, Presented at the Asian Joint Conference on Propulsion and Power 2025,
This study presents a magnetohydrodynamic model to analyze the operation of Hall thrusters under high-density plasma conditions induced by increased mass flow rates.
, 33rd International Symposium on Rarefied Gas Dynamics (RGD), 2024,
This work presents DSMC simulations using PICLas to evaluate the performance of a specular intake for an Atmosphere-Breathing Electric Propulsion system.
, 38th International Electric Propulsion Conference (IEPC), 2024,
This study investigates how solar activity affects the performance of a specular intake for ABEP in VLEO, using DSMC simulations to assess efficiency, pressure, and the validity of the hyperthermal assumption.
