Operational thermal conditions of optoelectronic devices for МС-2-8 space vehicle

Abstract

Description of ТВК-2.5 simulation plant for thermal vacuum tests on space applied equipment and devices are given. Thermal vacuum test results on thermal mock-up of МС-2-8 small space vehicle (SP) with mounted on-board optoelectronic devices (OED) and with simulators of external and internal thermal radiation are adduced. Thermal vacuum tests were carried out in order to ensure OED reliability in orbit.
