FIELD: active temperature control systems of space vehicles working in orbit. SUBSTANCE: device includes reservoir with pressure maintenance source (electric heater) and phase divider (capillary layer on inner walls of reservoir) with structure of perforated fins and grooves between them. Reservoir is connected with loop of temperature control system through the above-mentioned layer by means of tapping pipe line. Device is serviceable both for single-phase and double-phase heat-transfer agent ensuring tapping of liquid phase under weightlessness conditions, as well as metered extraction of steam phase into cleaning system. EFFECT: reduced mass and overall dimensions at increased service life. 2 dwg
