Abstract
A heat transfer control structure includes: an outer shell having an outer surface and an inner surface, the outer shell being heated by airflow along the outer surface; an inner shell disposed opposed to the inner surface of the outer shell, the inner shell being configured to accommodate a payload therein; and a plate coupled to the inner shell such that the plate is opposed to the inner shell across a gap. The outer shell is coupled to the plate.
