The dual pulse rocket motor is a pressure vessel containing two pulse grains separated by a pulse separation device such as a fragile bulkhead. One of the important things in this systems is case insulation design using the excellent materials in the 1st stage pulse motor. We investigated manufacturing process of fabric/EPDM chamber insulations in order to protect the 1st stage pulse motor case with high intensity gas flow. Simulation motor connected with extension tube having FRP disc was designed to study ablation characteristics of insulation.

We developed the carbon fabric/EPDM chamber insulation in order to protect motor case with high intensity gas flow. A six-inch simulation motor connected with extension tube was designed to test ablation characteristic of insulation. High intensity gas flow was induced by a FRP disc with hole between motor and extension tube. After ground test, ablation depth of the carbon fabric/EPDM insulation was decreased compared to another insulations after ground static test.
