In this embodiment, the last-repair gesture control power system has a first control state, a second control state, a third control state, and a fourth control state.
The extrusion gas and propellant needed by the work of the final-repair gesture control power system are respectively filled in a gas cylinder and a storage tank in advance, a high-pressure explosion valve is arranged at the downstream of the gas cylinder, and the front and the rear of the storage tank are respectively provided with a low-pressure explosion valve. The control system electrifies the electric explosion tube in the high-pressure electric explosion valve behind the gas cylinder at a certain moment, opens the gas cylinder, and then electrifies the electric explosion valve in front of and behind the storage tank, and the gas circuit and the liquid circuit are respectively opened for flowing.
The high-pressure nitrogen in the gas cylinder flows to the pressure reducing valve through the high-pressure explosion valve, and is in a low-pressure state with stable pressure after flowing out, so as to pressurize the storage tank and provide an open air source for the electric air valve.
The pressure relief valve is downstream of the cylinder and controls the pressure into the fuel and oxidant reservoirs, thereby affecting the pressure at which the fuel and oxidant reservoirs supply the propellant to the engine.
According to design requirements, the nominal value of the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve is 3.5MPa, the volume flow of nitrogen at the outlet of the pressure reducing valve ranges from 0.026L/s to 2.1L/s, the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve is reduced along with the increase of the flow, and the control precision of the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve is not lower than +/-5%.
In the first control state, two 50N engines work, the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve is high, the flow resistance of the pipeline system is small, the inlet pressure of the engine thrust chamber is in the highest state, the pressure of the engine chamber can be increased, and the calculation shows that the thrust in the state deviates from the design state by +12.62%.

In the fourth control state, the eight 700N engines and the two 50N engines work simultaneously, the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve is in the lowest state, and the flow resistance of the pipeline system is maximum, so that the inlet pressure of the engine thrust chamber and the chamber pressure of the thrust chamber are greatly lower than the design state, and in the lowest state, the 700N engine thrust and the design state deviate by-12.99% and the 50N engine thrust and the design state deviate by-13.05% in the state.
TABLE 5 non-correction power system parameter table in fourth state
Before the engine works, the oxidant and the fuel are respectively filled into the control valve group through the pipelines under the action of the pressure of the storage tank, after a working instruction is received, the control valve group is synchronously opened, the propellant respectively enters the combustion chamber through the oxidant nozzle and the fuel nozzle, high-temperature fuel gas is formed after atomization, blending and combustion, and then the fuel gas is discharged from the spray pipe in an accelerating way, so that the thrust required by the upper-stage attitude control is generated.
Because the flow resistance of the system is basically proportional to the square of the flow, under the condition that the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve is certain, the variation range of the inlet pressure of the engine is large under the working condition of high and low flow, the pressure range which the engine needs to adapt to is wide, the parameters such as the outlet pressure of the pressure reducing valve, the pressure drop of an adjusting orifice plate and the like need to be reasonably matched, and the system parameters are reasonably distributed by combining the system cold test data, the engine test data and the actual use requirements of control professions.
The engine pressure needs to satisfy the following relationship:
Pc+ΔPinj+ΔPv+ΔPh≤P*;
Wherein P c is the steady-state working chamber pressure of the thrust chamber, deltaP inj is the injection pressure drop, deltaP v is the flow resistance of the propellant control valve bank, deltaP h is the pressure drop of the pressure regulating orifice plate, and P * is the inlet pressure of the propellant control valve bank.
The injection pressure drop and the steady-state working chamber pressure of the thrust chamber have the following relation:
ΔPinj=0.35Pc;
In addition, according to the design requirement and the actual working conditions of the corresponding components, the parameters are set as follows:
ΔPv=0.2MPa;
ΔPh=0.1MPa;
P*=3MPa;
therefore, the derived steady-state working chamber pressure requirement of the thrust chamber is as follows:
substituting the parameters into a formula to calculate, wherein the steady-state working chamber pressure of the thrust chamber is 2MPa.
And S3, determining an injection scheme and a profile scheme of an engine thrust chamber.
When determining the injection scheme, for the 50N thrust chamber, the direct current mutual impact injection scheme is adopted because the diameter of the combustion chamber of the thrust chamber is smaller, and the propellant is easy to form a local oxygen-enriched combustion zone on the wall surface of the combustion chamber after being sputtered, so that the structural heat protection of the thrust chamber is not facilitated.
The fuel nozzle and the oxidant nozzle are coaxially nested, the fuel nozzle is arranged inside, the oxidant nozzle is arranged outside, propellant is accelerated by the rotational flow of each rotational flow cavity and then is sprayed out, and an atomization conical surface is formed under the action of centrifugal force. After the oxidant contacts with the fuel, the oxidant is rapidly mixed and atomized under the action of atomization kinetic energy, so that the oxidant is ignited for combustion, and the engine is started to work.
