Modeling and Thermal Analysis of a Moving Spacecraft Subject to Solar Radiation Effect

The impact of solar radiation on spacecraft can increase the cooling load, degrade the material properties of the structure and possibly lead to catastrophic failure of their missions. In this paper, we develop a computational model to investigate the effect of the exposure to solar radiation on the...
