Space Simulator (Thermal High Vacuum Chamber)
ACS has developed a wide range of Space Simulators (Thermal High Vacuum Chambers) thanks to its wide experience in several techniques applied in the environmental simulation and testing. Thermal vacuum chambers are able to artificially create the operating conditions (temperature and high vacuum) of whole satellites or equipment used on board of satellites.
A wide range of thermal systems is available based on different test needs, economy, and flexibility, such as:
- Liquid nitrogen flooding (boiling mode)
- Liquid nitrogen flooding (boiling mode) with heating elements (lamps or IR emitters)
- Liquid nitrogen partial flooding (boiling mode) with heating elements (lamps or IR emitters)
- Liquid nitrogen pressurised circuit with heating elements (lamps or IR emitters)
- Pressurised gaseous nitrogen circuit
- Combined liquid and gaseous nitrogen modes
- Mechanical cooling with intermediate fluids
