Thrust measurement and thrust balance development at DLR’s electric propulsion test facility

Abstract Electric space propulsion thrusters only produce low thrust forces. For the fulfillment of a space mission this implies long thruster runtimes, and this entails long qualification times on ground. For such long testing times, a ground facility requires a vacuum chamber and a powerful pumpin...
