Space Orbital


The following components of ESATAN-TMS are applicable for space orbital applications:

Mission

Mission provides a uniquely flexible environment for the thermal analysis of complex orbital mission, including inter-planetary bodies with solar and planet heating.

 

Radiative

Radiative provides a powerful environment for modelling any type of application where radiation effects are considered important. It uses enhanced Monte-Carlo ray tracing algorithm with automatic accuracy in calculating view factors or full radiative exchange factors.

Thermal

Thermal  is  the  underpinning  "engine"  of  ESATAN-TMS  based  on  the  lumped  parameter  formulation.  It  provides  built-in  hierarchical  sub-modelling  facility  as  well  as  a  library  of   subroutine  to  simplify  the  analysis  of  complex  system.                

ThermNV

ThermNV enables the visualisation, inspection and processing of thermal analysis networks, either for model validation or post-processing task such as heat flow inspections and charting.                                             

ThermXL

ThermXL is an add-in for Microsoft Excel, for performing simple thermal analysis within a spreadsheet. It provides an intuitive, easy-to-use thermal modelling environment perfect for conceptual studies, "What if...?" type analysis, etc.

Workbench

Workbench is an integrated environment with full pre- and post-processing capabilities, providing geometry modelling, visualisation, reporting and analysis case control. It introduces multiple ways of building the geometrical model.
