An update on the SP-100 reactor subsystem design and performance is provided. Several key requirements have influenced the design substantially as the more detailed nuclear, thermal/hydraulic, and structural analyses have been completed for the various mission phases including accident safety performance characteristics.
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.
In this work it is studied a system with a fast nuclear reactor, with similar characteristics to the SP-100, aiming at generating high electric power in space for a future application on the TERRA (Advanced Fast Reactor Technology) Project of IEAv (Institute for Advanced Studies).
SP-100 (Space reactor Prototype [1]) was a U.S. research program for nuclear fission reactors usable as small fission power systems for spacecraft. [2] It was started in 1983 by NASA , the US Department of Energy and other agencies.
The NASA, DOD, and DOE triagency SP-100 Pro- gram has recently embarked on a major effort to demonstrate the technology readiness of nuclear reactor space power systems for space applications by 1992. This program is termed the SP-100 ground engineerin system (GES) in which system safety and typica? reactor and aerospace (conversion,
1 Ιαν 1991 · The SP-100 Program is developing a nuclear reactor power system that can enhance and/or enable future civilian and military space missions. The program is directed to develop space reactor technology to provide electrical power in the range of tens to hundreds of kilowatts.
