In liquid rocket engines, after the liquid propellant enters the thrust chamber, it may be possible that upon ignition, the liquid propellant is largely vaporized, resulting in uncontrolled combustion of this vaporized liquid, which in turn results in the thrust chamber head casing being burned through. Therefore, it is desirable to design a safe and reliable liquid engine.
One aspect of the present invention provides a liquid engine. Referring to fig. 1, the liquid engine comprises a thrust chamber, first storage means for storing a coolant (not shown, the location of the storage means is not particularly limited to minimize the arrangement of other components of the engine), and a liquid collection structure 4 provided at the head casing of the thrust chamber. Wherein the thrust chamber comprises a chamber 2 and a housing 3 forming the chamber 2, the housing 3 comprises a head housing located at a head position of the thrust chamber, the liquid collecting structure 4 is arranged on the head housing 3, and the liquid collecting structure 4 and the first storage device are communicated with each other. According to the invention, the liquid collecting structure is arranged outside the thrust chamber head shell, so that the temperature of the thrust chamber shell can be reduced, and the liquid gasification phenomenon of the thrust chamber head is weakened or eliminated, thereby preventing the thrust chamber head shell from being damaged or burnt through after the engine is ignited, and improving the working reliability of the engine.
In this embodiment, for example, a nozzle (not shown) is further included below the thrust chamber shown in fig. 1, so that after the combustion of the combustion chamber, the fuel and the oxidant are ejected downward through the nozzle communicating with the combustion chamber to generate the reverse thrust.
The liquid collecting structure 4 is provided in the thrust chamber head housing 3, and may be a condensation pipe directly contacting with the thrust chamber head housing 3, or may be a structure that forms a liquid flow channel together with the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3. For example, in the case where the liquid collecting structure 4 is a condensation pipe, the number of the condensation pipe may be one or more. For example, the plurality of condensation tubes may be wound outside the thrust chamber head housing 3 in a parallel, overlapping, or intersecting manner. For example, the flow passage size of the same condensation tube may be the same or different, thereby achieving different cooling capacities. For example, a different number of condenser tubes may be provided at different locations outside the thrust chamber head housing 3. Specifically, more condensation pipes may be densely arranged at a portion where the thrust chamber head housing 3 is heated more, and fewer condensation pipes may be arranged at a position where the thrust chamber head housing 3 is heated less.
For example, as shown in fig. 1, in the case where the liquid collecting structure 4 forms a liquid flow passage together with the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3 of the engine, the liquid collecting structure 4 may be, for example, a structure having a groove, so that the inner surface of the concave structure and the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3 may form a passage suitable for the flow of the coolant together by disposing the side of the groove having the concave structure along the surface of the thrust chamber head housing (the liquid collecting structure shown in fig. 1 is formed in this manner). For example, for the liquid collecting structure with the concave structure, the concave part can be enlarged as much as possible, and the material of other parts can be thinned, so that the capacity of containing the cooling liquid is improved, and the weight of the engine is reduced. Further, for example, the notch can be a U-shaped notch or a V-shaped notch, so that the shape of the cooling liquid in the liquid collecting structure is improved, and the cooling effect on the engine thrust chamber head shell is improved. For example, the liquid collecting structure may be another structure as long as it is provided on the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3 and then forms a flow passage suitable for the flow of liquid with the outer surface of the housing. For example, the flow passage may be a closed flow passage, that is, only including an inlet and an outlet of the coolant, so as to prevent the coolant from volatilizing or overflowing from the engine liquid when the engine is in operation, and ensure the cooling performance of the coolant and the safety of the engine.
Furthermore, the liquid collecting structure 4 may be in communication with the first storage means in, for example, a two-way communication. So that the cooling liquid in the storage device can flow out of the storage device along one of the branches and into the liquid collecting structure 4. For example, after the cooling liquid has cooled the thrust chamber head casing, the cooling liquid may flow out of the liquid collection structure and return to the storage device along another branch, thereby achieving circulation of the cooling liquid between the storage device and the liquid collection structure 3, and further reducing the temperature of the thrust chamber head casing 3 through circulation of the cooling liquid.
