Description

This paper presents the recent efforts to characterize the maximum load experienced by a Disk-Gap-Band type parachute to support Mars landing mission currently considered at JAXA. We simulated the structure-flow interaction with CFD solver coupled with a mass-spring-damper structural model. The interaction was modeled using a 3D elastic canopy model and the immersed boundary method. Flow parameters were computed for a Mach 1.6 free stream condition. The flow field solution was post processed to yield the drag coefficient. In addition, experimental campaigns were conducted at JAXA supersonic wind tunnel facilities. The time histories of the drag coefficient were recorded; the shock shapes and the canopy opening process were visualized by Schlieren diagnostics to provide data and validate the numerical models. The computed averaged drag coefficient was found to be within 5% with the measurement. The breathing frequency computed from Fast Fourier Transform analysis was found to be a similar tendency with the experimental data.
