摘要
重点分析讨论了微波等离子推进器(MPT)的基本原理、结构特征和应用前景,并通过对已有理论与实验研究结果的分析,认为MPT是一种高比冲、长寿命的小推力动力装置,特别适合用作空间动力,进行航天器的轨道转移、姿态控制、位置保持、对接交会和星际航行。尽管MPT目前仍处于理论探索与实验研究阶段,但研究结果表明,它是前景十分诱人的新型空间动力系统。
The primary principle configuration features and utility prospect of a new space propulsion system——microwave plasma thruster(MPT) were analysised and discussedAccording to the theoretical and experimental results achieved up to date,the conclusions can be drawn that MPT is a kind of advanced thruster with high specific impulse,long lifetime and low thrust,and especially fits for space propulsion such as orbit transfer,attitude cotrol,stationkeeping,docking and rendezious,and planetary missionsAlthough MPT is still at the theoretical and experimental exploratory research stage,it is very likely to be a new promising space propulsion system
