Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pulsed plasma thruster (PPT) benefits from the inherent engineering simplicity-and reduced tankage fraction gained by storing the propellant as a solid. The solid is converted to the gaseous state and accelerated by an electric discharge across the propellant face. Previous research has concluded that as little as 10% of the consumed propellant is converted to plasma and efficiently accelerated. The remaining propellant is consumed in the form of late-time vaporization and particulate emission, creating minimal thrust. Critical to improving the PPT performance is improving the propellant utilization. The present work demonstrates one possible method of increasing the PPT propellant efficiency. By measuring the PPT thrust, propellant consumption, and propellant temperature while varying the power level, duration of the experimental run, and total propellant mass, a correlation is established between decreased propropellant temperature and increased propellant efficiency. The method is demonstrated by performance measurements at 60 W and S W, which show a 25% increase in thrust efficiency, while the propellant temperature decreases from 135 to 42 deg C. Larger increases in the efficiency may be realized on-orbit where operating temperatures are commonly subzero. The dependence of propellant consumption on temperature also creates systematic errors in laboratory measurements with short experimental runs, and orbit analyses where the PPT performance measured at one power level is linearly scaled to the power available on the spacecraft.

Download or read book Investigation of Propellant Inefficiencies in a Pulsed Plasma Thruster written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Pulsed Plasma Thruster (PPT) benefits from the inherent engineering simplicity and reduced tankage fraction gained by storing the propellant as a solid. The solid is converted to the gaseous state during an electric surface discharge. Previous research has concluded that the bulk of the propellant expands gas-dynamically from the chamber at low directed velocity, with possibly as little as 10% ionized and efficiently accelerated to high velocity using electromagnetic forces. The two velocity components result in a low propellant utilization efficiency. Critical to improving the PPT efficiency is preventing the formation of the low-velocity propellant and/or developing a means of accelerating it electromagnetically. In the present work measurements are made of the solid propellant conversion to the gaseous state with the intent of better understanding the formation process. By better understanding the propellant conversion it is hoped that future PPTs can be designed with significantly increased propellant efficiencies.
