Modified Electromechanical Modeling and Parameters Analysis of Magnetoplasmadynamic Thruster

To predict the thrust of magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters (MPDTs), a modified electromechanical model was proposed and a comparison with experimental results is presented in this paper. The motion of propellant in the thruster was divided into two portions: the axial motion which was accelerated by th...
