Path: CubeSat/Thermal
% An isothermal CubeSat simulation using Euler integration. The entire spacecraft is assumed to be at the same temperature. The spacecraft temperature is computed over the given orbit. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: IsothermalCubeSatSim -- demo t = IsothermalCubeSatSim( d, r, q, jD, t0 ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ d (.)
