There exist a lot of factors and restrictions for the design of solid rocket motors like burning rate, of solid propellant, demanded thrust, chamber pressure, diameter, length, weight and acceleration. For the optimization of these factors and restrictions, integrated design software for internal/external ballistic analysis was developed and verified by the performance test of solid rocket motors.

We developed an integrated design system for a solid rocket motors. We can do a conceptual design of a solid rocket motor easily and quickly with this system. It consists of four modules, or, size design, structure design, grain design and performance analysis module. Size design module determines the lengths and diameters of some major parts, which results in fixing the whole size of a motor. Structure design module has many master models, which enables a designer can do a conceptual design of almost parts of motor structures. Grain design module can design a solid fuel according to the result of structure design. Finally performance analysis module verifies the proposed design with the output from grain design module.

우리 나라에서 고체추진기관에 대하여 관심을 갖고 연구를 시작한 것은 1970년대 중반 국방과학연구소를 중심으로 이루어 졌으며, 그후 추진기관의 설계와 제조분야에서 괄목할만한 기술축적을 이루어 왔다. 고체추진제 그레인의 성형기술도 이에 발맞추어 상당한 기술발전이 있었다. 앞으로 우리 나라도 우주산업 진출이 가시화 되고 있으며 이에 따른 우주발사체 추진제 성형기술도 선진국 수준의 기술 개발이 요구되는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 추진기관 제조 기술중 중요한 기술인 고체 추진제 그레인 성형용 코아 설계를 중심으로한 그 동안의 개발내용과 향후 발전 방향에 대하여 기술하였다.

A Possibility of combustion instability on longitudinal mode has a high level at large scale of L/D. Solid propellant has a metal particle and a grain of control to pressure oscillation. Solid rocket motor in slotted-tube grain controls pressure oscillation of longitudinal mode. Slotted-tube grain restrains longitudinal 1st pressure oscillation. But cavity volume of aft. insulation ablation amplifies 2nd pressure o scillation by vortext shedding. A study has suppressed combustion instability and vortex shedding by modified 4 slotted tube solid rocket motor design.

Burning rate of a propellent is an essential factor when designing a propulsion system. In order to come up with burning rate, first we need to design and build propellent grain to get neutral pressure curve. Then check the pressure with ground test and calculate the burning rate using burning rate equation. This burning rate is then compared to the burning rate of a propellent which was resulted from making a standardized specimen and combusting it using a strand burner. An accurate burning rate is calculated after comparing those two burning rates. For this study, compact propulsion system was designed, produced, tested and analyzed in order to get burning rates, an essential factor in propulsion system design, in an effective way.

The depressurization rate in a thrust variable solid rocket motor is the major factor that has the greatest influence on the thrust termination performance. In this study, the depressurization rates range of model solid rocket motor was identified and major factors affecting the depressurization rate were found. It is important for actual system design to understand the depressurization rate of the system that can satisfy the target performance as well as the extinguishing characteristics of the solid propellant. The methodology for obtaining the depressurization rate model in this study is considered to be applicable to the optimal design of the thrust terminable propulsion system.

실제 추진기관에서 비추력 성능에 미치는 열/유동현상은 이상 유동(ideal flow)과는 달리, 추진기관의 특성에 따라 다양한 열/유동손실이 나타나며, 연소시험 시에는 이러한 성능 손실 인자들이 복합적으로 작용하여 나타나는 추력이 측정된다. 따라서 임의의 추진기관을 새롭게 성능 설계할 때에 부딪히는 문제중의 하나는 추력 손실 양을 정량화 시키는 일이다. 그런데 고체 추진기관은 복잡한 물리적인 현상들이 복합되어 작동되기 때문에 lump parameter로 간단히 추력 손실을 예측하는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다.(중략)

Solid rocket propulsion systems are generally used for tactical missiles due to the structural and operational simplicity. Nevertheless, various kinds of design factors including outer diameter, length, weight, loading efficiency of propellant grain effects to thrust performance. Dual thrust is beneficial to range extension and terminal velocity increasement. But loading efficiency becomes low in case to obtain dual thrust performance by burning surface control. So, It is predicted to be reasonable to obtain dual thrust performance with high/low burning rate propellants. This study is on internal ballistic analysis and ground test to confirm dual thrust performance.

This paper presents a design of solid rocket motor with high length to diameter applied composite propellant. Solid rocket motor with high L/D ratio can be generated erosive burning and combustion instability on longitudinal mode. Especially, Erosive burning can effectively prolong the initial pressure spike in some star grain motors. That is, the study shows design of grain, internal ballistics and structural analysis in order to perform system requirements.
