Consortium for Hall Effect Orbital Propulsion System (CHEOPS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2020,
CHEOPS proposes to develop three different Hall Effect Thruster electric propulsion systems: a dual mode EPS for GEO applications, a low power for LEO applications and a >20 kW high thrust EPS for exploration applications. Each of these will be developed according to market needs and drivers applying incremental technology changes to existing EPS products. The development approach will follow the ...

Pulsed Chemical Rocket with Green High Performance Propellants (PulCheR)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
PulCheR (Pulsed Chemical Rocket with Green High Performance Propellants) is a new propulsion concept in which the propellants are fed in the combustion chamber at low pressure and the thrust is generated by means of high frequency pulses, reproducing the defence mechanism of a notable insect: the bombardier beetle.The radical innovation introduced by PulCheR is the elimination of any external pres ...

SPAce exploration Research for Throttleable Advanced eNgine (SPARTAN)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
The SPARTAN research aims at developing a throttable propulsion technology, which is mandatorily needed for any planetary soft and precision landing. It relies on the hybrid engine technology, exploiting its capability of being throttled and its proper performances.This research is complementary to ESA TRP and Piedmont Regional development programs. It implements and strengthens the technological ...

In-line characterisation of nanoparticles using a combination of analytical techniques in real time (In-Sight)
Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2014,
In-Sight is a SME-driven project on the in-line characterisation of nanoparticles during nanomaterial manufacturing. This in-line characterisation is the ultimate goal. Within the time-span of the project (3 years) it is our objective to show that a combination of analytical techniques that are capable of real time measurements will provide valuable information for the nanoparticle user. It is our ...

HeliconPlasmaHydrazine.COmbinedMicro (HPH.com)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2012,
The objective of the research program is to design, optimize and develop a space plasma thruster based on helicon-radio-frequency technology and its application to a nano-satellite for attitude and position control. Moreover a detailed feasibility study will be also conducted to evaluate the possibility of using the plasma thruster to heat and decompose a secondary propellant. The feasibility stud ...
