This chapter provides an overview of various power sources used on satellites and the high-level physical principles they are based on. The same is done with the design elements related to maintaining proper temperature conditions in which a satellite’s electrical components can function. Several approaches to operational tasks are given in the second and third section, including the handling of batteries.
