  1. 31. Intake Design, and Optimization for an Atmosphere- Breathing Electric Propulsion System

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jesus Espinosa Orozco; [2020]
    Keywords : Atmospheric Intake; ABEP; Electric Propulsion; Plasma; VLEO;

    Abstract : Over the last two decades, Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO) has gained researchers attention as it provides a significant amount of benefits in the field of earth observation and telecommunications. VLEO provides increased payload performance, improved geospatial accuracy, lower launch mass, simplified end of life disposal, and they reduce space-debris collision risk. READ MORE
