摘要
The drag coefficient of a satellite in low Earth orbit is dependent on the gas-surface interactions, attitude, satellite geometry, spacecraft relative velocity, atmospheric composition, atmospheric temperature, and spacecraft surface properties. The Direct Simulation Monte Carlo code, DS3V, is used to develop a drag coefficient model for GRACE. The code is validated with the analytical solution for the drag coefficient of a flat plate, sphere, and cylinder and drag coefficients derived for GRACE using a flat plate model. The energy-accommodation model assumes diffuse gas-surface interactions.
