Computational Investigations of Performance Improvements for Microlaser Ablation Plasma Thrusters Using Nozzles
Recent work has investigated the microlaser ablation plasma thruster, which is a subkilogram form of satellite propulsion. Computational simulations that investigate the microthruster operation by the ablation of plasma through a nozzle using a magnetohydrodynamic code are presented. The performance...
