4 3.3 Payload interfaces Payload compartments and adaptors The fairing is an aluminium alloy structure fabricated in two halves. It consists of a spherical nose cap and a 20 conical section at the forward end, a long cylindrical section and a short conical frustrum boat tail. The conical sections are stiffened half shell structures and the cylindrical section is an integrally stiffened isogrid structure made up of 3 panels of 1.5 m height each: length : 8.3 m, primary diameter : 3.2 m, mass : kg. FIGURE 3 - PAYLOAD ENVELOPE FOR For LEO missions, multiple satellites will have to be accommodated to exploit the full capability and utilise the available payload envelope within the fairings. Development of a smaller fourth stage with a propellant loading of 1 t (L1) and a single engine is planned to achieve optimum payload volume. Figure 4 presents the various payload configuration options on. December 2000 Page 4
5 Payload fairing description FIGURE 4 - PAYLOAD ENVELOPE CONFIGURATION OPTIONS The payload adaptor is a framed structure with a conical shape. The spacecraft separation system is incorporated on the forward end ring. Payload adaptor assembly has a height of 510 mm. Its diameters at aft and forward ends are respectively mm and mm. The structure is able to support a kg spacecraft. Suitable adaptors can be designed to meet users requirement for multiple spacecraft launch. Separation is provided by a combination of a Merman clamp, a pair of explosive bolt cutters and zip cord. Four springs mounted on the payload adaptor provide separation velocity. Payload access provisions Removable doors can be provided in the heatshield to permit limited access to the spacecraft following fairing installation. Standard cut-out access size are 540 x 540 mm. Change in size and location of the cutouts are coordinated with ISRO during finalization of the agreement. December 2000 Page 5

The variation of static pressure with time is given in Figure 6. December 2000 Page 8
9 3.5 Operation constraints Ground constraints FIGURE 6 - PRESSURE VARIATION INSIDE HEATSHIELD Due to the geographic features of the coast line and the location of SHAR range, the launch azimuth for a polar launch has to be limited to a maximum of 140. Further, the flight safety procedures like limiting the Instantaneous Impact Points (IIP) of the vehicle away from the coast and overflying the land mass are followed as per the norms. Thus, for the nominal flight trajectory, the IIP trace is at least 372 km away from any land mass. Also the flight sequence is so designed as to have the impact points of the separated stages outside the economic zones of the countries and also away from the dense shipping lanes. In case of unacceptable deviations from the nominal flight corridor, the vehicle will be destroyed by telecommand. In order to achieve the final orbital inclination of 99, the vehicle, launched South-East from SHAR, has to perform a yaw manoeuvre of about 55. The yaw manoeuvre is initiated at T s based on the flight safety constraints, among other considerations. Launch rate capability 1-2 per year Procurement lead time About 26 months Integration process The vehicle integration and launch operations are currently the direct responsibility of ISRO. Participations by industries in these areas are expected to progressively increase. While the metallic motor structures are fabricated by industries, the propellant casting and processing them into segments ready for stacking is accomplished at Solid Propellant Booster Plant (SPROB) located in Sriharikota Launch Range (SHAR). The liquid propellant tankages and light alloy interskirts supplied by Indian aerospace industries are equipped and the integrated liquid stages are delivered by Liquid Propellant Systems Centre (LPSC). The vehicle avionics systems and the equipment bay are realised at Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), which is the lead centre responsible for launch vehicle design, development and integration tasks. December 2000 Page 9
