ABSTRACT

The objective of this dissertation is to present a computational model of the

suspensions composing uncured composite solid propellant. The work examined highly

concentrated suspensions of more than 50% solid volume, with attention to bimodal

mixtures. Investigation of propellant processing was conducted to determine how this

model can be applied to processing. Experimental work was conducted to supply data for

comparison to the computational results. This involved data gathered from an Olifice

viscometer on viscosity and flow behavior. This model is a tool to investigate goodness

of mixing throughout the processing stages of the propellant. The investigation into

processing focused both on mixing and casting of the suspension. By studying this model

for concentration, velocity and thermal behaviors, a better understanding of how well the

propellant composition progresses in processing was obtained.

A multiphase mixture approach was taken. This involved a continuum description

for the mixture and each constituent A Fortran program was written to conSU'uct this

routine. It was run on both a V AXstation 3100, Model 40 using VMS Digital operating

system, and a SUN IPX, using SUN UNIX operating system.

The code examined two-dimensional monomodal and bimodal mixture flows

through a pipe. It examined concentrations between 65% and 75%. Due to the high

concentration, it was necessary to apply all inertial and viscous terms within each

constituent and the entire mixture. Proper boundary conditions and initial conditions to

produce stable runs were found.

Both monomodal and bimodal computational results showed good correlations with

the experimental data, although a slight dilatation was produced by the program. No

dilatation appeared in the experimental work. No concentration drop was detected in

either the computational results or experimental work.

INTRODUCTION

14

The objective of this dissertation is to present a computational model of the

suspensions composing uncured composite solid propellant. The work examined highly

concentrated suspensions of more than 50% solid volume, with attention to bimodal

mixtures. Investigation of propellant processing was conducted to determine how this

model can be applied to processing. Experimental work ~as conducted to supply data for

comparison to the computational results. This involved data gathered from an orifice

viscometer on viscosity and flow behavior. This model is a tool to investigate goodness

of mixing throughout the processing stages of the propellant. The investigation into

processing focused both on mixing and casting of the suspension. By studying this model

for concentration, velocity and thermal behaviors, a better understanding of how well the

propellant composition progresses in processing was obtained.

The technique used to develop the model is based on theories in multiphase

mixtures. This technique was introduced in the '60s by Wallis [1] and Truesdell [2].

Initial interest was in two-phase mixtures of liquid-gas systems, particularly for nuclear

reactor cooling systems. Since then the technique has been applied to liquid-liquid, liquid­

solid and many other materials. Computational work in this area grew immensely in the

mid- '70s, especially the work by Spalding [3]. The two most commonly used two-phase

codes, GENMIX2P and PHEONICS, were developed by Spalding in the early '80s. A

very recent summary of multi phase mixture theory and computational developments was

Page 20: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

15

done by Soo [4].

Due to the complex nature of these suspensions, the study of highly concentrated

suspensions has acquired a special area in multi phase mixtures theory. Interaction between

the constituents is considered highly important and is expressed in the governing

equations. The basic foundations of multiphase mixture theory are used. Each constituent

of the suspension is evaluated individually with respect to the balance equations of mass,

momentum and energy. Interaction force terms are used in these equations to take into

account the other constituents. The properties of the suspension are then determined as

a function of the constituent properties. This is done by requiri!1g that suspension

properties also obey the same balance equations. For simplicity within this work, chemical

reaction was neglected and the temperature between all the adjacent constituents was

assumed to be equal.

The computational model developed in this dissertation is the first attempt for such

highly concentrated suspensions. It is an extension of the GENMIX2P and PHEONICS

codes. The scheme employed the IPSA (interPhase Slip Algorithm) established in these

codes to handle two-phase aspects of flows. Changes were applied for multiphase flows.

Other changes involved applying inertial and viscous terms to all the constituents. The

scheme is two-dimensional, and although it was applied to a steady state condition, it is

transient in structure.

Work is presented in four parts. The first is a study of propellant processing

techniques. Second is the introduction to rheology of highly concentrated suspensions.

Third is the introduction to multiphase mixture theory and the computational scheme

Page 21: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

16

which stems from it. Fourth is the discussion of the results and the future potential of the

technique for a more detailed investigation of propellant processing.

