Abstract

Due to significant advantages and successful applications, electric propulsionhas become a key technology for both scientific and commercial spacemissions. Nowadays, almost every satellite is equipped with an electricalpropulsion subsystem for the purposes of orbit transfer, orbit correction,collision avoidance, and performing stating-keeping maneuvers. Consideringthese advances in space propulsion technology, TUBITAK UZAY initiated aproject to establish an electric propulsion test facility and develop a Hallthruster propulsion system (HALE Project). In the scope of the project,Turkey’s first qualification test model electric propulsion system has beendeveloped in Turkey’s very first electric propulsion laboratory. The facilityhas all necessary equipment to test Hall Thruster systems up to 5 kW power.The developed Hall thruster propulsion system is optimized to be operated at1350 W providing minimum 75 mN thrust and 1500 s specific impulse. Thepaper summarizes all related R&D activities and presents performance of thedeveloped equipment.

Özet

Elektrikli itki, önemli avantajları ve başarılı uygulamalarından dolayı bilimsel ve ticari uzay görevlerinde kilit teknoloji haline gelmiştir. Günümüzde, hemen hemen her uydu, yörünge transferi, düzeltmesi, koruması ve çarpışmadan kaçınma manevralarını gerçekleştirmek amacıyla elektrikli itki sistemiyle donatılmıştır. İtki teknolojisindeki bu gelişmeleri dikkate alarak, TÜBİTAK UZAY, Türkiye’de elektrikli itki test altyapısı kurmak ve bir Hall Etkili itki sistemi geliştirmek amacıyla proje başlatmıştır (HALE Projesi). Projede, Türkiye'nin ilk yeterlilik modeli elektrikli itki sistemi Türkiye'nin ilk elektrikli itki sistemi geliştirme laboratuvarında başarıyla geliştirilmiştir. Tesis 5 kW güce kadar çalışan elektrikli itki sistemlerini test edebilecek tüm ekipmanlara sahiptir. Geliştirilen Hall tipi elektrikli itki sistemi 1350 W’ta çalışmak ve en az 75 mN itki kuvveti ile 1500 özgül itkiyi sağlamak üzere optmize edilmiştir. Bu makale gerçekleştirilen tüm ilgili ARGE faaliyetleri özetlemekte ve geliştirilen ekipmanların performansını sunmaktadır.
