Thruster Principles 25 2.4 Specific Impulse Specific impulse, termed Isp, is a measure of thrust efficiency and is defined as the ratio of the thrust to the rate of propellant consumption. Specific impulse for constant thrust and propellant flow rate is Isp= T , (2.4-1) m p g where g is the acceleration of gravity, 9.807 m/s2. For a xenon thruster, the Isp can be expressed as Isp=1.037106 T[N] =1.02105 T[N] , (2.4-2) Q[sccm] Q[mg/ s] where Eq. (2.3-2) and the flow conversions in Appendix B have been used. Using Eq. (2.3-1) for the thrust in Eq. (2.4-1), the Isp for any thruster is Isp = vex , (2.4-3) g where vex is the effective exhaust velocity. Defining the Isp in terms of the exhaust velocity relative to g is what gives rise to the unusual units of seconds for Isp. In electric thrusters, the thrust is due primarily to the ions. Using Eq. (2.3-5), the Isp is given by Isp=vi mi . (2.4-4) g m p where vi is the exhaust velocity for unidirectional, monoenergetic ion exhaust. The thruster mass utilization efficiency, which accounts for the ionized versus unionized propellant, is defined for singly charged ions as m = m i = I b M . ( 2 . 4 - 5 ) mp emp In the event that the thruster produces a significant number of multiply charged ions, the expression for the propellant utilization efficiency must be redefined.

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
