Novel, High-Temperature Power-Generation for Long Duration Hypersonic Platforms
SBC: PHYSICS, MATERIALS, AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS RESEARCH L.L.C. Topic: AF15AT39ABSTRACT: The ability to convert extreme aerodynamic heating into electricity via thermoelectric generators presents a unique opportunity to leverage this otherwise undesirable condition. The harvested energy can be used to power the significant electrical demand of a hypersonic/long range vehicle while also aiding in managing high temperatures. To address this need for an high temperature thermoe ...
