In this paper the modeling, simulation and exergy analysis of a Closed Brayton Cycle (CBC) for power generation in space driven by a solar parabolic collector is presented. The main objective has been the investigation of a “reduced weight” configuration, to reduce the launch costs, one of the most critical issues for the system feasibility.
NASA has been involved in the development of Closed Brayton Cycle (CBC) power conversion technology since the 1960's. CBC systems can be coupled to reactor, isotope, or solar heat sources and offer the potential for high efficiency, long life, and scalability to high power.
Furthermore, robust and efficient control strategies could control the cycle effectively, and SCO 2 closed Brayton cycles integrated with thermal storage techniques adopting novel thermal medium would provide key technical supports for concentrating solar power at high operation temperature.
Solar (thermal) Dynamic Systems (SDS) seems to be a viable and promising alternative to PVs, according to the literature ( [ 2,,,,,,,, ]). This kind of systems use solar heat to drive a thermal cycle (Brayton, Rankine, Stirling or Ericsson) through the concentration of solar radiation into a cavity receiver.
The heat needed for the conversion process is provided by the solar collector, which consist of a parabolic concentrator and a receiver. The concentrator allows the Energy Conversion System (ECS) to convert solar thermal energy into mechanical work (shaft power) achieving temperatures of about 1700 K [16 ].
Space Solar Dynamic Systems promise to be a better alternative to PVs by eliminating the need for batteries, offering lower drag problems and high efficiencies taking advantage of the lower temperature of space.
