      Working stateParameter setting
      Low temperature condition(1) Telescope is not in working mode; (2) Thermal control coating takes initial-life parameter; (3) Calculation date is December 21, at this time |β| angle is the smallest and the external heat flow is the smallest, the solar constant is 1322 W/m2
      High temperature condition(1) Telescope works continuously for 10 h; (2) Thermal control coating takes end-of-life parameter; (3) Calculation date is September 3, at this time |β| angle is the largest and the external heat flow is the largest, the solar constant is 1412 W/m2
