SPACECRAFT ELECTRIC GENERAT(NG AND PROPULSION SYSTEM INTEGRATION STUDY. PART II. LEADER USER'S MANUAL.

Abstract

This report contains a description of the analytical techniques and of the computer programming effort required to develop an analytical model of a spacecraft electric generating and propulsion system and to incorporate the model into the General Electric LEADER (Logical Evaluation and Direction of Engineering and Research) system optimization program. It has been structured to serve as a manual for potential users of the LEADER technique in order to facilitate their usage of the technique. Examples from the results of the Spacecraft Electric Generating and Propulsion System Integration Study have been used to help demonstrate the various aspects of the LEADER technique. (Autfor)
