radioisotope generator การใช้
- The pressurized rovers would be powered by a 5 kilowatt Stirling radioisotope generator on each rover.
- United States government labs have developed a modern Stirling engine design known as the Stirling Radioisotope Generator for use in space exploration.
- Systems with radioisotope generators simulated by electric heaters have demonstrated efficiencies of 20 %, but have not yet been tested with radioisotopes.
- *The ASRG is not really an RTG : it uses a Stirling power device that runs on radioisotope ( see Stirling radioisotope generator ).
- The "'Stirling Radioisotope Generator "'( "'SRG "') is a generator based on a Stirling engine powered by a large radioisotope heater unit.
- :Currently, I think that the most efficient way to turn isotope heat ( which requires less " heavy shielding " ) in to motive power is to use an Advanced Stirling Radioisotope Generator.
- NASA and DOE have been developing a next-generation radioisotope-fueled power source called the Stirling Radioisotope Generator ( SRG ) that uses free-piston Stirling engines coupled to linear alternators to convert heat to electricity.
- To provide 250 kW with Stirling radioisotope generators would require roughly 1 tonne of plutonium-238 ( for which the US stockpile as of 2013 was no more than 20 kg ), and so a nuclear thermal reactor would be needed.
- It produces and supply a variety of radioisotope products including radioisotope generators, sealed radiation sources, radiochemicals, labelled compounds of carbon-14, tritium and sulphur-35 and nucleotides labelled with phosphorus-32, radiopharmaceuticals and RIA kits, gamma radiography equipment and gamma laboratory irradiator systems to users in the country and abroad.
- Whereas the full " active " reactor system in a nuclear thermal rocket can be expected to generate over a gigawatt, a radioisotope generator might get 5 kW . This means that the design, while highly efficient, can produce thrust levels of perhaps 1.3 to 1.5 N, making them useful only for thrusters.
