  1. 1. Preliminary Design and Conceptual Analysis of an Electrically Actuated Pintle Injector

    Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Författare :Simone Guietti; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Pintle injector; space propulsion; space engineering;

    Sammanfattning : ”The Eagle has landed”. With this words, astronaut Neil Armstrong, together with astronaut Edwin ”Buzz” Aldrin, confirmed the safe landing on the Moon of the Apollo11 on July 20th, 1969. This achievement would have never been possible without the engineering behind the construction of the Moon lander. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Electric Propulsion (EP) is widely acknowledged as a crucial technology for future space missions, offering significant propellant savings and enabling exploration of planetary missions with smaller spacecraft (s/c). For precise attitude control of these smaller spacecraft, Field Emission Electric Propulsion (FEEP) has emerged as a favorable option due to its exceptional thrust controllability. LÄS MER
