SOLID-FUEL PELLET THRUST AND CONTROL ACTUATION SYSTEM TO MANEUVER A FLIGHT VEHICLE |
摘要 |
A solid-fuel pellet thrust and control actuation system (PT-CAS) provides command authority for maneuvering flight vehicles over subsonic and supersonic speeds and within the atmosphere and exo-atmosphere. The PT-CAS includes a chamber or solid-fuel pellets that are ignited to expel gas through a throat. The expelled gas is directed at supersonic vehicle speeds in atmosphere to a cavity between an aero control surface and the airframe to pressurize the cavity and deploy the surface or at subsonic speeds in atmosphere or any speed in exo-atmosphere allowed to flow out a through-hole in the surface where the throat and through-hole provide a virtual converging/diverging nozzle to produce a supersonic divert thrust. A pellet and control actuation system (P-CAS) Without the through-hole provides command authority at supersonic speeds in atmosphere. A restrictor mechanism controls the bleed of pressurized gas from the cavity to the external environment to achieve a deployment time objective for either the PT-CAS or P-CAS.
