Performance of a Cylindrical Hall-Effect Thruster Using Permanent Magnets [PDF]
While annular Hall thrusters can operate at high efficiency at kW power levels, it is difficult to construct one that operates over a broad envelope from 1 kW down to 100 W while maintaining an efficiency of 45-55%. Scaling to low power while holding the
