Flywheel Energy Storage as an Alternative for Chemical Batteries in Small LEO Satellites: Feasibility and Attitude Impact
Given the accelerating increase in the number of satellites, mainly driven by the deployment of large constellations, manufacturers are under growing pressure to innovate in order to reduce both costs and environmental impact. In this context, the present work investigates the feasibility of replacing chemical batteries on Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites with mechanical storage…
