초록

한국형발사체 3단의 무추력 비행구간에서는 추력기 자세제어시스템에 의해 롤, 피치, 요 축에 대한 3축을 제어하고, 추력 비행구간에서는 롤 축에 대한 제어를 추력기 자세제어시스템에 의해 수행한다. 발사체 자세제어시스템으로 사용되는 추력기의 추진제는 하이드라진과 같은 전통적인 독성 추진제가 주로 사용되어 왔으나 최근에는 친환경적인 ADN 및 HAN 등과 같은 무독성(청정) 추진제가 많이 연구되고 있다. 특히, 과산화수소 추진제는 독성이 없고 제작 및 시험평가에 있어서 상대적으로 저렴해서 독성 추진제의 대안 중 하나로 떠오르고 있다. 본 논문에서는 한국형발사체 3단의 자세제어를 위해 개발 중인 50N 급 과산화수소 단일추진제 추력기 자세제어시스템의 설계내용 및 시제품 제작, 시험결과를 기술하였다.

The third stage of the KSLV-II is equipped with the reaction control system that performs three axis-control during non-thrust coasting phase and performs a roll axis control during thrust phase. Toxic propellants such as hydrazine have been used for conventional rocket propulsions, however, recently, more studies have been conducted on the use of non-toxic eco-friendly propellants such as ADN and HAN. Especially, hydrogen peroxide has received a growing focus as an emerging propellant. It is considered an alternative of the toxic propellants because of economic advantage in producing the system, conducting operation test, and evaluation of the test result. In this paper, we describes the design, prototype, testing and evaluation of the test results with the 50 N-level hydrogen peroxide monopropellant thruster system which is currently under development.
