Technical Session XII: The Next Generation
Abstract
As part of the Air Force Institute of Technology's efforts to develop and fly a novel imaging chromotomographic spectrometer payload in space, this work accomplished an investigation of hermetic enclosures to house commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) components. Rationale for expending research efforts herein is attributable to enabling use of electronics which may not be available in a space-qualified form for years and to reduce cost/schedule constraints. Thermal modeling was validated through performance of a design, analysis and test campaign.
