Micro-Pulsed Plasma Thrusters (PPT) are becoming increasingly attractive for their low power consumption and moderately high specific impulse from 800-1000s. The Gatling Gun micro-Pulsed Plasma Thruster (GG-PPT) is a new device offering reduced mass and higher thrust than single PPTs in precise pointing and orbit maintenance applications. The performance of PPTs depends on frequency and applied voltage/power levels. A variation of these input parameters and effects on operation and performance of this thruster system will be the focus of this research. Contamination aspects will also be consid...