Referring to fig. 2, for example, the engine enters the liquid collection structure 4 through a coolant inlet 7 penetrating the thrust chamber connection surface 8 and flows along the inside of the liquid collection structure 4, thereby cooling the thrust chamber head housing 3, and then flows out from a coolant outlet 9 penetrating the thrust chamber connection surface 8 to return to the first storage device. Obviously, the inlet 7 of the cooling liquid may communicate with the interior of the liquid collecting structure 4, and the outlet 9 of the cooling liquid may communicate with the interior of the liquid collecting structure 4 from the other side of the liquid collecting structure 4. For example, a first storage means may be provided on the side of the thrust chamber connection face 8 remote from the thrust chamber (not shown in the figures) and connected by a pipe to the inlet 7 of the cooling liquid and by another pipe to the outlet 9 of the cooling liquid, so as to facilitate the circulation of the cooling liquid between the liquid collection structure 4 and the first storage means.
With continued reference to fig. 1 and 2, for example, in one embodiment, the liquid collecting structure 4 is circumferentially disposed on the outer side of the head housing 3, and the liquid collecting structure 3 is recessed from a side close to the head housing 3 to a side away from the head housing 3, so that an inner surface (a surface of the recessed portion) of the liquid collecting structure 4 and an outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3 may form an annular flow passage for the flow of the cooling liquid. In this case, the coolant flows through the entire annular flow passage after flowing from the storage device into the annular passage through the coolant inlet 7, thereby reducing the temperature of the thrust chamber head housing 3 through sufficient heat exchange with the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3. The cooling fluid is then returned to the storage device through the cooling fluid outlet 9 for cooling. According to the embodiment of the invention, the annular flow channel is directly formed by the inner surface of the liquid collection structure and the outer surface of the head shell of the thrust chamber, so that the cooling liquid can directly exchange heat with the head shell, and the heat exchange effect of the head shell of the thrust chamber is improved.
In this embodiment, for example, the inner surface of the liquid collecting structure 4 may be an uneven structure. Specifically, the inner surface of the liquid collecting structure 4 may include a screw structure or a structure of a plurality of minute flow passages provided along the inner surface. Thereby slow down the velocity of flow of coolant liquid through collection liquid structure unevenness's internal surface, increase the heat exchange time of coolant liquid and casing 3, improve the heat exchange effect.
Referring to fig. 3, in one embodiment, the inner surface of the liquid collecting structure 4 comprises a side surface 41 and a bottom surface 42, wherein the side surface 41 is disposed facing the outer surface of the housing 3, and the bottom surface 42 connects the side surface 41 and the outer surface. That is, the side surface 41 is provided at a distance from the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3, and the bottom surface 42 forms a passage for the flow of the cooling liquid by connecting the side surface 41 and the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3. Because the liquid collecting structure 4 comprises the bottom surface 42, the distance between the part of the side surface 41 close to the bottom surface 42 and the outer surface of the thrust chamber head shell 3 is increased, so that the volume of the flow channel is increased, the amount of the cooling liquid contained in the flow channel is increased, and the cooling effect is improved.
It is noted that, as shown in fig. 3, the thrust chamber includes a connecting portion 8 (i.e., the connecting surface referred to above) for connecting with other components. For example, the transverse dimension of the connecting portion 8 (in the direction shown by C-C1 in the figures) is greater than the transverse dimension of the portion of the thrust chamber housing 3, so that one of the surfaces of the above-mentioned flow channels can be constituted by the surface of the connecting portion 8 close to the liquid collecting structure 4, so that the annular flow channel is constituted by the surface of the connecting portion 8, the inner surface of the liquid collecting structure 4 and the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3 together. Further, as shown in fig. 3, the inlet 7 and the outlet 9 for the inlet and outlet of the cooling liquid are also communicated with the flow passage of the cooling liquid through the through connection portion.
