Abstract

A supersonic rocket plum flowfield of kerosene/liquid-oxygen based propulsion system has been analysed using the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations coupled with a 9-species 14-reaction finite-chemistry model. The result were compared with chemically frozen flow solution to investigate the effect of finite-rate chemistry on the plume flowfield. The computations were performed using a commercial CFD software, FLUENT 5. The finite-rate chemistry solution exhibited higher temperature caused by the reactions within the nozzle. All the chemical reactions within the plum were dominated only in the shear layer and behind the barrel shock reflection region where the temperatures are high and the effect of finite-rate chemical reactions on the flowfield was found to be insignificant. However, the present plume computation including the finite-rate chemical reaction within the plume has revealed major reactions occurring in the plum and their reaction mechanisms.

케로신/액체산소 추진기관을 갖는 초음속 로켓의 플룸 유동장을 9 화학종 14 반응 모델과 연계된 레이놀즈 평균 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 이용하여 해석하였다. 유한속도 화학반응이 플룸 유동장에 미치는 영향을 고찰하기 위하여 그 결과를 화학적 동결유동 해석 결과와 비교하였다. 계산은 상용 CFD 소프트웨어인 FLUENT 5를 이용하여 수행하였다. 반응 유동 해석 결과는 노즐 내부에서의 화학반응에 따른 연소가스의 온도 증가로 인해 전체적으로 동결유동에 비해 더 높은 온도장을 나타내었다. 플룸에서의 모든 화학반응은 전단류와 배럴 충격파 반사지점 후방의 고온 영역에 국한되어 일어났으며 본 해석의 경우 플룸내에서의 유한속도 화학반응이 유동에 미치는 영향은 미약한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 본 연구에서 이루어진 유한속도 화학반응을 고려한 플룸 해석을 통하여 플룸에서의 주된 화학 반응 및 이들의 반응 메커니즘을 확인할 수 있었다.
