GABRINETS * Summary: This paper presents the result of preliminary development on a dynamic solar power system suitable for space applications. From the results of this development two schemes that meet most demands have been chosen. Introduction This study has been carried out at Dniepropetrovsk State University to generate and evaluate advanced solar dynamic Brayton cycle engines functioning within the range of 3 to 5 kWt. Solar dynamic systems are of great importance for the future. These systems offer the advantages of safe, reliable power production as compared to other space energy systems. Design concepts of both the systems and the components are presented along with the results of first-order evaluation of the effects of major system design parameters electric power output. The performance of such a system is presented in Table 1. * State University, Dniepropetrovsk, 72 Gargarin Av 320625 Dniepropetrovsk 10 Ukraine This paper was presented at the SPS ‘91 conference.
