The processes of metal heating and evaporation in an induction heater have been studied experimentally and analytically. Jet thrust created as a result of the material evaporation in a lowpressure chamber was measured and, in addition, analytically estimated. The experimental results are in satisfactory agreement with theoretical estimates. We suppose to use the data obtained in developing an evaporativetype propulsion system with space debris as working fluid. Keywords: space debris, space engine, heating, inductor, zinc, evaporation, jet thrust.
