In space, waste heat from closed-cycle power generation units must be rejected by radiators; for power plants of few kilowatts, radiators are incorporated into vehicle design; for power levels on order of hundreds of kilowatts, it is necessary that radiator be separate structure; concept of radiation amplifier, which also exploits thermal capacity principle of heat transport; it consists of disk which is cyclically cooled and heated by radiation as it rotates between 2 sector shaped radiators that occult from space portions of disk surfaces.
