Abstract
Methane-filled heat pipes have been developed and qualified for the SCIAMACHY thermal bus assembly. The heat pipes provide an efficient heat transfer in the temperature range 100-160 K. Extensive qualification testing has been performed. The thermal bus assembly is part of the Thermal Bus Unit (TBU) of the SCIAMACHY Radiant Cooler.
