Abstract
A telecommunications satellite stabilized on three axes includes a set of dissipative equipment constituting a payload of the satellite. The satellite includes support data transmission antennas and is substantially parallelepipedal in shape with the panels forming two opposite faces, east and west faces. The panels form two additional opposite faces, north and south faces, and include radiator surfaces on their external faces. The radiator surfaces are configured to cool the electronic equipment of the satellite. The equipment installed on the north and south panels dissipate thermal power corresponding to less than 25% of the total dissipated power.
