| Popis: | Satellites and space application devices demands high efficiency with size, volume, mass and losses reduced simultaneously due to low power generation in space orbit and the relation between mass and the overall space mission cost. To minimize costs and promote high acess to universities, small companies and institutes a nanosatellite was developed in early 2000, the CubeSat class. Therefore the need to save energy is mandatory in all systems due to low power generation and reduced size. This work focuses in the electrical power supply (EPS), system responsible to generate, store, conditioning and supply electrical power for the whole satellite. Thus is presented a comparison between a conventional power converter design and an optimization design methodology for boost power converters in order to improve efficiency, to reduce volume and mass for 1U CubeSat EPS. Results have shown the method effectiveness and efficiency maximization was achieved respecting the 1U CubeSat constraints. |
