Hollow cathode is responsible for both creating plasma discharge and neutralization of the beam ions for Hall Effect Thruster (HET). In this study, appropriate placement of the cathode is investigated by taking into account that the decrease in cathode coupling voltage increases thruster efficiency. Regarding this, the effects of mass flow rate of the cathode and keeper current on the coupling voltage are investigated, according to available experimental results from the literature.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/nazlituranwritings.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/cusp_hallthruster_bust-e1495409717227.jpg?w=1462\" width=\"1462\" height=\"1097\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can reach this paper with the following link:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bustlab.boun.edu.tr\/assets\/B23%20-%202015%20RAST%20Nazli%20PID3666355_SUBMITTED_REVISION.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">7th International Conference on Recent Advances in Space Technologies (RAST), Istanbul, Turkey, 16-19 June 2015.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Some figures from the paper:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-205\" src=\"https:\/\/nazlituranwritings.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/bao_lab6_oguz2.jpg\" alt=\"BaO_LaB6_oguz2\" width=\"696\" height=\"372\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neutralization of ions is important for all electric thruster types when considering thruster efficiency and life.
