Abstract:The paper deals with heat and mass transfer research issues related to the development of spacecraft active thermal control systems, more specifically development of two-phase heat transport system technology. It focuses on design and development supporting theoretical work: the thermal/ gravitational scaling of two-phase heat transport systems, including the aspects of gravity level dependent two-phase flow pattern mapping and condensation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
