Temperature

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance or system. In the context of space and astronautical engineering, temperature plays a critical role in the design and operation of spacecraft and space systems. Extreme temperatures can cause materials to expand or contract, which can lead to mechanical failure or malfunction. Temperature control is therefore essential to ensure the proper functioning of spacecraft and space systems. This is achieved through the use of insulation, heating and cooling systems, and thermal management techniques such as radiative cooling and heat pipes. In addition, temperature measurements are used to monitor the health and performance of spacecraft and space systems, and to inform decisions about mission planning and operations.

Turbulence: Turbulence is the irregular and chaotic motion of fluid particles in a flow. In the context of space and astronautical engineering, turbulence can occur in the Earth's atmosphere, as well as in the fluid flows around spacecraft and rockets ... Read More >>
