건국대학교 연소추진 실험실에서 수행할 하이브리드 로켓 모터 연소특성 연구를 위한 실험장치를 설계하고 구성하였다. 실험장치를 제작하기 전에 기본적인 설계요구사항을 바탕으로 모터의 제작을 위한 수치코드를 작성하였다. 연소실 압력과 그레인의 형상, 산화제와 고체연료의 종류를 바탕으로 작성한 수치코드를 사용하여 로켓 모터를 설계하였다. 모터 설계코드를 통하여 세부적인 로켓모터와 노즐의 크기, 특성속도. 연소시간과 공급산화제의 유량 등을 계산하였고, 설계 전에 문헌연구와 이론을 바탕으로 일반적으로 실험실에서 사용되는 하이브리드 로켓 모터에 근접하게 설계를 진행하여 시행착오를 최소화하였다.

본 연구에서는 하이브리드로켓 모터와 고체로켓 모터를 이용하여 목표 고도 1km인 2단 로켓 설계를 수행하였다. 비행 시나리오는 총 비행시간 51.59초, 1단부 로켓 연소시간은 3초이며 연소 종료 후 3초 뒤 단 분리를 수행하여 2단부 로켓 점화가 이루어져 총 3초간 연소가 진행된다. 1단부 모터는 하이브리드로켓으로써 5port의 HDPE를 연료 그레인으로 사용하였고 $LN_2O$를 산화제로 사용하였다. 2단부 모터는 고체로켓으로 KNSB(Sorbitol/$KNO_3$)추진제를 사용하였다. 단 분리는 영전자석을 이용하여 분리하며 2단부 모터의 점화는 광학 센서와 니크롬선 점화방식을 이용하여 점화하도록 설계하였다. 비행하는 동안 AVR를 이용해 압력, 가속도, GPS 등의 자료를 수집할 수 있도록 설계하였다.

하이브리드 추진제는 연소 중 연료의 후퇴율 및 연소 면적의 변화로 인해 O/F비가 변화하므로 이로 인해 설계 및 해석에 어려움을 가지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 요구임무를 만족하는 하이브리드 로켓모터에 대한 설계를 수행하였다. 하이브리드 모터의 기초 설계를 실시하고 그 결과를 이용하여, 일정한 산화제 유량이 공급된다는 가정 하에, 연소 시 연소면적변화에 따른 O/F비 변화를 고려한 하이브리드 모터의 내탄도 해석을 실시하였으며, 그 결과를 이용하여 로켓의 외탄도 해석을 실시하였다.

In this study, basic research on the thrust control by controling oxidizer mass flow rate of a $GO_2$/PE hybrid rocket is presented. For this purpose, hybrid rocket system including oxidizer flow control system and data acquisition system was developed. To control oxidizer mass flow rate, we used needle valve with stepping motor which was controled by LabVIEW program. During the fundamental experiments, this system managed to follow the pre-programmed (20 N - 10 N - 20 N - 0 N) thrust level.

In this paper, the main cause on excitation of the combustion instability which may occur in the hybrid rocket motor with a diaphragm was studied. Hybrid rocket motor propulsion tests considering various experimental conditions such as with a diaphragm or not, a diameter of diaphragm, oxidizer mass flow rate, fuel length, etc were performed, and the combustion visualization for the inside of a hybrid rocket motor with a diaphragm was performed. With these experimental results, it was confirmed that the main cause of a large excitation was the hole-tone, and it was shown that the hole-tone model can be predicted experimental primary pressure oscillation frequency quite well.

Hybrid rocket had many advantage with compared to solid and liquid rockets. In this study, lab-scale hybrid motor was designed and manufactured. And the methods of regression rate improvement were considered. Thrust was calculated with pressure of the combustion chamber and the regression rate was measured in low flow rate of oxidizer. Several problems and solutions of operating hybrid rocket was presented.

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.

A series of hybrid rocket combustion experiments were carried out with PMMA/GOx changing diameter and length of the disk installed at pre-chamber. The disk can generate vortex shedding flow and change flow conditions prior to entering the fuel grain which could also alter the combustion characteristics and pressure oscillations. The interaction of vortex shedding in the pre-chamber and small-scale vortices adjacent to burning surfaces by using combustion test.

Hybrid propulsion systems provide many advantages in terms of stable operation and safety. However, classical hybrid rocket motors have lower fuel regression rate and combustion efficiency compared to solid propellant rocket motor. The recent research efforts are focused on the improvement of volume limitation and regression rate in the hybrid rocket engine. The present study has numerically investigated the combustion processes in the hybrid rocket engine. The turbulent combustion is represented by the eddy breakup model and Hiroyasu and Nagle and Strickland-Constable model are used for soot formation and soot oxidation. Radiative heat transfer is modeled by finite volume method. To reduce the uncertainties for convective heat transfer near solid fuel surface having strong blowing effect, the Low Reynolds number $\kappa-\varepsilon$ turbulent model is employed. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussion has been made for the turbulent combustion processes in the vortex hybrid rocket engine.

In this study, a hybrid rocket motor with separable and detachable oxidizer tank from combustion chamber is developed. Initially, the measured thrust of the motor showed about 30% of the design thrust since the oxidizer supply was not enough. In order to solve this problem, application is made to expand the orifice diameter of oxidizer injector empirically, so that the mass flow rate of oxidizer was improved. The improved performance was about 60% of design thrust, 18kgf, and thrust-to-weight ratio was reasonable, compared with other sounding rockets.
