摘要

Abstract

ive phased array antenna typically featured high performance

high device integration

and high heat flux

making it difficult to dissipate heat. Diamond

the substance with the closest arrangement of atoms in nature

has the advantages of a high thermal conductivity and strong adaptability to the space environment. The batch applications of high-thermal-conductivity diamonds for the thermal management of the phased array antennas of the inter-satellite links were introduced in this paper. The diamond was developed by the direct-current arc-plasma chemical vapor deposition method. The product size

thermal conductivity

precision

and application scale all met the engineering requirements. The high-precision assembly of the diamond and the structural frame enabled the efficient heat collection and transfer from the distributed point heat sources of multiple transmit/receive (T/R) modules. Verified on the ground

the thermal matching design between the diamond and the metal frame exhibited an outstanding heat dissipation performance. After four satellites using the diamonds were launched

the flight data showed good antenna thermal control

with temperature gradients of the T/R modules less than 2.2 °C

further verifying the rationality and effectiveness of using high-thermal-conductivity diamonds in the thermal design and implementation of antennas.
