IMPULSIVE MANEUVERS
• Brief firings of onboard rocket motors to change the magnitude
and direction of the velocity vector instantaneously.
• Each impulsive maneuver results in a change in v in the
velocity of the spacecraft.
• v is related to m, the mass propellant consumed (m = mp)

When V1=V2=V:
(∆𝑉)2 = 𝑉 2 + 𝑉 2 − 2𝑉𝑉𝑐𝑜𝑠 ∆𝜃 V1
(∆𝑉)2 = 2𝑉 2 (1 − 𝑐𝑜𝑠 ∆𝜃 )

HOHNMANN TRANSFER
• Energy efficient
• Coplanar
transfer
• Elliptical orbit
tangent to both
circles orbit at its
apse line.

HOHNMANN TRANSFER
If orbit 1 is a circle,
the target point
should be the
apogee of orbit 2.