In this embodiment, for example, the distance from the side surface 41 to the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3 may gradually increase in a direction from the side surface 41 toward the bottom surface 42 (i.e., in a direction from top to bottom in the drawing). This is because, above the flow channels shown in the figures, the housing 3 is correspondingly less subject to hot back-immersion and therefore the cooling liquid can be relatively small. On the other hand, the amount of coolant can be relatively large because the heat sink is more exposed at the lower portion of the casing 3 constituting the flow path. According to the embodiment of the invention, the upper width and the lower width of the flow channel are different, so that the flow channel corresponding to the part of the shell which is heated and reversely soaked is wider, the temperature distribution of the head shell of the thrust chamber is more uniform through differential cooling of the head shell of the thrust chamber, and the safety of the head shell of the thrust chamber is protected.
In one embodiment, the first storage device includes a first liquid inlet and a first liquid outlet, the liquid collecting structure 4 includes a second liquid inlet and a second liquid outlet, the first liquid outlet is used for communicating with the second liquid inlet, the second liquid outlet is used for communicating with the first liquid inlet, and the second liquid inlet and the second liquid outlet are arranged far away from each other outside the thrust chamber housing 3. According to the embodiment of the invention, the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet of the liquid collecting structure arranged outside the thrust chamber shell are arranged far away from each other, so that the flow path of cooling liquid in the flow channel can be increased, the heat exchange time is prolonged, and the cooling effect on the thrust chamber shell is improved.
It should be noted that, in the case where the liquid collecting structure 4 disposed outside the thrust chamber head housing 3 is a condenser tube, the distance between the liquid inlet 7 and the liquid outlet 9 of the liquid collecting structure 4 has little influence. The arrangement of the condensation pipe should be based on increasing the flowing time of the cooling liquid in the condensation pipe and the contact area of the condensation pipe and the thrust chamber head shell 3, so as to improve the cooling effect.
In one embodiment, for example, the liquid collection structure 4 and the thrust chamber may be a unitary structure. For example, the liquid collection structure 4 may be welded to the thrust chamber head casing 3 or formed integrally therewith, so as to avoid damage to the liquid collection structure during operation of the vehicle, particularly when subjected to severe disturbances such as in rocket flight.
In one embodiment, the liquid engine further comprises a liquid propellant and fuel storage means and a second storage means for storing gas. Wherein the second storage means is adapted to compress the liquid propellant storage means by gas stored therein so that liquid propellant enters the combustion chamber through the propellant inlet. Specifically, as shown in fig. 4a, the liquid engine includes an oxidant inlet 11 and a fuel inlet 12, and for example, the oxidant or the fuel may be pressed by the gas stored in the second storage device to enter the thrust chamber through the oxidant inlet 11 and the fuel inlet 12. For example, oxidant is injected into the thrust chamber by the injector 10 to be mixed with fuel for combustion. As shown in fig. 4a, a gas collecting structure 5 is further provided outside the liquid collecting structure 4, and the gas collecting structure 5 and the second storage device are communicated with each other. According to the embodiment of the invention, the gas collection structure is arranged on the outer side of the liquid collection structure, so that on one hand, the heat of the cooling liquid after heat exchange with the thrust chamber head shell 3 can be further taken away, and the cooling effect of the cooling liquid on the thrust chamber shell 3 is improved. On the other hand, after the heated gas is returned to the second storage device, the pressure is increased due to the increase in the temperature of the gas, so that the capability of the liquid propellant storage device to be squeezed by the same amount of gas is improved, i.e., the same squeezing effect on the oxidizer or fuel can be achieved by only using less gas. The mass of gas stored by the second storage means is reduced relative to the vehicle, and the overall mass of the engine may also be reduced, thereby indirectly improving the launch capability of the vehicle.
Referring to fig. 4b, in one embodiment, the liquid collecting structure 4 is circumferentially disposed on the outer surface of the thrust chamber head housing 3, and the gas collecting structure 5 is circumferentially disposed on the outer surface of the liquid collecting structure 4, so that the inner surface of the gas collecting structure 5 and the outer surface of the liquid collecting structure 4 form an annular channel for gas to flow. For example, the annular channel is formed entirely by the inner surface of the gas collecting structure 5 and the outer surface of the liquid collecting structure 4, and one end of the annular channel comprises the gas inlet 6 and the other end is provided with the gas outlet 13. For example, as shown in fig. 4b, the gas inlet 6 and the gas outlet 13 of the annular channel are respectively located at two sides of the thrust chamber head housing 3 (for example, the connecting line of the gas inlet and the gas outlet is just the diameter of the annular channel, that is, the gas inlet and the gas outlet are arranged at two end points of the diameter of the annular channel), so that the gas released from the gas storage device can move from the gas inlet 6 of the annular channel to the gas outlet 13 from two directions, thereby improving the uniformity of heat exchange between the gas and the liquid collecting structure.
