Rarefied Background Flow in a Vacuum Chamber
Spacecraft propulsion systems, such as Hall thrusters, are designed and tested in large vacuum chambers. The pumping capacity of modern facilities makes it possible to maintain pressures as low as 3 10 4 10 Pa. In this study, several free molecular models are developed to analyze the background flow inside a vacuum chamber. These models lead to various sets of analytical results including veloc...
متن کاملSimulation of the Interaction Between Two Counterflowing Rarefied Jets
A preliminary analysis of the flow between a jet of argon plasma and one containing argon excited states is conducted using the direct simulation Monte Carlo method (DSMC). As a prelude to the use of more advanced models and to help design the accompanying experiment, a simplified model is formulated that ignores electron kinetics and field effects. This model allows the capture of most of the ...
متن کاملRarefied gas dynamics and its applications to vacuum technology
Basic concepts of rarefied gas dynamics are given in a concise form. Some problems of rarefied gas flows are considered, namely, calculations of velocity slip and temperature jump coefficients, gas flow through a tube due to pressure and temperature gradients, and gas flow through a thin orifice. Results on the two last problems are given over the whole range of gas rarefaction. A methodology f...
متن کاملPlume Interactions of Multiple Jets Expanding into Vacuum: Experimental and Numerical Investigation
The main objective of this work is to examine the impac.1 of jet interactions in arrays of micropropulsion devices on thrust performance. Rarefied flow of nitrogen and helium from a single orifice and orifice arrays into vacuum was studied experimentally and numerically. The chamber pressure was changed in the range from 10 milli-torr to 40 torr, the orifice diameter was 1 mm, and the center-to...
متن کاملSimulations and Measurements of Gas-Droplet Flows in Supersonic Jets Expanding into Vacuum
Simulations and measurements of gas-droplet multiphase flows in application to supersonic expansions into vacuum have been considered and compared with each other. The experiments involved exposing a control surface to a supersonic plume from two different nozzles and measuring the size distribution of droplets at various locations. The simulations are based on the direct simulation Monte Carlo...
