Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a satellite according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a satellite is known from the document US 2008/0289801 .
  • thermal control is meant maintaining a given equipment at a temperature within a predetermined range.
  • the heat produced by one or more heat sources must be collected and transported to areas where it can escape into heat sinks (radiators).
  • Such a requirement is particularly critical for electronic equipment embedded on satellite. Indeed, said equipment is highly dissipative and must be maintained in a given temperature range despite significant variations in the thermal environment of the satellite and an inability to evacuate heat by natural or forced convection.
  • radiator panels which dissipate heat by radiation to the cold space, and walls carrying the dissipative electronic equipment, said equipment panels.
  • the heat dissipated by the equipment is collected at the equipment door panels and must be evacuated to the radiator panels.
  • thermal coupling between equipment panels and radiator panels is critical to ensure the proper evacuation of the heat dissipated by the electronic equipment.
  • This thermal coupling is also complex to achieve because of the limited space available within the satellite, related to the size of the equipment and their geometry.
  • the thermal control system must meet conflicting needs, because it must both ensure efficient collection of the heat produced by the dissipative equipment, and allow efficient thermal transport over a potentially large distance between the door panels. equipment and panels radiators.
  • Heat pipes are conventionally used to provide the thermal transport function.
  • a heat pipe uses the phase change of a fluid to ensure the collection of heat in a hot place, and its transfer as a vapor to a cold place.
  • a tubular heat pipe is conventionally composed of a closed tube in which the liquid and gaseous phases of the same fluid maintained under pressure coexist. The heat pipe makes it possible to store the heat by evaporation and to restore it by condensation of the fluid.

  • the tubular heat pipes can be extended so that they carry the heat from one panel to the other (they are bent at the intersection). The heat is effectively removed when at least one of the two panels is in the shade (or at low solar incidence).
