[0002] The shell structure of a solid rocket engine combustion chamber is usually formed by connecting pieces and a cylinder after welding and heat treatment, and must have certain strength requirements. Among them, the wall thickness size is a key control element, which can ensure the working safety of the engine. In the forming process of the combustion chamber shell, in order to improve the material utilization rate, the cylinder is usually formed by spinning process to ensure the wall thickness and shape and position tolerances, but this method has relatively large dispersion of the outer diameter size of the machined parts. Therefore, in order to ensure the welding quality and control the radial misalignment of the connecting piece and the cylinder welding part, the outer diameter of the connecting piece is processed to match the cylinder. The inner surface of the connecting piece is composed of a straight section and an ellipsoidal surface, the long axis vertex of the ellipsoidal surface is connected with the straight section, and the outer surface is formed by offsetting a certain wall thickness size from the inner surface. The basic structure is shown in Figure 1

[0038] The present application is further illustrated in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples, which include but are not limited to the following examples.
[0039] In view of the defects of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present application is to determine the risk points through process analysis and calculation, and eliminate technical risks.
[0040] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application provides a process analysis method and a calculation method.
[0041] (1) Analysis of the forming process
[0042] The connecting piece is mostly machined by numerical control lathe, and the process flow of the forming process is as shown in Figure 2 , and the structure is as shown in Figure 3 .
[0043] (2) Analysis and calculation of the forming process
[0044] 1) Outer diameter size
[0045] The specific calculation is as follows:
[0046] The outer diameter size precision of the cylinder is generally (A±0.3) mm according to the industry standard, and the outer diameter size of the connecting piece is generally required to be (wherein A is the actual measured value of the outer diameter size of the cylinder), and the outer diameter size of the connecting piece is calculated as
[0047] 2) Inner diameter size
[0048] According to the sequence of the process flow of the forming process, the size chain (wall thickness, outer diameter, inner diameter) is constructed, wherein the open loop is the wall thickness size (A2±0.05) mm and the outer diameter size A1, and the closed loop is the inner diameter size A0, as shown in Figure 3 . The calculation process is as follows:
[0049] A0 A0max =A1 A1max -2*A2 A2min =(A+0.5)-{2*(A2-0.05)}=(A-2*A2) +0.6
[0050] A0 A0min =A1 A1min -2*A2 A2max =(A-0.2)-{(2*A2+0.05)}=(A-2*A2) -0.3
[0051] Therefore, the inner diameter size is:
[0052]
[0053] (3) Process analysis
[0054] Based on process analysis and calculation, the outer diameter, wall thickness, and inner diameter of the connector are respectively... (A2±0.05)mm, (A-2*A2) Calculated based on the upper deviation of the limit dimensions during the outer diameter machining process, the outer diameter is taken as (A+0.5) mm, and the wall thickness is taken as the lower deviation as (A2-0.05) mm. Therefore, the upper deviation of the limit dimensions of the inner diameter is (A-2*A2) mm + 0.6 mm. The major axis (b) of the ellipsoid equation is generally designed according to the theoretical dimension (A-2*A2) / 2 mm, that is, the theoretical diameter of the vertex of the major axis of the inner surface is (A-2*A2) mm. It can be determined that at the junction of the straight section and the ellipsoidal surface, both the inner and outer diameters show a step difference. The outer diameter offset relative to the ellipsoidal surface is +0.5 / 2 = 0.25 mm, and the inner diameter offset relative to the ellipsoidal surface is +0.6 / 2 = +0.3 mm. That is, the straight section moves up relative to the ellipsoidal surface, and the wall thickness at the junction is (A2-0.3) mm, which does not meet the design minimum wall thickness requirement of (A2-0.05) mm. For example... Figure 4 As shown.
[0055] Calculating based on the lower deviation of the limit dimension during the outer diameter machining process, with the outer diameter taken as (A-0.2) mm and the wall thickness as the upper deviation as (A2+0.05) mm, the lower deviation dimension of the inner diameter limit is (A-2*A2) mm-0.3 mm. It can be determined that a step difference occurs in both the inner and outer diameters at the junction of the ellipsoid and the straight section. The outer diameter of the straight section is offset relative to the ellipsoid by -0.2 / 2 = -0.1 mm, and the inner diameter is offset relative to the ellipsoid by -0.3 / 2 = -0.15 mm. That is, the straight section shifts downward relative to the ellipsoid, and the wall thickness at the junction is (A2-0.1) mm, which does not meet the design minimum wall thickness requirement of (A2-0.05) mm. Figure 5 As shown.
[0056] In summary, based on process analysis and calculations using technological methods, this type of structural design has risk points that could affect strength and reliability.
[0057] Taking a certain type of connector structure as an example, the structure is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, the wall thickness is 2.5mm ± 0.1mm, and the equation of the inner ellipsoid is X. 2 / 104 2 +Y 2 / 254 2 =1. To ensure welding strength and control welding misalignment, the outer diameter of the connector is required to be... The vehicle is designed to be matched with a cylinder outer diameter of 513mm. The vehicle size requirements are as follows: ( (This refers to the actual dimensions of the cylinder).

[0064]
[0065]
[0066] The inner diameter size is:

[0068] (2) Process forming process
[0069] The specific processing steps are:
[0070] ① The outer diameter of the cylinder is matched with the vehicle to ensure the size of 20mm;
[0071] ② Process the straight section of the inner surface, ensure the wall thickness size of 2.5mm±0.1mm and the depth size of 35mm;
[0072] ③ Process the inner type ellipsoid surface according to the equation; process the inner type surface cone, determine the cone angle according to the actual size of the inner diameter, and connect with the ellipsoid long axis;
[0073] ④ Process the outer surface, ensure the wall thickness size of 2.5mm±0.05mm.
[0074] ⑤ After welding and heat treatment, process the outer diameter (shelf position).
[0075] (3) Process analysis

As shown in Figure 9 .
[0077] According to the calculation of the lower deviation of the limit size in the outer diameter processing process, the outer diameter is taken as The wall thickness is taken as the upper deviation 2.6mm, and the limit lower deviation size of the inner diameter is Therefore, it can be judged that the inner diameter and the outer diameter at the connection between the straight section and the ellipsoidal surface have step differences, the outer diameter is offset by -0.4 / 2=-0.2mm relative to the ellipsoidal surface, the inner diameter is offset by -0.6 / 2=-0.3mm relative to the ellipsoidal surface, that is, the straight section is downward relative to the ellipsoidal surface, and the wall thickness at the connection is 2.5-0.2=2.3mm, which does not meet the requirement of the minimum wall thickness 2.4mm. As shown in Figure 10 Through process analysis and calculation, the design structure still has a risk point.
