With the development of aerospace manufacturing technology, spacecraft need to withstand increasingly severe flight conditions. The enormous heat flow brought about by high-speed flight and its susceptibility to damage to the internal equipment and structural components of the aircraft. The thermal sealing structure of the gap between the outer thermal insulation layers of a spacecraft is a key component of the spacecraft's thermal protection capability. This article introduces the development status of thermal sealing technology, design methods of spacecraft thermal sealing mechanisms, and several typical thermal sealing structures in aerospace manufacturing.
