Study on Performance Enhancement of an Electrothermal Pulsed Plasma Thruster

We designed a pulsed plasma thruster (PPT) with a propellant feeding mechanism using two poly-tetra-fluoroethylene (PTFE) bars as propellants. Both the PPT and capacitors were mounted on a thrust stand with a 1-m-long arm developed for precise measurement of impulse bit. The initial thrust performan...
