Nickel cadmium cell SD 15 K, qualification and operation of a modularized battery 50 Ah, 100 v
Abstract
Hermetically sealed nickel cadmium cells for space application are described. A modularized battery of 50 Ah capacity and 100V main bus voltage was developed. A modular unit of 1 to 12 cells is suggested. Geostationary orbit operation between minus 10 C and plus 40 C is possible by using the temperature guided constant current charging method.
