Y.L. Koroleva, A.I. Khokhlov, D.A. Nikolaev, N.V. Borisova, M.G. Matylenko

Статья научная

The aim of the study is to form an approach to modeling the operations of the orbital assembly of a reconfigurable spacecraft (RS) in geostationary orbit. Reconfigurable spacecraft are a set of modular spacecraft (MS), where, in a particular case, one MS can be assigned the functions of the service systems module (MSS), and the second - the functions of the payload module (MPN). To ensure the assembly of the RC, or the replacement of some MC, for example, in case of its failure with a new one, it is necessary to provide a solution to the problem of bringing the MS with the RS. The article analyzes and studies the operation of the motion control system of the MS during the convergence of the MS with the RS. A list of necessary mathematical models for performing operations in solving the problem of convergence of the MS with the RS is formed, and a block diagram of the interaction of mathematical models is presented. The paper presents a brief description of the mathematical apparatus that allows modeling the operations of convergence of the MS with the RS. This mathematical apparatus includes: a model of the orbital motion of the MS and the RS, models of the angular motion of the MS and the RS, sensitive elements and executive bodies. In this paper, the mathematical modeling of the MS with the RS convergence operations is considered as the subject of research. The object of the study is the motion control system of the MS, which ensures the implementation of the approach of the RS in geostationary orbit.

Formation of the structure, mechanical and tribological properties of high chrome steel by electronic-ion-plasma nitrogen

Eresko S.P., Ivanov Yu.F., Petrikova Ye.A., Teresov A.D., Klopotov A.A.

Статья научная

The purpose of this work is to detect the regularities of formation of the structure, mechanical and tribological properties of high-chromium steel subjected to complex treatment combining irradiation with a pulsed electron beam and subsequent nitriding in a low-pressure gas discharge plasma using a plasma generator with an incandescent cathode “PINK”. The object of the study was heat-resistant corrosionresistant austenitic steel grade AISI 310S. The relevance and practical significance of the research is due to the relatively low level of hardness and wear resistance of steels of this class, which have a wide range of applications in modern industry, including in the rocket and space industry. Irradiation of AISI 310S steel with a pulsed electron beam was carried out at the SOLO installation, subsequent nitriding (the QUINTA installation). It was found that irradiation of samples at an electron beam energy density of 30 J/cm2, 200 microseconds, 3 pulses and subsequent nitriding at a temperature of 793 K for 3 hours led to the following changes in mechanical properties. The maximum microhardness reached values of 19 GPa (exceeds the hardness of steel before modification by 11.2 times and the hardness of steel after electron beam irradiation by 8 times). The wear parameter has changed to values k = 0.7106 mm3/Nm (less than the wear parameter of steel before modification by more than 700 times and less than the wear parameter of steel after electron beam irradiation by more than 750 times). The thickness of the hardened layer is 40 microns. It was found that the samples that have the maximum (90.6 %) content of nitride phases (chromium and iron nitrides) in the surface layer. It was established that after nitriding at a temperature of 723 K in the surface layer of steel, iron and chromium nitrides are formed in the form of nanoscale particles of rounded shape. At nitriding temperatures of 793 and 873 K, a plate-type structure formed by alternating parallel plates of iron nitride and chromium nitride is formed in the surface layer of steel.

Generalized equivalent strength conditions in the calculations of composite bodies

Generalized equivalent strength conditions in the calculations of composite bodies

Matveev A.D.

