Abstract

The invention provides a capillary transport simulation propellant use efficiency measuring device and method. The capillary transport simulation propellant use efficiency measuring device comprises a weighing balance (207), an electronic injection thruster propellant storage tank (206), a propellant absorber (204), a propellant collecting plate (203) and a support (205). One end of the propellant absorber (204) extends into the electronic injection thruster propellant storage box (206), and the other end of the propellant absorber (204) is connected to the propellant collecting plate (203). According to the method, the use efficiency of the propellant is calculated according to the mass difference measured before and after the propellant is transported, a clear scheme is provided for measurement of the use efficiency of the passive liquid supply propellant of the electronic injection thruster, the supply rate of the propellant can be increased, then the use efficiency of the propellant is measured, and the measurement time is greatly shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electric propulsion, in particular, to a device and method for measuring propellant utilization rate for simulating capillary transport. Background technique [0002] The EFI thruster is a new type of electric thruster using ionic liquid as the propellant. Generally, it adopts the passive liquid supply type propellant supply mode. Usually, the spongy absorber with a certain porosity is used as the transport medium and connected to the storage tank. and the projectile for propellant transport, the propellant supply method is as follows figure 1 shown. Under the action of Laplace pressure, the propellant overcomes the resistance of the absorber to its flow and is transported into the emitter. In actual work, due to the limit of capillary transport, the propellant in the storage tank cannot be transported to the projectile 100% during the transportation process, and the propellant injected into the storage tank cann...
