Maybe they’ll use a fluid-based heat exchanger?

Expose the tubes to deep space and bleed the heat via radiation.

There is no such thing as Hot or Cold. What we call those things are Energy transfers, and ways to measure them. Without an atmosphere to draw from, or radiate into, it is very hard to transfer that energy.
