COMMUNICATION, TV BROADCASTING AND REPEATER SATELLITE

摘要

FIELD: satellite information systems; temperature control systems of communication and repeater satellites. SUBSTANCE: proposed satellite includes equipment items mounted on skins of honeycomb panels and interconnected by means of pipe lines. Honeycomb units and webs of liquid manifold are bonded to skins of honeycomb panels by means of heat-conducting adhesive. Faces of honeycomb meshes and skins of honeycomb panels have perforations. Ends of manifold and pipe lines are welded to ends of adapters provided with half-seats. Other ends of adjacent adapters are provided with beads and are pressed towards each other and are welded together in zone of joint of beads. Bushes mounted in half-seats are provided with grooves opposite welded joints which are communicated with inner cavities of adapters. Sizes and number of perforations, parameters of bushes and grooves, as well as area of poor adhesion are selected from definite ranges and relationships taking into account technological factors and intensity of drop of pressure of air under fairing of launch vehicle in injecting the satellite into orbit. EFFECT: reduced mass; enhanced reliability; increased service life (to 15 years). 3 cl, 6 dwg
