SP-100 power system, the present status and assessment of power conditioning and control technologies

摘要

The objective of this task was to establish and evaluate what power conditioning and control (PCC) technologies need to be developed and what impact the availability and development of PCC technologies will have on ground demonstration development decision. The approach was to begin to understand the mission requirements and the resulting system requirements, and the requirements that SP-100 imposes on the PCC subsystem. This was followed by the assessment of PCC technologies, current state-of-the-art and future developements, followed by the identification of needed technology elements.
