Abstract
A radiator, comprising at least one heat conductive layer with pyrolytic graphite material and an in-plane heat conductivity of at least 500 W/m·K. The radiator further comprises at least one heat emission layer that is in contact with the heat conductive layer, wherein the emission layer has an exposed surface with an emissivity of at least 0.7. The radiator is to be used in combination with a space vehicle structure, and due to its flexible character may be conformed to the particular shapes of such structure.
