ABSTRACT
About Electric Propulsion Satellite
Electric-powered satellite propulsion system employs electrical energy to change the velocity of spacecraft. Most all-electric satellite propulsion systems work by electrically expelling propellant or reaction mass at high speed. The hybrid propulsion systems engage both chemical and electrical propulsion technologies. Conventional electric thrusters use less propellant than chemically powered propulsion systems as these have higher exhaust speeds, which operate at a higher specific impulse. However, the thrust generated by electric propulsion remains much weaker compared with its counterparts. Nevertheless, electric propulsion technology can ensure a small thrust for a longer period of time, which makes such technologies ideal for deep space exploration. Also, over a period of operation, such propulsion systems can feature high speed and thereby, ensure effective performance.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global electric propulsion satellite market to grow at a CAGR of 13.95% during the period 2017-2021.
