6 FAQs about [Nepal deployable solar arrays]

Why do small satellites need a solar array?

Thus large (5-20 m) lightweight deployable booms are critically needed for small satellites. These booms must not only provide stiffness and thermal stability, they must also be reliably deployed after being stowed for many years. Solar Arrays generate the power to run all electric subsystems of the hosting satellite.

Which solar array is best for small spacecraft?

Classical solar arrays are based on hinged panels for “accordion type” deployment. Small spacecraft require lighter arrays with higher packaging efficiency. Thus flexible substrates and deployable booms are being used to lightweight solar arrays for small spacecraft.

What is a transformational solar array?

The Transformational Solar Array uses Deployable Space System’s (DSS) Roll Out Solar Array (ROSA) as a structure and equips the array with very high efficiency SolAero Inverted Metamorphic (IMM) solar cells and reflective concentrators. Figure 1 is a photograph of a ROSA array without concentrators.

What is a solar array made of?

Our solar arrays are manufactured on PCBs or honeycomb aluminium substrates covered with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) layers, integrated sensors, etc. Electrical Power Systems (EPS) designed to be integrated into different CubeSat platforms from 1U to quad deployable 16U.

Are NASA solar panels GEVs-compliant?

Think highly reliable, low-mass, NASA GEVS-compliant solutions that fit within most CubeSat deployment mechanisms. The AAC Clyde Space PHOTON solar panels are designed for maximum power generation and ease of platform integration. The panels are used by our own missions.

Do small spacecraft need a solar array?

Small spacecraft on deep space missions require more electrical power than what is currently offered by existing technology. The four-petal solar array of LISA-T is a thin-film solar array that offers lower mass, lower stowed volume, and three times more power per mass and volume allocation than current solar arrays.
