Abstract

The article deals with problem of determination of the illumination intensity of solar panels of the Russian segment of the International Space Station, which is one of the main problems of mathematical modeling of power supply of the segment. The work presents a complete solution: an approach to definition of the external surface of the ISS using geometric modeling, its position in space relative to the Earth and the Sun, the method of definition of design of solar cells and stable algorithm of determination of illuminated areas of solar cells based on ray tracing.
