6 Radiative cooling of telescope Would the telescope be thermally disconnected from the spacecraft, it would cool down radiatively: A mass of 400 Kg of Al with a 3m 2 surface blackbody radiating to cold space would get to 4 K in 44 days (more or less the cruise to L2). The key is then to limit the heat transfer from the spacecraft and from the sun, earth, etc. Planck did it very well using V.grooves to limit radiation, low conductivity struts and pipes. We might be able to do better with FPP: –Little power dissipation from detectors –Lower number of pipes / Waveguides –Use of Passive Orbital Disconnecting Struts (PODS) –Use of part of the 20K pulse tube cooling power (or a second, dedicated one) Spacecraft 300K Telescope 30K or less Radiative heat transfer Conductive heat transfer

7 Spitzer: Gamma-alumina/epoxy composite struts (yellow) : Better than fiberglass (COBE) and Titanium struts.

8 or gamma-alumina

9 Mass Budget TBD

10 Heat Load Budget On the 0.1K stage: –Superconduncting wiring for 200 (?) SQUIDs multiplexing 2000 detectors, + first stage SQUIDs dissipation (2  W) –Supports for focal plane assembly (cold plate, horns, filters) On the 4K stage: –Wiring for readout electronics –Support system to 20K stage –Load from 0.1K cooler On the 20K stage –Load from support system to 30-40K radiatively cooled stage –Load from 4K cooler (300 mW) On the 40K stage –Load from support system to 300K stage –Residual radiative load through V.grooves –Load from 20K cooler (partial)
