To solve the nozzle swing angle non-contact measurement problem, we present a nozzle pose estimation algorithm involving weighted measurement uncertainty based on rotation parameters. Firstly, the instantaneous axis of the rocket nozzle is constructed and used to model the pivot point and the nozzle coordinate system. Then, the rotation matrix and translation vector are parameterized by Cayley-Gibbs-Rodriguez parameters, and the novel object space collinearity error equation involving weighted measurement uncertainty of feature points is constructed. The nozzle pose is obtained at this step by the Gröbner basis method. Finally, the swing angle is calculated based on the conversion relationship between the nozzle static coordinate system and the nozzle dynamic coordinate system. Experimental results prove the high accuracy and robustness of the proposed method. In the space of 1.5 m × 1.5 m × 1.5 m, the maximum angle error of nozzle swing is 0.103°.

본 논문에서는 고체 로켓 노즐 내부의 2상유동 및 노즐 표면 마모 특성에 관하여 수치적으로 연구하였다. 로켓 노즐 내부의 연소 가스에 포함된 여러 가지 크기의 산화알루미늄 입자에 대해서 Stoke 수를 정의하고, 입자의 궤적을 라그랑지안 방법을 통하여 추적 및 분석하였다. 아울러 Weber 수를 정의하여 산화알루미늄 입자의 안정성을 고찰하였다. 큰 입자들은 유동의 급가속에 의하여 노즐목을 통과한 후 분리되었다. 이와 같이 분리된 입자들은 노즐 출구에서의 입자분포를 크게 변화시켰다. 위와 같은 계산 결과로부터 노즐벽의 수축부분은 산화 알루미늄 입자의 영향을 받을 수 있는 가능성이 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 입자가 노즐벽면과 충돌시에 발생하게되는 노즐 표면의 기계적 마모 현상을 예측하였다.

Aerodynamic forces and moments have been used to control rocket propelled vehicles. If control is required at very low speed, Those systems only provide a limited capability because aerodynamic control force is proportional to the air density and low dynamic pressure. But thrust vector control(TVC) can overcome the disadvantages. TVC is the method which generates the side force and roll moment by controlling exhausted gas directly in a rocket nozzle. TVC is classified by mechanical and fluid dynamic methods. Mechanical methods can change the flow direction by several objects installed in a rocket nozzle exhaust such as tapered ramp tabs and jet vane. Fluid dynamic methods control the flight direction with the injection of secondary gaseous flows into the rocket nozzle. The tapered ramp tabs of mechanical methods are used in this paper. They installed at the rear in the rocket nozzle could be freely moved along axial and radial direction on the mounting ring to provide the mass flow rate which is injected from the rocket nozzle. In this paper, the conceptual design and the performance study on the tapered ramp tabs of the thurst vector control has been carried out using the supersonic cold flow system and shadow graph. Numerical simulation was also performed to study flow characteristics and interactions between ramp tabs. This paper provides to analyze the location of normal shock wave and distribution of surface pressure on the region enclosed by the tapered ramp tabs.

A numerical study of the unsteady flow in an over-expanded thrust optimized contour and compressed truncated perfect rocket nozzle is carried out in present paper. These rocket nozzles are subject to flow separation in transient phase at engine start-up and/or engine shut-down. The separation flow structures at different pressure ratios are observed. The start-up process exhibits two different shock structures such as FSS (Free Shock Separation) and RSS (Restricted Shock Separation). For a range of pressure ratios, hysteresis phenomenon occurs between these two separation patterns. A three-dimension compressible Navier-Stokes solver is used for the present study. One equation Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model is selected. The computed nozzle wall pressures show a good agreement with the experimental measurements. Present results have shown that present code can be used for the analysis of the transient flows in nozzle.

