FIELD: electric engineering, possible use during operation of nickel-hydrogen accumulator batteries primarily in autonomous electric power systems of geostationary Earth satellites.
SUBSTANCE: method for exploitation of hermetic nickel-hydrogen accumulator battery in autonomous electric power system of Earth satellite is realized by performing charge-discharge cycles, and disabling battery charge on fall of hydrogen pressure in accumulators down to controlled lower level.
EFFECT: increased reliability of method for operation of nickel-hydrogen accumulator battery with preservation of efficiency of its usage, which is achieved due to disabling of charge after receipt, from controlled lower level of accumulators charge, of capacity of predetermined value, with limiting of maximal allowed temperature of accumulators, while value of capacity is corrected during exploitation of accumulator battery based on level of accumulators temperature reached at the end of charge.
