Recommended application field: The complex simulation equipment is intended for simulation of space vacuum, cold, Spece environment, fluxes of protons and electrons, electromagnetic radiation by the Sun and Earth-albedo with the purpose to study the influence of these factors on themal regime of hardware and instruments of SV, as well as to determine serviceability, reliability and lifetime of cryogenic and other materials used in aerospace.

Advantages over analogues: We are seeking collaboration for development of a cooling machine which would be installed in the cooling equipnent of Simulators. Such modification of Simulators would allow to use them without cryogenic liquid and to expand, therefore, application in the aerospace industry.

The development stage readiness: Tested experimental exploitation order

Description of the development:
()
Crygenic and aerospace equipment is exploited in complicated and unfavorable environmental conditions caused by Solar irradiation, high-power flux of copuscular orradiation from radiation belts of Earth, vacuum, zero-gravity, low temperatures, significant cyclic gradient thermal loading, notable static, dynamic and reciprocal cyclic loading, vibration of mechanical, optical, electric, thermo-physical, tribotechnical and other properties of materials used in the equipment, whereas cumulative impact of all these factors is not additive.Today, therefore, the main tasks of cryogenic and aerospace materials science are: determination of serviceabil-ity, reliability and lifetime of existing materials as well ascreation of novel materials with enhanced characteristics. Such factors as non-uniformity of in-flight heating of different portions of Space vehicle (SV), time-dependent alteration of adsorption coefficients and degree of darkness for outer surfaces of SV, with account of inner energy dissipation - require special and sometimes very intricate experimental studies. It is expedient that the experiments are run at onground elaboration of spacecraft and involve special facilities simulating Space environment conditions. In order to solve the adovementioned problems, experts of Special Research and Development Bureau (CRDB) for Low Temperature Physics and Engineering at National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (SRDB) have elaborated methods, equipment and technologies for creation of special-purpose simulators series. Specialists of the SRDB have a great experience in development of simulation equipment. Earlier they built more than 10 complete sets of Simulators for commercial purposes, as for researches in the field of materials science and SV testing in Germany, China, for National Space Agency of Ukraine, "Yuzhnoye" Design Bureau, Ukraine, etc.Personnel of the SRDS includes, particularly, a team of experts capable of solving a wide range of materials science tasks, specialists in the area of design and technology engineering, a group of young scientists and experts.
