摘要：
A new comparatively simple quasi-one-dimensional physicomathematical model of plasma acceleration in an ablative pulsed plasma thruster with a capacitive energy storage is proposed. In spite of its simplicity, the model adequately reflects the main physical processes occurring in the thruster channel in the course of plasma blob acceleration: the blob dynamics, plasma radiation, absorption of radiation by the Teflon channel walls, ablation of the wall material, and plasma ionization. The results of computer simulations agree well with the experimental results.
