Hall thruster is a sort of electric propulsion and has been studied in many research institutes. In the design process of Hall thruster, a numerical simulation called Full-PIC (Particle-In-Cell) method is used. Although this simulation provides high accurate result, it is known as a very time consuming job. In this paper, we present a study of acceleration of Full-PIC simulation on a CPU-FPGA tightly coupled environment. A high-load part is selected and off-loaded to an FPGA. Zynq-7000 and Vivado HLS are used for implementation. To optimize the implemented design, every target process was divided into some parts for pipelining and adjustment interval. Three off-loaded subroutines named "field-source", "particle-att-ion" and "particle-att-ele" achieved 8.53 times, 12.78 times and 14.95 times performance compared with the software execution, respectively. The total execution time of target part is sped up 5.17 times compared with Cortex-A9 667MHz in Zynq.
