강내탄도 내 차압 감소를 위한 추진제 위치 연구

초록

The position effect of the solid propellant in the combustion chamber on the decrease of the differential pressure has been investigated using the IBcode. Generally the metallic cartridge or CCC (combustible cartridge case) as the propellant for the cannon has been loaded. The position of the propellant(cartridge) is, therefore, a major factor for the interior ballistics in case the combustion chamber is larger than the cartridge. In this study, three cases of the existence of empty space in the chamber has been considered. As results, the case of the propellant located in the region near the base and breech has shown that the negative differential pressure and the difference between the breech pressure and the base pressure are much higher than those of the case of the propellant located in the center of the chamber. The case of the propellant in the center of the chamber is, therefore, more profitable to improve the performance of the interior ballistics.
