Hirosaki Bunka Center), Hirosaki, Aomori, Japan, For a steady-state self-field magnetiplasmadynamic (MPD) thruster (ZT3 thruster, which was investigated experimentally at the Institute of Space System of the University of Stuttgart), a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of a plasma flow is conducted under consideration for electrode phenomena by incorporating a theoretical cathode sheath/presheath model into an MHD fluid model as a boundary condition. The influence of the incorporation of the cathode sheath/presheath model on numerical performance prediction is discussed for the operation in a propellant (argon) flow rate of 2.0 g/s and a discharge current of 10 kA. By incorporating the cathode sheath/presheath model, the predicted discharge voltage (21.0 V) agreed well with the experimental result (ca. 20 V). Estimated averagevoltage drop within the cathode sheath/presheath accounts for 31% of the discharge voltage. It was therefore confirmed by numerical simulation that the existence of the cathode sheath significantly affects the operation of the MPD thruster., 形態: カラー図版あり, Physical characteristics: Original contains color illustrations, 資料番号: AA1530023032, レポート番号: JAXA-SP-14-010}, pages = {179--184}, publisher = {宇宙航空研究開発機構(JAXA), Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)}, title = {電極現象を考慮した電磁流体シミュレーションによるMPDスラスタの性能予測}, volume = {JAXA-SP-14-010}, year = {2015} }
