To the question of creating a stationary plasma engine of increased power
The new concept of powerful electric thrusters for spacecraft are aimed at creation of power plants for transportation of satellites with a large mass support manned space programs, space transportation and missions to study outer space. As the main engine for such systems, the choice of stationary plasma ...
Hall effect thrusters for small-sized spacecrafts
The results of investigation tests and comparative analysis of various low-power Electric Propulsion (EP) designed for their application as a part of electric propulsion systems (EPS) for small-sized spacecrafts are presented. Based on the analysis of main parameters and characteristics, the most prospective scheme of the EP design has been selected.