고체 추진 로켓에 있어서의 추력제어는 액체 추진 로켓의 그것보다 한정되어 있다. 추진제의 혼합비는 물론 연소시간과 면적 등 연소에 관계된 모든 부분들이 이미 정해져 있기 때문에 당연한 결과이다. 이러한 고체 추진 로켓의 추력을 방향 제어하기는 고체 추진 로켓의 용도나 목적 대비 효율 측면에서 실용적이지 못한 부분이다. 하지만 고체 추진 로켓의 추력의 극대화하여 탑재물의 중량 한계를 늘리고 보다 많은 목적을 위한 탑재물의 증가는 당연히 이루어야 할 과제이다. 고체 추진 로켓에서의 추력을 노즐 형상의 설계를 통해 강구해 보았다.

LE-7A is the main engine of the H-IIA launch vehicle. Under its development, the nozzle suffered from two troubles during startup and shutdown transients of the engine. One is a large side load, which damages the actuator of the nozzle, and the other is damage on regenerative cooling tubes due to high heat load. It has been considered that these problems are caused by a peculiar separation pattern called Restricted Shock Separation (RSS). RSS is observed in several rocket nozzles, for example, LE-7A nozzle, Vulcain nozzle and so on. Their contours are not conventional truncated perfect (TP) nozzle - LE-7A nozzle is a compressed truncated perfect (CTP) nozzle and Vulcain nozzle is a thrust optimized (TO) nozzle. Although it is believed that the occurrence of RSS is affected by the nozzle contour, the mechanisms are not clarified sufficiently yet. In the present paper, a parametric numerical study is carried out to investigate the mechanisms of the occurrence of RSS in CTP nozzles during startup transient. The results show that RSS is caused by the adverse pressure gradient downstream of the Mach disk. The adverse pressure gradient is caused by the interaction of the pressure wave and Mach disk. The method to avoid the occurrence of RSS is also examined. A small step inside the nozzle affects the position of the separation point and prevents RSS. The result shows that the possibility that RSS can be suppressed by controlling the position of the separation point.

본 논문에서는 핀틀 로켓의 초기 최적 노즐 팽창비를 결정하는 방법에 대해서 제시하였다. 초기 최적 노즐 팽창비는 최대/최소 압력의 추력 계수로부터 계산되는 질량 가중 추력 계수를 최대화시켜 결정하였으며 이는 주어진 임무를 수행함에 있어 소요되는 추진제무게가 최소화되는 조건과 일치한다. 초기 최적 노즐 팽창비 결정에 영향을 주는 인자는 최대 압력, 추력조절비 그리고 총추력비이며 이중에서 총추력비가 가장 큰 영향을 준다.

A solid rocket motor has quite complex physical condition such exothermal chemical reaction in subsonic area and supersonic ex pansion in a converging-diverging nozzle. To introduce a simulation tool for compressible flow in supersonic range as well as incompressible chemical reaction zone in a whole rocket nozzle is a essential demand. Since the flow vary subsonic to super sonic, the convergence in computation becomes very low and unstable in a whole domain of rocket motor. This paper reports the 2-D Axisymmetric and simple 3-D solid propellant combustion and flow of gases in rocket motor by using a precondi tioning, shear stress turbulence modeling, AUSM(p). To simulate the simplified combustion process, Double base solid propellant is used to calculate reaction of solid propellant.

This paper describes the performance characteristics of flow and structure in the post-chamber and nozzle. Using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique, the stress and compressible flow fields in the downstream of the post chamber and nozzle were numerically calculated. Besides, the stress characteristics at the wall of post-chamber and nozzle were investigated under different thickness (2mm, 5mm and 10mm) of the nozzle wall. The stress pattern demonstrates that the strength of nozzle wall having 10mm is safer than that of 5mm or 2mm according to von Mises stress irrespective to the pressure field

고속 회전하는 로켓보조추진탄의 로켓 추진 유동특성을 수치해석적으로 연구하였다. 회전지상연소시험을 통해 연소실 내부 압력을 계측하였고 지상 조건, 작동 고도 조건, 기저부 압력 조건의 노즐압력비를 적용하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 그리고 수치해석 결과를 등엔트로피 1차원 해와 지상회전시험 결과와 비교 하였다. 또한 동일 노즐압력비에서 유동의 회전 유/무에 따른 추력특성의 차이를 확인하였다.
