Review on Solar Thermochemical Processing for Lunar Applications and Their Heat Transfer Modeling Methods
Abstract
Abstract Harnessing concentrated high-flux solar energy to drive thermal processes over 1000 °C for fuel production and material processing has great potential to address environmental issues associated with fossil fuels. There is now also interest in solar thermal processing under extraterrestrial (e.g., lunar) conditions, which has the potential to provide materials and power for future space exploration and base construction with local …
