System Studies of Advanced Single-Phase Fluid Loop with Honeycomb-Cored Cold Plate 1999-01-2091
The feasibility study of the thermal control system for medium size or large size satellites was conducted to investigate the capabilities and specifications of devices such as cold plates, a radiator, a mechanical pump, and so on. In the first step of the system development demonstration, the cold plate was selected to investigate the performance among these devices. In this paper, the system concept of the advanced single-phase fluid loop and the evaluation by numerical analysis and experiments are described.
