The launch of GSLV-D6 carrying
India's latest communication satellite
GSAT-6 is scheduled on Thursday,
August 27, 2015 from Satish Dhawan
Space Centre, Sriharikota.
Earlier, GSLV-F02, GSLV-D3 and
GSLV-F06 flights could not
accomplish the mission objectives.
Subsequently, failure analysis
committees were formed to
(a) carry out in-depth analysis of the
flight performance and identify
causes for the failure
(b) recommend corrective measures
and future course of action on the
GSLV Vehicle
As per the failure analysis committee
recommendations, ISRO has
implemented the modifications and
improvements in GSLV, which include
independent inspection and quality
checks for all critical components and
sub-assemblies, change of bearing
housing material, revision of
tolerances and seal clearances of
Fuel Booster Turbo Pump of
Cryogenic Engine, redesign of the
Cryogenic Stage Lower Shroud,
revision of connector mounting
scheme and wire tunnel
configuration.
