Abstract

The invention provides a pulsed plasma thruster system comprising an ignition automatic counting device. Ignition of the pulsed plasma thruster system can be accurately counted. The pulsed plasma thruster system comprising the ignition automatic counting device comprises a pulsed plasma thruster, a ground power source system and the ignition automatic counting device, wherein the pulsed plasma thruster comprises an ignition system and a propellant, the ignition system comprises a sparking plug, a cathode, an anode and a main capacitor, the ground power source system comprises a pulse generatorand a power source, the power source is used for providing energy for the thruster, the two electrodes of the power source are connected to the cathode and the anode of the thruster correspondingly,the pulse generator is connected to the sparking plug of the thruster, the ignition automatic counting device comprises a photoelectric converting device and two double-display pulse counters, the photoelectric converting device is connected with the double-display pulse counter a, and the pulse generator in the ground power source system is connected with the other double-display pulse counter b.The pulsed plasma thruster system comprising the ignition automatic counting device can accurately record the number of discharge times of the main capacitor of the pulsed plasma thruster in real time, saves labor and reduces test errors; guarantee is provided for a long-service-life test of the pulsed plasma thruster; and meanwhile, the number of generation times of the ignition signals of the pulsed plasma thruster and the number of discharge times of the main capacitor provide basis for discharge stability analysis of the pulsed plasma thruster.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of aerospace, in particular to a pulse plasma thruster system including an ignition automatic counting device. Background technique [0002] With the development of micro-satellite technology in many civil aerospace fields, people put forward strict requirements for its propulsion system, such as light weight, low power consumption, and precise controllability. The pulsed plasma thruster has a high technical maturity and can meet the requirements of the propulsion system for micro-satellites. The pulsed plasma thruster works in a pulsed manner, and the discharge times of the main capacitor and whether the main capacitor is successfully discharged after receiving the ignition signal are important parameters for evaluating the performance of the pulsed plasma thruster. At the same time, the single ablation mass of the propellant of the pulsed plasma thruster is only a few micrograms, which is difficult to measure. The...
