spacecraft-thermal-sensor

A thermal sensor module for spacecraft temperature monitoring. This module provides a flexible and configurable thermal sensor implementation that can be used in spacecraft control systems.

Installation

npm install spacecraft-thermal-sensor

Usage

const { ThermalSensor } = require('spacecraft-thermal-sensor');

// Create a thermal sensor with default configuration
const sensor = new ThermalSensor();

// Or with custom configuration
const customSensor = new ThermalSensor({
    minTemp: -100,
    maxTemp: 200,
    fluctuation: 10,
    unit: '°C'
});

// Get a temperature reading
const reading = sensor.getReading();
console.log(reading);
// Output:
// {
//     temperature: 50.5,
//     unit: '°C',
//     timestamp: '2024-01-31T12:00:00.000Z',
//     status: 'NORMAL'
// }

Configuration Options

• minTemp (number): Minimum temperature range (default: -50)
• maxTemp (number): Maximum temperature range (default: 150)
• fluctuation (number): Temperature fluctuation range (default: 5)
• unit (string): Temperature unit (default: '°C')

Temperature Status

The sensor provides three status levels based on the current temperature:

• NORMAL: Temperature is within safe range
• WARNING: Temperature is approaching critical levels (within 20% of max range)
• CRITICAL: Temperature is at dangerous levels (within 10% of max range)
