Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) is a particle-physics detector from a module attached to the outside of the International Space Station (ISS). The temperature of the components in AMS-02 must be kept within their different operational ranges but also must be stable over both time and volume. Thermal modeling and simulations for the radiator and the electronic crates of AMS-02 were carried out by applying the Crank–Nicholson implicit solution. Based on reducing the temperature gradient of the radiator and the mass of the thermal control system, the layout of the heat pipes in the radiator was optimized to solve the overheating issue of the electronic crates. The non-operational and operational temperature dissipation for the thermal control system was calculated. The analysis results for the radiator and the electronic crates can meet the running requirements of AMS-02 on the ISS.
