Fregat Master Thread

[Danderman]

Good summing up… but can you choose a different name for those tank extensions!

Also telemetry system consists of both БР-91ЦК-М6 and БР-9ЦК-1

Not sure if БР-91ЦК-М6 replaced БР-91ЦК-М4

Lastly, I have never reviewed earlier Fregat payloads to see if any them used the "M" variant. I suspect that the METOP may have used the "M", but I haven't checked.

The Fregat for METOP-A di dnot have Pimple tanks, therfore it was a standard Fregat:

Certainly, all of the documentation implies a standard Fregat.

At least the four IOV satellites. For the operational satellites, AFAIK, it is still Fregat-MT

[Nicolas PILLET]

I don't understand which Fregat-SB this video is showing.
At first, I thought it was the MDU for Fobos-Grunt, but it wasn't yet in Baikonur on 7th september 2011 (date of video publication on TVRoscosmos).

Caught 1031 at 1:04 so not SB, and has Soyuz interface. For next Globalstar?

[Danderman]

According to this article:

http://www.arianespace.com/news-mission-update/2012/897.asp

MetOp-B is using a Fregat M stage.

I've just found this interesting text about the S5.92, but I don't really understand what it is saying. Someone could help ?

[YzeStudent]

After a little correction of the original Russian text:

“The engine chambers are not installed in a gimbal, as usual, but in the hinge, allowing its plane-parallel motion. By this way, a displacement of the thrust vector with regard to the center of mass of the upper stage, which is located very close to the engine head, is ensured. (In this specific case, the cardan joint did not provide the necessary arm to create a moment of thrust)”

[Danderman]

This is getting a little confusing.

Fregat-M is supposed to be a standard Fregat with avionics upgrades plus the small "pimple" tanks. However, we are now seeing standard Fregats withe the avionics upgrades, so is the "M" variant simply a standard Fregat with the pimple tanks? How much longer are we going to see the standard Fregat, or will these be produced in parallel with the "M" and "MT" variants?

[Nicolas PILLET]

Someone knows when this system made its maiden flight on Fregat ?

I don't agree. Fregat-M is a standard Fregat with an rearranged PO1 compartment (PO1 is the location of the telemétry system).

http://novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/forum/forum12/topic13093/

РБ Фрегат (использовался с 1-х ЛКИ, прошёл 3 этапа модернизации включая один из самых существенных - замена БВК Бисер-3 на Бисер-6). Последний раз использовался при запуске Метеор-М №1 (не считая РБ №1019 для запуска Канопуса-Б который долго пролежал в ожидании пуска). Два таких РБ были поставлены в ГКЦ в начале 2010 года. РБ №1021 был использован при запуске Pleiades-1A. РБ №1020 планируется к использованию при запуске Pleiades-1B. Французские партнёры эту конфигурацию называют «стандартной».

РБ Фрегат-М (новая компоновка ПО1, увеличенная несущая способность). Первый раз был использован при запуске Глобалстар-2 №1 (19.10.2010). Последний раз использовался для запуска Метопа-Б и будет ещё использоваться для внутренних пусков.

РБ Фрегат-МТ (увеличенная заправка за счёт установки дополнительных ёмкостей, доработанный ПО1, облегчённый ПхО). Первый раз был использован при запуске IOV M1 (21/10/2011). Предполагается, что во всех остальных пусках РН Союз-СТБ будет использоваться РБ Фрегат-МТ.

РБ Фрегат-СБ (МТ + сбрасываемый тороидальный бак для использования только с РН Зенит).  Первый раз был использован при запуске Электро-Л №1 (20/01/2011)

“The engine chambers are not installed in a gimbal, as usual, but in the hinge, allowing its plane-parallel motion.

Thank you for translation, YzeStudent !
But I don't understand this sentence. The S5.92 is able to control its pitch and its yaw. How could it be possible with only one hinge ?
And I don't understand what "plane-parallel" means...

It moves sideways? Offset from the centre?

[zaitcev]

And I don't understand what "plane-parallel" means... 

It means "located/belonging to/confined in a flat plane (of 2 dimensions)", as opposed to a gimball that makes the engine trace a sphere, typically. So, instead of rotation we have translation.

Thanks zaitcev for that explanation !
But I don't understand how the engine can translate with a hinge ??
Maybe my English is not correct. Do we agree that a "hinge" is this thing ?
