AMDROHP

Satellite Name: Additively Manufactured Deployable Radiator with Oscillating Heat Pipes

Schools: California Polytechnic State University, SLO and California State University, LA

Mission: Heat dissipation of satellite components

Project Status: In testing

AMDROHP, or Additively Manufactured Radiator with Oscillating Heat Pipes, is a collaborative mission between Cal Poly, NASA JPL, and Cal State LA. On a spacecraft, certain components may generate significant heat, which can be dangerous to the spacecraft's health. This mission is designed to test the viability of 3D-printed thermal dissipaters in space. The payload is being designed by Cal State LA, produced at JPL Pasadena, and will be integrated into a CubeSat at the Cal Poly CubeSat Laboratory. AMDROHP is scheduled to launch in 2027.
