Pluggable satellite thermal control system and method

Abstract

The invention provides a pluggable satellite thermal control system. The pluggable satellite thermal control system comprises an operation robot, a heat insulation assembly and a heat dissipation assembly. The operation robot is connected with the surface of a satellite body and used for clamping and installing the heat insulation assembly and the heat dissipation assembly. The heat insulation assembly is arranged on the sunny side of the satellite body and connected with the surface of the satellite body through a standard interface; and the heat dissipation assembly is arranged on the nightside of the satellite body and is connected with the surface of the satellite body through a standard interface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of aerospace technology, in particular to a pluggable satellite thermal control system and method. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of satellite technology, a single satellite can achieve more and more functions. In order to achieve more functions, the number of subsystems or functional modules configured in the satellite increases accordingly. This also makes the heat emitted by the satellite as a whole higher and higher. In addition, during the operation of the satellite in orbit, it will also be affected by external heat such as sunlight. In practical applications, once the temperature of the satellite is too high, it is very likely to cause damage to each functional module, and then affect the normal operation of the satellite. [0003] Based on this, how to design the thermal control system of the satellite is very important. For example, patent 2019107847488 mentions a modular an...

Problems solved by technology

For example, patent 2019107847488 mentions a modular and reconfigurable satellite thermal control method based on repeatable separation of thermal interfaces, which uses different heat dissipation modules for the specific heat consumption level and load of different modules of the satellite, but its installation Complicated and difficult to achieve on-rail plugging and unplugging

Another example is patent 2020224362293, which provides a satellite thermal control energy storage module based on welding adhesive sealing technology, which solves the problem of insufficient sealing durability, and patent 2016101473622, which solves the problem of small The key stand-alone thermal control problem in the satellite, neither of these two methods adopts a modular design, it is difficult to maintain and replace, and the flexibility is poor
