Diagnostic and Monitoring System for Technical Condition of Electromechanical Section of Thermal Control Systems in Spacecraft

Modern diagnostics methods ensuring the safety of production and operation, as well as the improvement of functional characteristics of electromechanical systems' are discussed, method of diagnostics according to the spectrum and hodograph of the engine's equivalent current is presented. Functional concept is presented for the system of control, diagnostic and monitoring of technical condition of thermal control systems' electromechanical part in the spacecraft. The decision-making and forecasting algorithm for the operational resource is based on ground-based studies and diagnostic results. This approach to device diagnostics and monitoring is also used in other servo drives, mechatronic and robotic systems of space vehicles and other objects that are inaccessible and left unattended. Hardware-algorithmic implementation of the system is described, recommendations on the components base selection are given.
