Thermal Analysis Software

A new version of Space Payload Thermal Analyzer (SSPTA) that can be used on a 386 personal computer was developed by Nicholas Teti. SSPTA/386 software package includes the programs that Goddard has traditionally used in thermal design and analysis. The original programs were modified to run on the 386 system and automatic data transfer between programs was improved. SSPTA/386 includes all the features available in Goddard's VAX version of SSPTA. The software package is highly flexible in that it allows the user to run the programs interactively or in batch mode. It provides a menu system that allows the user to select a program or a combination of programs.
