Specific Request:
Evaluate the sensitivity of the tracker tray temperature with respect to the thermal interface
gasket. Verify heat transfer coefficient in T/V cycling.
Supporting Rational:
The main heat transfer path for the tracker tray stack of electronics is across an interface that is
mechanically decoupled, but thermally connected to the grid. The integrity of this joint is critical
to the thermal design.
