Imvelaphi yamaseli elanga-kusuka kubuchwepheshe be-aerospace ukuya ezindlini zabantu abavamile

Muva nje, osomkhathi ababili be-NASA u-Kate Rubins no-Victor Glover Jr., Bahambe ngaphandle kwe-International Space Station cishe amahora angu-7, futhi baqedela ukushintshwa kwamaphaneli elanga.

Kubikwa ukuthi ibhethri elisetshenziswa njengamanje ku-International Space Station lafakwa ngoDisemba 2000 futhi linempilo yesevisi yokuklama iminyaka engu-15.Sekuyisikhathi sokushintshwa, kodwa alizange lishintshwe kuze kube kamuva nje.Ngemva kwalokhu kushintshwa, amandla aphelele e-solar station yesiteshi sasemkhathini azokwengezwa ukusuka ku-160 kilowatts kuya ku-215 kilowatts.

Njengokugxila kwamanje ekuthuthukisweni kwamandla avuselelekayo, amaseli elanga empeleni awubuchwepheshe bakhelwe i-aerospace.Ngemva kokuba umkhumbi-mkhathi usungene emkhathini, usadinga amandla ukuze usebenze isikhathi eside, kodwa awukho umoya-mpilo emkhathini, ngakho amandla avamile ezinsalela azikho usizo, ngakho amandla avuselelekayo kufanele asetshenziswe.

Kumandla avuselelekayo, amandla omoya namandla aphehlwa ngamanzi awanazo izimfuneko.Kunokukhanya kwelanga kuphela emkhathini, ngakho kwaba khona amabhethri akwazi ukukhiqiza ugesi ngamandla elanga.Baye baba omunye wemithombo yamandla yamasathelayithi neziteshi zasemkhathini, futhi banegalelo elikhulu embonini ye-aerospace.

Ngemva kwamashumi eminyaka okuthuthukiswa, i-photovoltaics isuke kubuchwepheshe be-aerospace obungenakufinyeleleka kuya emisha eqhubekayo yobuchwepheshe, iqala ngezinto ze-silicon ezikhuphukayo, ama-backplanes aphakathi nendawo kanye nengilazi ye-photovoltaic, ama-inverters aphansi kanye nabakaki, njll. Yehlisa ngokuphawulekayo izindleko, ngena ezindlini zabantu abavamile, futhiabe amandla abalulekile amandla avuselelekayo.
