| Helicon Plasma Hydrazine.Combined Micro (HPH.com) is a research project funded by the European Committee within the 7th Framework Programme of the EU and conducted by an International consortium. Objective of this research is to significantly improve knowledge on helicon-based plasma thruster through deep numerical/theoretical investigation and extensive experimental campaign, then to apply it to the design, optimization and development of a space plasma thruster. The thruster will be specifically conceived to be used on board a minisatellite for attitude and position control in order to allow low-cost demonstration-mission. Finally to further increase versatility of this system, much further with respect to standard electric thruster, a detailed feasibility study will be also conducted to evaluate the possibility of using the plasmas to heat and or decompose a secondary propellant, in order to develop a two-mode system, high-efficiency low-thrust plasma-thruster mode and a low-efficiency hightrust secondary-propellant-plasma¿enhanced mode. | |
