AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on selecting the best software for thermal analysis of remote sensing satellites, with ANSYS frequently mentioned as a common choice. Users emphasize that the best software depends on affordability and usability, suggesting that if ANSYS is not accessible, alternatives should be considered. The original poster seeks software capable of analyzing radiation heat transfer, electronic board dissipation, and calculating view factors for radiation transfer. Participants confirm that ANSYS can handle these specific thermal analysis requirements. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of software capabilities in thermal control simulations for satellite structures.

I am Baltistani
Help me resolving my confusion and dificuty
1- Which one is the best software for thermal analysis of a remote sensing satellite
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Why would you need to analyse remote sensing satellites?
 
dear i am studying satellites structure and thermal control and trying to simulate an assumed satellite configuration.So please help me
 
ANSYS is always the common one for thermal analysis.
 
The best software is the one you can afford and use. If ANSYS is not an option, then it's not the best. The OP will have to give a bit more detail as to what he/she has available to work with.
 
I need a software which could analyse specially radiation heat transfer electronics boards dissipation and their distribution as well as calculating view factors for radiation transfer Is ansys capable of calculating View Factor and radiation problems

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
