비행탄의 종말속도증대를 위하여 고체램제트를 이용하는 개념은 현재 세계적으로 여러나라에서 연구 중에 있다. Solid Fuel Ramjet Propulsion(고체연료 렘제트 추진)은 로켓추진에 비하여 월등히 높은 비추력을 가지며 구조적으로 매우 간단하여 탄의 사거리 및 평균속도를 증대시키는 좋은 수단으로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 간단한 구조에도 불구하고 고체렘제트의 작동은 매우 다양한 물리적 현상이 연관되므로 필요한 성능을 얻기 위해서는 이들의 상호 작용을 고려하여 설계의 최적화 및 성능 예측이 필요하다.

가스발생기와 같이 로켓모터에서 추력이 아닌 기체압 형태의 에너지를 일정한 시간동안 얻고자 하는 경우, 로켓모터의 크기 및 추진제 충전율을 고려하여 그레인 형태를 단면 연소형으로 선택할 수 있다. 단면 연소형 그레인을 가진 로켓모터는 그레인의 연소시, 일찍 연소된 부분의 라이너가 추진제 연소 화염에 노출되면서 표면부터 서서히 분해가 진행되며, 분해물질의 일부는 추진제에 포함된 산화제 성분에 의해 산화되어 기체화 될 수 있다. 산화제 성분이 충분치 않은 경우에는 고체 입자 형태로 추진제 연소 기체와 함께 배출되며, 이는 일차연기(primary smoke)의 일종으로 볼 수 있다. 가스 발생기에서 얻고자 하는 기체는 고체 입자가 포함되지 않은 깨끗한 기체형태인 경우가 대부분이며, 따라서, 무연 라이너 및 내열재의 연구가 필요하다.

The hybrid rocket has been known for over 50 years. It is safe and cheap but wasn't widely used for the deficit of low regression rate. However, the hybrid rocket propulsion system will replace a lot of fields of missiles, rockets and propulsion systems of launch vehicles with new development of paraffin based solid fuel composition

Bullet impact tests for two solid rocket motors were performed and its results were compared and analyzed. One was loaded with the existing propellant with decreased weight content of burning rate catalyst and added high density additives to improve mechanical properties and the other was loaded with the existing propellant with decreased weight content of burning rate catalyst to improve its insensitivity as well as to maintain the ballistic performance. The composite cases were used for both motors.

Detail flow structure in a large solid rocket motor with two inhibitors has been investigated using 3D Large Eddy Simulation and Proper Orthogonal Decomposition(POD) analysis. Vortex shedding frequencies periodically occurred by inhibitors are coupled with flow acoustics induced by the impinging of vorticity on nozzle head. As a result of 3D analysis, it was observed that the nozzle exit flow causes roll-torques from the vortex being decomposed in unbalanced shape for the impinging of vorticity on the nozzle head.

When someone measuring for pressure of a Solid Rocket Motor(SRM) at Static Firing Test, generally, used with pressure tube to be filled in Oil. But, if you used pressure tube with oil, you were worried about possibility of spilled oil when you measured pressure in SRM at high altitude environment. Because it usually connected at ignitor. In this paper, We described how to make a pressure tube without oil and matters to be attended to design it.

Recently, due to the enormous cost for sending a satellite into an orbit, small and more reliable satellites have been more demanded. An introduction of new binders(HTPB, GAP) and new oxidizers made great improvements of the large thrust modulation. In order to make cost reduction, one prefers to the low melting temperature thermoplastic propellant reforming the manufacturing process dramatically. Solid propellant rockets have been had a problem of the injection accuracy into orbit, but PBS(Post Boost Stage) using a liquid mono-propellant improves the injection accuracy. This paper also gives the direction of the advanced nozzle materials and the motor case.

Vortex generation mechanism by inhibitor in a solid rocket motor have been investigated by 3D Large Eddy Simulation turbulent model. Most of the result of the present study are in good agreement with experimental data and previous numerical calculation. Vortex generation and breakdown behind inhibitor are periodically observed between inhibitor and nozzle head by flow-acoustic coupling mechanism. Vortex generation frequency is the same as the second-mode frequency in the motor. The roll shape vortex generation behind inhibitor induces non-uniform flow field at the nozzle entrance and its throat.

The flowfield in a solid rocket motor was simulated at the wall-injection test model, which has a fin-slot grain and submerged nozzle, and visualized by a smoke-wire. The high speed CCD camera captured the visualized images around the nozzle inlet through the grain center port. The vortical tube structure and circumferential flow patterns at the nozzle throat were visualized. The radial momentum transfer caused by the shear-interactions of slot-outlet flow, fin-base flow and grain port flow from upstream worked as the source of these phenomena.

The propellants used in the gas generator of the ducted rocket are fuel-rich propellants, which contain an excessive amount of metal fuel and a small amount of oxidizing agent compared to general solid rocket propellants. In this paper, boron powder and MgAl(Magnesium-Aluminium alloy) were applied to produce fuel-rich propellants. The optimum formulation was determined by characterizing these metal fuel-rich propellants. Analysis of combustion products in the gas generators confirmed that the fuel-rich propellants containing fine boron powder itself instead of boron-bead could be useful in gas generators.
