Temperature Goals{1} Maximum Predict + 10 deg. CMinimum Predict - 5 deg. C
Temperature TolerancesHot: +0/-3 deg. CCold: -0/+3 deg. C
Thermal BalanceTemperature Rate of Change < 0.1 deg.C/hr.
Thermal CyclingMinimum Dwell Time at Plateaus > 12 hoursMaximum Temperature Transition Rate
LAT and Subsytems < 20deg./hr.Cal Crystal Detector Elements < 10deg./hr.
Minimum Number of Cycles 4{1} During hot performance testing, sink temperatures will be adjusted until at least onesubsystem temperature is 10 deg. C beyond its max. temperature predict. During coldperformance testing, sink temperatures will be adjusted until at least one subsystem temperature is 5 deg. C beyond its min. temperature predict. The cold margin requirementis 5 deg. C less because the LAT is actively controlled with heaters. The goal will be to force as many LAT temperatures as feasible 10 deg. C beyond their max. predicts and5 deg. C beyond their min. predicts as possible.

ConclusionsConclusions
• Work still to be performed:– Complete Thermal STE validation test– Add test software GUI to support upload of thermal
parameters– Complete final revision of test procedure– Complete final test preparations at NRL– Hold Test Readiness Review
• Pending completion of the above items, the LAT will be ready for thermal vacuum test
