Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solid rocket engine combustion chamber structure design, and in particular relates to a combustion chamber structure capable of limiting the shrinkage and deformation of a head charge surface. Background Art
[0002] The combustion chamber charge is one of the important parts of the solid rocket engine structure, providing power for the engine and thus propelling the missile body. However, during the cooling and solidification process, the solid propellant grain will shrink and deform in the axial and radial directions due to the internal stress. For the ignition device installed at the head of the combustion chamber, the radial shrinkage of the inner surface of the grain will cause the assembly interference problem between the combustion chamber head charge surface and the ignition device during the final assembly process, resulting in failure to assemble normally. Therefore, a certain gap is usually reserved between the inner surface of the grain and the ignition device during the design process to avoid this problem.
[0003] However, the rational design of the reserved gap faces challenges. On the one hand, for engines of different diameters, the shrinkage of the inner surface of the grain during the curing process is different, and the design can only rely on empirical estimates; on the other hand, the mechanical properties of the propellant are greatly affected by seasonal changes, and the shrinkage of the inner surface of the grain during the curing process in different seasons is also different. Once the grain surface is deformed, it needs to be manually reshaped to eliminate interference, which increases the danger. In addition, unreasonable reserved gaps may cause the ignition device to fall off due to ablation, thereby stimulating thrust and pressure oscillations that affect the working efficiency of solid rocket engines. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a combustion chamber structure that can limit the shrinkage and deformation of the head charge surface. By arranging an insulating ring with a limiting function on the head charge surface of the combustion chamber, the radial shrinkage and deformation of the head charge surface can be effectively prevented, thereby avoiding the assembly interference problem between the inner surface of the charge column and the ignition device due to solidification deformation, and avoiding the danger brought by artificial shaping of the charge surface. At the same time, the slit formed between the insulating ring and the ignition device effectively prevents the ignition device from falling off due to ablation, thereby avoiding the thrust and pressure oscillation phenomenon that may be caused by this, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the solid rocket engine during operation.
[0005] The specific technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:
[0006] A combustion chamber structure for limiting the shrinkage and deformation of the head charge surface, comprising a charge, a shell with an insulating layer, and a lining. The combustion chamber structure also includes an insulating ring, which is located at the head of the combustion chamber and bonded to the shell with an insulating layer by an adhesive. The charge is bonded to the shell with an insulating layer and the insulating ring by a lining.
[0007] The insulating ring has a limiting function. When the insulating ring is coated on the charge surface close to the combustion chamber head, the hardness of the material itself prevents the radial shrinkage and deformation of the inner surface of the charge.
[0008] A narrow gap is formed between the heat-insulating ring and the ignition device installed on the head of the combustion chamber to protect the ignition device from being burned and falling off.
[0009] Preferably, the material of the thermal insulation ring is ablation-resistant phenolic resin.
[0010] Preferably, the cross-section of the thermal insulation ring is L-shaped.
[0011] Preferably, the thickness of the thermal insulation ring is 1 mm.
[0012] Preferably, the material of the drug column is solid propellant.
[0013] Preferably, the charge is a tube-slot type charge in the form of inner hole combustion.
[0014] Preferably, the outer diameter of the medicine column is φ359.8 mm, and the inner diameter is φ173 mm to φ176 mm.
[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] (1) The present invention sets a heat-insulating ring on the charge surface of the combustion chamber head to limit the position of the charge surface of the head. The heat-insulating ring is firmly bonded to the heat-insulating layer and the charge column by an adhesive and a lining layer respectively. When the heat-insulating ring is coated on the charge surface of the combustion chamber head, the hardness of the material itself can effectively prevent the charge surface from radial deformation, thereby avoiding the assembly interference problem with the ignition device during the final assembly process.
[0017] (2) The thermal insulation ring provided by the present invention is made of ablation-resistant material. At the same time, the narrow gap between the thermal insulation ring and the ignition device can effectively prevent the head ignition device from falling off due to root ablation, thereby avoiding the thrust and pressure oscillation phenomenon that may be caused by this, which is beneficial to improving the working efficiency of the solid rocket engine.
[0018] (3) The heat-insulating ring provided by the present invention avoids the manual shaping process after the medicine surface shrinks and deforms, thereby reducing the danger of the manufacturing process;
[0019] (4) The combustion chamber structure provided by the present invention is simple in process and has high versatility, which is conducive to reducing production and maintenance costs, and is also conducive to improving the reliability of the solid rocket engine during operation, thereby achieving cost reduction and efficiency improvement.
