摘要: Low temperature plasmas wherein an alkali metal vapor is a component are uniquely suited to simultaneously absorb solar radiation by coupling the resonance lines and produce electrical power MHD interaction. This work examination of possibility developing space systems which take advantage concentrated electricity. It shown that efficient cycles in expansion takes place at nearly constant top cycle can be devised. The density generator lower than conventional generators because relatively high seed concentration required for absorption flow velocity permitted avoid total pressure losses due heating.
