    What is a valid assumption for modeling electrical systems as heat sources?

    OK, thanks all. I think I'll go back to my original assumption and have the heat load being equal to the input load for systems without obvious outputs of energy. My supervisor asked me to look into it, and I have. Not much else I can do. Lol Cheers!

    What is a valid assumption for modeling electrical systems as heat sources?

    I have already taken the 85% efficiency of the EPS into account. I was originally using the assumption that the power in has to go somewhere so it must become heat, but that means that the processing of information and anything else the system, for example the OBC, does uses 0 power. There are...

    What is a valid assumption for modeling electrical systems as heat sources?

    Hi all, I've been looking for an answer to this for a while now but I can't explain to Google what I want to know. Hope I have better luck here. I'm an aerospace engineer working on a satellite project. In particular I'm currently working on the thermal analysis and I need to model up each of...
