Dynamic Characteristics of Two-Phase Thermal Control System for Spacecraft 921328

This paper deals with review of the issues associated with modelling the dynamic processes in the spacecraft two-phase thermal control systems. The work presents the results of modelling the nonstationary conditions of the evaporative and condensation heat exchangers functioning, investigates their response to the characteristic external influences.
Disclosed are the results of the computer-aided modelling the two-phase thermal control system with a pump. The dynamic characteristics of the change in the inputs of pressures, temperatures and vapour content of a coolant in various branches of the system, as well as the lengths of the heat transfer zones in the evaporator and condenser under effect of the typical disturbing actions are obtained. The attained transients are analyzed.
