Abstract In this work, we present the results on thrust performance of 0.5 kg sub-joule pulsed plasma thruster prototype based on a high-voltage transformer with magnetic storage capable of work at frequency of 400 Hz. The discharge unit is made of ferroelectric ceramics with an option for utilizing liquid propellant. In case of vacuum oil as a propellant, we obtained values of thrust of ~ 80 nN·s per discharge and 33 μN·s for 400 pulses in 1 second.
