Voltage-Modulated Flow Rate for Precise Thrust Control in Colloid Electrospray Propulsion

We describe a feature of electrospray operation that allows precise control of flow rate through an electrospray emitter by use of the extraction voltage. The effect of extractor voltage on the propellant flow rate through an electrospray emitter has been determined for triethylene glycol and ethyle...
