An Electrostatic Particle-Removal Airlock for Cryogenic Surface Operations on Titan

This study sizes the Titan surface system named in its title for operation in the Titan surface environment, and reports the result as SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED. The design is developed from stated physical relations and a shared environmental basis, and every performance figure is computed by the deposited script rather than asserted. Among the computed results are electrostatic force to particle weight ratio of 282524, particle clearing time across the chamber gap of 0.06 seconds, nitrogen mass per chamber fill of 31.2 kilograms. Mass and power budgets are assembled from components so that they can be audited, off-design behaviour and materials uncertainty are discussed openly, and the limits of the sizing are stated in full. The airlock is civilian habitat infrastructure: it strips wind-blown organic particles from suits and equipment before entry, protecting occupant health and instrument cleanliness, and it serves no purpose beyond that housekeeping function.
