Abstract: | In this paper a thrust formula for applied field MPD will be presented. The swirling velocity will be derived from the magnetic stress tensor and its conversion into axial energy into the magnetic nozzle will be analytically treated. The theoretical prediction of both swirling velocity and thrust will be compared to the measurements showing a reasonable agreement. |
