Thermal control

Get heat management that keeps your electronics flying

Emergent Spacecraft Heat Solutions designs PCB embedded vapor chambers, wedge locks, and autonomous liquid cooling for spacecraft hardware that can't overheat.

Our approach

The thermal problem isn't more cooling

Thermal management for spacecraft electronics isn't about adding more cooling. It's about engineering the path for heat to leave. Our hardware is specified and built for that job.

PCB embedded vapor chambers. Spreads heat directly at the board level, cutting hot spots before they reach the chassis.

High conductance wedge locks. Transfers heat from the card edge into the enclosure, so it leaves instead of pooling.

Autonomous liquid cooling. A standalone system with its own microprocessor and valves, regulating coolant without a host command.

Engineer Reviews

Thermal hardware that holds up in review

Engineers evaluating our PCB embedded vapor chambers and wedge locks checked the numbers. Here's what they said about performance. Real feedback, grounded in test data.

The vapor chamber held our target junction temperature through the full thermal cycle. The data matched the spec sheet, which is rare for new hardware.

Marcus Chen

Senior Thermal Engineer at SmallSat Systems

We swapped in the high conductance wedge locks and saw a measurable drop in board temperature. Installation was straightforward, and the interface resistance was as stated.

Elena Petrova

Spacecraft Hardware Lead at AeroTest Labs

The autonomous liquid cooling loop managed the transient load without manual tuning. The standalone microprocessor kept the valve response where it needed to be.

David Okafor

Electronics Integration Engineer at Orbital Dynamics

Clean drawings, clean tolerances. We appreciated that the thermal interface material was pre-applied and the mounting holes lined up on the first pass.

Sofia Ramirez

Mechanical Design Engineer at Parallel Systems

We reviewed the vapor chamber test report before delivery. The flatness and wick performance checks were solid. That level of documentation builds confidence.

James Whitfield

Procurement Specialist at Vertex Aerospace

The wedge lock held firm through vibration testing. No sign of loosening, and the board stayed seated. Simple in the best way.
