Developing an Inflatable Solar Array
[report]
1993
unpublished
L'Garde is developing a light weight deployable solar array wing in the 200-1000 watt range, on the Inflatable Torus Solar Array Technology Demonstration (ITSAT Demo) Project. The power density goal is 90-100 W/Kg for a 200 W wing. including structure and deployment mechanisms. In Phase I, a proof of concept torus and array was const ructed and deployed in the 1 aboratory. A revi sed Phase 2 Torus and Array are now be; ng fabricated. Phase 3 will be a space flight test. The current design uses
