Shcherbakov UDC 629.78.048.7.001.24 We present physical and dynamic thermal mathematical models in distributed and lumped parameters, calculation algorithms, software, and some results of numerical calculations of radiative-conductive heat exchange in blocks and modules carrying thermally loaded on-board equipment in a nonhermetic instrumental compartment of a proposed durable communication spacecraft with improved mass, size, and energy characteristics improved in comparison with traditional hermetic compartments.
