Research on advanced thermal control systems for future scientific satellites
Based on the experience of scientific satellite projects, we analyze the current issues and future plans, and conduct research and development of advanced thermal control systems for future scientific satellites. The results of our research have been fed back to the thermal control system on board the X-ray astronomy satellite Hitomi, and are being considered for application to the next scientific satellite project.
Thermal control for scientific satellite projects
In challenging projects that actively employ thermo-fluid devices, such as the Japan-Europe Mercury mission BepiColombo, which will be exposed to extreme environments that have never been experienced before, and the large X-ray telescope satellite Hitomi, new satellite development methods that have never been experienced before are required. In such challenging projects that actively employ thermo-fluid devices, conventional satellite development methods and their extensions cannot be applied. We are contributing to the success of the project from the viewpoint of heat by leading the new research and development with our academic knowledge of thermo-fluid mechanics, such as development of new materials that can withstand extreme environments, construction of thermal design and analysis methods, development of test facilities, and development of verification methods.
Application of thermo-fluid mechanics
We are contributing to various space science project activities based on our academic knowledge of thermo-fluid and its related fields. In the research of reusable rockets, we are contributing to the solution of problems related to thermo-fluid such as engine flow, cryogenic tanks, and external flow. In the area of satellite propulsion, we have contributed to the improvement of thruster analysis technology by studying the chemical reaction flow inside hydrazine thrusters, and in the area of rocket propulsion, we have developed a method for analyzing the internal flow of solid rockets and contributed to the investigation of the causes of malfunctions in M-V rockets and SRB-A rockets. In the rocket propulsion system, he developed an internal flow analysis method for solid rockets and contributed to investigating the cause of the failure of the M-V rocket and SRB-A. He has also contributed to rocket research by working on rocket flight safety and radio frequency interference problems with rocket exhaust plumes. I have also conducted theoretical research on shock wave interference in high-speed electromagnetic fluids and propulsion systems using electromagnetic fluids.

International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 231, Oct, 2024This paper investigated the effect of filling pressure on the operating characteristics of a gravity-assisted cryogenic loop heat pipe(CLHP) for use in gravity environments such as terrestrial and lunar environments. The CLHP wick is made of sintered stainless-steel fibers with a pore radius of 1.56 μm and designed with a heat transport distance of 2.05 m. The experiments were conducted under gravity-assisted conditions (the condenser was placed 0.1 m higher than the evaporator). Notably, the filling pressure originated from the assumed vapor-liquid distribution in the CLHP under steady-state conditions. The filling pressure was varied from 2.9 MPa to 3.4 MPa in 0.1 MPa increments for six different conditions. Specifically, (1) 2.9 MPa and (2) 3.0 MPa are conditions where the heat leakage due to the vapor phase in the evaporator core is large, while (3) 3.1 MPa and (4) 3.2 MPa are conditions where there is no vapor phase in the evaporator core and the surplus vapor phase escapes to the CC. In general, this condition is considered to be the optimum amount of working fluid for room-temperature LHPs when designing. (5) 3.3 MPa and (6) 3.4 MPa are overfilling conditions that cause the CC to be filled with liquid. The results revealed that the higher the filling pressure, the more obvious the variation in operating temperature caused by the transition of drive modes. The maximum heat transfer capability reached 25 W in cases (1)-(4). In cases (5) and (6), the heat transfer capabilities increased to 30 W, although the operating temperature was higher. Furthermore, the hysteresis effect under different filling pressure conditions was newly confirmed. The power cycling experiments demonstrated that hysteresis in the operating temperature occurred at high heat loads and showed a similar trend to the room-temperature LHP.

33rd International Symposium on Space Technology and Science, 1 n/a, Mar, 2022This study developed a novel thermal control system to cool detectors of the General AntiParticle Spectrometer (GAPS) before its flights. GAPS is a balloon-borne cosmic-ray observation experiment. In its payload, GAPS contains over 1000 silicon detectors that must be cooled below −40℃. All detectors are thermally coupled to a unique heat-pipe system (HPS) that transfers heat from the detectors to a radiator. The radiator is designed to be cooled below −50℃ during the flight by exposure to space. The pre-flight state of the detectors is checked on the ground at 1 atm and ambient room temperature, but the radiator cannot be similarly cooled. The authors have developed a ground cooling system (GCS) to chill the detectors for ground testing. The GCS consists of a cold plate, a chiller, and insulating foam. The cold plate is designed to be attached to the radiator and cooled by a coolant pumped by the chiller. The payload configuration, including the HPS, can be the same as that of the flight. The GCS design was validated by thermal tests using a scale model. The GCS design is simple and provides a practical guideline, including a simple estimation of appropriate thermal insulation thickness, which can be easily adapted to other applications.

