Abstract:The bipolar ionic liquid thruster employ ionic liquid as propellant to discharge positively and negatively charged high-energy particles under an alternating current(AC) power source, effectively suppressing electrochemical reaction and ensuring charge neutrality. Determining an optimal AC supply power source frequency is critical for sustained stable thruster operation. This study focuses on the emission characteristics of the ionic liquid thruster under varied AC conditions. The AC power supply was set withi… Show more
