Abstract

The mechanism of continuous discharge in micro ablative pulsed plasma thrusters has always been ignored. A series of experiments on discharge completion rate were conducted, and theoretical analyses were performed to understand the results. These results showed that as initial voltage decreased to a certain value, a portion of energy was not released in a short time, which caused overall efficiency to greatly decrease. As the initial voltage decreased sequentially, this phenomenon occurred more frequently. This study provides a reference for high-frequency micro ablative pulsed plasma thrusters.
