Abstract

Orbital transfer blocks has the task of transferring satellites to objective orbits from parking orbit. In this paper, Attention will be given to multidisciplinary optimal design of the propulsion system of two liquid component which is one of the most important subsystems of Orbital transfer blocks. Designing with multi objective bipropellant system, based on minimum total mass and maximum Isp, and at the end mentioned to costs and compared. For combinations of NTO as Oxidizer and fuels which are: UDMH, MMH, Hydrazine and RP-1 then for usual structures that utilized in this systems, design and optimization occurred by multi objective hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms.