Статья научная

Structures with an inhomogeneous regular structure (plates, beams, shells) are widely used in engineering, especially in aviation and rocket and space. It is important to know the solution error in the strength elastic calculations for composite structures using the finite element method (FEM),. To analyze the error of the solution, it is necessary to use a sequence of approximate solutions constructed according to the FEM using the grinding procedure for basic discrete models that take into account the non-homogeneous, micro-homogeneous structure of structures (bodies) within the micro-approach. The implementation of the grinding procedure for basic models requires large computer resources. This paper deals with the method of equivalent strength conditions (MESC) for testing the static strength of elastic bodies with an inhomogeneous regular structure, for which sets of different loads are given. According to the MESC, the calculation of the strength of a composite body for which the loading is set is reduced to the calculation of the strength of an isotropic homogeneous body (having the same loading as a composite body) using equivalent strength conditions. In the numerical implementation of the MESC, adjusted equivalent strength conditions are used, which take into account the error of approximate solutions. Here, the MESC is implemented on the basis of the FEM. If a set of different loads is specified for a composite body, then generalized equivalent strength conditions are applied in this case. The procedure for constructing generalized equivalent strength conditions is shown. The calculation of the strength of composite bodies according to the MESC using multigrid finite elements requires 3 6 10 ÷ 10 times less computer memory than a similar calculation using crushed basic models of composite bodies. The given example of calculating the strength of a composite beam, for which a number of loads is set with MESC using generalized equivalent strength conditions shows its high efficiency.

Gradient boosting method application to support process decisions in the electron-beam welding process

V. S. Tynchenko, I. A. Golovenok, V. E. Petrenko, A. V. Milov, A. V. Murygin

Статья научная

The purpose of the study is to develop a technological process mathematical model of creating permanent joints of dissimilar materials based on electron-beam welding using machine learning algorithms. Each of the connected elements is a responsible unit of the complex device, due to this fact, strict criteria are set for the quality of the welded joint. In essence, the set task is a regression task. There are many algorithms suitable for solving the regression problem. However, often the use of one algorithm does not provide sufficient accuracy of the result. One way to solve this problem is to develop a composition of algorithms to compensate for the prob-lems of each of them. One of the most effective and potent compositional algorithms is the gradient boosting al-gorithm. This algorithm use will improve the quality of the regression model. The proposed model will allow the technologist to set the process parameters and to get an assessment of the final product quality, as well as by setting input and output values. The use of assessment methods and forecasting will reduce the time and labor costs of searching, developing and adjusting the process. A description of the gradient boosting algorithm is given, as well as an analysis of the applicability of this algorithm to the model and a conclusion regarding the areas of its applicability and the reliability of the forecasts obtained by its direct use. In addition, we consider the process of direct model training based on the data obtained as part of search experiments to improve the quality of final product. The results of the applicability analysis allow us to judge the admissibility of using the proposed method for processes that have similar statistical dependencies. The application of the proposed ap-proach will make it possible to support the adoption of technological decisions by specialists in electron-beam welding during the development of the technological process and when new types of products are put into pro-duction.

Heat transfer in the centrifugal force field for gas turbines elements

Heat transfer in the centrifugal force field for gas turbines elements

A. A. Zuev, A. A. Arngold, E. V. Khodenkova

Статья научная

The study of heat transfer from combustion products (CP) to the impeller and the casing of gas turbines of liquid rocket engines (LRE) is an urgent task. The solution of the flow problem, taking into account heat transfer, in rotational flows, in the flowing parts of the turbopump units (TPU) of the rocket engine, is carried out by the following methods: numerical methods; analytical approach, when solving the equations of dynamic and temperature boundary layers; as well as using empirical dependencies. The temperature parameter of the gaseous combustion products and, as a consequence, the heat exchange between the combustion products and the structural elements of the flow part, significantly affects the working and energy characteristics of the TPU LRE. When designing gas turbines of LRE, it is necessary to take into account the presence of heat exchange processes, the working fluid temperature distribution and the structural element temperatures in the cavities of the TPU LRE (since energy losses and viscosity depend on the temperatures of the working fluid, and also determine the flow parameters). The temperature distribution in the structural elements determines the performance and reliability of the unit. In the case of the use of cryogenic fuel components in the TPU LRE units the heating of the component leads to the implementation of cavitation modes and a drop in operating and energy characteristics. On the other hand, a lowered temperature of the working fluid leads to an increased viscosity of the components and, as a consequence, a decrease in the efficiency of the unit (especially when using gel-like components). When studying heat transfer in the field of centrifugal forces for elements of rocket engine gas turbines it is necessary to obtain a joint solution of the equations of dynamic and temperature boundary layers in the boundary conditions of the flow parts. This article offers a model of the distribution of dynamic and temperature boundary layers taking into account the convective component (for the case of a gaseous working fluid, i. e. Pr < 1), which is necessary for the analytical solution and determination of the heat transfer coefficient in the boundary conditions of the flow cavities of the LRE turbine. The energy equation has been analytically obtained for the boundary conditions of the temperature boundary layer, which allows integration over the surface of any shape, which is necessary in determining the thickness of the energy loss. Taking into account the integral relation, the heat transfer law of the turbulent boundary layer for the rotation cavities is written. The equations for determining the heat transfer coefficient in the form of the Stanton criterion for rectilinear uniform and rotational flows for cases of turbulent flow regimes were obtained analytically. The obtained equations for heat transfer coefficients are in good agreement with experimental data and dependences of other authors.

