Abstract
KAISTSAT- 4, an experimental small satellite, is being developd by Satellite Technology Research Center in KAIST as a sequel mission to KITSAT-1, 2, and 3. The flight model scheduled to be launched in 2003, the qualification model construction and testing have been completed recently. The satellite subsystems of the qualification model have been tested under a thermal vacuum environment harsher than expected in the orbit. Thermal balance test has also been done in order to evaluate and tune the thermal analysis model of the qualification model. This paper describes the thermal vacuum test procedure, the results, as well as the lessons learned during the tests, which can be useful for future thermal vacuum tests of small satellites.
