In order to keep the temperature of CCD on an attitude-varied space camera within a limited range
a thermal control system of CCD focal plane assembly (CFPA) is designed. A thermal switch
which is the crucial part in the thermal control system
is designed with different kinds of materials. Considering the characteristics of structure of the attitude-varied space camera and its orbit
the scheme of two radiators controlling by thermal switch is presented
and the thermal design of CFPA is stated. Performance of the thermal control system was simulated with the code I-DEAS/TMG. It is shown that the temperature fluctuation of CCD is 12.34℃ on the condition of passive-thermal-control
whereas 1.73℃ on the condition of both passive-thermal-control and active-thermal-control. The thermal control system could meet the requirement of mission