Rudenko M. S., Mikheev A. E., Girn A. V.

Статья научная

The honeycomb filler is an integral part of the spacecraft's sandwich panel. Currently, a honeycomb filler made of aluminum alloys is used. The proposed technology makes it possible to replace the honeycomb filler material from aluminum alloys with polymer composite materials (PCM). The main difference between the developed technology for the production of honeycomb filler by the RTM method is that corrugated tape is glued during the formation of the composite material. This is a separate process in the existing methods for the production of honeycomb cores from PCM. This paper presents the results of creating a prototype of a honeycomb filler by the RTM-method, a technological process has been developed.

Identification and simulation mathematical model of thermo and physical loading of a small-caliber artillery barrel

Podkopaev A.V., Babadzhanov A.B., Podkopaev I.A., Dolzhikov V.I.

Статья научная

An artillery shot is a complex gas and thermodynamic process of rapidly converting the chemical energy of gunpowder into heat, and then into mechanical work of moving the projectile and the recoil parts of the artillery gun. A distinctive feature of the use of aviation artillery weapons is the short time during which firing from an aircraft at a target is possible, which requires the production of not one artillery shot, but the firing of the maximum number of shells with minimal interruptions between bursts of shots. An analysis of the existing physical concepts of the processes occurring in a small-caliber artillery barrel (hereinafter referred to as the barrel) makes it possible to single out the main quantitative characteristic of the temperature state that affects the quality of the functioning of aviation artillery weapons – the temperature field of the barrel. The temperature field, high in level and gradients, formed in the barrel wall during firing, bursts and series of shots, has a significant impact on the reduction in the tactical, technical and operational characteristics of aviation artillery weapons. Therefore, the problem of synthesizing a mathematical model of thermophysical loading of a wellbore (hereinafter referred to as the model if it is clear from the context of material presentation that we are talking about the developed model) and the definition of the temperature field is of great importance for solving a number of practical applications. These include: assessment of bore wear depending on heating; analysis of the thermal strength of the barrel material; analysis of the conditions of projectile guidance along the bore and cartridge case extraction during firing; evaluation of various ways and methods of artificial cooling of shafts; determination of the safety of aviation artillery weapons by eliminating the event of self-activation of a thermally loaded cartridge located in a barrel heated by firing; ensuring the conditions for maintaining the operability of fuses, etc. At the same time, an adequate calculation of non-stationary heat transfer in the bore is difficult, due to the incomplete reliability of the initial data and the dynamics of fast processes in the use of aviation artillery weapons. The aim of the work is to improve mathematical tools that describe the thermodynamic states of the barrel based on the basic functional dependencies of internal ballistics and a dispersed combination of heat transfer methods and finite differences. Numerous and comprehensive testing of the synthesized model, comparison of the calculation results with the data of the classical theory, self-similar solutions and experimental data confirmed the reliability and predetermined the sufficient suitability of the model for its intended use as the objects of research become more complex.

