Preliminary Pulsed MPD Thruster Performance
A thrust stand was modified, and a primary calibration technique was developed to evaluate the performance of applied-field pulsed magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters (MPDTs) for 10 kW class solar electric orbit transfer vehicle (SEOTV) missions. The NASA Lewis Research Center (LeRC) 30 kW thrust stand was modified to accept high current pulses delivered to the MPDT. A pendulum system was developed ...
متن کاملElectric Thruster Plume Simulation: Application to Mpd and Feep Thrusters
This paper describes the physical and numerical models of the two new codes which are under developing phase at Alta. 2d3vPICFES is bi-dimensional axial-symmetric numerical code able to compute plasma flow in a MPD thrusters with applied magnetic field, while 3dBEMPIC is a three dimensional numerical code able to compute the ion plume of FEEP thrusters. 2d3vPICFES uses a Particle-In-Cell techni...
متن کاملEfficient Implicit Time-Marching Methods Using a Newton-Krylov Algorithm
The numerical behavior of two implicit time-marching methods is investigated in solving two-dimensional unsteady compressible flows. The two methods are the second-order multistep backward differencing formula and the fourth-order multistage explicit first stage, single-diagonal coefficient, diagonally implicit Runge-Kutta scheme. A Newton-Krylov method is used to solve the nonlinear problem ar...
متن کاملAIAA 94–0056 Fully-Implicit Time-Marching Aeroelastic Solutions
A new fully-implicit approach for computing transonic aeroelastic solutions is presented. The unsteady Euler equations are coupled with a typical section swept wing model and integrated forward in time. The implicit Euler equations are integrated in pseudo-time using multigrid methods, and are coupled with a first-order system decomposition of the structural modal equations. Full convergence of...
متن کاملPartially Implicit BDF2 Blends for Convection Dominated Flows
In this paper we consider various blends of implicit and explicit time integration schemes based on the well-known BDF2 method, applied to convection-diffusion problems with dominating convection. A fully implicit treatment of convection terms is often not very efficient. We shall deal with schemes that are implicit in the convection terms only locally in space, without introducing the internal...
