Education and Outreach – ICES Panel
• Draw on SESPC experience and to create an interactive forum to share
and educate the community
• Focused on design and test margins
• Participation from NASA, industry, and international committee members
• Not able to be accommodated this year, but looking forward to moving
forward with this in the future
- Possible to have this after daily sessions so as not to conflict with papers
- Need to plan in advance to make sure this is in the schedule for next year

Proposed Panel Description
Testing margins beyond expected temperatures and numbers of cycles are often a topic of
discussion near the end of a program to preserve schedule and cost with the large amount
of support staff necessary. However, design margins prior to the manufacture of a design
have not been given as much scrutiny in the thermal community. It can be argued that the
design margins could have a greater impact on power, mass, and cost (via complexity)
margins over the life of a program than the testing margins near the end. Since the design
margins necessitate the commitment of resources and consequently can impact other
subsystems, it is important to design a system that is robust enough to meet requirements
but not so over-designed as to erode cost and schedule margins to implement the
design. This session seeks to provide some transparency to the design process and
margins held in a design among various organizations and to open the topic for discussion
as to what are appropriate levels of margin and risk to incur on flight programs.
