Thermal Analysis and Design

FLOTHERM Model

Scope of works

Development of a thermal mathematical model for spaceborne systems and their verification 

• lumped parameter method (ESATAN, ESARAD)
• finite element method (FLOTHERM)

Support for the specification of the model and test philosophy e.g. design and construction of a thermal engineering model  (TEM)

Thermal control systems

• Design, construction and test of thermal control hardware e.g. radiators, heat pipes
• Multi layer insolation conditioning
