Abstract

Generally, combustion instability is generated by the mutual coupling between the heat release and the acoustic pressure in the combustor. On the occasion, the acoustic pressure generates the oscillation of the mass flow rate of propellant injected from injector, and this oscillation again affects combustion in the combustor. So, the dynamic characteristics of the injector have been studied to control combustion instability using injector itself in Russia from 1970's. In order to study injector dynamics, a mechanical pulsator for forced pressure pulsation is produced and the method to quantify the mass flow rate of the propellant that is oscillating at the exit of the injector is developed. With the pulsator and the method, pulsating values of the mass flow rate, pressure, liquid film thickness, and axial velocity generated at the exit of the simplex swirl injector are measured in real time. And phase-amplitude characteristics of each parameter are analyzed using these pulsating values acquired at the exit of the simplex swirl injector.

연소불안정 현상은 연소기 내에서 발생되는 열해리와 음압간의 상호 커플링에 의해 발생된다. 이 때, 음압은 인젝터에서 분무되는 추진제 유량에 섭동을 발생시키고, 섭동된 유량은 다시 연소에 영향을 주 게 된다. 따라서, 연소에 큰 영향을 미치는 인젝터를 이용하여 연소불안정 현상을 제어하기 위한 인젝터 동특성 연구가 1970년대부터 러시아에서 시작되었다. 인젝터의 동특성 연구를 위해 인위적인 압력 섭동을 주기 위한 장치를 제작하였고, 인젝터 출구에서 발생되는 유량 섭동을 측정하기 위한 기법을 개발하였다. 압력섭동 발생장치와 유량섭동 측정방법을 이용하여 압력섭동에 의해 단일 스월 인젝터 출구에서 발생되는 유량 및 압력, 액막두께, 축방향 속도 등의 섭동 값을 실시간으로 획득하였고, 이를 통해 각 변수들의 위상-진폭 특성을 파악하였다.
