摘要: Various embodiments of a vortex thruster system is described herein that are configured to create at least three discrete thrust levels. In some embodiments, the vortex thruster system includes a catalyst bed configured to decompose a monopropellant at more than one flow rate and deliver the decomposed monopropellant into a vortex combustion chamber for generating various thrust levels. In some embodiments, the catalyst bed includes a screen assembly positioned within the inner chamber of the catalyst bed. The screen assembly can include alternating reactive screens and inert screens. The reactive screens can include a catalytic coating for assisting with decomposing the monopropellant, and the inert screens can provide structural support for the screen assembly. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.

摘要: Propulsion systems that generate thrust from pressure generated by thermally decomposing a chemical blowing agent (CBA). In some embodiments, the CBA decomposes exothermically such that once thermal decomposition has been initiated, the thermal decomposition continues without additional energy input. In some embodiments, the CBA is utilized in a digital-microthruster array containing microthrusters that can be individually activated to provide thrust. In some embodiments, a CBA may be stored in one or more CBA-storage chambers that can be individually activated to charge and/or recharge a pressure tank that stores gas from the CBA decomposition under pressure for providing thrust. These and other embodiments are disclosed. Such propulsion systems can be used for any of a variety of spacecraft, including micro- and nano-satellites. Corresponding methods of generating thrust are also disclosed.

摘要: This description presents the design of propellant valve-injector of a spacecraft thruster with a heat (thermal) control system. The valve-injector consists of: the actuator for moving the valve in order to open and close the orifice of the propellant to the decomposition chamber; the needle closing/opening the said orifice; the housing integrating all parts of the valve-injector, and having the O-shaped sealing ring, elements performing the protective filter and other functions; the heat control system consisting of the heat sink element and the thermal barrier to ensure the proper temperature of the propellant supply system and the propellant contained therein, and the protection against overheating. The essence of the invention - technical solution eliminating the passage volume (pipeline) between the propellant supply control valve and the decomposition chamber, ensures the precision supply of propellant to the decomposition chamber at the uniform pressure (during the entire pulse). This increases the thruster controllability, as well as more efficient propellant use. The injector is easily integrated with spacecraft thruster.