For a 700N thrust chamber, a direct current mutual impact injection design form is adopted, and compared with the existing model, the diameter of the combustion chamber of the thrust chamber is 39mm, the characteristic length is about 310mm, and the combustion efficiency is more than or equal to 0.92.
In determining the profile scheme, the characteristic length L=0.3m of the 50N engine combustion chamber is selected according to the gas residence time requirement (generally 1 ms-3 ms) and the design experience of the combustion chamber of the same type of low-thrust engine. Throat cross-sectional diameter dt=4.24 mm. Calculated by flow density method, the combustion chamber diameter dc=12.5 mm is obtained. The arc radius Rct of the nozzle inlet is selected to be 20mm, the radius Rc1=0.83 Dt of the upstream section of the throat, and the radius Rc2=0.41 Dt of the downstream section of the throat.
In order to achieve the highest nozzle efficiency and the highest thrust, a 50N engine nozzle diffusion section is designed by adopting a characteristic line method. In this embodiment, the design point height is 120km, and the nozzle expansion ratio epsilon=81, the nozzle diffuser expansion half angle βk=32°, and the outlet expansion angle βe=8° are selected according to the design point height and the geometric installation size constraint of the thrust chamber. From the above calculation steps, 50N engine thrust chamber profile dimensions are designed as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
The expansion section of the 700N thrust chamber combustion chamber adopts the design of the maximum thrust jet pipe, and the main design parameters of the jet pipe are shown in Table 6.

And S4, performing simulation calculation on the engine thrust chamber, and verifying whether the performance of the engine thrust chamber meets the requirement.
Modeling is carried out by means of simulation software, simulation verification is carried out on the flow trace of the fuel in the inner cavity of the nozzle, and the flow field pressure cloud picture of the fuel nozzle of the 50N engine can be obtained, wherein the inlet pressure of the nozzle is 0.653MPa and basically coincides with the design value of 0.65 MPa.
And meanwhile, verifying the integral, tangential and axial velocity cloud patterns of the flow length in the fuel nozzle, wherein the velocity distribution accords with the actual physical process of the flow of the liquid propelling in the flow field in the centrifugal nozzle.
Simulation analysis is performed through a liquid phase distribution cloud picture of the inner cavity of the fuel nozzle, and it is determined that a conical air cavity is formed at the center of the outlet section of the nozzle under the action of cyclone centrifugation.
For a low-thrust liquid rocket engine, common body heat protection schemes include regenerative cooling, liquid film cooling, passive ablative cooling and the like, and the most applied is a radiation cooling scheme in the field of attitude control engines. Referring to the technical scheme of the same type at present, the thrust chamber body heat protection scheme is selected to be liquid film cooling. The body is made of Nb521, the inner wall is coated with r625 coating, and the thickness of the coating is 80-120 mu m, so that the anti-oxidation and ablation effects can be achieved.
The structural strength simulation software is adopted to simulate and calculate the stress of the body, under the condition that the working pressure of the inner cavity of the thrust chamber is 2MPa, the stress distribution of the inner cavity of the thrust chamber is verified under the conditions that the pressure of the inner cavity of the thrust chamber is 5MPa and the pressure of the inner cavity of the thrust chamber is 10MPa, the structural maximum stress of the shell of the thrust chamber under two working conditions is 29.57MPa and 59.17MPa respectively, and the structural maximum stress is far lower than the tensile strength (sigma b-1600 is more than or equal to 150 MPa) of the Nb521 material at 1600 ℃.
In addition, stress conditions of the injector under various conditions are simulated, and a 4.1MPa hydraulic pressure intensity test, a 2.7MPa inner cavity starting hydraulic impact hydraulic pressure intensity test and stress and deformation analysis of hydraulic chamber pressures of an inner cavity 2.7MPa and a panel 2.0MPa when an engine works are respectively carried out.
The maximum stress point stress of the head under three conditions is calculated to be 38.4MPa, 67.6MPa and 36.6MPa respectively, and the corresponding safety coefficients are 23.2, 13.16 (tensile strength 890MPa in cold state) and 15.57 (tensile strength 570MPa in 400 ℃) respectively, and meanwhile, the deformation under various working conditions is very small, so that the 700N injector structure design is proved to have enough safety margin.
Through the scheme stage of attack and research, the technical indexes which can be achieved by the power system at present are shown in table 7. Besides the engine thrust deviation and the flight reliability index do not meet the overall requirements, other indexes meet the overall requirements, and the initial sample stage is to be subjected to test verification.
