Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. The collision of neutral gas and fast ions will produce slow ions, which will be accelerated radially and flow back to the front of the thruster, causing corrosion and charge accumulation to the spacecraft
[0005] 2. Since the plume of the Hall thruster is in a plasma state, it has a shielding effect on electromagnetic waves, which may affect the communication on the spacecraft

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the monitoring technology of the product components of the Hall thruster. Background technique [0002] As satellites put forward higher requirements on life, the improvement of satellite thruster life becomes the key. Traditional satellite chemical thrusters have high thrust but small specific impulse. To improve the life of the thruster, the chemical fuel carried by the satellite must be increased, which increases the cost of satellite launch and reduces the payload. Compared with traditional chemical thrusters, electric thrusters have the advantages of small size, light weight, high specific impulse and long life, which can reduce the cost of satellite launch and meet the life requirements of satellites, and have become a research hotspot in various countries. [0003] At present, Hall thrusters and ion thrusters are the main ones. Hundreds of electric thrusters have been applied to satellites, mainly for performing...
