Estimation of Solar Panels Available Power for a LEO Satellite in Detumbling Mode Based on Monte Carlo Analysis

According to the results, body-mounted solar panels, in overall, are able to produce a very noticeable percent of their nominal power values in a detumbling mode. Total generated power of each solar panel can be about 10% up to 35% of the nominal power at BOL. Even though the results are based on an assumed mission and angular velocity profile, it can be repeated for any other profile arising from...
