محرك قوس الفراغ Vacuum arc thruster
(تم التحويل من Vacuum arc thruster)
محرك قوس الفراغ (vacuum arc thruster ؛ VAT) هو صيغة من electric spacecraft propulsion. It uses a vacuum arc discharge, across an insulator, between two electrodes to produce thrust.[1] A metal plasma is produced from micrometer-size cathodic spots. Thus, whereas the insulator is used as propellant in a pulsed plasma thruster, in a VAT the metallic cathode is consumed as propellant.
