Thermal management & protection

Allatherm key specialisation and know-how is based on the profound expertise of two-phase heat transfer technology and devices including thermal superconductors such as heat pipes and heat loops – master elements for next-generation of thermal management systems.

We develop, design, manufacture and test thermal management systems for the aerospace, energy, scientific, telecommunication and automotive industries.

An example of Allatherm’s space projects is the development of the Xenon Refueling Compressor for the ESA’s ESPRIT Refuelling Module for the large-scale international Lunar Gateway project.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES IN SPACE

  • Thermal management systems (loop heat pipes, thermosiphons, passive thermal control valves)
  • Thermal compression systems (high purity fluid / gas compressors without any moving parts)

EQUIPMENT

  • equipment for metal processing (CNC and manual lathes, CNC and manual milling machines, diverse hand tools); welding equipment (automatic TIG welding lathe, orbital welding, manual welding equipment); vacuum equipment (high-vacuum and low-vacuum pumps, high-vacuum chambers); equipment for porous material production (high-temperature vacuum furnace, high-pressure isostatic press, fume hood, induction furnace); test data processing (computers, data acquisition systems, measuring equipment, custom software).
  • facilities: design offices and long-term agreements with leading research centres in Latvia and Spain; 420 m2 industrial facilities close to Riga.

MAJOR SPACE PROJECTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS

  • One example of the ongoing large-scale project is Allatherm participation in the Lunar Gateway project, contributing to the European Space Agency’s ESPRIT Refuelling Module that supplies xenon as fuel
  • Other projects include the development of heat transfer systems intended for use in crewed and non-crewed service modules for various space missions.

CURRENT AND TARGET PARTNERSHIP

  • Allatherm specialists have collaborated with the major space agencies and organisations: ESA, OHB System, Tesat-Spacecom, Thales Alenia Space (France, Italy, Spain), Airbus Defence & Space (France, Germany, England, Spain), CSA, CNES, DLR, JAXA, INVAP, SELEX Galileo, SENER, INTA, RYMSA, Max Planck Institute, Jena Optronik, Space Engineering S.p.A., Lavochkin Association, Korolev RSC Energia, Roscosmos, CGS S.p.A. Compagnia Generale per lo Spazio, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Kayser-Threde GmbH and others.
  • Looking for cooperation for thermal management projects, development of technologies, testing and consulting.
