system design by providing inputs for computer simulations.

Fitting a Model to Floating Gate Prompt Charge Loss Test Data for the Samsung 8 Gb SLC NAND Flash Memory

A recent model provides risk estimates for the deprogramming, of initially programmed floating gates, via prompt charge loss produced by an ionizing radiation environment. The environment can be a mixture of electrons, protons, and heavy ions. The model requires several input parameters. Parameters intended to produce conservative risk estimates for the Samsung 8 Gb SLC NAND flash memory are given, subject to some qualifications.

Overlap Preservation Using Loosely-Coupled Boundary Conditions for Body-Fitted Structured Overset Grids

Several improvements are made to overlap preservation in the automated approach to generating overset structured meshes. A loosely-coupled boundary condition (LCBC) is introduced to maintain optimal overlap for surface meshes generated from overlapping initial curves. Extension of the LCBC scheme to three-dimensional volume meshing is also presented. Test cases include various rotary wing vehicles from NASA’s Revolutionary Vertical Lift Technology (RVLT) project, and the wing-body geometry from the NASA Juncture Flow Experiment. Results demonstrate improvements in donor stencil quality from the enhanced overlap between neighboring surface and volume meshes.
