霍尔推力器放电通道低频振荡是影响其性能和稳定性的重要物理现象. 本文通过一维流体模型数值研究了霍尔推力器放电电流低频振荡特性及其抑制方法. 假设放电通道内满足准中性条件, 考虑电子与中性气体碰撞、电子反常传导及电子与壁面碰撞频率对电导率的影响, 研究了等离子体参数的变化以及磁场、放电电压、原子速度和预电离率对放电电流振荡的幅值及频率的影响. 结果表明, 在典型工况下, 放电通道内电流出现频率约为40 kHz的稳定周期性振荡; 随着通道内部磁场强度的增大, 电流振荡频率减小, 放电电流振幅在较高的磁场强度下随着电压的升高逐渐降低; 当预电离率升至4%以上时, 电流振幅随电压的升高逐渐降低; 通过降低原子速度, 升高预电离率, 可达到部分或完全抑制电流振荡的效果. 模拟结果表明, 通过提高通道磁场强度、降低放电电压、提高工质预电离率和调整进气方式以降低原子轴向速度等方式, 可有效减弱或完全抑制放电电流的低频振荡.Low frequency oscillation in the discharge channel of Hall thruster is an important physical phenomenon that affects its performance and stability. In this paper, the characteristics of low-frequency oscillation of the discharge current of Hall thruster and its suppression method are numerically studied by using a one-dimensional fluid model. Assuming that the discharge channel satisfies the quasi-neutral condition, the effects of electron-neutral collision, electron anomalous transport and electron-wall collision on conductivity are considered. The changes of plasma parameters and the effects of magnetic field, preionization rate, and atomic velocity on the amplitude and frequency of discharge current oscillation are also studied. Research results show that the variation of electron temperature in the discharge channel is closely related to the ionization process, and the electron temperature increases as the ionization intensity increases. The fluctuations in neutral gas flow rate and atomic density in the discharge process cause the ionization region to move forward and backward and the ionization intensity to change, which are the main driving forces for the low-frequency oscillation of discharge current in the channel. The magnetic field intensity in the discharge channel affects the axial current by influencing the electron mobility. With the increase of field strength, the oscillation frequency of current decreases, and under different magnetic field strengths, the current amplitude drops as the discharge voltage decreases. When the preionization rate of the working gas increases to above 4%, the amplitude of the discharge current oscillation gradually decreases. When the preionization rate is greater than 3% and the atomic velocity is less than 160 m/s, the discharge current oscillation in the channel exhibits damping attenuation, achieving a stabilizing effect which conduces to stabilizing the discharge of the Hall thruster.
