Abstract
A heat transfer assembly (HTA) includes an equipment panel having a first longitudinal length and a first radiator panel that is coupled to one of an east end and a west end of the equipment panel. The first radiator panel is longer in the longitudinal direction than the equipment panel and has least one longitudinal heat pipe. The HTA also includes at least one flexible heat pipe having a first rigid tube coupled to the equipment panel, a second rigid tube thermally coupled to the first longitudinal heat pipe, and a flexible tube coupled between the first and second rigid tubes. The equipment panel is configured to retain an equipment module in thermal contact with the first rigid tube.
