While most studies on space power systems target electricity generation as the energy product, industrialized nations also have a need for chemicals to support transportation and other purposes. This paper therefore describes an alternative target for the application of space power systems: the production of chemical fuels based on radiant energy beamed or reflected from orbiting platforms. If cost...
One possible route to the development of compact fuel processing technology is through the application of microchannel technology. Also called micro chemical and thermal systems (micro-cats), microchannel technology is hardware that incorporates engineered microchannels that provide more rapid heat and mass transport, and therefore faster processing rates, than can be realised within systems employing...
