Space engineering - Thermal control general requirements

ECSS-E-ST-31 defines requirements for the discipline of thermal engineering.
This Standard defines the requirements for the definition, analysis, design, manufacture, verification and in-service operation of thermal control subsystems of spacecraft and other space products.
For this Standard, the complete temperature scale is divided into three ranges:
•   Cryogenic temperature range
•   Conventional temperature range
•   High temperature range.
The requirements of this Standard are applicable to the complete temperature scale. However, where applicable, requirements are stated to be applicable only for the cryogenic or high temperature range. References to these specific requirements have been summarized in Annex G and Annex H.
This standard is applicable to all flight hardware of space projects, including spacecraft and launchers.
This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristic and constrains of a space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.

Vesoljska tehnika - Nadzor toplote, splošne zahteve

Standard ECSS-E-ST-31 določa zahteve za toplotno tehniko. Ta standard določa zahteve za definicijo, analizo, zasnovo, izdelavo, preverjanje in obratovanje toplotnih nadzornih podsistemov vesoljskih plovil in drugih vesoljskih proizvodov. Za ta standard se popolna temperaturna lestvica razdeli na tri območja: • območje kriogenskih temperatur, • območje običajnih temperatur, • območje visokih temperatur. Zahteve iz tega standarda se uporabljajo za popolno temperaturno lestvico. Vendar se, kadar je to primerno, zahteve uporabljajo le za območje kriogenskih ali visokih temperatur. Sklicevanja na te specifične zahteve so povzeta v dodatkih G in H. Ta standard se uporablja za vso letalsko strojno opremo vesoljskih projektov, vključno z vesoljskimi plovili in lansirniki. Ta standard se lahko prilagodi posameznim lastnostim in omejitvam vesoljskega projekta v skladu s standardom ECSS-S-ST-00.

Overview

SIST EN 16603-31:2015 - Space engineering: Thermal control general requirements (adopted from ECSS‑E‑ST‑31) defines the engineering and programmatic requirements for spacecraft and launcher thermal control subsystems (TCS). The standard covers the full lifecycle: definition, analysis, design, manufacture, verification and in‑service operation of TCS across the full temperature scale, divided into cryogenic, conventional, and high temperature ranges. It is applicable to all flight hardware of space projects and may be tailored in conformance with ECSS‑S‑ST‑00.

Key topics and technical requirements

The standard lays out requirements and guidance for thermal engineering at system and unit levels, including:

  • Mission and phase-driven requirements
    • Consideration of ground, pre‑launch, launch/ascent, orbital/planetary, interplanetary, docking, entry/landing and post‑landing phases.
  • Performance requirements
    • Thermal functionality and range coverage for cryogenic, conventional and high temperature regimes.
  • Interface and subsystem requirements
    • Requirements toward mechanical, electrical, AOCS, TM/TC, OBDH, launcher interfaces, GSE and ECLS.
  • Design considerations
    • Budget allocation, parts/materials/processes (PMP), EEE component constraints, lifetime, predictability, testability, reliability, maintenance, safety and interchangeability.
  • Verification and test
    • Overview of verification approach for TCS, with specific emphasis on thermal verification and Thermal Balance Test (TBT).
  • Production, QA and in‑service
    • Procurement, manufacturing process controls, quality management, contamination control, integration, handling, storage and repair.
  • Deliverables and documentation
    • Hardware deliverables, required documentation and mathematical models; Document Requirements Definitions (DRD) list is provided.
  • Annexes
    • Annex G and Annex H summarize requirements specific to the cryogenic and high temperature ranges.

Practical applications and users

SIST EN 16603-31:2015 is intended for:

  • Thermal engineers and subsystem designers defining TCS architectures and thermal budgets.
  • Systems engineers integrating thermal requirements with mechanical, electrical and AOCS disciplines.
  • Spacecraft and launcher manufacturers, suppliers and integrators responsible for production and verification.
  • Test laboratories planning thermal balance and qualification testing.
  • Project managers, procurement and product assurance teams using the DRD and deliverable checklists to ensure compliance.
  • Organizations tailoring ECSS standards for specific mission constraints.
