Large deployable reflector thermal characteristics in low earth orbitsPreliminary results are presented from the development of a thermal analytical tool capable of analyzing the orbital thermal characteristics of a Large Deployable Reflector (LDR) spaceborne astronomical instrument for observations in the 30-micron to 1-mm range. This LDR thermal analytical tool is a 9X6-node reflector thermal model to be used in conjunction with the thermal analyzer program SINDA, as well as the orbital heat flux program TRASYS for the computation of solar and IR radiation and orbit-related input data.
