摘要
Pressure oscillation in solid rocket motor is believed to be the results of the interaction between the flow instability and the acoustics of combustion chamber.Several reasonable and necessary hypothesizes are given to establish an equation to describe this coupling.A cold flow motor called CVS60D(corner vortex shedding 60°)was designed to study the flow-acoustic coupling based on theoretical analysis.Experimental investigations were carried out to determine the acoustics of CVS60D.Corner vortex shedding is generated at the backward facing step which is designed similar to the geometry of the motor with finocyl propellant after the burnout of its fins.A pintle was used to modify the velocity in the duct to change the frequency of vortex shedding.It is found that large amplitude pressure oscillation occurs when the pintle moves to a range of specific position,which indicates that the frequency of vortex shedding is close to one order of acoustic modes of combustion chamber.The amplitude of pressure oscillation changes as the pintle moves.
Pressure oscillation in solid rocket motor is believed to be the results of the interaction between the flow instability and the ＇acoustics of combustion chamber. Several reasonable and necessary hypothesizes are given to establish an equation to describe this coupling. A cold flow motor called CVS60D （corner vortex shedding 60°） was designed to study the flow-acoustic coupling based on theoretical analysis. Experimental investigations were carried out to determine the acoustics of CVS60D. Corner vortex shedding is generated at the backward facing step which is designed similar to the geometry of the motor with finocyl propellant after the burnout of its fins. A pintle was used to modify the velocity in the duct to change the frequency of vortex shedding. It is found that large amplitude pressure oscillation occurs when the pintle moves to a range of specific position, which indicates that the frequency of vortex shedding is close to one order of acoustic modes of combustion chamber. The amplitude of pressure oscillation changes as the pintle moves.
