Abstract

In this paper, a subminiature solid rocket motor(SSRM) was designed to develop a miniature smart-bullet and the designed propellant grain was made of thermoplastic propellant for production convenience of inner shape. The internal ballistics analysis and ground test were performed to investigate the performance of SSRM. And a numerical simulation was carried out to obtain basic data on the design of safety distance between the nozzle outlet and a gunner, the temperature distribution of exhaust gas was analyzed by comparing a numerical simulation and the results of IR camera.

초소형 스마트탄의 개발을 위해 초소형 추진기관을 설계하고 그레인은 내부 형상의 제작 용이성을 고려하여 열가소성 추진제로 제작하였다. 추진기관의 성능분석을 위해 지상연소시험과 내탄도 해석이 수행되었다. 그리고 사수와 추진기관 간 안전거리 설계에 대한 기초자료를 획득하기 위하여 수치해석을 수행하였으며, 배기가스의 온도분포는 수치해석과 IR 카메라의 측정결과를 비교하여 분석되었다.
