  • sigdistautocheck_071807104428.pdf

    This paper deals with several selected aspects of the signal distribution in automatic checkout systems. These are: 1) The use of relay matrices as control elements; 2) The inclusion of self-checking capabilities; 3) Problems of systems integration. These aspects are not unique to automatic checkout systems. However, due to the nature of automatic checkout systems as presently being designed around digital circuitry, they find either fuller or different applications than in other types of systems. Also, while they are on the surface somewhat disconnected in nature, they tend to interrelate during the implementation of an automatic checkout system.

    Because of the increased reliability required of rocket systems in their more recently assigned missions, previously acceptable design features must be reappraised ad refined. In the region of rocket engine system stability, the probles is centered in two areas, the combustor and the propellant feed system The principal interest of this paper lies in the coupling that occurs between the feed system and combustion dynamics, often termed a "buzzing" instability then the dymics are characterized by periodic pressure oscillations in the range of 200 to 1000 cps appearing in the combustion chamber and' the feed system.

  • Deciprocforminicost_082007100247.pdf

    Paper from the 1965 Cryogenic Engineering Conference at Rice University, Houston, Texas, paper K-4. The abstract states, "This paper covers the cryogenic propellant and gaseous application to the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center Saturn Programs. Emphasis is placed on the overall application and the resultant logistic considerations. The planning of facilities, storage, and transportation required to ensure an adequate supply of cryogenic fluids when needed is traced from the engine and stage requirements. The entire cycle of technical requirements, estimating the quantities required from production and management of the program is developed, spacecraft application and other trends that affect cryogenic production are reviewed."
  • satvvehelec_070507122236.pdf

    This presentation is a review of the electrical and electronics systems of the Saturn V launch vehicle. Since airborne and ground electronics cannot be separated as a system, this presentation will touch upon both the airborne and ground checkout equipment. Certain airborne electronic items are singled out in order to elaborate upon the application of computers for checkout and launch. This review covered in a broad sense such airborne electronics as the control computer, the measuring telemetry and RF systems, the switch selector, the digital command receiver and the remote automatic calibration system. The ground support equipment electronics covered include such equipment as the data link, computer system and display systems. The importance of software in the Saturn V program is stressed by the application of a standard program language through the use of acceptance test or launch language (ATOLL).

    The purpose of the'saturn V Specification Index is to provide the official detailed record of all specifications and specification changes required for configuration management of the Saturn V Program and to report specification submittal and approval status.
  • SatuVspeccros.pdf

    The purpose of the Saturn V Specification Cross Reference Index is to Supplement CM-004-001-2H, the Saturn V Specification Index. It is intended to provide a convenient means of finding the specifications by specification number which is cross referenced to Specification Matrix Number and contract end item number. More complete information on specifications including preparation, approval, and contractual status as well as all effective Specification Change Notices (SCN's) can be obtained from CM-004-001-2H, the Saturn V Specification Index which contains the master listing of the same specifications arranged in logical management and functional groupings and listed in Specification Matrix number order. More complete information on hardware can be obtained from various Saturn V Configuration Accounting Indices which list items by in contract end item (CEI) number order.; This document supplements the Saturn V specification index CM -004-001-2H of the same issued date.

  • Satuservarms.pdf.pdf

    This report presents the manufacturing requirements for fabricating Saturn V service arms and contains design and operating details of the service arms and associated equipment. Part 1 defines the areas of responsibility necessary for the manufacture of Saturn V service arms and associated equipment. Capability requirements, manufacturing processes, special techniques, schedules, and other areas are detailed in Part 1. The manufacturer selected to fabricate the arms and related equipment must meet the requirements (stated in Part 1. Part 2 contains design and operation details of the service arms, Command Module Access Arm, and related equipment used on or in support of the Launcher-Umbilical Tower for the Saturn V Vehicle at Complex 39. The design and construction of all basic arms is similar. Eight service arms are being designed. The arms are being designed to support all umbilical lines necessary to service the various stages of all Saturn V Vehicles. The arms are also being designed to allow personnel access to the vehicle. Some of the arms must be retracted before vehicle lift-off and others will retract following lift-off. This requirement necessitated the design of umbilical disconnect and arm retract devices which would ensure clearance between the arms and vehicle during lift-off. The Command Module Access Arm is a separate design concept. The arm is used only for astronaut access to the Command Module. Part 2 presents the preliminary design directed toward meeting the requirements stated above.
