FIELD: engines and pumps.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to space engineering, particularly, to electric jet engines and is designed to control space craft of low thrust (up to 5 N). Cyclotron plasma engine comprises plasma accelerator housing, solenoids (inductors) and electric circuit with compensating cathodes. Note here that self-contained ion source, electron and ion flow splitter. Asynchronous cyclotron makes said plasma accelerator. Cyclotron is divided into dees by two coaxial pairs of parallel grids with clearances. Said dees make homogeneous, identical and invariable electric fields of opposite-direction of electric-field vectors. Cyclotron comprises the ferromagnetic adapters with inductors in quantity complying with the number of plasma accelerator outlet channel thrust development directions. Outlet straight gas dielectric channels of this engine communicate with said main adapters via pass electric valves. Said channels are communicated via ferromagnetic adapters wit inductors.
EFFECT: higher specific burn, decreased weight and overall dimensions, lower power consumption.
