This technology is preferred when the expected duration of the mission is 2–3 years long. These batteries are known to have 30,000 LEO cycles at 20–30 % DOD and exceeding 1000 GEO cycles at 50 % DOD . In space missions, the power to weight ratio is significant as it incurs a high cost.
The primary batteries used for space applications include Ag Zn, Li-SO 2, Li-SOCl 2, Li-BC X, Li-CFx, and secondary rechargeable batteries are Ag Zn Ni Cd, Ni H 2, and Li-ion. In these battery systems, the Ag Zn battery was used in the early days of space missions such as the Russian spacecraft “Sputnik” and the US spacecraft “Ranger 3” .
The selection of any battery system for the spacecraft application mainly depends on its specific (Wh/kg) and volumetric energy density (Wh/L) at a greater DOD and also the cycle numbers and calendar life of the battery. Sealed lead-acid batteries were mostly used for small satellites and experimental satellites.
This review article comprehensively discusses the energy requirements and currently used energy storage systems for various space applications. We have explained the development of different battery technologies used in space missions, from conventional batteries (Ag Zn, Ni Cd, Ni H 2), to lithium-ion batteries and beyond.
Batteries generate electrical current from a chemical reaction. Batteries for spacecraft must be sealed to operate in a vacuum. They must withstand the acceleration of launch, and vibration while attaining orbit.
Secondary batteries can be recharged from some other energy source, such as solar panels or radioisotope-based power (RTG), and can deliver power during periods when the space vehicle is out of direct sunlight. Batteries generate electrical current from a chemical reaction. Batteries for spacecraft must be sealed to operate in a vacuum.
