A high intensity acoustic test facility is constructed at Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) by 2003. The reverberant chamber of the facility has a volume of 1,228 cubic meters and shall provide an acoustic environment of 152 dB over the frequency range of 25 Hz to 10,000 Hz. The facility consists of a large scaled reverberant chamber, acoustic power generation systems, gases nitrogen supply systems, and acoustic control systems. This paper describes how the basic parameters of a chamber and power generation systems are controlled to meet the requirement of the test. The volume of a reverberant chamber is controlled by the size of test objects and the reverberant characteristics of a chamber. The capacity of acoustic power generation systems is determined by the energy absorption of a chamber and the efficiency of acoustic modulators. Simple math is employed to calculate the required power of acoustic modulators. Moreover, the paper explains how the distribution of sound pressure level at low frequency is checked by analytical and numerical methods.

Effects of various baffle designs on acoustic characteristics in combustion chamber are numerically investigated by adopting linear acoustic analysis. A hub-blade configuration with five blades is selected as a candidate baffle and five variants of baffles with various specifications are designed depending on baffle height and hub position. As damping parameters, natural-frequency shift and damping factor are considered and the damping capacity of various baffle designs is evaluated. Increase in baffle height results in more damping capacity and the hub position affects appreciably the damping of the first radial resonant mode. Depending on baffle height, two close resonant modes could be overlapped and thereby the damping factor for one resonant mode is increased exceedingly. The present procedure based on acoustic analysis is expected to be a useful tool to predict acoustic field in combustion chamber and to design the passive control devices such as baffle and acoustic resonator.

In a liquid rocket engine, the role of gas-liquid scheme injector as an acoustic resonator or absorber is studied experimentally for combustion stability by adopting linear acoustic test. The acoustic-pressure signals or responses from the chamber are monitored by acoustic amplitude. Acoustic behavior in a rocket combustor with a single injector is investigated and the acoustic-damping effect of the injector is evaluated for cold condition by the quantitative parameter of damping factor as a function of injector length. From the experimental data, it is found that the injector can play a significant role in acoustic damping when it is tuned finely. The optimum tuning-length of the injector to maximize the damping capacity is near half of a full wavelength of the first longitudinal overtone mode traveling in the injector with the acoustic frequency intended for damping in the chamber. When the injector has large diameter, the phenomenon of the mode split is observed near the optimum injector length and thereby, the acoustic-damping effect of the tuned injectors can be degraded.

The acoustic characteristics of expansion chamber will be changed with the variation of inlet/outlet location due to the higher order acoustic mode in a high frequency in which the plane wave theory is not available. In this paper, the acoustic performance of reactive type expansion chamber with circular cross-section is analyzed by using the modified mode matching theory. The sensitivity analysis of four-pole parameters with respect to the location of inlet and outlet is also suggested to increase the acoustic performance. The acoustic power transmission coefficient is used as cost function, and the location of inlet and outlet is used as design variables. The steepest descent method and SUMT algorithm are used for optimization technique. Several results showed that the expansion chamber with optimally located inlet/outlet had better acoustic performance than concentric expansion chamber.

The acoustic performance of reactive type single expansion chamber can be calculated theoretically by plane wave theory. But higher order modes should be considered to widen the frequency range. Munjal has suggested the method for analyzing the acoustic properties of simple expansion chamber with taking into consideration of higher order mode of inlet/outlet. But his method cannot predict the acoustic properties exactly when the dimensions of inlet/outlet and expansion chamber have not integer multiples. In this paper the new method was suggested to overcome the shortcomings of Munjal's method The predictions by this method were also compared with those by the finite element method.

반파장 공명기가 장착된 연소실의 비선형 음향 감쇠를 알아보기 위하여 비선형 음향해석을 수행하였다. 먼저 공명기가 없는 기본 연소실에 80 dB에서 150 dB의 넓은 범위의 음향파를 가진하여 음향장을 분석하였다. 제 1 접선방향 음향 모드의 감쇠율은 가진되는 음향파의 크기에 따라 비선형적으로 증가하였고, 125 dB 이상부터 비선형성이 나타나기 시작했다. 다음으로 반파장 공명기의 감쇠 효과를 조사하였다. 선형해석으로부터 유도된 최적의 음향학적인 동조 조건이 비선형 음향해석에서도 여전히 유효함을 알 수 있었다. 큰 음향파의 섭동에 대한 감쇠는 효과적이지만, 선형 음향 가진에 비해서 음향학적인 감쇠기로써의 기능은 작아짐을 알 수 있었다.

음향불안정을 억제하는 수동제어기구중 하나인 음향공의 음향학적 효과를 파악하기 위해, 음향공이 장착된 로켓엔진 연소실의 음향장 특성을 수치해석적으로 조사하였다. 음향공 모델로서 Helmholtz 형태의 공명기가 채택되었고, 조화해석을 통해 주로 음향공에 의해 야기되는 음향학적 효과를 관찰하였다. 음향공의 동조주파수를 변화시켜가면서 연소실의 음향진동 응답을 구하고, 제1접선방향 음향모드의 감쇠인자를 구하였다. 동조주파수가 공진주파수에 접근함에 따라 모드분할 현상이 나타났고, 이로 인해 음향공을 본래의 제1접선방향 음향모드에 동조시키더라도 음향감쇠효과가 저하됨을 알았다. 효과적인 감쇠를 위해서는, 억제하고자 하는 음향모드로부터 모드분할 현상이 나타나지 않으면서 그 음향모드의 감쇠효과를 극대화하도록 음향공을 동조시키는 것이 바람직함을 알 수 있었다.

고성능 액체 로켓엔진에서 일반적으로 사용되는 기체-액체형 분사기가 장착된 연소실의 음향장을 수치적으로 해석하였다. 해당 분사기는 반파장 공명기의 역할을 할 수 있다. 다수의 공명기가 장착된 경우 연소실과 분사기간의 음향학적인 연계성으로 특이한 음향학적 특성이 관측되었다. 분사기 길이가 반파장 공명기 길이에 도달함에 따라 분사기와 연계된 새로운 음향 모드가 나타났으며, 그 음향 모드의 감쇠인자는 상당히 작았다. 따라서, 분사기의 음향감쇠 효과를 최적화 하려면 본래의 반파장 길이보다 약간 작은 길이를 갖도록 해야함을 알았다.

Acoustic characteristics of unbaffled and baffled combustion chamber are experimentally investigated under atmospheric condition to preliminarily determine baffle for mitigation of combustion instability. To investigate the effect of the baffle which has several configurations such as radial baffles and hub/blade baffle, resonant-frequency shift and damping factors of the chamber were analyzed and compared quantitatively with those of the unbaffled combustion chamber. From a view of acoustic characteristics, radial baffles with several configurations have not much difference in resonant-frequency shift and damping factor ratio with each other. On the other hand, hub and blade baffle is very effective to suppress the first tangential mode which was found to be the most harmful acoustic mode in KSR(Korean Sounding Rocket)-III engine. But more study on design parameters such as hub size and axial length should be done for complete optimization of hub and blade baffle. The present study based on linear acoustic analysis is expected to be a useful confirming tool to predict acoustic field and design a passive control devices such as baffle and acoustic cavity.
