📖 How to use

  1. Hohmann: enter start/target circular altitudes; add a Δi to combine the plane change with the second (slowest) burn — far cheaper than a separate change.霍曼转移:输入起始/目标圆轨道高度;填 Δi 可把倾角改变合并到第二次(速度最低处)点火——远比单独改倾角省。
  2. Pure plane change: Δv = 2·v·sin(Δi/2). At LEO speeds 1° costs ≈ 130 m/s — avoid plane changes whenever the launch can do them.纯改平面:Δv = 2·v·sin(Δi/2)。LEO 速度下每 1° 约需 130 m/s——能靠发射入轨解决就不要在轨改。
  3. Phasing: to shift along-track by Δφ, lower (to advance) or raise (to fall back) the orbit for N revs, then restore. More revs = less Δv but more time.相位机动:沿迹移动 Δφ 时,先降轨(超前)或升轨(滞后)飞 N 圈再恢复。圈数越多 Δv 越省,但耗时越长。
  4. Add the drag make-up Δv from the Orbit Lifetime tool and margins (typ. 5–10%) to build the full mission Δv budget.再加上轨道寿命工具给出的阻力补偿 Δv 与余量(通常 5–10%),即得完整任务 Δv 预算。

Maneuver equations

Hohmann: transfer ellipse a_t = (r₁+r₂)/2; Δv₁ = √(μ(2/r₁−1/a_t)) − √(μ/r₁), Δv₂ = √(μ/r₂) − √(μ(2/r₂−1/a_t)); time = half the transfer period.

Combined 2nd burn: Δv₂ = √(v_ta² + v₂² − 2·v_ta·v₂·cos Δi) — doing the plane change where velocity is lowest.

Pure plane change: Δv = 2·v·sin(Δi/2)

Phasing: the phasing period is T_p = T·(1 − Δφ/(360·N)); the burn pair enters and exits an ellipse with the same radius at the burn point. The tool warns if the phasing perigee dips into the atmosphere.

机动公式

霍曼转移:转移椭圆 a_t = (r₁+r₂)/2;Δv₁ = √(μ(2/r₁−1/a_t)) − √(μ/r₁),Δv₂ = √(μ/r₂) − √(μ(2/r₂−1/a_t));转移时间为转移轨道周期之半。

合并第二次点火:Δv₂ = √(v_ta² + v₂² − 2·v_ta·v₂·cos Δi) —— 在速度最低处改平面。

纯改平面:Δv = 2·v·sin(Δi/2)

相位机动:相位轨道周期 T_p = T·(1 − Δφ/(360·N));两次点火进出一条在点火点等半径的椭圆。若相位轨道近地点过低,工具会给出告警。