10 The composite motor cases, nozzle assemblies, ignitors, pyro systems and other auxiliary system elements are also realised at VSSC. All the interskirt subassemblies and Vehicle Equipment Bay are fully integrated and checked out at System Integration Facilities (SIF), VSSC Valiamala Complex (VMC) which is located 30 km off Thiruvananthapuram. These modules are transported by road in specific container-trailor systems to the launch complex at SHAR, where the final vehicle integration takes place. Figure 7 represents schematically the various workcentres and the vehicle hardware flow sequence. Launch operations FIGURE 7 - WORKCENTRES AND PRODUCTION FLOW is integrated on the launch pad. The sequence starts with the placement of vehicle baseshroud assembled to nozzle end segment on the launch table. The PS-1 booster segments are stacked making the interface clevis joints on pad, followed by the attachment of six strap-on solid motors. The second stage is moved to the launch pad in transtilt trailer then elevated to vertical orientation, lifted and placed above the booster stage. The third and fourth stages are brought to the pad as a prestacked module and hoisted into position to complete the vehicle assembly. Integrated vehicle checks are carried out before mating the spacecraft. The closure of fairings is followed by the final checkout and launch countdown. Current occupancy of vehicle on pad is about 50 days and typical launch count down begins at T - 45 h. December 2000 Page 10
11 4. LAUNCH INFORMATION 4.1 Launch site launches are performed from the ISRO facilities at Sriharikota (refer to ASLV data sheet). The Sriharikota High Altitude Range (SHAR) is located in South-East India along the Bay of Bengal (13.73 N/80.24 E), at about 80 km North of Madras. The location of SHAR centre imposes severe launch window and range safety constraints on launches into polar orbits. Launch azimuth is limited to 140, requiring polar-orbit missions to be launched in a southeasterly direction, followed by a 55 yaw manoeuvre. Similarly, low inclination orbits are restricted to inclinations of about 40 or higher, unless yaw manoeuvres are used. A launch corridor at an azimuth of 102 is available for GTO missions, with a resulting inclination of 18. The SHAR launch centre includes one launch complex for the, which consists of a pad, a fixed umbilical tower and a 75 m tall mobile service tower for assembly of the rocket. The mobile service tower has a clean room for payload integration onto the launch vehicle. Motor casting and vehicle pre-integration testing are performed at other facilities at the SHAR centre. The launch complex has also been modified with cryogenic fuelling and servicing capabilities to support upcoming GSLV launches. FIGURE 8 - LAUNCH FACILITIES LOCATION December 2000 Page 11
12 FIGURE 9 - LAUNCH COMPLEX Payload processing Effective integration of the spacecraft to requires timely preparation. The operations at launch pad are carried out in the 3 phases. The spacecraft campaign duration at SHAR is normally 30 days before launch. The sequence of operations on the launch pad is described in Figure 10. Working days T Spacecraft preparation Checkout validation Phase-1 (SP-1) Spacecraft preparation Phase-2 (SP-2) Filling & final S/C operations Spacecraft activities at MST Phase-3 (SP-3) S/C Assembly & C/O Heatshield assembly Phase-3 checks with S/C Launch preparation Count down FIGURE 10 - TYPICAL SPACECRAFT OPERATIONS SCHEDULE December 2000 Page 12
13 Launch vehicle processing The upper stage module stacking, satellite mating to vehicle and close of fairing are followed by about 45 h of prelaunch countdown when the propellant servicing, arming and checkout operations are carried out before lift-off. The vehicle checkout operation is remote through fibre optic link from checkout computer located in LCC, 5 km away from the pad. From T - 10 min, the Automatic Launch Sequence (ALS) takes over the final phase of checkout, culminating in the ignition command to the booster stage at T Sequence of flight events The main events in the typical flight sequence for a sun-synchronous polar mission are as follows (refer to Figure 11). FLIGHT SEQUENCE TIME AFTER (s) LIFT-OFF EVENTS 4 solids + stage 1 ignition 2 solids ignite at 2.5 km 4 solids burnout and separation at 24 km 2 airlit solids burnout and separation at 41 km Stage 2 ullage motors ignition, stage 1 separation + stage 1 retro motors ignition Stage 2 ignition at 76.7 km Fairing separation at 123 km Closed loop guidance begins Stage 2 shutdown, separation and retro motors ignition Stage 3 ignition at 279 km Stage 3 separation at 579 km Stage 4 ignition at 701 km Stage 4 shutdown at 826 km Satellite injection Nota: the flight time, given here as an example, depends on the mission. 4.3 Launch record data LAUNCH DATE NUMBER OF SATELLITES (*) Partial failure of the fourth stage ORBIT RESULT REMARK LEO Failure PEO Success PEO Success PEO Success (*) -C1 PEO Success -C2 PEO Success -C3 GTO Success -C4 LEO Success -C5 December 2003 Page 13
