A power generation system may be used to cool a heat dissipation device based on immersion in a refrigerant such that bubbles are generated at a heat dissipation device surface of the heat dissipation device in the refrigerant. The power generation system includes a turbine, a connector, and a converter. The turbine includes a turbine shaft and turbine blades connected thereto. The connector connects the turbine and the heat dissipation device to position the turbine shaft to extend parallel to gravity and position the turbine in the refrigerant above at least a portion of the heat dissipation device surface in a vertical direction, to configure the turbine to rotate based on an action of rising pressure exerted by the bubbles rising from the heat dissipation device surface to impinge on the turbine blades. The converter is configured to convert kinetic energy of the turbine into electrical energy.

Extendable conductor for thermal management

A conductor of the extendable conductor assembly may be extended (e.g., into a thermal target, such as a preexisting or a newly created feature of a planetary body) and used to thermally couple a rover, vehicle, fixed installation, or other hardware with the thermal target. Thus, the temperature of the hardware may be managed via heat transfer to/from the thermal target. For instance, heat may be transferred from the thermal target to maintain the temperature of the hardware under cold conditions, while excess heat may be transferred to the thermal target under hot conditions. A rover forms a borehole in the lunar surface, in which a conductor is extended to facilitate heat transfer between the rover and the Moon accordingly.
