Determining the Temperature on the Sides of a Microsatellite / Arizpe Carreon P.A. // Vestnik Moskovskogo Universiteta. Seriya 1. Matematika. Mekhanika. 2010. № 5. P. 44-48 [Moscow Univ. Mech. Bulletin. Vol. 65, No 5, 2010. P. 105-109].

An approach to determine the temperature on the sides of a satellite is proposed depending on the thermal coefficients of absorption and emissivity as well as on the altitude and inclination of the satellite orbit. The shape of the satellite, the solar heat radiation, the Earth's heat radiation, and the Earth's albedo are considered among the other factors affecting the satellite.

Key words: heat transfer, radiation, absorption, satellite, energy balance.
