Summary
Conclusions:
• Mechanical Systems detailed design and analysis indicates that all
requirements will be met.
• Mechanical Systems has accommodated changes since dPDR.
• Overall design is in good shape
– Grid Box Assembly design is nearly complete.
– Radiator and Heat Pipe designs are nearly complete.
– Cal-Grid interface is still in review and has consumed 100’s of
man-hours to date. This needs to be resolved immediately.
• Risk list items are understood & mitigation plans are in place.
• Radiator design has matured and fabrication will begin after I-CDR.
• Aluminum billets for Grid are on order.
• LM’s X-LAT team has come up to speed quickly and made several
design improvements.
• LM has team in place to execute to their plan.
• Closure plan for the open issues will be in place by I-CDR.
