ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for removing heat energy of a cooling medium passing from a space suit liquid cooling garment includes a heat sink assembly for absorbing and rejecting the heat energy and a heat transfer means for transferring the heat energy of the cooling medium to the heat sink assembly. The heat transfer means, which is comprised of an array of thermoelectric modules, regulates the quantity of heat energy transferred from the cooling medium to the heat sink assembly. The heat sink assembly includes a material which isothermally changes phase while absorbing heat energy.
