This imparts additional energy to the propellant, so that one can extract more work out of each kilogram of propellant, at the expense of increased power consumption and (usually) higher cost. Also, the thrust levels available from typically used arcjet engines are very low compared with chemical engines.
Electrical arc: Electric current arcing with enough energy to ignite the material receiving the arc. Engine exhaust; Explosive charges; Flow friction: Heat generated by high velocity oxygen flow over a non-metal Note:Flow friction is a hypothesis. Flow friction has not been experimentally verified and should be considered only in conjunction ...

Many GEO spacecraft, and all 95 Iridium, used Aerojet MR-501/MR-502 series resistojet engines. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Nowadays resistojet propulsion is used for orbit insertion , attitude control , and deorbit of LEO satellites, and do well in situations where energy is much more plentiful than mass, and where propulsion efficiency needs to be reasonably ...
