One of objectives of work in thermal similitude is to determine modeling laws and techniques which will find application in thermal scaling of spacecraft and in research problems; modeling laws for space vehicles are derived from differential equations used in practice for thermal analysis; necessary conditions for complete thermal similarity between model and prototype take form of 28 ratios that must remain constant; all of these ratios are not independent but contain independent sets of 6 ratios; example of thermal scaling is given in which one independent set is used.
