摘要
论述了脉冲等离子体推力器(PPT)的工作原理和研究状况。在分析其主要优缺点的基础上,讨论了PPT技术的发展方向,并就PPT的应用前景作了展望。分析认为PPT是一种先进的小推力动力装置,特别适合于微小卫星的轨道转移、姿态控制、位置保持以及星座编队飞行。
The principle and research status of pulsed plasma thruster (PPT) were put forward in this paper. The technology development trend of PPT was disscused on the basis of the analysis of advantages and disadvantages. The expectation for the technology in future was also presented. It was showed that PPT was a kind of advanced propeller with small thrust, which was suitable to orbit transfer, attitude control, station keeping and formation flying for small and micro satellite.
