The present 6-module rectifier system was design and implemented in 2000 and since that time, one of the modules for the rectifier system was burned, and the Arc Jet facility has operated at less than full capacity. This project was to determine the rough order of magnitude (ROM) estimate for the modification of the Arc jet rectifier system to bring it back to the full design capacity. « read less
