High Power, High Voltage Electric Power System for Electric Propulsion

This paper provides an overview of the 30 KW, 600 V MRHE power subsystem. Descriptions of the power subsystem elements, the mode of power transfer, and power and mass estimates are presented. A direct-drive architecture for electric propulsion is considered which reduces mass and complexity. Solar arrays with concentrators are used for increased efficiency. Finally, the challenges due to the environment of a hypothetical lunar mission as well as due to the advanced technologies considered are outlined.

Blocking oscillator uses low triggering voltage

To prevent premature triggering of a blocking oscillator, a smaller magnetic core is added to the conventional oscillator circuit. This serves as a second blocking oscillator and has a lower triggering threshold.
