Quantitative detection of aging damage of solid propellant based on frequency impedance spectroscopy combined with CARS‐SVM algorithm

Abstract

AbstractSolid propellant, as the energy source for solid rocket engines, it is of great significance to achieve accurate quantitative detection of aging damage of solid propellant. In this paper, a novel approach based on frequency impedance spectroscopy impedance combined with CARS‐SVM algorithm was proposed. First, the temperature, humidity, and pressure of environmental information around the solid rocket motor were sampled, and then the impedance at corresponding frequencies of the propellant was obtained by AD5933 chip. Second, the processed experimental data were subjected to abnormal sample detection before further variables selection using uninformative variables elimination (UVE) competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), respectively. Finally, support vector machine (SVM), UVE‐SVM and CARS‐SVM quantitative calibration methods were established. The results showed that the determination coefficient (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of CARS‐SVM model were 0.9919, 0.7540, and 0.0480, respectively. Therefore, the results prove that impedance of solid propellant combined with CARS‐SVM model can effectively achieve high precision quantitative detection of aging damage of solid propellant, which lays a new method for the application of solid propellants aging damage in the online quantitative detection.
