The patent "A Phase Change Energy Storage Composite Material" (Patent Publication No. CN 1226592A) proposes a composite phase change energy storage material with a phase transition temperature of 50-200°C and a phase transition temperature of 200-750°C. It is coated with metal and non-metal materials with coating. The phase change point temperature of the composite phase change energy storage material is relatively high, which is not suitable for the temperature control of electronic components used in satellites. In addition to the energy storage performance of the thermal control device for satellites , it is also necessary to consider its thermal conductivity and sealing performance in order to efficiently dissipate heat while ensuring the reliability and safety of space applications. The design of thermal conductivity and sealing performance is not involved in the above patents

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a thermal control device for satellites, in particular to a lightweight thermal control device for satellites and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the integration of functions of satellite electronic components, the heat consumption of a single machine is getting higher and higher. For a single machine with high heat consumption that works for a short time, if the traditional heat dissipation solution based on aluminum alloy heat expansion plate is adopted, the weight resource is very large, and high compensation power consumption is required to maintain the minimum temperature when the single machine is not working. level; traditional phase change materials have a certain energy storage effect, but the thermal conductivity of the phase change material itself is very small, which is not conducive to the conduction and dissipation of heat; the phase change energy storage device based on foamed m...
