Abstract

In this paper, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of a radiator for focal plane assemblies, a topology optimization method is introduced into the design process. For the realization of the optimization, an objective of maximal thermal stiffness concerning the radiator is formulated. The topology optimization is performed under the same mass constraint of 2.05 kg as the initial design. To improve the manufacturability of topology optimization result, an inverse design is conducted to reconstruct a new model. In transient thermal simulation, the average maximal temperature on focal plane assemblies with a reconstructed radiator is 8.626 °C, while the average maximal temperature with the initial design is 9.793 °C. Compared to the initial design, a decrease of 1.167 °C on maximal temperature is achieved. As the heat dissipation efficiency of the proposed radiator design is improved compared to the initial design, it is meaningful in future applications.
