METEOROLOGICAL BALLUTES
Under Contracts AF19(628)-4194 and AF19(628)-5851 with the USAF Cambridge Research Laboratories, Goodyear Aerospace designed, fabricated,

Technology Development
Heating
Drives deployment Mach number
Current deployment limits from conservative CFD + thermal
model
Temperature measurements are needed to validate models
Fabric Development
Past ballutes have used lightweight high-temperature fabrics
LDSD ballute used the lightest Kevlar fabric that was available
within schedule and budget constraints
LDSD fabric had more than enough strength, but suffered from
low seam efficiencies due to the characteristics of the fabric
Ballute Accomodation
Mechanical configurations should be studied to determine how to
package a ballute and parachute into the aft of the aeroshell

Summary
Ballutes have a lengthy history of providing drag and
stability at supersonic conditions
LDSD ballute was flown twice successfully
4.4 m diameter was particularly large for the parachute
deployment
