Definitions
- Ion beam concentrating device for plasma thruster and plasma thruster equipped with such a device
- the present invention relates to plasma electro-ionic motors applied in particular to space propulsion, but also to industrial processes on the ground, and more particularly plasma thrusters of the closed electron drift type also called propellants. stationary plasma (SPT), Hall thrusters or anodic layer thrusters (ALT).
- SPT stationary plasma
- ALT anodic layer thrusters
- An annular channel 1 defined by a piece 2 of insulating material is placed in an electromagnet comprising external annular pole pieces 3 and internal 4 placed respectively outside and inside the piece 2 of insulating material, a cylinder head magnetic 12 arranged upstream of the motor and the electromagnet coils 11 which extend over the entire length of the channel 1 and are mounted in series around magnetic cores 10 connecting the external pole piece 3 to the cylinder head 12.
- a hollow cathode 7, connected to ground, is coupled to a device 17 for supplying xenon to form a plasma cloud in front of the downstream outlet of the channel 1.
- An annular anode 5 connected to the positive pole of a power source electric for example 300 volts is disposed in the closed upstream part of the annular channel 1.
- a xenon injection tube 6, cooperating with a thermal and electrical insulator 8 opens into an annular distribution channel 9 disposed immediately in the vicinity of the annular anode 5.
- the ionization and neutralization electrons come from the hollow cathode 7.
- the ionization electrons are drawn into the insulating annular channel 1 by the electric field prevailing between the anode 5 and the plasma cloud coming from the cathode 7.
- the ionization electrons take a drift trajectory in azimuth necessary to maintain the electric field in the channel.
- the ionization electrons then drift along closed paths inside the insulating channel, hence the name of the propellant.
- the magnetic field is defined by the shape of the parts 3, 4.
- the lines 13 of the magnetic field are essentially radial in the outlet plane 14 of the propellant.
- the closed electron drift propellants thus involve ion accelerations in a plasma.
- the ions are not monoenergetic.
- the ion beam has two components:
- FIGS. 8a and 8b show the distribution of the ion current of the ion beam as a function of the energy for an ion propellant operating at a discharge voltage V ac of 300 V.
- FIG. 8a has six curves corresponding to angles respectively of 0 °, 7 ° 30 ', 15 °, 22 ° 30', 30 ° and 37 ° 30 'relative to the axis of the propellant.
- the ion current has a peak corresponding to 270 eV, the amplitude of which decreases sharply when the value of the angle relative to the axis of the propellant increases. This main peak is due to primary ions. Secondary ions produced at the propellant exit plane also form a secondary peak corresponding to an energy from 20 to 30 eV. The amplitude of the secondary peak is practically independent of the value of the angle of divergence relative to the axis of the propellant.
- Figure 8b shows with an enlarged scale, five curves corresponding to angles of 37 ° 30 ', 45 °, 52 ° 30', 60 ° and 67 ° 30 'respectively. It can be observed that the density of the high energy ions decreases very strongly for the high values of the angle of divergence relative to the axis of the device. However, there remains still for a divergence angle 67 ° 30 'a non-negligible percentage of ions having an energy greater than 100 eV. These ions are capable of causing damage by their projection.
- Figure 9 shows the angular distribution of low energy and high energy ions and gives an overall representation of the beam profile.
- the curve in solid lines 31 gives the value of the ion current measured in a collector at 30 V as a function of the angle of divergence relative to the axis of the propellant and the curve in broken lines 32 gives the value of the current d ion measured in a collector at 50 V also as a function of the angle of divergence with respect to the axis of the propellant.
- FIG. 7 shows a part of a conventional closed electron drift propellant of the kind described with reference to FIG. 6.
- This FIG. 7 shows arrows 52 giving the orientation of the ion velocity vectors, as well as a dotted curve 51 representing the density distribution of the ions, just at the exit of the acceleration channel 1.
- the magnetic field lines 113 at the exit of the acceleration channel 1 created by the pole pieces 3, 4 and the coils 11, 15 are also shown superimposed on the representation of the distribution of the ions.
- the trajectories of the ions are perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. It follows that the trajectories 54, 56 of the ions at points 53, 55 located on the periphery of the acceleration channel 1 downstream of the outlet plane 14 are practically perpendicular to the axis Z of the propellant.
- the trajectory of the ions of the low energy and strongly divergent component of the ion beam which is governed by the magnetic field lines corresponding to equipotentials, can have an effect. very damaging on the surface of the spacecraft on which the propellant is mounted.
- the invention aims to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks and to allow the production of an ion beam output from the propellant having a well defined contour and an ion density whose distribution is optimized to avoid attacks due to low energy ions located at the periphery of the beam.
