3 HYPROB HYPROB program launched in 2011 under contract by the Italian Ministry of Education and Research has the objective to consolidate national capabilities on the overall engine system for future space applications. For both liquid LOx-CH 4 and hybrid paraffin-based developments, the program is structured in three main lines: Systems: design and development of technology demonstrators, including intermediate breadboards; Technology: R&D development in the areas of CFD combustion modeling, thermo-mechanical modeling and materials, advanced optical diagnostics; Experimental: testing capabilities for both basic physics and systemoriented (demonstrators) experimentation. The definition of the program, carried out by CIRA, involved institutional, industrial and scientific national stakeholders. Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 3
4 HYBRID Project Hybrid is one of the implementing projects of HYPROB program The main objectives of the project are: Design and testing of a hybrid rocket engine as technology demonstrator of research activities, based on paraffin and nitrous oxide (N 2 O), thrust 30kN, re-ignition and throttability capabilities Research and development on alternative oxidizers as O 2 and H 2 O 2 Technology development of solid grain manufacturing process Development of a numerical platform to increase design tools capabilities able to simulate flow phenomena within a hybrid combustion chamber Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 4
5 HRE Demonstrator Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 5
6 Demonstrator dimensioning; Trade-off analyses More than 600 configurations have been analyzed by varying chamber pressure, grain length and port diameter The final configuration has been chosen to maximize Isp DESIGN DRIVERS Thrust : 30 kn Firing time 30 s + 5s as margin SELECTED CONFIGURATION Length = 0.8 m Internal Diam. = 0.1 m External Diam. = 0.35 m P_chamber = 40 bar Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 6
7 Performances Estimation of performances based on 0-D approach assuming an ideal combustion A slight decrease of thrust and chamber pressure is predicted during the burning time (about 5%) Isp is almost constant because for the selected grain length the effect of internal diameter is negligible Present results do not consider throat regression due to ablation Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 7
8 Injection System A fixed injector geometry + Fluid Control Valve has been selected through the Analytical Hierarchy Process Preliminary design has been verified through numerical computations in cavitating conditions Predicted 1-D mass flow rate: g/s Selected injector diameter: 4 mm Liquid phase Gaseous phase CFD Results Injection Pressure (MPa) Number of injectors: 50 Chamber Pressure (MPa) Numerical Mass Flow Rate (g/s) Mod. Bernoulli % Error < 5 Highlights Good overlap between analytical formula and CFD Cavitation starts at the injector inlet Steep phase change at injector exit Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 8
9 The influence of the following parameters has been investigated by means of CFD: convergent length convergent angle radius of curvature at throat divergent angle Mach number Nozzle (1/2) Nozzle ID-25 Theta div: 18 deg Rc: 1.5 Rt Theta conv: 45 deg Selected configuration is a compromise between two opposite effects: Higher throat heat fluxes with lower total thermal loads lower throat heat fluxes with higher total thermal loads Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 9
10 Throat Heat Flux: ~ 30 MW/m 2 Nozzle Cooling Problem Nozzle (2/2) Ablative graphite Nozzle A simplified approach based on CMA software with proper Scale factor has been used to evaluate the regression rate and the conductive heat flux t = 30s : T max = K Thermal computation of the graphite nozzle Use or disclosure of the information contained herein is subject to specific written CIRA approval 10
