Ion Thruster Plasma Generators 113 Alternatively, the modified electric field given in Eq. (4.3-12) can be inserted into Eq. (4.3-10) to produce an expression for the transverse ion velocity: v2+ el 1+μ2B2–ei v–kTe=0. iμeMe eiM This quadratic equation can be easily solved to give 1e 22ei24kTe vi=2 Mμe1+μeB –e + M – e 1+μ2B2–ei. 2 M μ e e e (4.3-14) (4.3-15) The collision frequencies (e =en +ei and =en /ei ) in these equations for xenon plasmas were given in Chapter 3, where the electron-neutral collision frequency is given in Eq. (3.6-12) and the electron-ion collision frequency is given in Eq. (3.6-14). It is possible to show that in the limit that B goes to zero and the flow is essentially collisionless, Eq. (4.3-15) reverts to the Bohm velocity. Defining an ion confinement factor fc vi , (4.3-16) vBohm and since the Bohm velocity is vBohm = kTe / M , it is a simple matter to calculate the reduction in the expected flux of ions going to the anode due to the reduction in the Bohm velocity at a given magnetic field strength B. The ion current transverse to the magnetic field between the cusps to the anode is then given by Iia=1nie kTe Aasfc, (4.3-17) 2M where Aas is the total surface area of the anode exposed to the plasma. There are two issues with using Eq. (4.3-17) to evaluate ion loss rate reduction between the cusps. First, the magnetic field in the ring-cusp geometry is not transverse to the wall everywhere. Near the cusp, the field transitions from

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
