Inthebrutaltemperatureenvironmentinmoonsurfacewiththerangeof-180℃to90℃,itneedstosolvetheLunarBasedUltravioletTelescope(LUT)heatdissipationduringlunardaytimeandheatpreservationduringmoonlitnightwithoutelectricenergysupply.Inordertosolvetheheatconsumptiontransmission,discharge,andtheheatpreservationproblemofmoonnight,apassiveheatpipethermalswitch(HPTS)wasproposedasameansoflongdistanceheattransferbetweenthedeviceandtheradiator,accordingtothephasetransitioncharacteristicsoftheworkingfluid.Dependingontheequipmenttemperatureindex,aworkingfluidwithsuitablefreezingpointandheattransfercapacitywasselected.TheHPTSwasfilledwithworkingfluid,whichcantransmitenergyfromevaporatortocondenserbyphasechange.Inextremelylowtemperatureofthenight,theworkingfluidisfrozen,itcausestheconnectiontobeinterrupted,andthentheLUTcanbemaintainedabovethesurvivaltemperature.IthasbeenproventhroughthegroundtestandinorbitresultthattheswitchingratioofHPTSisgreaterthan30nearthefreezingpoint.Ataworkingtemperatureof7℃,theheattransfercapacityofHPTSisgreaterthan15W,andheattransfertemperaturedifferenceislessthan4℃.Inaddition,theHPTScanaccommodateLander′stiltof±15°.AllthepropertiesoftheHPTSensurethattheLUTonLanderworksinorbitwithhighperformance.
