Description:
Progress on an isotope-fueled auxiliary power unit is reported. Based on the power requirements of 260 W, it was concluded that Ce/sup 144/ should be used as fuel. Estimates were made of fuel availability and unit cost and weight at power levels of 133, 300, 500, and 1000 W(e). Fuel development, boiler development, system and operational considerations, and the power conservation system are discussed. (M.C.G.)
