COAXIAL ABLATION PULSE PLASMA ENGINE WITH THRUST VECTORING Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC H05H1/00 F03H1/00 

FIELD: cosmonautics.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to space engineering, in particular to electric rocket engines (ERE) intended for installation on spacecraft (SC). Coaxial ablation pulse plasma engine with thrust vectoring comprises a working medium bushing, an igniter, an internal electrode, an external electrode, a magnetic nozzle, deflecting electromagnets, a bushing of external electromagnets, external electromagnets, power supply device of electromagnets, power supply device of capacitive energy storage and pulse generator; capacitive energy storage, pulse generator, matching device. Inner and outer electrodes form a coaxial channel with closed and open ends. Working medium bushing is arranged at channel closed end. Magnetic nozzle is located behind the edge of the free end of the coaxial channel, on the outer side of which deflecting electromagnets are rigidly attached. Magnetic nozzle and deflecting electromagnets are located in inner cavity of bushing of external electromagnets, which on the outer surface has a rigid connection with external electromagnets, which, when interacting with the deflecting magnets, enable to change the angle of inclination of the axis of the magnetic nozzle to the axis of the coaxial channel.

EFFECT: possibility to control engine thrust vector direction.
