The design concept consists of a 2500 kWt (kilowatt thermal) SP-100 reactor coupled to eight free-piston Stirling engines. Two of the engines are held in reserve to provide conversion system redundancy.
The SP-100 program develops, validates, and demonstrates the technology for space nuclear power systems in the range of 10 to 1000 kilowatts electric for use in future military and civilian space missions.
31 Δεκ 2014 · This document reviews the design status of the SP-100, heat pipe space nuclear reactor system. It also identifies those systems and components requiring additional research to support continued SP-100 system development.
The second design combines Brayton conversion with the SP-100 reactor in an erectable 550-kWe powerplant concept intended to satisfy later-phase lunar base power requirements.
AUTHOR(S) Lewis COVERED Memorandum (Maxlmum 20 2OO words) This study examines the potential for integrating Brayton-cycle power conversion with the SP-100 reactor for lunar surface power system applications. Two designs were characterized and modeled. The first design integrates a 100-kWe SP-100 Brayton power system with a lunar lander.
1 Φεβ 1989 · A conceptual design is presented for a nuclear power system utilizing an SP-100 reactor and multiple Stirling cycle engines for operation on the lunar surface.
1 Απρ 2003 · The SP100 space nuclear reactor was designed for use as an orbital power supply, lunar or Martian surface power station, and power supply for nuclear electric propulsion, with a scaleable power range of 10's kWe to 100's kWe.
