Abstract
Content
This paper discusses the thermal modeling activities as a design and development tool for the Tracker Thermal Control System, the mechanically pumped, carbon dioxide thermal management system for the AMS-2 Silicon Tracker. Main modeling topics are: radiator sizing and condenser development, set-point control and pre-heating issues with respect to the spatial and temporal temperature gradient requirements of the Tracker.
