Thermal Response and Ablation Research of EPDM Thermal Protection Material in Ramjet

Article Preview

Abstract:

Thermal protection materials are required to preserve the metal components of motor that suffer severe heat load. The research on thermal response of insulation of ramjet combustion chamber was carried out by the ground test and numerical simulation. During the working time of the ramjet, the back-face temperature of the thermal protection material was measured. The scanning electron microscope of samples was investigated. The calculation of thermo-chemical flow was solved by the CFD software FLUENT to provide the heat load boundary for simulation of heat transfer of EPDM insulation. The heat transfer model was solved by the FEA software ANSYS. Comparison of the temperature profile at the ablating surface between calculation and measurement shows the two results agree with each other. The simulation results can provide the temperature rising trend of insulation in a certain extent.
