Publisher's Synopsis
Techniques developed for determining the safe operating range or condition of past space programs are inadequate to support requirements of highly repetitive and routine earth orbit operations of advanced spacecraft systems. General concepts are presented for establishing maximum and minimum limits (redlines) for the consumables subsystems of the space shuttle orbiter. Implementation of a redline status subprocessor is recommended as a substitute for methods employed in past programs. The algorithms developed are amenable for use in the Mission Control Center, the launch processing system, and the space shuttle onboard computer. Zamora, M. A.
