It can meet the requirements of diverse space propulsion missions and expand the field of application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an array type electrothermal plasma accelerator, which belongs to the technical field of space electric propulsion. Background technique [0002] With the vigorous development of commercial spaceflight, the field of micro-spacecraft is constantly undergoing technological innovation and progress. In order to improve its on-orbit life, there is an increasing demand for micro propulsion systems for micro spacecraft. [0003] The electrothermal plasma accelerator has the characteristics of small system size, low cost, and high specific impulse at low power. It is one of the most potential micro-spacecraft on-orbit propulsion systems and has great development prospects. The pulse electrothermal acceleration device uses solid propellant, and the system does not contain a propellant storage tank, which greatly simplifies the structure of the propulsion system and improves the reliability of the system. [0004] In the face of increa...
