The driving design requirements and resulting design characteristics for a two-phase ammonia system of the Space Shuttle are reviewed with particular attention given to operational and station assembly issues related to system activation and steady-state operation. Design is described at an overall system level and an orbit replaceable unit level. It is concluded that a system flow network must be designed and ammonia pressures must be controlled to acquire waste heat efficiently from all contributing heat sources at a controlled temperature.
