    Curium fueled generators for lunar and space missions : preliminary safety analysis report /

    No full text
    Two thermoelectric generators that use Cmp242s as the heat source are described. One, designed for a lunar 12,480 c. The second, designed for a satellite or space probe mission, is fueled with 6.18 g having an activity of 20,400 c. Preparation of the fuel, assembly of the generator, and the launching of the vehicle are considered. Accidents that may occur in the launching of the vehicle are analyzed and the fate of the fuel in the event of an aborted mission or upon reentry of the vehicle after the completion of a mission are determined."June, 1960."Includes bibliographical references (p. 49).Two thermoelectric generators that use Cmp242s as the heat source are described.

    SNAP I radioisotope-fueled turboelectric power conversion system summary : January 1957 to June 1959 /

    No full text
    The SNAP I development program was initiated to develop a 500-watt turboelectric power conversion system for space applications, Superheated mercury vapor was used as the heat conversion working fluid. The conversion system was to obtain thermal energy from the decay of a radioisotope fuel such as Cep144s . Each of the major components and systems is summarized with respect to initial design objectives, development progress to the point of program termination, results obtained from tests and, where indicated, future growth potential. Reference is made to 10 other reports which describe, in detail, the major components of this power generating system. Also included is a bibliography of documented reports that are related to the power conversion system design criteria or system integration into a flight vehicle.
