Abstract
A computer model which simulates the operation of Texas Instruments solar‐chemical convertor (SCC) was developed. The model allows optimization of SCC processes, material, and configuration by facilitating decisions on trade‐offs among ease of manufacturing, power conversion efficiency, and cost effectiveness. The model includes various algorithms which define the electrical, electrochemical, and resistance parameters and which describe the operation of the discrete components of the SCC. Results of the model which depict the effect of material and geometric changes on various parameters are presented. The computer‐calculated operation is compared with experimentally observed hydrobromic acid electrolysis rates.