Chapter II presents the background information on the processing of composite

solid propellant. It introduces the terminology and techniques used in batch processing.

A statistical analysis on small-scale and full-scale batch processing is presented. Studies

in propellant oxidizer particle breakage and propellant curing are presented to properly

define the suspension. Variations in propellant performance were detected, caused by

changes in mixing procedure.

Chapter III presents the rheology of highly concentrated suspensions. Background

on monomodal and bimodal mixtures is presented. Experimental work is presented on an

orifice viscometer. The data is used to empirically define the viscosity of the suspension

and to provide the flow behavior for comparison to the computational work. Findings

indicated that complex flow behavior exists for monomodal mixtures, while bimodal

mixtures possess a simple nature. Empirical formulas for the mixtures by Chong [5] show

a good fit with the data.

Chapter IV presents the theory of multiphase mixtures and the computational

scheme developed to model the suspension. Computational results to flow runs and an

analysis of their applicability to processing is also presented. The shear rate data acquired

from the computational runs show good fits with the experimental data. A dilatant

behavior was noted in the monomodal and bimodal mixture in the computational runs.

Convergence is found to occur very rapidly for the multiphase mixtures. Stability is

highly dependent on the interaction and viscous terms within the momentum equation.

17

The computational work is done on a Digital V AXstation 3100, model 40 and a Sun IPX.

Chapter VI presents a summary of results. The computational model proved to

portray the suspension flow well. Confidence in the technique is high. The critical aspect

now lies in applying it to more specific and detailed equipment in order to evaluate the

best possible processing technique.

CHAPTER 2

PROCESSING OF COMPOSITE SOLID PROPELLANT

Solid Rocket Motors (SRMs) play an important role in the U.S. Space Program.

They have proven to be low-cost and reliable means of delivering payloads into space.

Their history of success in space and defense launch systems has placed them in high

regard within the growing commercial market. There is no doubt that they will remain an

integral part of future space endeavors.

In light of this fact, NASA has established the Solid Propellant Integrity Program

(SPIP). The main objective of this program is to further improve the success rate and

advance the technology of U.S.-built SRMs. NASA's present attention focuses on

composite solid propellants, primarily due to their use on the space shuttle. This vehicle

is relied upon highly for large payload deliveries. Two solid-booster strap-ons are used

in each mission, containing more than 500,000 kg (1,100,000 lbs) of propellant apiece.

The work within this dissertation stems from efforts to improve processing for this

system.

This chapter describes in general the processing of composite solid propellant. It

supplies the terminology and technology of this field. It also presents studies issued to

identify critical areas of concern in processing to improve propellant performance through

prediction and repeatability.

2.1 Background

Figure 2.1 shows the highlights for a space shuttle Advanced Solid Rocket Motor

(ASRM). The motor is to be manufactured in three segments as shown. In each segment,

propellant is casted into the casing and then allowed to cure. The inner wall of the casing

has a polymeric liner which bonds to the propellant. The segments are then shipped to the

launch facility where they are then assembled into the boosters,

The ingredients which can be used to compose the propellant are numerous. A list

of some of the ingredients which are presently used is shown in table 2.1. The propellant

is basically made of high concentrations of solid oxidizer particles, held together by a

polymeric binder. In the present shuttle boosters, the oxidizer is ammonium perchlorate

(AP) and the binder is polybutadiene-acrylic acid-acrylonitrile (PBAN). The ASRM will

use hydroxyl-tenninated polybutadiene as the binder. Curing agents are used to harden

the binder and solidify the propellant. To improve specific impulse, metal powders are

often added. Other additives may also be placed into the propellant to improve burning

characteristics, material strength properties and even processing workability. These last

additives together usually compose less than 5% by volume of the propellant.

The key ingredient in the propellant is the oxidizer. Since it is the source of

energy, high concentrations are desired. Concentrations as high as 65% by volume of

propellant are used. With the addition of the metal powders, solid concentrations of 750/0

are sometimes reached. It is important that this be done without hampering the structural

integrity of the propellant, which is governed by the binder. Care must be taken to

determine the best packing of the oxidizer and still allow for the proper curing. Zero

permeability and porosity are also sought. To satisfy aU these requirements, bimodal

mixtures of oxidizer particle sizes are used.

