Control moment gyroscopes serving as high-power attitude actuators for large spacecraft require sustained lubrication performance of their high-speed bearings to ensure long-term operation. A critical challenge arises from the temperature-dependent release rate of lubricant stored in oil reservoirs, combined with structural constraints that impede direct temperature measurement at key bearing nodes. To address this issue, this study develops a thermal network modeling methodology for control moment gyroscopes that enables comprehensive and precise temperature estimation across all critical components. Experimental validation via thermal equilibrium tests demonstrates strong agreement between the measured and simulated temperatures (with an error coefficient of less than 12 %). The verified thermal network model provides an effective theoretical framework for the on-orbit thermal management and failure early warning of control moment gyroscopes, thereby enhancing operational reliability and extending lifespan. This methodology offers significant value for precision thermal control in advanced aerospace instrumentation systems.
