Path: CubeSat/Demos/Thermal
% Isothermal satellite demo The entire CubeSat is assumed to be at the same temperature. This is a very useful first approximation of the spacecraft temperatures on orbit. The oscillations in the temperatute reflect the eclipses. Model a 3U satellite with different materials comprising the faces. Each area is 1U for a total of 14 surfaces. The surfaces are either solar cell, gold foil, or radiator.