As shown in fig. 4a and 4b, in this embodiment, for example, the gas collecting structure 5 may be an annular body structure comprising a groove recessed from an inner ring to an outer ring, and the inner ring of the annular body has dimensions matching the outer dimensions of the liquid collecting structure 4, so that the gas collecting structure may be welded to the outer side of the liquid collecting structure, for example. After the gas collecting structure 5 is installed on the outer side of the liquid collecting structure 4, the inner surface of the groove of the gas collecting structure 5 and the outer surface of the liquid collecting structure 4 form a gas flowing channel. In engineering, for example, the liquid collecting structure 4 and the gas collecting structure 5 having an integral structure may be formed first and then outside the casing 3 integrally connected to the thrust chamber.
In this embodiment, for example, the gas collection structure 5 is coaxial with the liquid collection structure 4. Or the thrust chamber, the gas collection structure 5 and the liquid collection structure 4 are all coaxial. Thereby ensure the effect of the heat exchange of collection liquid structure 4 and thrust room casing 3 to and the heat transfer effect between collection liquid structure 4 and the gas collecting structure 5, improve collection liquid structure 4 to the refrigerated homogeneity of thrust room head casing 3, and the homogeneity of collection liquid structure 4 to the gas heating in the gas collecting structure 5. In addition, through with album of liquid structure 4 and the coaxial setting of gas collection structure 5, or with album of liquid structure 4, gas collection structure 5 and the equal coaxial setting of thrust chamber, can improve the stability of engine structure to further improve the performance of engine.
Referring to fig. 5a and 5b, in one embodiment, the gas collection structure 5 includes a gas inlet end 6 and a gas outlet end 13, and the liquid collection structure 4 includes a liquid inlet end 7 and a liquid outlet end 9; and the air inlet end 6 and the liquid inlet end 7 are positioned on the same side of the head shell 3, and the air outlet end 13 and the liquid outlet end 9 are positioned on the other side of the head shell 3. According to the embodiment of the invention, the inlets of the cooling liquid and the gas are arranged on the same side, and the outlets of the cooling liquid and the gas are arranged on the other side, so that the cooling liquid and the gas can be synchronously heated, the severe thermal convection is avoided, and the safety and the reliability of the engine are improved.
Referring to fig. 6a and 6B, in one embodiment, the dimension h1 of the plenum structure 5 is smaller than the dimension h2 of the plenum structure 4 in the axial direction of the thrust chamber (i.e., the direction B-B1 in fig. 6a and 6B). For example, as mentioned above, the gas collecting structure 5 and the liquid collecting structure 4 are both annular structures, and the dimension h2 of the liquid collecting structure 4 in the axial direction thereof is larger than the dimension h1 of the gas collecting structure in the axial direction. For example, the dimension h1 of the gas collecting structure 5 in the axial direction is 1/3-1/2 of the dimension h2 of the liquid collecting structure 4. Thus, the gas collecting mechanism 5 can be in contact with only a part of the outside of the liquid collecting structure 4, thereby avoiding the problem of too high air pressure caused by too much temperature rise in the gas collecting structure.
It should be pointed out that, the outside of thrust chamber head shell still can be for multilayer collection liquid structure, can set up the multilayer outside the thrust chamber shell and be used for refrigerated collection liquid structure promptly, and then improves collection liquid structure's cooling effect. In the case of a multilayer liquid collecting structure. For example, the gas collection structure may be disposed between two layers of the liquid collection structure.
The above-described embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other with corresponding technical effects.
Another aspect of the invention provides a vehicle comprising at least one liquid engine as above.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not to be construed as limiting the invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements and the like that fall within the spirit and principle of the present invention are intended to be included therein.
