Combustion Test Facility for Liquid Rocket Engine using kerosene and liquid oxygen has been developed for the purpose of cooling and performance study. Test engine of thrust 0.5 KN(design thrust) is tested to confirm the normal operation. Therefore, water-cooled firing tests using kerosene engine with injectors of fuel-centered coaxial type are conducted. With the viewpoint of characteristic velocity, and specific impulse at sea level, and chamber pressure on OF mixture ratio are analyzed.

Hot firing performance test of hydrazine decomposition catalyst used for monopropellant thruster of satellite and launch vehicle was performed on the ground. A test equipment for hot firing performance measurement of catalyst test was developed in collaboration with Hanwha Corp., and the catalyst firing performance were tested with the equipment. After a reaction delay time, a catalyst activity and a granule stability were measured for 2 times, satisfactory results were obtained such as 25msec, 2%, $704^{\circ}C$ for each test items on the average. In addition, the current development status of domestic prototype catalyst and its decomposition performance test results are presented.

A performance evaluation is made in terms of thrust, impulse bit. and specific impulses for a set of mono-propellant hydrazine thrusters producing 0.95 lbf of nominal thrust at an inlet pressure of 350 psia. With a brief description on the hot-firing test configuration and procedures. a typical data obtained from steady-state firing mode is given directly showing the variational behavior of propellant supply pressure, mass flow rate, vacuum condition, and thrust. The performance features are successfully compared to the reference criteria of 1-lbf standard mono-propellant rocket engine. Additionally. a statistical inter-thruster treatment is concisely depicted for the justification of selected thrusters as a grouped member of flight model for spacecraft propulsion system.

A study on the variation of combustion performance by oxidizer/fuel ratio was conducted. Shower head type injector was used. Injector propelled by liquid kerosene and liquid hydrogen peroxide. The designed operation condition for thrust and combustion pressure were 200N and 10bar. It is found that optimum oxidizer/fuel ratio.

액체로켓엔진은 인젝터, 추력실, 노즐 등으로 구성되어 있으며, 이들 구성요소 중에서 연소성능과 연소안정성에 가장 지배적인 요소는 인젝터이다. 본 연구에서는 액체로켓엔진에 사용될 인젝터의 F-O-O-F 충돌형 Uni-element 인젝터를 설계하였으며 특히, F-O-O-F 충돌형 인젝터는 두 단계의 충돌과정으로 구성되는데, 첫단계 충돌은 산화제와 연료 오리피스의 분무로 충돌이 이루어져 Liquid Sheet가 형성되며 다음 단계로는 이러한 양쪽의 Liquid Sheet가 서로 충돌하여 미립화가 진행되는 두단계 충돌과정으로 이루어지게 된다. 그러므로 인젝터의 가공 정밀도가 매우 높아야 하며 인젝터 오리피스 크기나 각도 등의 어느 하나라도 정밀도가 낮게 가공된다면 연소성능과 연소안정성에 심각한 영향을 주게 된다.

A design plan was proposed for determining combustor configuration of regenerative- cooled liquid rocket engine in the process of preliminary design. Rocket performance and regenerative cooling results were calculated using the properties of combustion gas estimated in CEA. For required thrust, chamber pressure, atmosphere pressure and propellant mixture ratio the mass flow rate of propellants and combustor performance were predicted by one-dimensional and experimental correlations. Finally, determinable plan for the contour of combustor were presented through Rao nozzle design method.

In order to predict the performance of the small-scale Polyethylene-GOX hybrid rocket motor, a typical internal ballistic model was proposed. The model adopted for the present study employed the lumped scale of chamber pressure so that the pressure-time history resulted from the present model was comparable to the test results.

The critical component of combustor having high combustion efficiency for high performance liquid rocket engine is injector. The results of design and hot firing tests of six sub-scale combustors which have respectively an impinging type injector(1ea.), an bi-propellant swirl closed injector(1ea.), and hi-propellant swirl mixed injector(4ea.) were described in this paper. The combustion test were successfully performed. The combustion efficiency have higher value than predicted value and high frequency combustion instability does not occur.

초임계 유체의 고유한 물리적 특성변화와 난류유동을 결합하여 성능을 높이는 데 활용하고 있는 가장 대표적인 시스템 중의 하나는 연소기이다. 이때 연료와 산화제의 연소반응은 저압조건과 다른 고유한 특성을 가지고 있어 기존의 연소모델에 의해서는 정확한 분석이 어렵게 된다. 따라서 초임계 압력조건에 대한 연소과정을 분석할 수 있는 연소모델이 필요하고 이러한 연소과정이 난류유동조건에서 발생하기 때문에 최근 많은 연구가 초임계 난류연소모델 개발에 집중되어 왔다. 이 글에서는 특히 액체로켓엔진 관련 초임계 연소모델 개발 분야의 연구동향을 살펴보고자 한다.
