Abstract

In this study, numerical simulations were performed for steady and unsteady state characteristics of length effects on linear pintle nozzles using the overset grid method. Nozzles and pintles are created separately by an auto grid generation program to use the overset grid method. Appropriate turbulent models and numerical methods are selected for the validation of simulations. Pintle shapes are chosen from five types, with differences in the ratio of length and diameter. The longer the pintle length, the greater the thrust and thrust coefficient. The chamber pressure tendency of steady-state and unsteady-state are different for various pintle velocities. The thrust of the nozzle exit responds to changes in the nozzle throat in the unsteady-state, and the speed of pressure propagation wave generated by movement of the pintle is considered to predict the major factor of performance.

본 연구에서는 추력조절용 핀틀 노즐의 길이비에 따른 정상상태와 비정상상태 특성을 파악하기 위해 수치해석을 수행하였다. 노즐과 핀틀의 영역은 분리하여 격자를 생성하고 중첩격자기법을 사용하였다. 핀틀 형상은 길이비에 따라 5가지로 선택하였고, 정상상태 해석결과 핀틀의 길이가 길수록 추력과 추력계수가 높게 나타났다. 비정상상태 해석의 경우 핀틀의 속도에 따라서 연소실 압력 경향이 달라지며 추력과 유동구조에 영향을 미친다. 노즐 출구에서의 추력은 노즐목 단면적 변화에 빠른 응답특성을 보이며, 추력과 추력계수 등 성능 주요 인자들의 예측시 핀틀의 구동 속도와 핀틀 거동에 의한 연소실 압력파의 전달속도를 고려해야 한다.
