The rarefied gas flow phenomenon of thermophoresis is studied experimentally on a macroscopic spherical particle with a diameter of 5.1 cm for pressures ranging from 0.01 to 10 Pa (Knudsen numbers$Kn$from 10 to 0.01, respectively). Size scaling with

Thermophoretic force acting on spheroids with an equivalent volume to a sphere with a 2.54 cm radius is measured and compared to a theoretical result based on the Waldmann limit. This work focuses on spheroids in which the modified axis is parallel t

Both positive and negative thermophoretic forces are experimentally measured using a nano-Newton Thrust Stand (nNTS) to determine the effect of temperature gradient on force produced. It is found that there is an average 62% maximum force increase as

The contribution of edge force on the Crookes radiometer is experimentally investigated with three vane geometries. This work examines increasing the force per unit weight of a radiometer vane for applications such as near-space propulsion by increas

Spacecraft contamination has long been a subject of study in the rarefied gas dynamics community. Professor Mikhail Ivanov coined the term a spacecraft's "own ambient environment" to describe the effects of natural and satellite driven processes on t
The growing interest in the use of microspacecraft within government and industry is driving a critical need for new propulsion systems capable of fulfilling a wide range of mission requirements. The applicability of each propulsion system is highly

The force that acts on a thin vane immersed in rarefied gas when a temperature gradient is imposed along or across the vane has historically been known as the Radiometric force. First observed by Fresnel in 1825, the radiometric force has regained it
