Which maneuvers
are mandatory?
UNCLASSIFIED
 Cold gas propulsion system uses the pre-stored energy of a
compressed gas to develop thrust.
 Simple and safe
 Due to the low thrust and Isp values, they are widely used;
 in low mass satellites (Proba-2, Slosh-Sat, BilSAT-1)
 for attitude control and minor orbital maneuvers

Monopropellant systems;
 Thrust is generated by decomposition of the pressurized propellant
passing through a catalyst.
 Used especially for the Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellites to achieve:
 Orbit insertion
 Orbit maintanence
 Attitude control
 Deorbiting
 There are many achieved missions such as Göktürk-2, Göktürk-1,
Pleiades, GeoEye, Terrasar-X…

 Electric propulsion is a technology aimed at achieving thrust with high
exhaust velocities, which results in a reduction in the amount of propellant
required compared to other conventional propulsion methods.
 Reduced propellant mass can significantly decrease the launch mass of a
spacecraft or satellite, leading to lower costs from the use of smaller
launch vehicles to deliver a desired mass into a given orbit or to a deepspace target.

Electric Propulsion
Electro-thermal
SPACECRAFT PROPULSION TECHNOLOGIES
• Used to heat a fluid or
gas, which is vented out an
exhaust nozzle to produce
thrust.
• Hydrazine is the common
propellant.
• Resistojet and Arcjet
motors
• Works by creating ions
out of a stable gas (generally
by electron bombardment).
• Xenon is the common
propellant.
• Ion and Hall effect
thrusters
LMC7000, A2100, AMSATPhase 3-D, Intelsat-5 F-2…
GOCE, AEHV-SV2, SMART1, MEASAT 3..
Electro-magnetic
• Works by accelerating
charged fluid by utilization
of a flowing electrical
current and magnetic fields.
• Pulsed plasma (PPT)
