Abstract

This report presents the development of a thermal model with MATLAB for small satellite, and more especially for the PocketQube DelfiPQ. It computes the external heat sources and provides the temperature working range for the components. However, the creation of satellite models has proven to be complicated because of some thermal properties that cannot be determined analytically; that is why an experiment have been carried out to find the contact resistance for DelfiPQ. The simulation is run for the Cubesat FUNcube-1 and is compared to on-orbit data. Results helped to choose the right coating for the design of DelfiPQ.
