406 Chapter 8 Xenon Ion System (NEXIS) ion thruster [14] calculated using this algorithm is shown in Fig. 8-9. The primary beam is assumed to be composed of a collisionless, singly ionized, quasi-neutral plasma expanding in a density- gradient electric field. The electron drift velocity is small compared to the electron thermal speeds, so momentum balance for the electrons can be written as me dve =epe =0, (8.3-30) dt where ve , , and pe are the electron velocity, electric potential, and electron pressure, respectively. Assuming an ideal gas electron pressure, the potential follows the barometric law, e n = kTe ln ne , (8.3-31) where Te is the electron temperature, ne is the plasma density ( ne = ni ), and n is a reference plasma density. The plume is also assumed to be isothermal. This is a better approximation for space conditions than for the laboratory, where inelastic collisions with background neutrals will tend to cool the electrons. In this model, ions are assumed to be very cold compared with the electrons ( pi 0 ), and their acceleration to be dominated by the electric field: 5 4 3 2 1 0 m−3 4.2 × 1015 2.5 × 1015 1.4 × 1015 8.4 × 1014 4.9 × 1014 2.9 × 1014 1.7 × 1014 9.9 × 1013 6.8 × 1013 3.4 × 1013 2.0 × 1013 5 20-kW Ion Thruster −5 −4 −3 −2 −1 r (m) 1 2 3 4 Fig. 8-9.

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
