The propulsion system consists of a single gas and a nozzle. To create propulsion you just need to open the nozzle and the gas will be released.
The main components of the system.
The main components of this system is a single gas, a nozzle, and a containment tank.
Situations where this type of system would be appropriate or the most efficient choice.
Cold gas propulsion systems are very important for small satellites that go into earth's orbit.
How the energy is converted from fuel form to propulsion.
The pressure from where the gas is released pushes the aircraft. When the pressure in the containment tank goes down, so does the thrust and efficiency.
The amount of fuel used to make attitude adjustments.
The propellant tanks in the cold gas system stores the fuel required for attitude controls of a aircraft.
Explain how expansion of a fluid being propelled from the space vehicle is related to Newton’s Laws. The propulsion of the cold gas system pushes the aircraft which relates to Newton's Third Law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Explain how life span of the vehicle is dependent on the amount of fuel it has and how quickly it is used. The less pressure there is in the containment tank, the less powerful the thrust. If you are low on pressure and fuel you will just get stuck and won't be able to move. The fuel is just used for the attitude controls.
