    thermal technologies and methodologies related to small satellites and CubeSats

    Out of nearly two thousand CubeSat missions that have taken place, less than ten have been designed to cultivate and sustain living organisms in-orbit whilst working with as strict thermal requirements as the AcubeSAT, developed under ESA Education's “Fly Your Satellite! 3 Programme” by SpaceDot. SpaceDot is a non-profit, volunteer, and interdisciplinary student team working on the 3U CubeSat...

  2. 110. Recursive Methodology for a flexible and responsive thermal analysis on a multimission 12U CubeSat Platform

    thermal technologies and methodologies related to small satellites and CubeSats

    Thermal analysis for CubeSats is a challenge caused by different factors. For instance, orbit parameters are not known until the very end of the development phase. On the other hand, thermal behaviour of a multimission platform can differ significantly from one mission to another. As part of the development of the CSUM's 12U platform, improvements to the thermal analysis process were required....

    thermal technologies and methodologies related to small satellites and CubeSats

    HENON (HEliospheric pioNeer for sOlar and interplanetary threats defeNce) and LUMIO (Lunar Meteoroid Impact Observer) missions are pioneering deep-space projects employing 12U CubeSat platforms. HENON aims to advance space weather forecasting by placing a CubeSat in a distant retrograde orbit (DRO) around the Earth, providing early warning signals for solar events. LUMIO, on the other hand,...

    thermal technologies and methodologies related to small satellites and CubeSats

    ESA’s HERA mission launching in October 2024 is the follow-up to NASA’s DART mission, investigating planetary defence measures by impacting the Dimorphos asteroid, part of the Didymos binary asteroid system. HERA’s mission is to measure the momentum transfer from DART as well as catalogue in greater detail the asteroids’ properties. HERA will carry two CubeSats: Milani and Juventas. Juventas...

  5. 57. 3Cat-4 Thermal Analysis and Thermal Vacuum Test Campaign
    Jeimmy Nataly Buitrago Leiva (Polytechnic University of Catalonia)

    thermal technologies and methodologies related to small satellites and CubeSats

    The 3Cat-4 is the fourth member of the CubeSat series of UPC’s NanoSat Lab, selected in ESA Academy’s Flight Your Satellite program in 2017. This mission mission aims at demonstrating the capabilities of nanosatellites, and in particular those based in the 1-Unit CubeSat standard, for challenging Earth Observation (EO) using Global Navigation Satellite System - Reflectometry (GNSS-R) and L -...

    thermal design (for platforms, instruments etc.)

    It is generally known that thermal contact resistance between two bodies is a function of pressure, hardness, and thermal conductivity [1]. In most engineering cases there is a constant trade-off between the demands of the thermal design and other requirements. It is especially true for typical cubesat applications [2]. This means it may not always be feasible to apply high pressure or utilize...
