摘要：

A single-axis simulator was developed for testing a colloid microthruster while measuring its thrust directly over the range from 1 to 10 μlb at ± 0.5 μlb accuracy. This test stand duplicated actual spacecraft interfaces, utilizing battery input power, command circuits, and telemetry. It was used to evaluate microthruster performance and for correlating indirect timeof- flight thrust data. Measurements were taken at load-to-precision ratios greater than 8 × 107lbm/lbf. © 1969 American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Inc., All rights reserved.
