| Popis: | 第25回宇宙利用シンポジウム(2009年1月14日-15日, 宇宙航空研究開発機構宇宙科学研究本部相模原キャンパス) The Twenty-fifth Space Utilization Symposium (January 14-15, 2009: ISAS/JAXA Sagamihara, Japan) A space propulsion system and a power generation system using Water-Energy-Cycle of multi-hundred watts are designed and integrated into a standard rack unit compatible to the Space Station "KIBOU". This newly conceptualized system stores hydrogen and oxygen electrolyzed from water by solar cell energy, while in the reverse cycle, these gases are provided into fuel cells to provide electrical power and water. The stored hydrogen and oxygen are also usable for rocket propellants, and furthermore, the water and oxygen are available for the life support system during manned space activities. The stored hydrogen can be also used as reduction of minerals in the lunar base activities in the future. This time, the unit was integrated and dedicated to several ground-based tests with different attitudes against 1 G gravity direction. 形態: カラー図版あり 資料番号: AA0064297104 |
