Abstract
A MOV(Main Oxidizer shutoff Valve) controls the flow rate of liquid oxygen into the rocket combustor by opening and shutting operations piloted by a pneumatic force. In order to improve the effective design for sealing parts of poppet and piston assemblies, the poppet assembly has been designed to be just contacted with the piston assembly. However, to avoid a gap at the poppet/piston contact surface and to evaluate the MOV operating performance, an analyze on the force balance during the closing motion have been performed. For the accuracy of the analysis, the friction forces and the hydraulic forces have been respectively obtained by experiments and CFD analysis. Through the analysis, some important design parameters such as the spring constant, poppet friction and orifice size in the force balance have been introduced and the required operation performance of the MOV has been proved feasible.
