Outgassing monitor on VZLUSAT-1: Preliminary results
Original language description
The first current results of an outgassing monitor on board of the first Czech CubeSat launched into Earth's orbit are presented in this article. VZLUSAT-1 was launched in June 2017 as a technological satellite and is still operating in LEO orbit. A newly developed carbon fibre reinforced plastic, which can be used as a radiation shield, is one of the tested items on board. The amount of outgassing of is one of the critical properties for space applications. Water vapour is the largest part of matter outgassed from mounted composites and other components. Thus a novel monitoring device based on several types of humidity sensors was proposed to be used on board of the VZLUSAT--1 nanosatellite as one of the payloads. This paper presents the responses of these sensors and discussed their applicability in space environment.
