cooling in Vacuum
(OP)
I am looking for a way for cooling a red pitaya Microcontroller in a test vacuum chamber, where its a pendulum to measure the thrust of a tested electric engine for satellite use.
Here is the weight of the used method important. We thought of a radiator, are there any other ideas?
Thanks

RE: cooling in Vacuum
But, for the test case in the vacuum chamber, you need to decide if you are going to cool the engine, or going to test the entire assembly (engine, heat transfer blocks, and radiator design and exposure. If only testing the engine, the the final heat transfer blocks can be mounted to simple (vacuum-proof) plates with internal cooling ports for any liquid of your choice - including water or alcohol or oil or even a gas like Argon or Helium. As long as the cooling liquid does not leak from the plates nor the tubes connecting the plaes to the vacuum chamber wall connections, you don't care what the final arrangement will be while testing the engine.
Later? Everything must be at the real vacuum condition of darkness, absorbtion and emissivity of the wall, wall coldness, vacuum, and light.
