Abstract

Building an efficient and stable power supply system for spacecraft is one of the key factors for space exploration. Generally, this technical report analyses the mechanism and performance of radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs) as power supplies in the application of spacecraft. In addition, a feasible suggestion to improve the efficiency of RTG is illustrated in the end.
