The BSTCA (Battery Section Thermal Control Assembly) is a module of the Columbus MTFF (Man Tended Free Flyer). Electrical power required during eclipse periods, is made available from six nickel hydrogen batteries. A sophisticated multi-radiator configuration, with a hybrid heat pipe network, has evolved. Autonomous control of the assembly heat rejection capability has been achieved by a integrated network of LTHP's (Liquid Trap Heat Pipes) and CCHP's (Constant Conductance Heat Pipes) under the control of a conventional HCU (Heater Control Unit).The process of design selection and verification is discussed, for the BSTCA, with a detailed LTHP component presentation.
