Book excerpt: This booklet discusses Systems for Nuclear Auxiliary Power (SNAP), called isotope power generators, that are based on using heat from the decay of radioisotopes to produce electricity. These are the SNAP systems with odd-numbered designators. The basics of radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs) are discussed and their uses as power sources in space exploration and on earth are described. Various radioisotope heat sources are discussed and a table of RTGs built under the SNAP program listing their uses, electrical power, weight, the radioisotope used, the radioisotope's half-life, and the generator life is given.

This book was released on 1973 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Beta-1 and Beta-2 experimental isotopic electrical generators, used as power sources for the ARMS-N Automatic Radio Meteorological Station, were created to check out a number of theoretical premises and design features upon which they are based. The Beta-1 and Beta-2 isotopic thermoelectric generators consist of the following basic components: isotopic and thermal units, a thermopile unit, the housing, a biological safeguard, a thermodischarge system, as well as the generation and storage of electrical energy. The experimental operation of the Beta-2 isotopic thermoelectric generator showed that the installation was reliable in its operation and that the design of the generator and the biological safeguard provide the necessary radiation safety- observing the widely accepted rules for operating the covered ion-emission sources and the rules for operation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this program was to investigation of a novel means of reducing the potential ecologic hazards that may be associated with radiosotopic thermoelectric generators (RTG's). A number of short lived isotopes have lower toxicities and are more ecologically acceptable than the Plutonium 238 used at present. In addition, the shorter half lives significantly reduce the time period during which isotope encapsulation must be assured (approximately 10 half lives). The technical approach involves the use of a gas controlled heat pipe to maintain a nearly constant heat input to the thermoelectric converter in spite of the decay profile of a short lived isotopic heat source. Excess thermal power available early in life, is automatically shorted around the thermoelectric module by way of the heat pipe. A development model of a gas controlled heat pipe capable of performing the required task was constructed and tested during this program.
