SPACE NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

摘要

FIELD: power engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: in a nuclear power plant a refrigerator-radiator is equipped with additional four panels arranged outside and made as sectors of cylindrical shape, every of which is connected to a rigid part of the refrigerator-radiator via a hinged joint installed at its end. Axes of hinged joints are arranged at the angle of 90 and provide for simultaneous rotation of sectors in four mutually perpendicular planes. Hinged joints are equipped with electric drives for rotation of cylindrical sectors and hinged-bellows units for transfer of coolant at them from the rigid part of the refrigerator-radiator. The refrigerator-radiator is equipped with guides, along which a spacecraft payload may move forward from under the refrigerator-radiator and turned additional cylindrical sectors of the refrigerator-radiator. ^ EFFECT: compact placement of a nuclear power plant in start position with a refrigerator-radiator and a compartment of a spacecraft payload. ^ 3 cl, 2 dwg
