Definitions are given for spacecraft-surface thermal environment characteristics. Lumped-parameter thermal network modeling techniques are derived for spacecraft thermal environment analysis. The application of these techniques to thermal/vacuum testing is described. A major computer program required by these techniques is outlined. It is noted that this approach has been used to determine thermal environments for the Skylab ATM.
