To solve the problem of transverse torques on micro-nano satellites during orbital maneuver
the spin-stabilized method was selected to reduce velocity pointing error. Considering the effects of mass variation and jet damping
the spinning thrusting satellite model which subjected to constant force and zero axial torque was established. After that
the analytic solutions for angular velocity
angular momentum
asymptotic limits of angular velocity and Euler angle were obtained. The example was simulated and the results show that the analytic solutions are highly accurate. Besides
the transverse angular velocity and Euler angle are changing periodically
and the amplitude of transverse angular velocity decreases as the time is increasing. What's more
the curve of angular momentum vector pointing is a circle
and the radius is nearly equal to the satellite velocity increment pointing error. Also
the dynamic unbalance characters of the micro-nano satellite under high spin rate have little influence on the spinning maneuver process. As the micro-nano satellite becomes more disklike
the velocity increment pointing error can be decreased
