KSR-III 과학로켓 개발사업의 한 분야인 추진기관 연구에 있어 가장 중심이 되는 것은 제작된 연소실의 시험/검증이라고 할 수 있다. 여러 단계의 시험 가운데에서도 엔진의 특성을 제 1차 적으로 파악하고, 시험 대상물인 엔진을 스탠드에 장착하여 시험이 가능토록 하기 위해서 모사 추진제(물) 혹은 실제 추진제를 사용하여 수력학적 특성을 알아내는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이를 위해 engineering model 엔진(이하 EM)에 대하여 액체 산소 배관은 액체 산소를, 스탠드 사정상 케로신 배관은 액체 질소를 사용한 비연소 시험을 수행하였으며, 이러한 일련의 비연소 시험을 통해 산화제 및 연료 매니폴드 각각에 대한 차압과 매니폴드를 채우는 시간을 측정하여 점화 사이클을 정의할 수 있었다.(중략)

The ignition characteristics of liquid rocket engine thrust chambers which have been developed by domestic technology were analyzed through hot-firing tests. Thrust chambers used in hot-firing tests have different characteristics in terms of the injector for ignition, film cooling method and the position of the oxidizer inlet. Also, these thrust chambers used their respective startup sequences. Analysis results showed that according to temperature profiles of the oxidizer manifold, low frequency fluctuation was appeared in ignition area. This low frequency fluctuation didn't give rise to violent malfunction of the thrust chamber, but the continuous observation as a concern parameter in the side of interfaces with engine system and launch vehicle should be demanded.

A catalyst ignitor of small thrust engine using hydrogen peroxide and kerosene was designed and fabricated, which confirmed mass flow rate for design pressure through the water cold-flow test in this study. In order to investigate ignition performance, it was changed that mixture ratio for kerosene mass flow rate in a position which heat of hydrogen peroxide decomposition comes to a steady state. And we confirmed stable ignition property in a wide range of mixture ratio.

본 연구는 유도탄 비행시험시에 연소관의 스커트와 날개 장착용 브라켓에 작용하는 공력하중과 연소관에 내압이 동시에 작용하는 추진기관에 대하여 구조 해석하였다. 추진기관의 스커트부 및 브라켓부의 공력하중은 3차원적으로 작용하기 때문에 대칭성을 이용한 $180^{\circ}C$3차원 구조 해석을 수행하여 비행시험, 수압시험, 지상시험 모드에 대하여 응력 수준을 비교하였다. 해석 결과 3가지 모드의 최대 등가응력은 거의 같으며, 비행시험시 공력하중이 앞마개부에 미치는 영향은 최대 등 가응력의 6%이내로 상당히 작았다. 수압시험 모드와 지상시험 모드의 실험치와 해석치를 비교한 결과 정확한 해석을 위해서는 점화기를 모델링과 점화기와 연소관, 브라켓과 연소관에 접촉요소의 적용, 3차원 비선형 해석등 보다 상세한 해석이 필요함을 알 수 있었다.

Firing test of the fuel grain for solid fuel ramjet with additives and ignition support material was conducted. Fuel grain consist of HTPB mixed with AP particle 15 wt.%, Boron particle 5 wt.%. To cause the short ignition delay, ignition support consist of $NC/BKNO_3$ and composite propellant was coated to the fuel grain. An oxidant gas having a controlled temperature, pressure and oxygen composition close to the air condition in the ramjet combustor was supplied using the Ethanol blended $H_2O_2$ gas generator. Gas was set to flow at a mass flow rate of 150 g/s and mass flux of $200kg/m^2s$ in the grain port. Through the test, ignition support operated well and ignition delay of 0.5. During the test, stable chamber pressure with 8 bar and high combustion efficiency of 0.86 was confirmed.

A hybrid rocket engine capable of thrust throttling and underwater-working was developed for the underwater high-speed vehicle propulsion system. The hybrid rocket engine was designed and made by two types of ground test motor and underwater working motors. An engine performance was verified by the ground tests with the ground test motor and in the case of underwater motors the ground tests and underwater tests were performed. For the underwater operation a two-stage ignition system was adopted and a rupture disc was installed at the end of nozzle for a water-tight just before an ignition. Successful ignition and propulsion were confirmed in the underwater test with the final selected double rupture disc.

고체추진제의 첨가제 또는 연료로써 주로 사용되는 알루미늄 단일 입자 연소시험 장비를 제작하고 연소 실험을 수행하였다. 산화 알루미늄으로 피복된 금속입자는 약 30~100 ${\mu}m$의 크기를 사용하였다. 단일 입자는 Electrodynamic Balance (EDB) 방법에 의해 공중 부양된 상태로, 중력에 의한 영향이 배제되어 금속입자 고정용 또는 측정용 장치들의 접촉에 의한 열손실을 제거시켜 실험 정확도를 높였다. Standard Hyperbolic Electrodynamic Levitator (SHEL) 내에서 부양된 입자에 $CO_2$ 레이저를 사용하여 점화시킨 후, 입자로부터 방사되는 열복사를 이용한 two wavelength pyrometry를 적용하여 알루미늄 입자 크기에 따른 연소시간, 평균 화염온도, 점화온도, 점화시간을 획득하였으며, 단일 알루미늄 입자의 점화-연소특성을 평가하였다.

This paper describes the results of study on reaction of insensitive igniter in which a pyrosensor is automatically sensing the rate of risk of fire or explosion of solid rocket motor exposed to an unexpected fire and makes the rocket motor burn itself safely. The Slow Cook Off(SCO) test following the regulation of MIL-STD-2105D was carried out with a rocket motor loaded with HTPB propellant, in which a thermal pyrosensor igniter was installed. The auto-ignition temperature measured was approximately $140^{\circ}C$ and it corresponded to Type V(Burning) reaction in SCO test, while the temperature by Kissinger equation was calculated to be $165.5^{\circ}C$.

A pyrotechnic igniter with a relatively simple configuration was developed to secure the stable and reliable ignition of the gas generator in space launch vehicles. It was designed not only to provide a sufficient heat flux for the propellant ignition but also to ensure a structural safety under the conditions of very high temperatures and pressures. The burning tests of the igniters have been performed to decide several design parameters, and consequently the performance tests have proved that the pyrotechnic igniter developed in this study meets the design requirements.

A small high altitude test facility has been developed to investigate ignition performance of a small gas-turbine combustor under high altitude conditions. Supersonic diffusers and a heat exchanger were used to perform a low pressure and a low temperature condition, respectively. Experimental results showed that the low pressure environment could be controlled by upstream pressure of primary nozzle flow and low temperature environment by mixture ratio of cooled air and ambient air. Ignition performance tests were performed to verify the performance of the facility under simulated high altitude conditions. Conclusively, it was proven that the test facility could be used for ignition performance test of a small gas-turbine combustor under high altitude condition of approximately 6,100m.
