Rupture disks are a kind of safety device in high pressure equipment and they are used to control rupture pressure in the solid rocket motor. In this paper, a series of rupture experiments was performed using rupture disks made of AISI 316L and rupture pressure of rupture disks was calculated through various assumptions in relation between elasto-plastic material properties and true stress-strain curve. Experiment and FEA indicated rupture pressure is determined by size of rupture disks. As a result of elasto-plastic analysis, only multi-linear stress-strain curve was able to calculate meaningful estimations. Experimental results also showed rupture location are decided by the size of rupture disks. Experimental and FEA results will be applied to control rupture pressure of disks.

복합재 연소관의 구조적 건전성 평가 방법을 개발하기 위하여 표준 평가용 시편의 수압 시험 중, 연소관으로부터 방출되는 음향방출(acoustic emission: AE) 신호를 측정 장비를 이용하여 신호 처리함으로써 시편이 파괴되기 전, 대략적인 시편의 파열 위치 및 일정 압력 유지상태에서 hit rate 양상에 의한 건전성 평가 방법을 제시하였다. 데이터의 분석 기법 향상을 위하여 음향방출 데이터를 시간 및 센서별로 분류하는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 수압 시험을 낮은 압력 단계부터 높은 압력 단계까지 일정 압력 유지 상태(load-hold)에서 발생한 hit 수와 1분간 유지한 후 발생되는 hit rate(hit/sec)의 값의 크고 작음이 복합재 압력 용기의 결함수의 증감으로 나타났으며, 이로부터 복합재 압력 용기의 파열 압력과의 상관관계 및 건전성을 예측할 수 있었다. 복합재 압력 용기의 파열 위치는 energy rate(energy/sec) 측정값을 분석하여 예측하였으며, 파열 압력의 30∼50%에서 가능하였다.

Burst pressure of right circular tube is predicted using analytic method, and asymptotic instability pressure of circular tube with roundness defect is found using FEM. Burst tests of nearly right circular tube specimens are carried out and predictions are compared with burst pressures and their accuracy is discussed. It is confirmed that FEM is useful for prediction of burst pressure.

Dome shape design method of filament wound (FW) composite pressure vessel, which can create various dome shape with fixed boss opening, was suggested. And, the performance indices (PV/W) for composite pressure vessel with same boss opening but different dome shape were investigated by finite element analysis (FEA) and hydro-test. The FEA showed good agreement with test results for burst pressure. Generally, as the dome shape of pressure vessel was changed to flat dome, the inner volume is increased and the burst pressure is decreased. In the case of above ${\rho}_o$=0.54, the performance index showed decreased value due to the low burst pressure. However, at ${\rho}_o$=0.35, the dome shape change brings not significant reduction of burst pressure and performance index.

To establish nondestructive test method for aerospace composite materials, various composite specimens were tested and analyzed using acoutic emission. The hit rate of acoustic emission closely was rotated with crack initiation and propagation. This report also presents defection capability of crack initiation pressure, initial crack active location, and crack propagation using acoustic emission.

To develop reliable dual pulse rocket motor, vacuum ignition performance at high altitude and design stability for rupture pressure of the Pulse Separation Device(PSD) are required. In this study, rupture pressure analysis method for the membrane type PSD of the dual pulse rocket motor was developed. The PSD rupture pressure formulation was derived from strain-pressure relationships. The PSD vacuum rupture test apparatus and the PSD 1 second vacuum ignition test apparatus were developed, which can simulate the high altitude vacuum environment. Rupture pressure of PSD was analyzed by conducting the PSD vacuum rupture test, and design values of PSD were derived. Finally, vacuum ignition performance and rupture pressure of the designed PSD were validated with PSD 1 second vacuum ignition test.

During hydroproof test of composite pressure vessel, acoustic emission signal was measured and analyzed to evaluate structural integrity of composite motor case. When pressure was held for 1 min. at constant pressure from low pressure level to high pressure level, the pattern of hit rate of good composite pressure vessel is increased with higher value than that of bad composite pressure vessel. This report also presents detection possibility of burst location approximately in the range of 25∼36％ of burst pressure using energy rate. In case that it is difficult to detect burst location of composite motor case, it is possible to detect burst location, i.e. structurally weak location of composite pressure vessel with applying same pressure lower than maximum expected operating pressure(MEOP) repeatedly.

High enthalpy test facilities, such as a shock tunnel, are to be operated at the specific pressure ratio according to the desired test condition. A metallic diaphragm is machined or a forced rupture device is used to open it at a specific pressure ratio. The diaphragm opening procedure takes several hundred microseconds including rupture and deformation. This process is expected to affect the test conditions. In this study, numerical simulation was performed for different materials, thicknesses, and opening ratios. And the characteristics of shock wave generation and the stagnation condition in the tube are investigated. Results show that the final opening ratio and rupturing procedure directly affect the speed of a shock wave, stagnation pressure, and test time.

국내에서는 시도되지 않았던 조립식 맨드렐 및 prepreg 제작 방식을 적용하여 filament winding machine으로 압력 용기(STEB)를 제작, 음향 방출 측정 장비 및 strain gage 등을 부착한 수압 시험으로 압력용기의 구조적 건전성 예측 및 파열 압력을 측정하여 성능을 분석하였다. 동일한 winding pattern 및 조건하에 prepreg winding과 wet winding 방식을 적용하여 제작한 압력 용기의 성능을 비교하였고, prepreg winding의 설계 조건, 공정 변화를 통해 제작한 압력 용기의 파열 압력 및 형태를 분석하였다. 이러한 winding 조건들에 따라 제작된 압력용기는 최종적으로 PR(Performance ratio) 값을 산출하고, 이를 통하여 prepreg 제작 방식의 장단점, 제작에 필요한 설계 조건 및 기초 자료 등을 고찰하여 보았다.
