abstract = "The space simulation chambers are systems used to recreate as
closely as possible the thermal environmental conditions that
spacecraft experience in space, as well as also serve to space
components qualification and material research used in spacecraft.
These systems analyze spacecraft behavior, evaluating its thermal
balance, and functionalities to ensure mission success and
survivability. The objective of this chapter is to give a broad
overview on space simulation chambers, describe which are the
environmental parameters of space that can be simulated in this
type of ground test facilities, types of the space environment
simulators, class of phenomena generated inside, and the
technological evolution of these systems from its conception. This
chapter describes the basic systems and devices that compose the
space simulation chambers.",
