INTRODUCTION
First artificial satellite Sputnik was launched by
Russians in 4 October 1957.
Hermetic satellite, air inside and had no clue about
space environment.

ENERGY BALANCE
Aim;
QSun + QAlb + QEarth + Qinternal QSpace = 0
where
QSpace is radiation of spacecraft exterior surfaces
to deep space with 4th power of each external
surfaces.
Deep space temperature is about 4 K (~269C)
and behaves as heat sink and black body
(perfect absorption/emission)
Finally;
The temperatures of any spacecraft equipment
shall stay within allowable limits after heat in

Black body is the ideal body that emits and absorbs all the energy in
all wavelengths and defined by Boltzmann rule:
E = T4
: Stefan-Boltzmann constant( = 5.6696*10-8 W/(m2*K4) ),
T : Surface temperature (K).
In reality, there is no ideal surface (black body)

NO: Non-Operating

Critical Equipment
1. The batteries must operate at preferably between 15C and 25C to
increase lifetime.
2. Optical imager optics must operate in very narrow temperature
bandwidth (5C or less) for less thermal distortion.

TRADE OFF
Rule of Thumb 1
Keep everything simple: the more you increase the
complexity, the harder you analyze and solve
problems
Set up your model with isothermal nodes for each
equipment instead of Finite Element modeling with
many meshes
Use worst hot and worst cold cases to stay within
temperature limits
Always prefer commercial off the shelf coatings and
materials to keep the energy balance at moderate
temperatures.

Rule of Thumb 2
Radiation from exterior surfaces is the key for thermal
design.
Choose appropriate coatings/tapes to keep satellite
in moderate temperatures
