Description
Inventherm's patented meso-scale Ericsson power generation system (MEPS) will be used as the enabling technology for radioisotope generators that exceed the performance of existing Stirling power conversion systems. The system will meet or exceed the solicitation specifications including operating at efficiencies greater than 25%, with a life greater than 10 years while being compact and light weight. It is anticipated that the conversion efficiency will exceed 40% with a power density over 100 We/kg.
