고체로켓추진기관의 추력조절을 위해 핀틀 기술이 사용된다. 아직까지 핀틀 유동에 대해 근본적인 물리적 이해를 돕는 연구가 공개되지 않아, 이 연구에서 다양한 형상의 needle형 핀틀에 따른 유동구조에 대한 수치적 연구를 진행하였다. 2차원 축대칭, 압축성을 고려하여, 상용 열유체 해석 프로그램인 FLUENT 6.2를 사용하여 해석을 수행하였다. 난류 모델을 검증하기 위해 기 수행된 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 핀틀 각도(tip angle)가 작아질수록 노즐에서 유동 박리점이 하류로 이동하며, 핀틀에서 발생하는 끝단 충격파가 약해진다. 핀틀 반경(tip radius)이 작아질수록 핀틀에서 발생하는 끝단 충격파가 하류로 이동하며, 크기는 약해진다. 핀틀 형상(contour)은 유동 박리 지점에 직접적인 영향을 미친다.

대기가 희박한 고고도 환령이나 급격한 선회를 위해 2차분사에 의한 추력벡터제어를 사용한다. 8개의 2차분사구를 갖는 고체로켓모터를 대상으로, 2차분사의 유량을 조절하는 밸브의 개도가 추력, 측추력 및 롤 모멘트에 미치는 영향을 해석적으로 연구하였다. 정상 상태의 3차원 Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes 식의 해를 구하였으며, 난류를 위해 Spalart-Almaras 모델을 사용하였다. 수치해석의 타당성을 평가하기 위해 실험 결과와 해석결과를 비교하였다. 밸브의 개도가 증가함에 따라 추력은 감소하나 측추력은 증가한다. 반면, 롤 모멘트의 경우, 밸브와 2차분사 파이프의 상호작용에 의해 개도에 비례하지 않는다.

A typical unsteady internal ballistic analysis model was developed to take account the erosive burning of a solid rocket motor. The variance of local velocity and pressure along grain surface were analyzed by using the continuity and momentum equation. The coefficients of erosive burning were drew from comparing experiment data with analysis. It was investigated that the grain shapes of propellant affect the erosive burning.

Both structural analysis and hydraulic test have been conducted to confirm the burst characteristics of filament wound solid motor case. Failure criteria have been defined with bursting above 150% of MEOP and failure in the cylinder. The results of analysis showed that filament fiber in the cylinder should be broken at about 2088psig. From a hydraulic test the same failure mode and the level of 2200psig of burst pressure have been proved. With these results, it is verified that a filament wound case meets burst requirements.

Theoretical model of a variable thrust solid rocket motor with a pintle nozzle was derived. For the chamber pressure control, classical model linearization and proportional-intergral controller was used. And then two types of gain scheduling controller were suggested to imporve controller performance for the non-linear propulsion model. Considering characteristics of systems, control gains were scheduled by chamber pressure or free volume. Step responses of each controllers were compared. As a result, the proper control algorithm about characteristics of variable thrust rocket motor was suggested.

Dual pulse rocket motor is a solid motor with two grains separated by a bulkhead and rupture disc. The elasto-plastic explicit dynamic analysis for the rupture disc was conducted by finite element method. The effect of the slit geometry of a rupture disc was parametrically analyzed in terms of rupture time and shape. The results can be used to control the rupture pressure by changing the slit geometry of rupture disc.

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 $165.5^{\circ}C$.

KSLV-I KM plume including alumina particle has been studied using the continuum solver. Alumina particles are assumed to have 7 different diameters, and the specific ratio of the plume gas is assumed to be 1.2, with which the internal nozzle flow characteristics are similar to those of the chemically equilibrium analysis results. The results showed that the expansion angle of the particles is smaller than that of the gas phase, and that the big sized alumina particles are gathered in the plume core and the expansion angles of the big sized particles are smaller than those of the light particles. When the emissivity of the particles are assumed to be 0.1, the radiative heat flux is equivalent to those measured during the flight test of KSLV-I.
