The hydrazine propulsion system is one of the most widely used monopropellantpropulsion systems. This low-cost and low mass system is used for the attitude control ofsatellites due to its high specificity and rapid response.For this purpose, in the presentstudy, an optimal design of a hydrazine monopropellant propulsion system with the aim ofminimization of total mass and maximization of total impulse in the framework ofmultidisciplinary design optimization and sequential design method is considered. Inaddition, the principles of multidisciplinary and sequential design are described in thispaper. It has been tried to examine the impact of different elements on design goals andcompare the optimal value obtained in each of the design structures from differentaspects. It should be noted that the design process is accomplished in two ways, i.e.single-objective and multi-objective, and the optimal multidisciplinary design method iscompared with the sequential design method for the hydrazine monopropellant propulsionsystem.
