Abstract: In order to research the hydrogen-oxygen aerospike nozzle rocket engine which may be
used on SSTO reusable launch vehicle, the simultaneous multi-ignition of hydrogen-oxygen igniter
is the one of its key technologies. Six schemes of hydrogen-oxygen igniter for multi-chamber
simultaneous multi-ignition are provided and expound and prove, multi small coaxial
hydrogen-oxygen resonant igniter assemble scheme is selected. Structure parameters and pressure of
small coaxial hydrogen-oxygen resonant igniter are obtained from more than 600 times foundation
experiments of resonance heating. The ignition tests showed that small coaxial hydrogen-oxygen
resonant igniter is characterized with advantages of repeatedly multi-ignition performance and high
reliability. The shortest start time 0.17s is reached. The simultaneous ignition time different of three
igniter is shorter than 0.01s. The ignition delay time repeatability of every igniter are good, even
placed igniter in different position of ignition system. It is concluded from ignition tests that
multi-small coaxial hydrogen-oxygen resonant igniter assemble is a good ignition scheme for
aerospike nozzle engine which need multi-chamber simultaneous multi-ignition.
heating tests. Performance tests will develop to
validate every hydrogen-oxygen igniter can be
used
for
multi-chamber
simultaneous
multi-ignition. From the fundamental tests and
ignition tests, discover the response time, delay
time, and lifetime of every igniter.
1 Introduction
When industrialization and business become
the development trend of space technology, low
cost, low launch fee and reusable rocket propulsion
becomes the most important research field of
launch vehicle. Aerospike nozzle engine, high
performance hydrogen-oxygen engine and
tri-propellant engine are candidate propulsion
schemes of reusable single-stage-to-orbit space
vehicle, and every scheme needs ignition
technology which can ignite repeatedly. So
repeated ignition technology is an important
research work for advanced propulsion system.
