FIELD: spacecraft.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to controlling the angular movement of the spacecraft. For unloading the system of power gyroscopes from angular momentum current loops of a phased array (PAR) are used. According to the magnetic moments of these circuits the total value of the magnetic moment of the PAR in each mode of its operation is determined. Then the unloading point is calculated, generated by the interaction of the magnetic moments by PAR with Earth's magnetic field. When the condition of discharge is met determine the appropriate mode of operation PAR with the required discharge point and conduct discharge.
EFFECT: technical result of the invention is to improve the efficiency of discharge of power gyroscopes.
