초록

본 연구는 이원추진제 추력기의 핵심부품에 대한 성능평가의 일환으로, 기체메탄/액체산소를 추진제로 사용하는 스월 동축형 인젝터의 리세스 길이 및 분사압력에 따른 분무특성 파악을 목표로 하였다. 분무형상은 슐리렌 가시화 기법을 이용하여 획득하였고, 슐리렌장치는 광원, 오목거울, 초고속카메라 등으로 구성된다. 내부 인젝터에 의한 액체 분무의 경우 hollow cone 형상을 확인하였으며, 내부 인젝터 오리피스 길이의 증가와 함께 스월강도 감쇠의 영향으로 분무각은 줄어들었다. 기체-액체를 함께 분사할 때, 분무각은 리세스 길이가 증가함에 따라 외부혼합영역에서 증가하지만, 내부혼합영역에서는 작아졌는데, 액체분무 분사 압력의 높고 낮음에 무관하다는 사실을 확인하였다.

This research is carried out for the performance evaluation of the injector that is one of the critical components of bipropellant-rocket-engine. Spray characteristics are investigated in detail according to the recess length and injection pressure on the swirl-coaxial-injector using gaseous methane and liquid oxygen as propellants. A visualization is conducted by the Schlieren photography that is composed of a light source, concave mirrors, knife, and high-speed-camera. A hollow-cone-shape is identified in the liquid spray that is spread only by inner injector and the spray angle is decreased due to the diminution of swirl strength in accordance with the increase of the length of injector orifice. When the injector sprays the liquid through the inner injector with the aid of gas through the outer injector, the spray angle in external mixing region tends to increase with rise of the recess length, while in internal mixing region, it is decreased. It is also confirmed that the same tendency of the spray angle with recess length appears irrespective of the injection pressure of liquid spray.
