摘要
Optimal mass characteristics for a heat pipe radiator assembly for space application are investigated. The assembly consists of the heat pipe itself, an evaporator saddle and a radiator. The internal HP geometry and the dimensions of the saddle and radiator panel are the variables to be optimized. Operational and structural constraints are considered and the assembly is optimized for different operational modes in 0g and 1g gravity conditions. A new global search metaheuristic, called generalized extremal optimization, was used as the optimization tool. The results show that under certain combinations of input parameters the assembly with acetone HP can be more weight effective than the one with ammonia, in spite of the liquid transport factor criterion indicates an opposite trend.
