A detailed satellite panel thermal model composed of more than thousands nodes can not be directly integrated into a spacecraft thermal model due to its node size and the limitation of commercial satellite thermal analysis programs. For the integration of the panel into the satellite thermal model, a reduced thermal model having proper accuracy is required. A thermal model reduction method was developed and validated by using a geostationary satellite panel. The temperature differences of main components between the detailed and the reduced thermal model were less than $1^{\circ}C$ in steady state analysis. Also, the dynamic responses of the detailed and the reduced thermal model show very similar trends. Thus, the developed reduction method can be applicable to actual satellite thermal design and analysis with resonable accuracy and convenience.

우주공간에서 임무를 수행하는 인공위성의 열설계는 열모델을 활용한 열해석 결과를 바탕으로 수행되므로, 열모델의 정확성은 매우 중요하며 이것은 보정과정을 통하여 향상된다. 열모델의 보정은 인공위성이 열진공 챔버에 장착된 형상을 모사하는 모델링에서 시작하여 실제형상과 열모델간의 일치성에 대한 검증, 거시적 변수에서부터 미시적 변수에 이르기까지 열모델 변수에 대한 조정 등을 거쳐 주어진 성공 조건을 만족할 때까지 열모델을 지속적으로 수정하는 과정으로 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 열모델 보정의 성공 기준을 수립하고 인공위성 열-구조 모델 열진공 시험결과를 활용한 열모델 보정을 수행하여 보정 기준을 충족시켰다. 본 연구에서 보정이 완료된 열모델은 저궤도 인공위성 상세 열설계에 적용될 수 있었다.

Thermal model reduction algorithms and techniques are introduced to condense a huge satellite panel thermal model into the simplified model on the purpose of calculating the thermal responses of a satellite on orbit. Guyan condensation algorithm with the substitution matrix manipulation is developed and the mathematical procedure is depicted step by step. A block-form LU decomposition method is also invited to compare the developed algorithm. The constructed reduced thermal model induced from the detailed model based on a real satellite panel is satisfying the correlation criterion of ${\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for the validity accuracy. Guyan condensation algorithm is superior to the block-form LU decomposition method on computation time.

The north and south panel of a geostationary satellite are used for radiator panels to reject internal heat and utilize several heat pipe networks to control the temperatures of units and the main structures of satellite within proper ranges. The design of these panels is very important and essential at the conceptual design and preliminary satellite design stage, so several thousands of nodes or more are utilized in order to perform detailed thermal analysis of panel. Generating a large number of panel nodes takes time and is tedious work because the nodes can be easily changed and updated by locations of units and heat pipes. Also the detailed panel model can not be integrated into spacecraft thermal model due to its node size and limitation of commercial satellite thermal analysis program. Thus development of a program was required to generate a detailed panel model, to perform thermal analysis and to make a reduced panel model for the integration to the satellite thermal model. This paper describes the development and the verification of the panel thermal analysis program with its main modules and functions.

COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) is a geostationary satellite and was developed by KARI for communication, ocean and meteorological observations. COMS was tested under vacuum and very law temperature conditions in order to correlate thermal model and to verify thermal design. The test was performed by using KARI large thermal vacuum chamber. The COMS S/C thermal model was successfully correlated versus the 2 thermal balance test phases. After model correlation, temperatures deviation of all individual unit were less than $5^{\circ}C$ and global deviation and standard deviation also satisfied the requirements, less than $2^{\circ}C$ and $3^{\circ}C$. The final flight prediction was performed by using the correlated thermal model.

위성 궤도 자세는 위성 열설계에 영향을 주는 중요한 요소로서, 궤도 운용 자세에 대한 열적 조건을 정확히 파악하는 것을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 저궤도 위성의 yaw motion의 운영 자세에 따른 우주 열환경의 변화와 열설계의 열적 영향을 검토하였다. 본 위성은 고정형의 태양 전지판을 가지고 있기 때문에 태양광 구간 동안에 태양지향(sun-pointing)자세를 유지하고, 위성에 장착되는 별센서인 별추적기의 가시 방향이 심층 우주방향을 향하도록 하기 위하여 위성의 길이 방향을 축으로 일정한 각속도로 회전을 하는 yaw motion을 하도록 운용된다. 이것은 위성이 정밀한 자세 제어의 성능을 발휘할 수 있도록 별추적기가 별의 시야각을 확보하기 위한 것이다. 또한 위성 열설계 측면에서는 이러한 운용을 위한 자세 변화에 따른 열적 영향을 파악하는 것을 필요로 한다. 연구에서는 위성의 열모델에 이러한 궤도 운용 자세를 반영한 후의 궤도 열해석을 통하여 이를 알아보고자 한다.

Conductive and radiative thermal model configurations of an imager of a geostationary satellite are presented. A two-plane method is introduced for three dimensional conductive coupling which is not able to be treated by thin shell plate thermal modeling technique. Especially the two-plane method is applied to massive matters and PIP(Payload Interface Plate) in the imager model. Some massive matters in the thermal model are modified by adequate correction factors or equivalent thickness in order to obtain the numerical results of thermal modeling to be consistent with the analytic model. More detailed nodal breakdown is specially employed to the object which has the rapid temperature gradient expected by a rule of thumb. This detailed thermal model of the imager is supposed to be used for analyses and test predictions, and be correlated with the thermal vacuum test results before final in-flight predictions.
