Abstract

The paper presents the experimental results that allow determining optimum quenching conditions for solid rocket motors (SRM) at the stage of firing bench tests (FBT) in gas dynamic tunnels (GDT) with altitude simulation. The work describes main design approaches for quenching unit enabling reduced thermal insulation (TI) destruction by 15-20% after finish of SRM operation due to aftereffect decrease, as well as reduced values of scattering of TI undamaged layer thickness up to 10% owing to uniform cooling.If necessary, drying accompanied with emissions of TI gaseous products and remnants of k-phase fuel components is run in GDT, which allows improving environmental safety of working facilities and shortening the time for evaluation of SRM design parameters.
