description The DRPS Testbed is a configurable laboratory test article designed to demonstrate the latest topology of a dynamic radioisotope power system generator. It utilizes an array of Stirling convertors arranged around a centrally located heat source that is radiantly coupled to the convertor hot ends. The Testbed is designed to dissipate all the waste heat through the housing and is outfitted with means for auxiliary cooling methods as well. During the past three years, the team at NASA’s Glenn Research Center has been designing and analyzing the various aspects of the DRPS Testbed. Currently, the parts for the Testbed are being manufactured, and the team is focusing on developing the test stand, supporting hardware, and assembly and operation procedures in preparation for the anticipated first operation of the DRPS Testbed in summer of 2022.
