Abstract

To determine the suitability of the control performance of the VTVL system with hybrid rocket engine, simulations were done for the vertical and horizontal motion using various engine data. In the simulation, the thrust modulation characteristics of each engine were modeled with the same second-order transfer function in all cases. The results showed that the VTVL system with HRE showed better performance in terms of vertical motion error and touch down speed. In addition, this confirms the possibility for successful VTVL flight missions using HRE. In the next step, a better control algorithm and an efficient control technique will be attempted for developing the VTVL demonstrator.
