Under conditions of limited space for the placement of photovoltaic modules, exploitation of rooftop and facade photovoltaic power plants are highly relevant. One of their main advantages is the possibility to integrate them into both existing and new consumer infrastructures, regardless of their configuration, using the building envelope. On the example of the specific tilt angles relative to the horizon of the receiving surfaces of the modules when they are placed on the enclosing structures of the building for southern spatial orientation, analysis of the utilization level of solar energy potential of the region is carried out. The inclination angles of the enclosing structures, which are characterized by the closest electric energy generation to the generation by modules of optimal spatial orientation, are revealed. There were also determined spatial orientations of the enclosing structures, for which the installation of modules of photovoltaic power plants is not recommended.

Saturn's Rings

ABSTRACTA mission to rendezvous with the rings of Saturn is studied with regard to science rationale and instrumentation and engineering feasibility and design. Future detailedin situexploration of the rings of Saturn will require spacecraft systems with enormous propulsive capability. NASA is currently studying the critical technologies for just such a system, called Nuclear Electric Propulsion (NEP). Electric propulsion is the only technology which can effectively provide the required total impulse for this demanding mission. Furthermore, the power source must be nuclear because the solar energy reaching Saturn is only 1% of that at the Earth. An important aspect of this mission is the ability of the low thrust propulsion system to continuously boost the spacecraft above the ring plane as it spirals in toward Saturn, thus enabling scientific measurements of ring particles from only a few kilometers.
