First Principles Analysis of Heat Exchanger Concepts and Designs for a Closed CO2 Brayton Cycle with Regeneration for a Lunar Fission to Surface Power System
Abstract:The overall scope of this article is to develop and investigate different heat exchanger concepts for a closed CO2 Brayton power cycle with regeneration that is part of the fission to surface power system (FSPS) concept from NASA, designed to function as a lunar outpost. The heat exchangers investigated are designed with the goal of utilizing ‘off the shelf technology’ and a sub-goal to ensure the heat exchangers designed are integrated into the FSPS as a whole. The FSP system utilizes two streams as the hot a… Show more
