Study on the ignition characteristics of combustor and gas generator for LOx-kerosene liquid rocket engine was performed experimentally through a series of combustion tests of sub-scale engine combustor and gas generator. Characteristic of gas-torch ignitor based on gaseous methane and gaseous oxygen was compared with hypergolic ignition using propellant tri-ethyl-aluminium. Gas-torch ignitor showed good performance on igniting sub-scale liquid rocket engine combustor and gas generator. It was observed that the ignition delay is also affected by the extent of nitrogen in the combustion chamber.

한국형 발사체 (KSLV-II, Korea Space Launch Vehicle II)에 적용될 액체로켓엔진의 시스템 설계를 수행하였다. 진공 추력 76톤, 진공 비추력 297 sec인 본 엔진은 가스발생기 사이클로 터보펌프 가압방식을 적용한다. 연소기는 재생냉각형이며 연소압 60 bar이다. 추진제는 액체산소/케로신 조합이다. 엔진 시동은 파이로시동기를 이용하며 연소기 점화는 TEA (TriEthylAluminium)를 사용한다. 에너지 밸런스 해석을 통해서 엔진 시스템 성능과 서브시스템 요구 성능을 결정하였다. 연소압, 비추력 및 엔진무게의 적정성을 사례분석을 통하여 평가하였다. 터보펌프-가스발생기 연계시험과 비교하여 시동 해석방법을 검증함으로써 향후 적용을 위한 준비를 마쳤다. 본 엔진은 능동제어를 적용하지 않으며 모드해석과 분산해석을 통해서 성능 보정 방안을 확정하였다.

For the successful development of the main engine of KSR(Korea Sounding Rocket)-III, Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI) carried out the experimental study on the subscale model engines. Several types of engines were tested on the Small Liquid Rocket Engine Test Facility. One of the typical test results of a Sub. engine(Sub. Mod.3) is presented here. It uses the Jet A-1 as fuel, liquid oxygen as oxidizer, and Tri-Ethyl Aluminium(TEA1) as ignition agent. The gas pressure feed system is adopted as a feeding mechanism and the design chamber pressure is 200psia. The physical phenomena are described in three regimes(ignition, transient, and steady state) with the pressure, thrust, flowrate and image data. And the pressure oscillation is analyzed in Fourier domain (<500Hz). Then we conclude that in this experiment, the engine shows the characteristic low frequency of 80Hz and it is stable for that frequency of pressure oscillation.
