THE METHOD OF FLIGHTS OPTIMIZATION PROBLEM SOLUTION BETWEEN ELLIPTIC ORBITS WITH THE USE OF THE BIG AND LOW THRUST ENGINES
The use of the high and low thrust engines combinations in the space vehicle combines the advantages as pulse maneuvers (a short time of flight), and maneuvers with low thrust (a high weight of the useful loading) and allows to find the compromise between the criteria «weight of payload» - «duration of flight». Therefore the optimization problem of the interorbital flights of combined schemes is actual from the point of view of efficiency increase of space transport operations.
