Characteristics of droplets ejected from liquid glycerol doped with carbon in laser ablation propulsion

The characteristics of droplets ejected from liquid glycerol doped with carbon are investigated in laser ablation propul- sion. Results show that carbon content has an effect on both the coupling coefficient and the specific impulse. The doped- carbon moves the laser focal position from the glycerol...

More Information
Summary:The characteristics of droplets ejected from liquid glycerol doped with carbon are investigated in laser ablation propul- sion. Results show that carbon content has an effect on both the coupling coefficient and the specific impulse. The doped- carbon moves the laser focal position from the glycerol interior to the surface. This results in a less consumed glycerol and a high specific impulse. An optimal propulsion can be realized by varying carbon content in glycerol.
