Abstract

Power control unit (PCU) is the controlling center of space satellite power system; it controls the energy that output from solar array and batteries and the power balance of the whole satellite. The circuit board, components and power tube in PCU is working in a long time and in high power situation, so reasonable thermal design is crucial for PCU. Thermal simulating analysis of PCU is done in this paper. The whole thermal model of PCU is established and temperature distribution is calculated by electronic equipment thermal analysis software Flotherm, according to system input conditions and related requirements.