Статья научная

Different composite elements including tubular structures are used as support structures in spacecraft optical systems. The compliance with the specified dimensional stability over a wide temperature range, in particular from –269 up to 100 °C, is important for the design of tubular structures. The promising method of manufacturing tubular structures of CM – radial braiding combined with RTM molding method is discussed in this paper. In addition, the paper describes the method of determining the optimal reinforcement technique for a braided perform which allows to reduce geometrical deflections occurring during a molding process. The impact of the reinforcement technique on the dimensional stability of tubular structures is illustrated in this paper by the example of several reinforcement techniques and manufacturing methods. The paper also contains the analysis of these techniques and the determination of the optimal one to comply with the specified characteristics.

Статья научная

Bismuth stannates Bi2Sn2–хFeхO7, х = 0,1; 0,2, which reveal the properties of multiferroics, are investigated. The mechanism of interaction between dielectric and electronic subsystems is studied, based on measurements of electrical resistance at alternating current, impedance, capacitance and dielectric loss tangent in the temperature range 100–600 K at frequencies 102–106 Hz. From the comparison of dielectric permittivity and the reactive component of impedance, the paramagnetic contribution of electrons to the dynamic magnetic susceptibility was established. Impedance jumps on temperature were detected as a result of changes in structural characteristics. The temperature dependences of the permittivity are described in the Debye model. The activation character of relaxation time and two relaxation channels are found. The activation energy of electrons in the migratory polarization is calculated.

V.V. Koshlakov, S.V. Mosolov, A.G. Klimenko, E.Sh. Akbulatov, V.P. Nazarov, E.V. Gerasimov

Статья научная

Creating the spacecraft propulsion systems with high energy efficiency and minimal weight and size parameters is an urgent scientific and technical task of the domestic rocket engine industry. At the same time, requirements are put forward to optimize the cost and time of design, development and manufacturing of engines, as well as environmental safety at all stages of the product life cycle. In this regard, it is proposed to use advanced laser 3D printing technologies (additive technologies) from metal powder using CAD models of engine parts in the production of space low thrust rocket engines (LTRE). Laser melting technology on modern 3D printers makes it possible to produce complex monolithic engine structures without the use of labor-intensive and resource-intensive operations of machining, welding, and soldering, as well as a significant reduction in the volume of fitting and assembly operations, control and measuring work, and a decrease in the influence of some non-production factors. The article discusses issues of practical application of promising technologies in the creation of LTRE. The results of fire tests are presented, which will be used to refine the previously developed calculation models of oxygen-hydrogen LTRE when creating advanced rocket engines for spacecraft. The object of the study was an experimental sample of LTRE with a nominal thrust of 150 N using gaseous propellant components oxygen and hydrogen, developed and manufactured using additive technology. The experimental LTRE is considered as a prototype of the engine for orientation, stabilization and launching of the oxygen-hydrogen upper stage. The purpose of the work is to study the effectiveness of previously unexplored design solutions for organizing mixture formation and cooling of an oxygen-hydrogen LTRE, to determine their influence on the perfection of the working process and the thermal state of the engine chamber. Fire tests were carried out in single switching mode with a duration sufficient for the LTRE chamber to reach a stationary thermal regime, with the determination of the energy characteristics and thermal state of the structure.

Improvement of the construction technique of substitution blocks for symmetric encryption algorithms

Improvement of the construction technique of substitution blocks for symmetric encryption algorithms

Merinov A. S., Nesterov K. A., Zhdanov O. N.

