Abstract

Un système de propulsion spatiale hybride chimique-électrique comprenant une module de propulsion chimique et un module de propulsion électrique. Le module de propulsion chimique comprend une électropompe configurée pour pomper un carburant et/ou un comburant dans une chambre de combustion et le module de propulsion électrique comprend un système d'alimentation électrique pour ioniser et éjecter des atomes d'une masse propulsive. L'électropompe est connectée au système d'alimentation électrique pour être alimentée en énergie électrique. L'invention est d'intérêt pour tous les acteurs actifs dans le domaine de la propulsion spatiale. Le système proposé permet d'optimiser la performance mission (durée et masse de charge utile) d'un étage orbital ou d'un étage supérieur de lanceur, cela au prix d'une complexité système limitée (grâce à la liaison entre baie propulsive chimique et électrique).A chemical-electric hybrid space propulsion system comprising a chemical propulsion module and an electric propulsion module. The chemical propulsion module includes an electric pump configured to pump fuel and / or oxidizer into a combustion chamber and the electric propulsion module includes an electric power system for ionizing and ejecting atoms from a propellant mass. The electric pump is connected to the electrical supply system to be supplied with electrical energy. The invention is of interest to all actors active in the field of space propulsion. The proposed system makes it possible to optimize the mission performance (duration and payload mass) of an orbital stage or of an upper stage of a launcher, at the cost of a limited system complexity (thanks to the connection between the chemical propulsion bay and electric).
