Outline of Final Research Achievements

In micro/nano satellite R&D Projects, for example in the Project of Osaka Institute of Technology Electric-Rocket-Engine onboard Small Space Ship (PROITERES), the 2nd PROITERES nano-satellite with electric thrusters for powered flight has been developed. The main mission of the 2nd PROITERES is to change long-distance orbital altitude with electrothermal Pulsed Plasma Thrusters (PPTs). The PPT was developed by increasing electric power and designing Multi-Discharge-Room type PPT (MDR-PPT). The performance of the new high-power PPT is the maximum impulse bit of 2,415 μNs with a charging energy of 31.59 J. Furthermore, the PPT achieved successful operation of 100,000 shots using Power Processing Unit (PPU) engineering model.
