Stored energy
Electric power
Power source
Heat
Rate at which stored energy can be used
1 kWh per day on a rover or 6 kWh per day on a lander
1.5 kV per day on a rover or 9 kV per day on a lander
Self discharge rate
The rover has a self-discharge rate of 50W off, 100W stopped on, 500W if collecting data but stopped, and 1000W moving. The landing module has a self-discharge rate of 1000W without being used and 6000W in all its functions.
Volume
0.5 m3 the rover and 3 m3 the lander
Mass
150kg the rover and 1000kg the lander
Temperature range
From -200 C° to 900 C°
Input energy usage and atmospheric descent
It does not use the energy released at the entrance and the atmospheric drop, since it is made to work on the surface.
Use of active materials (eg, in the case of a battery, the anod, the cathode, the separator, the electrolytic materials)
It uses a solenoid separator, a Zirconium YSZ electrolyte, a NiO-YSZ anode, and a Yttrium YSCF cathode.
If a protective enclosure is required
Yes, to protect itself from pressure, being protected by a layer of osmium and thermosetting polyurethane in the shape of a sphere
Whether the system can be operated in any orientation
Yes, since the battery is spherical, so the material is evenly distributed
if the system uses in situ resources from Venus (eg CO2)
Yes, it uses the HEAT present at surface level to convert it into electricity
Whether the system can be recharged
The system is specially made to automatically recharge when power is needed, as the power switch restricts the flow of electricity when the system is storing maximum, or opens it when power is needed, as the silicon plates generate the power needed for a proper functioning
Whether the system can tolerate the forces and vibrations due to launch, re-entry, descent, and landing.
The system is made to resist pressure, temperature and atmospheric components, so its internal and external components resist the forces generated by the descent to the planet.
If the system can tolerate partial failures and still provide power
The system is made to tolerate extreme conditions, but if the system fails, the electrical current switches automatically stop the flow if there is a short circuit or overheating, but if they fail, there are osmium-protected switches on the battery inputs and outputs. , with the function of closing the flow to protect the battery from collateral damage
If the system needs to be protected from the outside
Only the antioxidant or stainless steel layer has to be in contact with the outside, so the other layers have to be protected to work properly, so the system adapts to the spherical modules since they protect it in a good way of pressure, but it also works with other modules, since it has elements with high density and melting point
