Large Spacecraft Electric Propulsion Using Multiphase Generator
Abstract
A high-power high-voltage electric propulsion system for spacecrafts is proposed in this paper. For the spacecrafts with power levels below 10 kW, the conventional propulsion systems such as photovoltaic (PV) solar with battery energy storage, fuel cell, and radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) have been viable energy sources. The chemical-based propulsions can be scaled for megawatts (MW)-scale spacecraft propulsions in missions with …
