Solid rocket propulsion systems are generally used for tactical missiles due to the structural and operational simplicity. Nevertheless, various kinds of design factors including outer diameter, length, weight, loading efficiency of propellant grain effects to thrust performance. Dual thrust is beneficial to range extension and terminal velocity increasement. But loading efficiency becomes low in case to obtain dual thrust performance by burning surface control. So, It is predicted to be reasonable to obtain dual thrust performance with high/low burning rate propellants. This study is on internal ballistic analysis and ground test to confirm dual thrust performance.

In this study, study on the internal ballistic analysis method for single-chamber dual-thrust rocket motors meeting a dual-thrust profile requirement by tailoring the grain burning area is presented. The analysis method, which can acquire variables required for the performance prediction, considering gradual change of burning rate correction factor and specific impulse in the transition phase, is proposed. Improvements compared to the analysis method in the previous study, which do not consider change in the transition phase, are verified through comparison between the newly proposed method and the method in the previous study. Internal ballistic variables are obtained for four different ground firing test conditions using the proposed method, and the performance prediction for each condition is conducted using these variables. These prediction results and the ground test data are in good agreement, so it is confirmed that the performance prediction of dual-thrust motors with same design geometries based on the proposed analysis method is available.

유도미사일용 추진기관으로 흔히 쓰이는 고체 로켓 모타의 경우 단순 추력형보다 복합 추력형 로켓을 사용하는 것이 효과적인 경우가 많다. 특히 발사초기에 높은 추력이 필요하고 그 후는 지속적이며 상대적으로 낮은 추력만을 요하는 무기체계의 경우 일반적으로 부스터(booster)와 서스테이너(sustainer) 로켓을 별도로 제작/작동시켜 임무를 수행하나 이를 하나의 추진기관으로 통합하여 두 단계의 추력을 동시에 실현하는 이중 추력형 로켓 모타를 이용하게 되면 많은 이점이 있다.

This paper describes the development of the dual-thrust flight motor for enhancing the hit probability of unguided rockets. We designed dual-thrust flight motor by shape modification of the double base propellant with high burning rate, and confirmed the dual-thrust performance by static firing tests. The test results showed the thrust ratio of about 1:7.6 between sustaining phase and boosting phase, and had a quietly normal dual-thrust characteristics. And the results showed that there was not the fire extinction phenomenon of propellant due to the pressure drop.

Numerical simulations were carried out in a supersonic nozzle to investigate the possibility of using dual-throat nozzle concept in fluidic thrust vector control. Validation of the methodology showed an excellent agreement between the computational fluid dynamics results and the experimental data available, which were based on the well-assessed SST $k-{\omega}$ turbulence mode. The deflection angle, system resultant thrust ratio, and thrust efficiency were investigated in a wide range of nozzle pressure ratios and injection pressure ratios. The performance variations of the dual-throat nozzle thrust vector control system were clearly illustrated with this two-dimensional computational domain. Some constructive conclusions were obtained that may be used as a reference for further studies in the fluidic thrust vector control field.

인공위성용 추력기는 위성의 자세제어 및 궤도조정용 소형 액체추진기관으로서 개발기술은 인공위성 그 자체는 물론 위성 발사체와 유도 미사일의 추진기관에 이르기까지 다양하게 확장 적용할 수 있는 핵심 기반기술이다. 때문에 선진국으로부터의 기술 이전을 기대하기 힘든 품목으로, 자체 개발을 통해 위성이나 유도무기에 장착 운용시험을 하기에도 막대한 비용 때문에 회피되고 있는 실정이다. (주)한화는 정부에서 국책과제로 추진하고 있는 KOMPSAT 위성 개발사업에 참여하여 소형 액체 추진기관인 단일 추진제 추력기의 개발을 추진하였다 1994년 11월 사업착수 이래 미국 TRW사로부터 추력기 설계, 해석 및 제작 기술을 이전 받았으며, 추력기 제작/시험 시설을 완공하여 TRW사의 제품 품질 요구조건(product assurance requirements)에 의거 제작에 착수하였다. 현재 총 8세트의 이중 추력기 모듈(dual thruster module)을 제작 납품하였으며 또한 추력기 자체의 핵심 부품을 원부자재 가공으로부터 제작하고 이의 인증 시험을 성공적으로 완료하였다. 현재 국산화 추력기를 KOMPSAT 위성에 장착하기 위한 이중 추력기 모듈 제작이 진행 중에 있다.

There is a many way of LPRE throttling methods, high-pressure-drop systems, dual-manifold injector, gas injection, multiple chambers, pulse modulation and movable injector components. Especially dual-manifold injector is essentially combines two fixed-area injectors into a common structure, with independent feed systems controlling flow to each injector manifold. In this paper, using indirect photography and liquid film thickness measurement with various injection pressure and tangential entry diameter to decide stability of spray over a wide thrust range in dual manifold injector.

Dual throat nozzle(DTN) is recently attracting much attention as a new concept of the thrust vectoring technique. This DTN is designed with two throats, an upstream minimum and a downstream minimum at the nozzle exit, with a cavity in between the upstream throat and exit. In the present study, a computational work has been carried out to analyze the performance of a dual throat nozzle(DTN) at various mass flow rate of secondary flow and nozzle pressure ratios(NPR). Two-dimensional, steady, compressible Navier-Stokes equations were solved using a fully implicit finite volume scheme. The present computational results were validated with some experimental data available. Based upon the present results, The control effectiveness of thrust-vector is discussed in terms of the thrust coefficient and the discharge coefficient.
