A two-dimensional thermal response and ablation analysis code for predicting charring material ablation and shape change on solid rocket nozzle is presented. For closing the problem of thermal analysis, Arrhenius' equation and Zvyagin's ablation model are used. The moving boundary problem are solved by remeshing-rezoning method. For simulation of complicated thermal protection systems, this method is integrated with a three-dimensional finite-element thermal and structure analysis code through continuity of temperature and heat flux.

Report is devoted to place and role of numerical simulation in design of rocket propulsion systems. In introduction advanced solutions in liquid propellant rocket engines design are presented. Further essence of design process described briefly. The central place of method of solution of direct problem in design process was shown. Numerical simulation for solving direct problem of fluid dynamic was used as the alternative to theoretical and experimental approaches. Main features of numerical models of processes in propulsion systems were observed. Some results of simulation and (or) design of different types of chemical propulsion system were presented also. The combined rocket engine, rocket engine with injection of after-turbine gas into supersonic part of the nozzle, solid propellant engine and hybrid propulsion engine are under consideration.

The solid rocket interacts circumscriptively in terms of is many more than liquid rocket. It is uncontrollable than liquid rocket because all part of combustion is decided such as Mixture ratio of propellant, burning time and area. However, production cost is cheap and because authoritativeness security can be easy and enlarge the early speed that follow thrust-to-weight ratio, it is used comprehensively by small size rocket. Considered about nozzle cooling to control phenomenon that burn by thermal conduction in interior wall of nozzle that follow in thrust increase of solid rocket and erosion phenomenon by combustion gas of high speed.

Different kinds of solid rocket motors manufactured for various aim have their own shelf life. So they must be done away if not used. In general, ammonium perchlorate(AP) has used in the process of solid rocket motors, which is environmental pollutant. Out-burning and out-detonation were usual in the past, but they polluted the surrounding environment and raised safety issues. As an alternative to resolve these, water-washout process to separate the propellant from rocket motors and an eco-friendly way for recovering AP are studied in this paper.

In this study, flow visualization method to simulate internal flows of solid rocket motor in a water tunnel is introduced. The tunnel provides excellent visualization of vortex flows and has been used to propellant grain design of the solid rocket motor. A water tunnel is suggested for the research and the visualization test using dye, hydrogen bubble generator and PIV has been studied and discussed.

The hybrid rocket has been known for over 50 years. It is safe and cheap but wasn't widely used for the deficit of low regression rate. However, the hybrid rocket propulsion system will replace a lot of fields of missiles, rockets and propulsion systems of launch vehicles with new development of paraffin based solid fuel composition

A Numerical Simulation which uses preconditioning algorithm to examine unsteady combustion processes for the AP/HTPB propellant with a converging-diverging nozzle has been compared with experimental data for solid rocket motor. To analysis reacting flow of solid rocket motor, unsteady pressure, temperature contour was simulated by grid moving of propellant.

Insensitive Munitions(IM) of solid propulsion system are defined as munitions that fulfil the performance and operational requirements, but will minimize the violence of a reaction when subjected to inadvertant stimuli. It should be clear that the reaction violence of rocket motor subjected to thermal stimuli can be mitigated by reducing confinement prior to propellant reaction. Devices designed to do this by venting the rocket motor case are commonly referred to as mitigation devices. The objective of this paper is to introduce the technical information related to the pyrotechnic mitigation devices for insensitive munition of solid rocket motor.

The main purpose of igniter is sure ignition of main propellant at desired ignition delay times. Since ignition mechanism of solid rocket propellant involves so many complicated physical and chemical phenomena, it is almost impossible to predict ignition behavior with pure analytical means. In this study, one dimensional and unsteady ignition transient phenomena in solid rocket was analyzed by finite volume method. In analysis, assumption was made that ignition occurs when propellant surface temperature reaches to it's auto-ignition temperature.

Bullet impact tests for solid rocket motor were performed and its results wert described. Two motors were made of composite and steel for case material, respectively and their reactions to the bullet impact were compared. Throughout the tests it had been tried to setup the procedure of bullet impact test and criteria of the judgment for the reactions.
