Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solid motors, and in particular relates to a high-strength and large aspect ratio combustion chamber casing and a manufacturing process thereof. Background Art
[0002] Solid rocket engines are one of the most important parts of aircraft. The combustion chamber shell provides a place for the storage and combustion of propellant. At the same time, the combustion chamber shell is also part of the overall structure of the aircraft. Many parts on the aircraft are connected to it, and it also has to bear other mechanical loads. When the engine is working, the propellant burns in the combustion chamber shell, and the high-temperature and high-pressure combustion gas generated is ejected from the nozzle to provide power for the aircraft. The combustion chamber shell is an important part of the solid rocket engine, and its main structure is a long cylinder.
[0003] With the rapid development of aircraft, the overall requirements for power devices of aircraft are getting higher and higher. It is necessary to use a high-strength and light-weight combustion chamber shell to reduce the passive mass of the aircraft. Usually, the negative mass of the aircraft is reduced by reducing the wall thickness. At present, the combustion chamber shell with a diameter of 300 mm and an aspect ratio greater than 15 is processed in sections and then assembled by mechanical connection. This processing method makes the combustion chamber shell easy to deform. If the shell deformation is reduced by increasing the wall thickness (thickness above 2.7 mm), the processing technology is too complicated and cannot meet the requirements during implementation. The combustion chamber shell manufactured by the mechanical manufacturing process of the above two methods is of large mass and cannot meet the requirements of low passive mass of the aircraft.
