Rastenia Experiment
Purpose:
Evidence of a capability of monitoring temperature sensors stability in a space flight by the correction method of their ground calibration characteristics (temperature plateau) of a phase transition of working medium in the cell.
Objectives:
- Study of the melting and crystallization processes (phase transition) of working medium in the experimental cell.
- Study of a capability to provide stability of the temperature sensors characteristics in spaceflight conditions using the phase transition phenomenen.
- Obtaining results required hereinafter during development of a procedure for automatic correction of characteristics of temperature sensors being a part of humidity sensors for root-inhabited media of green-houses to compensate the bias error of temperature sensors during long-term operation in spaceflight conditions.
Science Hardware Used:
- Set TERMO-LADA consisting of:
- TK-LADA Module;
- TK-LADA PU Kit;
- TK-LADA Module.
Expected Results:
Monitoring both the state of experimental cells with media investigated and provision of thermal contacts by all temperature sensors having an effect on SE results interpretation.
Experiment Results:
TK-LADA Modules with CF-memory cards.
