The effectiveness of the TCS design is verified by both ground thermal balanced test and related telemetry data of on-orbit performance. Firstly, according to the structural features and working modes of the satellite, isothermal design was implemented and the effectiveness was verified by thermal analysis using finite element method. Secondly, based on the results of the thermal analysis, thermal design was optimized and verified by the thermal balanced test. Finally, the thermal design was proved to be effective by temperature data acquired from telemetry data of on-orbit performance, and the thermal analysis model was improved and updated based on the results of thermal balanced test and temperature data of on-orbit performance. The on-orbit data indicates that temperature of optical camera stables at about 12 \u00b0C, temperature of battery stables at 19 \u00b0C, temperature of instruments inside and outside the satellite cabin is ranging from 10 \u00b0C to 25 \u00b0C. Temperature fluctuation range of optical camera is less than 2 \u00b0C when it is not imaging. Temperature fluctuation range of instruments not facing the sun is less than 4 \u00b0C. The data suggests that the temperature level of the satellite meets general design requirements, and the quasi-all-passive TCS design of the satellite is practicable.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s19040827","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,17]],"date-time":"2019-02-17T22:11:50Z","timestamp":1550441510000},"page":"827","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Quasi-All-Passive Thermal Control System Design and On-Orbit Validation of Luojia 1-01 Satellite"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1445-1326","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lin","family":"Yang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100039, China"},{"name":"Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd, Changchun 130102, China"}]},{"given":"Qiang","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd, Changchun 130102, China"}]},{"given":"Lin","family":"Kong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd, Changchun 130102, China"}]},{"given":"Song","family":"Gu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100039, China"},{"name":"Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd, Changchun 130102, China"}]},{"given":"Lei","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130033, China"},{"name":"University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100039, China"},{"name":"Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd, Changchun 130102, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"90","article-title":"Technology development and application prospects of CubeSat","volume":"22","author":"Lin","year":"2013","journal-title":"Spacecr.
