초록

본 연구에서는 Whitmore와 Chandler의 모델을 기반으로 아산화질소를 사용하는 blow-down 방식의 하이브리드 로켓의 유량제어를 통한 추력제어 및 내탄도 해석에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 유량제어가 포함된 아산화질소의 탱크 내 거동에 대한 예측을 수행하였으며, 해석결과와 실험결과의 일치도가 상당히 높음을 확인하였다. 또한, 추력제어 내탄도 해석의 검증을 위하여 500 N급 하이브리드 로켓을 이용한 지상연소시험을 수행하였으며, 연소실 압력 및 추력 모두 실험결과와 해석결과가 상당히 일치함을 확인하여 추력제어 성능을 예측할 수 있는 모델링 기법을 제시하였다.

In this study, a thrust modulation through oxidizer mass flow rate control and internal ballistic analysis based on Whitmore and Chandlers' models was conducted on a blow-down hybrid rocket using nitrous oxide. The tank pressure prediction considering mass flow rate control of the self-pressuring oxidizer was conducted, and the results showed good agreements with experimental results. In order to verify the internal ballistic analysis, a ground combustion test using a 500 N class hybrid rocket was conducted, and it was confirmed that the experimental results and the analytical results were quite consistent in the chamber pressure and thrust, thereby, a modeling technique capable of predicting the thrust modulation performance is proposed.
