The most frequent call
we have for dose modeling is to determine an electronic or optical device’s
need for PolyRAD shielding. To do
this we need to know the following information:
- The total dose
tolerance of the device
- The orbit the
device will be in
- The duration of
the mission
Other useful
information:
- What is the
thickness of the equivalent aluminum sphere used to represent the
spacecraft.
- The outside
dimensions and thickness of the packaging of the electronic optics,
- If the device is
in a enclosure, then it’s dimension and wall thickness.
The latter three
pieces of information are not critical, but do contribute to minimizing the
amount of PolyRAD shielding that is required, which is important if mass is
critical.
Perhaps you have
other needs of modeling, such as verification or evaluation of your
product.

requirements.
