The aim of this project is to design, develop, manufacture and test a High performance Loop Heat Pipe for a deployable radiator (in the frame of AlphaBus program) and large power range applications.
The interest in heat pipes as a capillary driven heat transfer device is based on its ability to transport thermal energy at high rates and with small temperature gradients. So the main objective of this project is to develop a European High Temperature Constant Conductance Heat Pipe (HTCCHP) for Alphabus, because the present trend is to increase the operational temperature of dissipating units and consequently, the working temperature range of heat pipe networks.

The Internet of Things (IoT) requires global coverage, which will only be possible to achieve via Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs). Release 17 onward of the 3GPP® specifications include NTN capabilities, with manufacturers of NTN IoT products needing a laboratory based test-bench to test NTN Narrowband (NB)-IoT devices in a simulated space environment. Additionally, satellite network operators need the capability to evaluate system operation long before any satellites are in orbit.
