大規模宇宙太陽光発電所の構造
コンパクトにすることができる宇宙構造物
図12aから12dは、スリップラッピング技術の実施形態の構築の断面図を示す。図に示すように、これらの実施形態において、第1の端部304で相互接続され、第2の端部306で相互接続されていない2つの細長い要素300と302(図12a)が、ハブの回りにラッピングしている(図12b)。そのようなラッピングは、その要素の相互接続されていない端部間で間隙308を形成するように、細長い要素の内の1つ300が、第2の細長い要素302に対して、その長手方向の長さに沿ってスリップすることを引き起こす。1つの端部314で相互接続された2つの細長い要素310と312の第2のセットが、次いで、細長い要素の第1のセットの180°回転により得られ、次に、相互接続されていない端部が結合316されて、両端304と314で相互接続された波状の構成318の単一の細長い要素が形成される(図12c)。このように形成される波状のストリップは、次いで、細長い要素の材料の最小曲げ半径より小さくない特定の半径320のハブの回りにラッピングすることができ、それにより、X軸及びY軸の2軸で衛星モジュールの寸法を低減する(図12d)。
効率的発電タイルの構成
もちろん、光起電力材料は、本発明の実施形態により、任意の適切な方法で、接合することができることは明らかとすべきである。例えば、多くの実施形態において、光起電力材料は並列に接続される。
