26th European Space Thermal Analysis Workshop

20–21 November 2012

ESA/ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands

Introduction

The 26th European Space Thermal Analysis Workshop was held on the 20–21 November 2012 in ESA/ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands. It was organised by the Thermal Analysis and Verification Section of the Thermal Division.

The Workshop was intended to have four main purposes:

• allow an exchange of views on the use of thermal analysis software
• provide a forum for contact between the developers and the users
• present new versions of the software and solicit feedback from users
• present new methodologies, standardisation activities, etc.

Proceedings

The proceedings of the workshop are made up of the “minutes” – a record of the questions and discussion points raised during the sessions – as well as the schedule, list of participants, and all of the presentations themselves. Participants will receive an electronic version of the proceedings. Unlike previous years, there will be no printed copy.

The electronic version of the proceedings consists of PDF files that have been generated at screen-resolution for preview using the Adobe Reader.
Some of the PDF files contain embedded movies, or links to external movies, of pre-recorded demonstrations made during the presentations. On Windows plaforms embedded movies can be played directly from Adobe Reader provided that a current version is installed. On other platforms, or using other PDF readers, embedded movies currently cannot be played. In such cases the external movies can be used, either directly via the links in the PDF file or via a normal web browser by opening the relevant HTML file, provided a Flash/Shockwave player is available on the system. Several players exist for most platforms.

Disclaimer: owing to the inevitable differences between the original authors’ systems, the ESTEC/TEC-MTV machines, and at the end-users’ sites, ESA/ESTEC is unable to guarantee that these documents will produce identical screen or printed output across all combinations of system, font and printer installations.
