Multiphysics Numerical Simulation and Geometric Optimization of a Micronozzle for the MEMS Thruster

This paper reports a numerical research on MEMS (microelectromechanical system) micronozzles through multiphysics coupling simulation along with design optimization based on simulation results. The micronozzle, which is a core component of the electrothermal microthruster, features a micron-scale ge...
