  5. [Tim Rebold] [STRC] • Future Work • Need operating temperature ranges on various spacecraft components • Output heat generated from electronics and heat dissipating devices • Spacecraft dimensions • Determine mass and size of thermal systems • Estimate cost

  6. Thermal Louvers [Tim Rebold] [STRC] Vary radiation transfer of underlying surface (spaceflight hardware) Operates in -40 degrees C to +100 degrees C environment Weight is approximately 0.89 lbm/ft^2 of louver area

  7. Thermal Louvers [Tim Rebold] [STRC] Factory selectable from 0 to 40 degrees C with a +/-2 degrees accuracy Factory selectable at either 10 or 18 degrees above the open temperature  The louver assembly is fully qualified for spaceflight and has flown on the NASA/GSFC XTE and JPL STARDUST.
