Power-processing unit (PPU) designs for resistojet and arcjet propulsion systems were developed. Various PPU power converter and power circuit technologies were considered. Arcjet, resistojet and chemical propulsion system performance were compared. Significant propellant mass reductions are enabled with electric propulsion.