Статья научная

As it is known, block symmetric encryption algorithms are widely used to ensure information confidentiality. The resistance of encryption algorithms to the most common types of cryptanalysis is determined the quality of the blocks of substitutions. In the present work, the development of a methodology for constructing substitution blocks is being continued. In the first approach, Boolean functions with given cryptographic properties are used as component functions of substitution blocks. Previously, one of the authors proposed a reasonable methodology for the phased selection of Boolean functions for construction block. In this paper, in addition to such cryptographic properties of Boolean functions, such as: balance, possessing a strict avalanche effect, possessing correlation immunity, for the first time the nonlinearity distances of the first and second orders of Boolean functions are considered simultaneously. A study of the full set of Boolean functions of four variables was conducted. The result of it is the optimal set of Boolean functions for building substitution blocks when encrypted with the GOST 28147-89 algorithm. In the second approach, the substitution block are determined by an irreducible polynomial over the Galois field, such a scheme, used in the Rijndael encryption algorithm, is considered to be strong. The growth of calculating power of the computer necessitates an increase of the cryptographic strength of encryption algorithms. The authors have proposed substitution blocks for each round of the Rijndael scheme, based on different irreducible polynomials. A study of compositions representing a different combination of specially selected irreducible polynomials for ten rounds was carried out and the optimal set of polynomials with the best values of the encryption quality indicators by the Rijndael scheme was obtained.

Improving the security of wireless communication channels for unmanned aerial vehicles by creating false information fields

Improving the security of wireless communication channels for unmanned aerial vehicles by creating false information fields

Basan E.S., Proshkin N.A., Silin O.I.

Статья научная

To date, the problems associated with the safety of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are quite acute. As a rule, when it comes to commercial small-sized UAVs, wireless communication channels are used to con-trol them. Most often, communication is implemented at a frequency of 2.4 GHz using the Wi-Fi protocol. Such a UAV is quite easy to detect by analyzing the radio frequency range or the data link layer. An attack-er, however, may not even have specialized equipment and use open source software. The detected UAV becomes the target for attacks. If it is known that the UAV operates as a wireless access point, then all Wi-Fi-specific attacks become relevant for the UAV. In this study, it is proposed to use the technology of creat-ing false information fields as the first line of defense to increase the resistance of the UAV to attacks. This technology will allow to hide a legitimate UAV communication channel behind a lot of fake ones. The goal is to create fake access points with the characteristics of real ones and emulate data transmission over the channels on which these access points are deployed. In addition to the fact that the technology allows to hide a legitimate UAV communication channel, it will also allow to mislead the attacker. It is important to make the intruder think that not a single UAV is approaching him, but a group. If the intruder attempts to attack decoys, attacker will compromise himself and be able to be detected. Thus, you can use the UAV as a bait. As a result of the pilot study, channels were identified on which the creation of fake access points is most effective. Using small computing power and the necessary antenna, you can achieve high results. This article demonstrates the effectiveness of creating 9 fake access points. A comparison was also made with real wireless network traffic. We can say that the emulated activity is quite close to the real activity.

Increasing software reliability of a distributed control systems

Increasing software reliability of a distributed control systems

Strelavina O.D., Efimov S.N., Terskov V.A., Likharev M.A.

Статья научная

The article considers a method of assessing and improving main parameters of the computer network efficiency. Reliability is the main criteria for ensuring the required performance of distributed control systems. To improve reliability of the computer network hardware and software redundancy are used. Software redundancy requires new versions to be developed for software modules in which failures are likely to occur. The article considers the N-version programming and recovery block as methods of introducing software redundancy and, taking the need to develop multiple versions of the same software module into account, estimates the costs of network software development. To implement the proposed approach article presents mathematical reliability model that takes into consideration the architecture of a computer network software and the labor costs that its development is going to require. This model becomes a basis for a software created to research computer network software reliability, which allows finding the dependence of network software reliability on the number of one of its software module versions. Comparison of the dynamics changes of reliability indicators and labor intensity of software development indicated a sufficient amount of software module versions that need to be developed. The article concludes by pointing out the importance of determining the labor intensity of network software development and of its usage in the design of a computer networks in which reliability is increased through software redundancy.

Increasing the capabilities of a test ballistic missile to separate test objects

Increasing the capabilities of a test ballistic missile to separate test objects

Minyaev S.I.

