At IOM Leipzig, we developed an efficient grid erosion simulation code. In our approach to ion beam extraction and grid erosion occurring in a multi-grid multi-aperture ion thruster we break down the complex interplay of pertinent elementary processes into consecutive steps. On the basis of ion optical and short-time grid-erosion measurements on a small broad-beam ion source, a comprehensive experimental validation of this code has been done. The good agreement between measured and simulated data furnishes confidence in the methodology.
