초록

하반기에 발사 예정인 차세대소형위성2호(NEXTSat-2)에 탑재된 고상-액상 상변화물질 열제어장치(Phase Change Material Thermal Control Unit, PCMTCU)의 비행모델에 대한 위성 차원 열진공시험 결과로부터 융해-응고에 따른 작동과정을 분석하였다. 시험결과 PCM의 상변화는 발열부품의 온도 안정화에 기여함을 확인하였다. 시험에서 계측된 온도변화를 이용하여 타당한 정도의 정확도를 갖도록 PCMTCU의 열해석모델에 대한 보정을 수행하였다. 보정된 열해석모델로써 임무궤도의 정상 작동에 따른 PCMTCU의 주기적 온도변화를 예측하였으며, PCM의 액상분율로써 정량적 기여도를 평가하였다. 향후 임무궤도에서의 비행자료를 수신하여 PCMTCU의 우주 환경 검증을 완료할 예정이다.

Melting and icing process of the PCMTCU(Phase Change Material Thermal Control Unit) installed on the NEXTSat-2, which is scheduled to be launched in the second half, was investigated through the results of satellite-level TVT(Thermal Vacuum Test). As a result of the test, it was confirmed that the latent heat of PCM contributes to the temperature stabilization of the heating components. The thermal model for numerical analysis of the PCMTCU was correlated to acquire a reasonable degree of accuracy using the collected temperature measurements during TVT. The periodic temperature variation of the PCMTCU in normal on-orbit operation was predicted with the correlated thermal model, and the quantitative contribution of the PCM on the thermal energy management was evaluated with the liquid fraction. It will receive flight telemetry from the NEXTSat-2 after the launch, and complete the space verification of the PCMTCU.
