“…In the case of solid samples, a KBr plate was made with a press (Specac). 1 H and 13 C NMR spectra were recorded in CDCl 3 at room temperature on a Bruker Advance DPX 200 spectrometer using 5 mm sample tubes. Proton and carbon resonances were referenced internally to tetramethylsilane (TMS).…”

“…Batteries used to store energy on board of space vehicles must fulfil severe requirements: high energy density, long term cycling, high charge efficiency, low self-discharge [1,2]. This is especially true in the case of recent high power (above 10 kW) long life (10-15 years) geostationary satellites where the battery's weight may represent up to 10% that of the satellite making it the heaviest satellite's component.…”

“…1,2 Compared to cells used on earth, cells as satellite power sources must demonstrate a very long cycle life and extreme reliability under charge and discharge conditions that are severely restricted by the satellite orbit. [3][4][5][6][7] Typically, a low earth orbit ͑LEO͒ satellite with an altitude of less than 1,000 km requires that the cells experience over 20,000 consecutive charge and discharge cycles with charge ͑discharge͒ durations of 60 ͑30͒ min. To achieve such a long cycle life, conventional Ni-Cd and Ni-H 2 cells utilize a low depth of discharge ͑DOD͒ of 25 to 40% and a charge mode of constant currentconstant voltage ͑CC-CV͒ in addition to battery design.…”

Since battery performance is the main factor affecting on-orbit satellite operation, it is very important to understand the degradation mechanism of battery performance and operating conditions. In particular, a lithium ͑Li͒ ion cell used as a satellite power source may be subjected to high charge and discharge rates, and the cell volume change during the charge-discharge cycle might cause the mechanical degradation of the electrode. In this work, we used two in situ methods, load cell measurement and X-ray observation, to investigate the cell volume change of a commercial Li-ion polymer cell with charging and discharging An excess cell volume change that was delayed with respect to the change induced by the state of charge was observed at high charge and discharge rates. We attributed this phenomenon to the slow diffusion of Li ions in the electrode active materials and slow structural change in the outer region of the electrode particle. Furthermore, we deduced that the outer region of the electrode particle, rather than the inner region, was mainly responsible for the excess cell volume change.

“…In these cases of subzero temperatures, a reduction of useable capacity during discharging and rapid degradation of the cells during charging are expected. General limits for Li-ion batteries, often stated in datasheets, are charging down to 0 • C, discharging to −20 • C. Gave et al introduced cells, being able to discharge at −40 • C with 100 Wh/kg and repetitive charging at −20 • C [21]. Farmakis et al demonstrated cells being able to cycle at −40 • C with 140 Wh/kg [22].…”

A Review of Battery Technology in CubeSats and Small Satellite Solutions

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

CubeSats and small satellite solutions are increasing in popularity as they enable a fast, cheap, and agile way for satellite applications. An essential component of nearly every satellite is the energy storage device, which is practically equal to a battery. Consequently, an overview of past, present, and future battery technologies for CubeSats is presented. CubeSats use typically commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) batteries. They are not primarily dedicated to space, so their suitability to the space environment needs to be evaluated. Batteries are also considered as potentially dangerous goods. Thus, there are guidelines and standards that specify safety criteria and tests for the batteries in order to be allowed for transportation and launch. Furthermore, the character of satellites’ missions determines their demand on batteries in terms of current rates, depth-of-discharge, and lifetime. Thus, these expectations are discussed. A market survey was also carried out to identify currently available commercial battery solutions and their parameters. This work summarizes the status, requirements, and the market situation of batteries for CubeSats.
