Abstract
The design and analysis of satellite electrical power subsystem is an important driver for the mass, size, and capability of the satellite. In particular, satellite energy balance analysis is critical in determining the capabilities and limitations of the power subsystem and the success of satellite operations. This paper introduces a new energy balance analysis program for LEO satellite development and shows an example of test results using other LEO satellite design data. The test results show that the proposed energy balance program can be used the optimal sizing of satellite electrical power subsystem and the analytical prediction of the on-orbit energy balance during satellite mission operations.
