Part Request - 30 deg and half-width graphene radiator panels #16

Closed GHrynk closed 2 years ago

GHrynk commented 7 years ago

To more faithfully replicate some early (Stuhlinger) and contemporary NEP spacecraft concepts (such as HOPE and JIMO), an additional set of fixed graphene radiator panels that permit a narrower radiation shadow zone would be useful. The kludge is to rotate, offset, and overlap the current 45 deg and full-width panels, or use a somewhat less space-efficient stair-step layout. I haven't tested whether overlapping panels cause a radiative blockage effect...

Not sure why you closed this, I might actually do it :)
