    Abstract:

    A high-speed camera, a high-precision pressure sensor, an R-type thermocouple and a micro-thrust test bench has been used to investigate the controllable combustion behaviors and thrust performance of the laser-controlled solid propellant (LCSP) under laser irradiation. The burning rate, ignition delay time, chamber pressure, combustion flame temperature and micro-thrust under different laser power densities were obtained. The results showed that the burning rate and chamber pressure increased linearly, while the ignition delay time decreased with increasing laser power density. Combining the thermocouple temperature curves, it was concluded that the combustion process of LCSP might be divided into five zones: pre-heating zone, condensed phase zone, triple zone, gas phase zone and flame zone. Meanwhile, the combustion flame temperature of the LCSP was 1202.3 ℃ under the laser power density of 1.343 W·mm-2. Dependence of the combustion status on laser power density makes sense to realize the accurate adjustment of micro-thrust. In the experiment, the thrust control of LCSP is successfully realized by changing the laser power density. As the laser power density increased from 0.344 W·mm-2 to 1.343 W·mm-2, thrust of the LCSP increased from 1.58 mN to 2.28 mN.
