A connectable/disconnectable thermal interface has been developed for the constructable radiator system under development at NASA-Johnson Space Center. A contact heat exchanger approach which involves pressurized clamping of a segmented cylindrical heat exchanger on the outside of a round heat pipe evaporator section was designed, fabricated, and tested. Dry metal-to-metal contact conductance heat transfer is utilized. Test results have indicated excellent contact conductances of up to 8500 w/m2 Cel at 2000 kPa clamping force. The feasibility and fabricability of the design have been demonstrated.
