متن کاملFree Molecule Micro-resistojet: Nanosatellite Propulsion
Constellations and platoons of small satellites can offer an assortment of benefits over larger, single function spacecraft. The strict mass, volume, and power limitations of small satellites will require unique micro-technologies to help develop efficient propulsion systems for maneuvering. The Free Molecule Micro-Resistojet (FMMR) has been analyzed and tested in this study to determine its ap...
متن کاملDecomposition of Ionic Liquid Ferrofluids for Multi-Mode Spacecraft Propulsion
Ionic liquid ferrofluids based on mixtures of [Emim][EtSO4] and [Bmim][NO3] fuels and hydroxylamonium nitrate oxidizer were synthesized by adding iron oxide nanoparticles. The resulting propellants were then tested for decomposition capability. Spot plate testing indicated that the temperature required to initiate rapid decomposition dropped from 115 o C to 75 o C with a 30% by weight addition ...
متن کاملElectrohydrodynamic thrust density using positive corona-induced ionic winds for in-atmosphere propulsion
Previous work has characterized electrohydrodynamic (EHD) thruster performance, determining that thrust-to-power ratios are comparable with that of conventional propulsion at the laboratory scale. Achievable thrust density of EHD propulsion has yet to be experimentally quantified and could be a limiting factor in its application. In this paper, we quantify the achievable thrust density for a wi...
متن کاملPerformance testing of a microfabricated propulsion system for nanosatellite applications
There is a growing interest in the use of micro and nanosatellites within the aerospace community. Constellations of small satellites may eventually replace much larger, single function spacecraft as a cheaper, more flexible alternative. Micro-technologies will be required to enable small satellite missions including efficient, low-cost propulsion systems for maneuvering. A MEMS fabricated prop...
