This paper investigates the integrated control of an air-breathing hypersonic vehicle considering the safety of propulsion system under acceleration. First, the vehicle/engine coupling model that contains a control-oriented vehicle model and a quasi-one-dimensional dual-mode scramjet model is established. Next, the coupling process of the integrated control system is introduced in detail. Based on the coupling model, the integrated control framework is studied and an integrated control system including acceleration command generator, vehicle attitude control loop and engine multivariable control loop is discussed. Then, the effectiveness and superiority of the integrated control system are verified through the comparison of normal case and limiting case of an air-breathing hypersonic scramjet coupling model. Finally, the main results show that under normal acceleration case and limiting acceleration case, the integrated control system can track the altitude and speed of the vehicle extremely well and adjust the angle deflection of elevator to offset the thrust moment to maintain the attitude stability of the vehicle, while assigning the two-stage fuel equivalent ratio to meet the thrust performance and safety margin of the engine. Meanwhile, the high-acceleration requirement of the air-breathing hypersonic vehicle makes the propulsion system operating closer to the extreme dangerous conditions. The above contents demonstrate that considering the propulsion system safety will make integrated control system more real and meaningful.

20세기 전반 극초음속 공기흡입식 추진시스템에 대한 개념이 정립된 이래 항공우주기술선진국은 이러한 개념을 구현하기 위하여 꾸준히 연구를 진행하였으며 2004년 NASA의 X-43A Hyper-X가 마하 10의 극초 음속 공기흡입식 비행을 성공적으로 수행하였다. 현재 각 국에서는 이러한 극초음속 공기흡입식 추진시스템을 SSTO(Single Stage to Orbit) 또는 TSTO(Two Stage to Orbit) 개념의 재사용 위성 발사체 및 극초음속 미사일에 적용하기 위한 프로젝트가 본격적으로 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에는 미국, 유럽, 호주 아시아에서 개발하고 있는 극초음속 공기흡입식 추진시스템의 역사 및 현황과 이러한 추진시스템을 적용한 비행체, 미사일 개발 연구를 정리하였다.

An air-data estimator for generic air-breathing hypersonic vehicles (AHSVs) is developed and demonstrated with an example vehicle configuration. The AHSV air-data estimation strategy emphasized improvement of the angle of attack estimate accuracy to a degree necessitated by the stringent operational requirements of the air-breathing propulsion. the resulting estimation problem involves highly nonlinear diffusion process (propagation); consequently, significant distortion of a posteriori conditional density is suspected. A simulation based statistical analysis tool is developed to characterize the nonlinear diffusion process. The statistical analysis results indicate that the diffusion process preserves the symmetry and unimodality of initial probability density shape state variables, and provide the basis for applicability of an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). An EKF is designed for the AHSV air-data system and the air data estimation capabilities are demonstrated.

To address the problems caused by the strong coupling of an airbreathing hypersonic vehicle's airframe and propulsion to the integrated control system design, an integrated airframe-propulsion model is established, and the coupling characteristics between the aircraft and engine are analyzed. First, the airframe-propulsion integration model is established based on the typical nonlinear longitudinal dynamical model of an air-breathing hypersonic vehicle and the one-dimensional dual-mode scramjet model. Thrust, moment, angle of attack, altitude, and velocity are used as transfer variables between the aircraft model and the engine model. The one-dimensional scramjet model can accurately reflect the working state of the engine and provide data to support the coupling analysis. Second, owing to the static instability of the aircraft model, the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller of the aircraft is designed to ensure attitude stability and height tracking. Finally, the coupling relationship between the aircraft and the engine is revealed through simulation examples. The interaction between vehicle attitude and engine working condition is analyzed, and the influence of vehicle attitude on engine safety is considered. When the engine is in a critical working state, the attitude change of the aircraft will not affect the engine safety without considering coupling, whereas when coupling is considered, the attitude change of the aircraft may cause the engine unstart, which demonstrates the significance of considering coupling characteristics.

공기 흡입식 극초음속 비행체인 스크램제트의 공력 데이터를 기반으로 하여 꼬리날개 각도와 발생추력을 제어 입력으로 가지는 PID 기반 제어기를 설계했다. 일정한 비행 동압을 가지는 상승궤적과 순항 이후 목표지점을 타격하는 궤적을 기준으로 입력하여 해당 궤적을 추종하는 비행 시뮬레이션을 수행했다. 시뮬레이션 결과에 대해서 초기 상승궤적과 순항 궤적에 대해 비행체 모델에 요구되는 추력을 계산하여 수소 연료 이중 모드 스크램제트 연소기에 요구되는 연료 유량 분석을 위한 연소해석을 진행했다. 본 연구의 연소해석은 독립적으로 개발된 흡입구, 연소기, 노즐, 외부 공력 모델을 통합한 모델에 대해 진행되어 공기 흡입식 극초음속 비행체 통합 설계에 대한 기반을 마련했다.

본 연구에서는 항공유가 극초음속 비행체용 능동냉각시스템의 냉원으로 사용되면서 흡열분해된 후의 연소특성을 확인하는 연구의 일환으로, 흡열분해 모사연료에 대한 층류화염 전파속도를 측정하였다. 흡열분해 모사연료 2종(SF-1, 2)을 제조하고 분젠버너 시험장치를 제작하여 층류화염속도를 측정한 결과 기준연료(RF)와 비교해 보면 전체적으로 높은 당량비에서 화염전파속도가 빠르게 나타나고 있으며, 특히 SF-1이 SF-2 및 RF보다 훨씬 높은 당량비에서 최대 속도를 가짐을 확인하였다.
