具体地,如图1所示,所述喷注器本体1的内壁上设置有内凸阴极14,所述内凸阴极14将所述容纳空间分割为雾化汽化室16以及燃烧室25,所述电极15沿延伸方向的一端间隙安装在内凸阴极14中,其中所述间隙形成环形二次喷嘴22,所述环形二次喷嘴22连通雾化汽化室16和燃烧室25。
具体地,如图1所示,所述可燃剂流道12上延伸出第一子流道以及第二子流道, 所述第一子流道通过倾斜核心喷嘴23与容纳空间连接,所述第二子流道通过涡流喷嘴24与容纳空间连接。所述倾斜核心喷嘴23连接燃烧室25,其中所述倾斜核心喷嘴23的朝向与环形二次喷嘴22的朝向呈夹角布置,所述夹角为0~90°。其中倾斜核心喷嘴23、涡流喷嘴24分别沿燃烧室25的周向布置有多个,优选采用倾斜核心喷嘴23、涡流喷嘴24分别均匀布置在燃烧室25的周向,如图2所示,为第一子流道以及第二子流道在可燃剂流道12上的布置示意图,相应的的匹配有倾斜核心喷嘴23、涡流喷嘴24。
具体地,如图1所示,在一个优选例中,所述倾斜核心喷嘴23包括多个第二喷孔,第二喷孔的长径比为2~4,每相邻的两个第二喷孔的撞击角A为60~90°,如图2所示,所述电极15延伸端的端面与撞击点沿电极15的轴线方向的高度为3~5mm,撞击点高度用Lc表示,撞击点高度的布置使得所述的电极15的端头离开核心高温燃烧区,可以有效降低高温燃气向所述的电极15的热传输。
具体地,所述涡流喷嘴24包括多个第三喷孔,优选4~8个,多个所述第三喷孔沿燃烧室25沿周向的均匀布置且所述第三喷孔朝向燃烧室25周向的切线方向,所述第三喷孔长径比为2~4,涡流喷嘴24的设置使发动机燃料总流量的80%以上沿所述的推力室2内壁切向喷入形成贴壁的均匀膜冷却,保障所述的推力室2的热结构安全,如图5所示,多个涡流喷嘴24朝向燃烧室25沿顺时针或逆时针方向旋转形成涡流式的气流布置,使燃烧剂和助燃剂能够充分混合。
具体地,所述倾斜核心喷嘴23位于燃烧室25中助燃剂流动的上游,所述涡流喷嘴24相比于倾斜核心喷嘴23位于燃烧室25中助燃剂流动的下游。
具体地,如图1所示,所述自击式一次喷嘴21朝向容纳空间的方向上设置有汽化隔板13,所述汽化隔板13连接所述喷注器本体1。所述的喷注器本体1在所述的自击式一次喷嘴21的出口设置汽化隔板13,液氧通过所述的自击式一次喷嘴21后进入所述的雾化汽化室16,在所述的汽化隔板13的导流作用下,液氧雾化后的汽化蒸发面积显著增大,发动机点火瞬态过程中,所述雾化汽化室16的初始低压环境使雾化的液氧闪蒸汽化,汽化的气氧通过所述的环形二次喷嘴22时因比液氧更容易被击穿电离,有效地提高了发动机的点火可靠性;发动机稳态工作过程中,在所述的雾化汽化室16内利用所述的电极15的热端回热使雾化的液氧汽化,汽化的气氧通过所述的环形二次喷嘴22形成均匀的氧气膜,使下游燃烧更加均匀稳定,提高了发动机的燃烧性能。
进一步地,所述环形二次喷嘴22两侧通过所述的电极15和所述的内凸阴极14构成几千伏的高压击穿回路,并通过所述的内凸阴极14控制环形击穿气隙Le大小,在发动机点火过程中通过所述的电极15施加高频击穿电压(典型频率值100~200Hz,典型电压值2000V),持续击穿流经所述的环形二次氧喷嘴22的气氧形成纯氧等离子体流进入核心可燃剂与助燃剂的混合区即燃烧室25,以实现发动机可靠点火,同时这种环形击穿气隙结构有利于形成随机多点击穿,几乎同时产生多条纯氧等离子体流,进一步提高点火可靠性;发动机稳态工作过程中,气氧加速通过所述的环形二次喷嘴22时既可以冷却所述的电极15的侧面,还可以在所述的电极15的端面形成纯氧涡流区进行冷却,因此发动机稳态工作期间所述的电极15的端头始终被纯氧包围,结合所述倾斜核心喷嘴23的布置方式,可以有效地防止所述电极15的端头过热和烧蚀。
本发明解决现有技术中存在的小推力低温发动机点火可靠性和热结构安全性不佳等问题,所述发动机能够满足空间环境几万次脉冲点火工作以及长寿命使用等特殊需求。本发明适用于小推力的液氧与甲烷姿态控制发动机,同样也适用于液氧/液氢或者液氧/煤油等低温双组元非自燃推进剂组合的小推力火箭发动机。
