On the method for calculation of radioisotope thermoelectic generator with variable characteristics temperature radiatior

Description

The purpose of the investigation is to substantiate the selection of a method for calculating characteristics of a radioisotope thermoelectric generator in which the amount of removed heat is determined by the radiator temperature. It is shown that for calculation of the characteristics it is expedient to use a method based on the constancy of the heat source thermal power and linearity of the volt-ampere characteristics. It is noted that the proposed method can be used for designing generators of any type
