Effect of Condensed Phase Particles on the Electromagnetic Field Characteristics of Combustion Products in a Flow Path of a Liquid-Propellant Engine. The Results of Experimental Studies

Аннотация

This paper describes the experimental study of amplitude (with a frequency of up to 50 kHz) and integral characteristics of the self-magnetic field of high-temperature combustion products of hydrocarbon fuel, which flow out of the nozzle of a standard liquid-propellant engine (LPE) with simulation of the heat of a combustion chamber with injection of aluminum-magnesium alloy particles (c-phase) into the combustion chamber. It is determined that the amplitude of the magnetic field intensity generated by high-temperature (up to 3500 K) combustion products depends on the LPE operation modes and the presence of k phase particles in the particle flow. The magnetic field amplitude increases by 20% during the LPE burnout ≈0.2 s earlier than the pressure drop in the combustion chamber. The total volumetric electric charge generated by the combustion product flow with the c-phase is estimated.
