Conceptual designs of an inflatable radiator system developed for supplying short duration supplementary cooling of space vehicles are described along with parametric trade studies, materials evaluation/selection studies, thermal and structural analyses, and numerous element tests. Fabrication techniques developed in constructing the engineering models and performance data from the model thermal vacuum tests are included. Application of these data to refining the designs of the flight articles and to constructing a full scale prototype radiator is discussed.
