Abstract

In addition to the self-excited excitation of high-pressure fluid in the tube, the kerosene pipeline in the liquid oxygen kerosene rocket engine is also subjected to external excitation such as external pressure pulsation and engine body vibration. Therefore, strong vibration often occurs, which has seriously threatened the safety of the rocket engine.In this paper, the vibration characteristics of the conveying pipeline are studied by using the established three-dimensional pipeline model including bellows, multi-section bends and other auxiliary structures, combined with the two-way fluid-solid coupling method.The results show that the low-frequency vibration of the pipeline is caused by the self-excited pressure pulsation of the fluid, and the high-frequency vibration is derived from the vibration of the engine body, while the external pressure pulsation excitation has no significant effect on the pipeline vibration.The visualization results show that the severe vibration position of the pipeline thermal test is mainly concentrated between the inlet and outlet and the two bellows.Bellows, elbows, and supports have high stress values, making them risky positions vulnerable to structural failure that need to be focused on. The findings of this study are significant in a good way for rocket engine structural optimization.
