CONTINUED STUDIES ON ELECTROMAGNETIC MEANS OF ADDING HEAT AND KINETIC ENERGY TO A GAS.

Abstract

The work completed during the year 1963 is presented. Included are discussions of: the nonequilibrium RF plasma source; design considerations for accelerator coils for the traveling wave pump plasma accelerator; the effects of using magnetic core material in the accelerator coils; numerical results for the onedimensional flow in the traveling wave pump for various modes of operation; and methods of instrumentation employed to measure plasma properties with the primary difficulties encountered.