Статья научная

The subject of this study is the trajectory characteristics of the long-range test ballistic missile (TBM). The purpose of the study is to increase the capabilities of TBM in separating test object (TO). At the same time, as a generalized quantitative measure of this increasing, the post-boost vehicle (PBV) fuel reserve consumed for separation of TO is studied. The design-ballistic task of rationalizing the distribution of the available fuel of the TBM PBV between the following main characteristic section of its flight has been set and numerically and analytically solved: final sustainer stage undershoot compensation; turns with subsequent angular stabilization, retreats and lead away; TO disconnection (separation section). As a result, it is shown that without reducing the quality of TBM launch tasks, it is permissible to redistribute the consumed fuel of the PBV between these section relative to the distribution for a standard ballistic missile (SBM), leading to a significant increase in its reserve consumed in the section of disconnection of the TO (when flying along the ballistic vertical). At the same time, the purpose of the study is achieved – the capabilities of the TBM in the separation of the TO are increased, which, while direct planning of launches is evaluating, can be expressed in an increase in the number and/or total mass of the TO and/or an increase in speed or time intervals in the order of sequential disconnections of the TO. The given numerical examples (using a converted three-stage SBM as a TBM) also show a significant dependence of the amount of fuel increment of the PBV consumed at the TO disconnections of the trajectory conditions of test launches (the corresponding initial data (ID) for calculations are borrowed from the author’s previously published work): length of the route; kinematic parameters of launch at the moment of independent PBV flight beginning determined by the launch task. During the study, methods of flight theory and design ballistics of LR (long range) missiles were used. As a conclusion, it can be noted that the considered task and methods for its solution can be useful (of course, taking into account the necessary specialized improvements) in works of the executive ballistics level when planning and evaluating the result of TBM launches.

Increasing the efficiency of bladeless fans by applying longitudinal cylindrical grooves on the diffuser walls

Increasing the efficiency of bladeless fans by applying longitudinal cylindrical grooves on the diffuser walls

Bryzgunov P.A., Grigorov V.A., Grishin L.E.

Статья научная

The paper investigates the possibility of increasing the efficiency of bladeless fans by applying longitudinal cylindrical grooves to the inner walls of the diffuser. Bladeless fans, which are jet pumptype superchargers, show promise as propulsion systems for small aircraft with electric and gas turbine engines. The key parameter determining their efficiency is the flow entrainment ratio, which depends on the geometry and aerodynamic quality of the air passage. In this study, we perform numerical simulations to assess how the geometric parameters of the cylindrical grooves affect the fan’s aerodynamic performance. We consider the diameters of the arcs forming the grooves (3, 6, and 9 mm) and the angular step of their placement (2°, 4°, and 6°) as variable parameters. We carry out aerodynamic calculations in a threedimensional periodic setup using the ANSYS CFX software package with the k-ω SST turbulence model. Our results show that, at a fixed total pressure at the outlet of the annular gap, the primary airflow rate remains constant across all configurations. The highest efficiency occurs with a groove diameter of 6 mm and an angular pitch of 2°: in this case, the secondary airflow increases by 2 %, and thrust rises by 4 % compared to the base model without grooves. We analyze turbulent kinetic energy fields and visualize vortex structures, revealing that this configuration produces the lowest turbulence intensity and smallest vortex scales in the nearwall region, which enhances momentum transfer from the jet to the surrounding air. Grooves with a smaller diameter (3 mm) have almost no effect on performance, while larger grooves (9 mm) increase flow turbulence and reduce efficiency. Engineers can use these findings to develop highly efficient propulsion systems for unmanned aerial vehicles.

Increasing the period of active use of on-board electronic equipment of spacecraft

Increasing the period of active use of on-board electronic equipment of spacecraft

Timofeev A.L., Sultanov A.Kh., Meshkov I.K., Gizatulin A.R.

