摘要: Disclosed is an artificial satellite including one face from the North face and the South face supporting at least one main radiator having an outer face turned towards space and an inner face opposite the outer face. The satellite includes a bearing structure carrying the North face, the South face, the East face and the West face. At least one part of the at least one main radiator protrudes from at least one face from the East face and the West face. The inner face of the at least one protruding part is covered with a high infrared emissivity material. The value of the dimension of the at least one protruding part is between 19% and 50% of the value of the distance between the East and West faces.

摘要: Disclosed is a heat exchange device for effecting a heat exchange between a heat transfer fluid of a first network of capillary heat pipes and a heat transfer fluid of a second network of capillary heat pipes. The heat exchange device includes a solid block provided with a first channel and a second channel which are independent of one another, the first channel having at least one opening intended to be connected to a capillary heat pipe of the first network, the second channel having at least one opening intended to be connected to a capillary heat pipe of the second network, the first channel having a portion which lies near a portion of the second channel such that the heat transfer fluid of the first network is able to exchange heat with the heat transfer fluid of the second network via the heat exchanging portions.

摘要: A method for assembling devices on a satellite structure is disclosed including attaching the devices to a first face of a plate drilled with a through-hole provided with a fluid connector, on a second face of the plate, depositing a continuous peripheral bead of polymerisable adhesive composition and depositing a plurality of discontinuous and disjointed inner beads of polymerisable adhesive composition, pressing the second face of the plate against a continuous face of the structure, performing suction so as to create a pressure differential between the plate and the structure, at least partially polymerising the polymerisable adhesive compositions so as to form adhesive joints between the plate and the structure, and interrupting the suction.

摘要: A heat transfer device is disclosed having a housing including a first main wall and a second main wall, the housing having a sealed internal cavity, a liquid contained in the internal cavity, and a mixer able to set the liquid in motion, the heat transfer device being able to be switched between a first state and a second state in which the liquid is in motion and transfers heat by convection between the first main wall and the second main wall, the thermal conductance between the first main wall and the second main wall in the first state being four times less than the thermal conductance between the first main wall and the second main wall in the second state.

摘要: Disclosed is an artificial satellite including a battery pack capable of dissipating heat, at least one radiator capable of conveying the heat dissipated by the battery pack into space, and a low-dissipation equipment item having an individual power flux density of less than 250 watts/m2. The satellite includes a thermally insulating cover delimiting, together with the radiator, an interior isothermal zone in which thermal control takes place by radiation, the battery pack and the low-dissipation equipment being arranged in thermally insulating cover. The battery pack has an operating range of between 0° C. and 50° C. and preferably of between 10° C. and 30° C.
