Abstract
In this article the simulation of explosion and diffusion of debris consequent on explosion, in the space are studied. This method is simulated by the introduced code and the results are closely checked in accordance with different operational situations for the huge amounts of particles in different kinds of strategic orbits. Finally, the density distribution of debris that located in the same orbit is studied. The simulation examines the status of diffusion, trace settlement and also their location in orbits around the earth, during times that is wanted by user. Whatever satellite designing is immaculate, the satellite subsystems (such as batteries, propeller parts and etc) explosion and failing is possible, also smashing with the space masses is foreseeable. Regarding to the space orbits high expense and dedicating these orbits to each country; it is important to clean them from debris and necessary to understand this problem.