Статья научная

For electronic equipment of space systems, and primarily memory devices, the task of protection from the effects of ionizing cosmic radiation and other external factors that distort stored and processed information is relevant. This paper proposes a holographic coding method that allows to restore information in the event of a large number of errors. The method is based on recording into memory, instead of the original digital hologram data, a virtual digital object corresponding to a data block. The divisibility property of a hologram is used, which makes it possible to reconstruct a recorded data block from its fragment. The achieved level of noise immunity is determined by the size of the hologram. For an 8-bit data block, recording a 256-bit hologram provides information recovery if 75 % of the recorded hologram is lost. The developed decoder corrects a package of dependent (grouping) errors that distort all bits of the hologram. The number of random independent errors that the decoder corrects can be up to 40 % of the recorded information. The information storage system, resistant to ionizing radiation, is a memory array of increased capacity, taking into account the selected redundancy factor, and a memory controller that performs holographic encoding when recording information and decoding with automatic error correction when reading information. The operating algorithm of the controller itself can be implemented in the form of a programmable logic integrated circuit, or stored in a read-only memory device that is not affected by ionizing radiation.

Increasing the positioning accuracy of the GLONASS system

Increasing the positioning accuracy of the GLONASS system

Timofeev A.L., Sultanov A.Kh., Meshkov I.K., Gizatulin A.R.

Статья научная

The accuracy of determining coordinates in global positioning systems is determined by the number of satellites simultaneously visible to the consumer's navigation equipment. Over most of the earth's surface, there are up to 11 GLONASS satellites above the horizon at the same time, but the signal-to-noise ratio in the communication channel required for error-free information reception is often ensured only for 2-4 satellites. To improve the positioning accuracy, it is proposed to use the holographic noise-immune coding method based on the holographic representation of the digital signal. The message coding process is a mathematical modeling of a hologram created in virtual space by a wave from the input signal source. It is shown that the holographic representation of the signal has significantly greater noise immunity and allows restoring the original digital combination when most of the code message is lost and when the coded signal is distorted by noise several times exceeding the signal level. The studies have shown that the introduction of holographic coding in the GLONASS satellite communication channel will enable consumer navigation equipment to receive information from a larger number of satellites, which will significantly improve the positioning accuracy. In a common situation where the required signal-to-noise ratio is maintained for only 4 GLONASS satellites, the positioning error exceeds 10 meters. Using holographic coding in the same situation, information from 9 satellites will be decoded without error, and the positioning error will be about 2 meters.

Increasing the specific impulse of an oxygen-hydrogen liquid rocket engine by in-creasing heat transfer in the combustion chamber

Increasing the specific impulse of an oxygen-hydrogen liquid rocket engine by in-creasing heat transfer in the combustion chamber

Vasilevsky D.O.

Статья научная

Liquid-propellant rocket engines (LPRE), operating according to a gas-free generator scheme, are used for the upper stages of launch vehicles and upper stages. In engines of this scheme, only cryogenic fuel is used, which provides a high engine STI. Also, a distinctive feature is the absence of a gas generator, the combustion generators of which feed the turbine of the main turbopump unit. In the gas-free LPRE scheme, the turbine is driven by gas-return hydrogen heated in the cooling loop. Therefore, the high parameters of the LRE, such as the pressure in the CC, the thrust of the engine and the specific thrust pulse depend on the effective heat removal from the firing wall of the combustion chamber and the intensification of heat ex-change in the cooling path. There is a number of solutions that allow to increase the amount of heat transferred to the refrigerant in the inter-shirt space. Therefore, the search for an optimal cooling scheme and promising design solutions for the intensification of heat transfer in the engine cooling path will allow us to determine the high param-eters of the LPRE. This article discusses the effect on the thermal state of the combustion chamber of the gas fins installed on the firing wall of the engine. Gas fins belong to the developed heat exchange surfaces and increase the area of the side surface of the combustion chamber. With the help of the developed mathematical model of the cooling chamber of a gas-free LRE, extremes in the intensification of heat exchange in the cooling path have been identified. The dependences of the specific thrust impulse of the engine on the pressure in the combustion chamber and the geometric dimensions of the engine are also obtained.
