Thermal Analysis Cases
Objectives & Results:
- Moon-Ranger : explore the south pole for lunar ice (50K~200K)
- The validation of the viability of the thermal control of micro-rovers at the lunar poles for future missions
- Passive : Surface finish, VDA (Vapor Deposit Aluminum) tape, interface…
- Active : heaters, on/off logic
- -10℃ to 35℃ for surface operations, -15℃ to 40℃ for transit for avionics
