Abstract

In this manuscript, the temperature model of multilayer insulation (MLI) on a spacecraft solar panel in thermal radiation is considered. The thermal insulation performance of MLI and the stress of the spacecraft are also considered. The thermal equilibrium equation of the surface temperature of MLI spacecraft in the presence of current transfer, and the iterative temperature acquisition algorithm of the front and back surface of solar panel MLI are derived. The Gaussian elimination method is used to invert the high order sparse matrix composed of error coefficients, thus realizing the real-time calculation of thermal re-radiation(TRR). The thermodynamic model was applied to the motion simulation of GPS Block IIR satellites, and the theoretical model was verified based on the actual temperature measurement data of several GPS Block IIR satellites. The simulation results have certain reference value for studying the thermodynamic modeling of MLI spacecraft and TRR perturbation calculation.
