Abstract

Each weapon system's muzzle velocity can be used as basic data for operating accurate automatic firing control system. Even among the same kind of ammunition, despite taking into consideration various battlefield parameters, irregular performance causes difficulties in obtaining accurate muzzle velocity data. In this study, pressure in the gun barrel was measured, the experimental relationship between chamber pressure and the projectile's base pressure was found, and a method of obtaining muzzle velocity was researched. Through this method, data regarding muzzle velocity is offered that corrects irregular performance.

각종 무기체계에서 포구속도는 보다 정확한 사격제원을 산출하기 위한 자동사격통제시스템의 기초 데이터로 활용될 수 있다. 그러나 전장환경의 여러 변수들을 고려한다 해도 동일한 탄약(추진제)에서 발생하는 불규칙적인 성능특성은 정확한 포구속도 데이터를 얻는 것을 곤란하게 한다. 본 논문에서는 강내 압력을 측정하고 약실압력과 탄저압력의 실험적 관계식을 구하여 포구속도를 산출하는 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 이러한 방법을 통해 추진제의 불규칙적인 성능특성을 보정한 포구속도를 얻음으로써 보다 정확한 데이터를 제공할 수 있으리라 생각한다.
