Abstract

The paper presents the results of measuring thermal conductivity and heat capacity of a flexible thermal insulation. Flexible thermal insulation is a highly porous fibrous material, a construction that includes felt, covered on all sides with fabric. The whole structure is stitched with a thread. The fibrous core, fabric and sewing thread are composed of silica fibers. Thermal conductivity was measured by the stationary method on flat samples. The heat capacity was determined using a NT-1000 calorimeter. The calculation of heat transfer was carried out for the conditions characteristic of those in effect when the spacecraft entered the orbit.
