Abstract

A propulsion system of a satellite provides a necessary thrust to reach to the final orbit after a separation from a launch vehicle. Also, it supplies pulse moments to maintain the satellite in a mission orbit and for its attitude controls during a mission life time. The present study investigates the development trend of bipropellant rocket engines for an orbit transfer and an attitude control of a satellite using monomethylhydrazine and hydrazine for fuel and dinitrogen tetroxide for oxidizer to derive fundamental specifications which are necessary for domestic development researches. Also, their major performance characteristics are summarized.

인공위성의 추진시스템은 위성이 발사체로부터 분리된 후 최종 궤도로 도달할 때까지 궤도를 이동하는데 필요한 추력을 제공한다. 또한 임무궤도에서는 궤도 유지와 자세제어를 위한 펄스 모멘트를 발생하는 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 향후 인공위성 궤도전이 및 자세제어용 이원추진제 로켓엔진을 국내에서 개발시 관련 연구에 필요한 규격을 도출하기 위한 목적으로서 모노메틸하이드라진과 하이드라진을 연료로, 사산화이질소 산화제를 이용하는 인공위성용 이원추진제 로켓엔진에 대한 현재 개발동향 및 주요 성능 특성에 대해 조사하였다.
