3. You have been given a budget of $15K to design a thermal control system for the mission and a goal of imaging as many planets as possible along the way. You have the following choices (or you may research your own methods). Assume each kg of mass added adds $25,000 to the cost of the mission. Thermal Coating Emissivity Mass Notes Insulation 0.05 0.3 kg/m2 Passive system White paint* 0.85 Negligible Passive system Black paint* * 0.874 Negligible Passive system Radiators 0.8 0.6 kg/m2 Passive system Radiations w/louvers" 0.05 - 0.8 2.1 kg/m2 Active system eaters 0.025 kg/W Active system Absorptivity of 0.252 *Absorptivity of 0.975 " Each location requires the use of a controller with a mass of .2 kg and power requirement of 2 W. Also indicate range of emissivity used in your design ^ Thermal input based on power requirements