SPACE TELESCOPES AND INSTRUMENTATION 2022: OPTICAL, INFRARED, AND MILLIMETER WAVE, 12180, 2022LiteBIRD is a JAXA-led international project that aims to test representative inflationary models by performing an all-sky cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) polarization survey for 3 years at the Sun-Earth Lagrangian point L2. We aim to launch LiteBIRD in the late 2020s. The payload module (PLM) is mainly composed of the Low-Frequency Telescope (LFT), the Mid-Frequency Telescope and High-Frequency Telescope (MHFT), and a cryo-structure. To conduct the high-precision and high-sensitivity CMB observations, it is required to cool the telescopes down to less than 5 K and the detectors down to 100 mK. The high temperature stability is also an important design factor. It is essential to design and analyze the cryogenic thermal system for PLM. In this study, the heat balance, temperature distribution, and temperature stability of the PLM for the baseline design are evaluated by developing the transient thermal model. The effect of the Joule-Thomson (JT) coolers cold tip temperature variation, the periodical changes in subK Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigerator (ADR) heat dissipation, and the satellite spin that generates the variable direction of solar flux incident are implemented in the model. The effect of contact thermal conductance in the LFT and the emissivity of the V-groove on the temperature distribution and heat balance are investigated. Based on the thermal analysis, it was confirmed that the PLM baseline design meets the requirement of the temperature and the cooling capability of the 4K-JT cooler. In addition, the temperatures of the V-groove and the LFT 5-K frame are sufficiently stable for the observation. The temperature stability of the Low Frequency Focal Plane (LF-FP) is also discussed in this paper.

SPACE TELESCOPES AND INSTRUMENTATION 2020: OPTICAL, INFRARED, AND MILLIMETER WAVE, 11443, 2021LiteBIRD, the Lite (Light) satellite for the study of B-mode polarization and Inflation from cosmic background Radiation Detection, is a space mission for primordial cosmology and fundamental physics. JAXA selected LiteBIRD in May 2019 as a strategic large-class (L-class) mission, with its expected launch in the late 2020s using JAXA's H3 rocket. LiteBIRD plans to map the cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization over the full sky with unprecedented precision. Its main scientific objective is to carry out a definitive search for the signal from cosmic inflation, either making a discovery or ruling out well-motivated inflationary models. The measurements of LiteBIRD will also provide us with an insight into the quantum nature of gravity and other new physics beyond the standard models of particle physics and cosmology. To this end, LiteBIRD will perform full-sky surveys for three years at the Sun-Earth Lagrangian point L2 for 15 frequency bands between 34 and 448 GHz with three telescopes, to achieve a total sensitivity of 2.16 mu K-arcmin with a typical angular resolution of 0.5 degrees at 100 GHz. We provide an overview of the LiteBIRD project, including scientific objectives, mission requirements, top-level system requirements, operation concept, and expected scientific outcomes.

Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 11443, 2020We present an overview of the cryogenic system of the next-generation infrared observatory mission SPICA. One of the most critical requirements for the SPICA mission is to cool the whole science equipment, including the 2.5 m telescope, to below 8 K to reduce the thermal background and enable unprecedented sensitivity in the mid- and far-infrared region. Another requirement is to cool focal plane instruments to achieve superior sensitivity. We adopt the combination of effective radiative cooling and mechanical cryocoolers to accomplish the thermal requirements for SPICA. The radiative cooling system, which consists of a series of radiative shields, is designed to accommodate the telescope in the vertical configuration. We present thermal model analysis results that comply with the requirements to cool the telescope and focal plane instruments.

Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 11443, 2020The Space Infrared Telescope for Cosmology and Astrophysics (SPICA) mission is to be launched into orbit around the second Lagrangian point (L2) in the Sun-Earth system. Taking advantage of the thermal environment in L2, a 2.5m-class large IR telescope is cooled below 8K in combination with effective radiant cooling and a mechanical cooling system. SPICA adopts a cryogen-free system to prevent the mission operation lifetime being limited by the amount of cryogen as a refrigerant. Currently, the mechanical cooler system with the feasible solution giving a proper margin is proposed. As a baseline design, 4K / 1K-class Joule-Thomson coolers are used to cool the telescope and thermal interface for Focal Plane Instruments (FPIs). Additionally, two sets of double stage stirling coolers (2STs) are used to cool the telescope shield. In this design, nominal operation of FPIs can be kept when one mechanical cooler is in failure. In this paper, current baseline configuration of the mechanical cooler system and current status of mechanical coolers developments which need to satisfy the specific requirements of SPICA cryogenic system are presented.