Table 2.2 shows the formulation of the present shuttle booster propellant.

Figure 2.2 shows the size distribution corresponding to the oxidizer. The solid

concentration is 75%. The additives DOA and ferric oxide are the plasticizer and burning

rate catalyst, respectively. DER-331 is the epoxy curing agent. The coarse and fine are

mixed at a ratio of 70/30 to acquire the bimodal mixtures desired. In most cases, the

oxidizer of the coarse size is acquired from the source and then ground to the proper fine

size. This permits the adjustment of the fine sizes and guarantees that the quality remains

the same for all the oxidizer.

Now that the propellant composition has been discussed, it is equally important

to discuss the means by which it is processed. The discussion that follows describes the

conventional means by which propellant is produced in the U.S., particularly the method

currently used to produce the shuttle boosters. A major change proposed in this method

for the ASRM is discussed at the end of the section.

The batch mixer is the principle device used in manufacturing these propellants.

Figure 2.3 shows the propellant, mixing bowl and blades. In this process, the ingredients

are placed in a large mixing bowl in a particular sequence. Time is allowed for mixing

between additions to acquire the proper dispersion of each ingredient. The standard mixer

used is 600 gallons and processes about 3,000 kg (7,000 lbs) of propellant. The figure

shows the scrap-down stage of a 150-gallon batch operation. The bowl is dropped to

remove the blades from the mixture; these blades are then cleaned so that better mixing

can be obtained. Monitoring the state of the mixture is usually done before the addition

of the curing agent, at the end of mix and at the end of casting stages. Samples are

extracted and delivered to the laboratory for examination. Viscosity and density is

relied upon to supply the information on the progress of the mixture.

Remote controls are used to guide the propellant through the process. On-site

personnel are held to a small number and are present only at certain stages of the

mixing. The processing itself is usually performed in an isolated portion of the facility.

Figure 2.3 also shows the most common configuration of the batch mixer. Baker­

Perkins Planetary Vertical Blade Mixers have been developed for small- and large-scale

production of these propellants and are the standard equipment used. The blades are

shaped so that the propellant is forced up to the top of the bowl. The rotation for both

blades is planetary about the center. The speed of rotation relative to the center and about

the blade shaft differ from one facility to another and are set by Baker-Perkins.

Figure 2.4 shows a general processing schedule for the formulation shown in

table 2.2. The mixer is identical to the one shown in figure 2.3. All the ingredients are

preheated before they are placed in the bowl. Note that most of the liquid ingredients are

added to the bowl at the beginning of the schedule, and that the particles are added

gradually over a long stretch of time.

Standard procedures also include storage of the propellant for more than 24 hours

before the addition of the curing agent. This is done to improve wetting of the binder to

the oxidizer and results in a noticeable drop in viscosity. In addition, the particles are

introduced in a quasi-mixed manner. For 15 minutes, the coarse particles are introduced,

then the fine, then the coarse, and so on. The process continues until all the oxidizer has

been placed in the bowl.

All these techniques have been used previously in other motors and are

considered to be beneficial to a good mix. (No true verification of benefits r~sulting from

these techniques have been done except from the manufacture of the motors.)

In the casting stage, the motor casing is placed in a vacuum bell and the

propellant is drawn from the bottom of a casting can (usually the mixer bowl). Figure 2.5

shows the technique. This technique is the best method of casting the propellant since no

air is entrapped. Note that a slot former and dispersion cone are incorporated in the

passage.

Rheological considerations are extremely important in this technique since the sole

driving force enabling the propellant to flow is the differential pressure and gravity. Care

must be taken to fix the rate of casting so that void-free propellant is produced. As

propellants are made of higher solid concentrations, the difficulties in casting multiply.

Curing is the last stage in the process and involves placing the casing into an

environmentally controlled oven. Since the temperature of curing is 140°F, the pit is

usually modified to act as the oven. This stage lasts for at least several days, usually

several weeks. In addition, pressure may be applied to the propellant through the core

sometime during curing to generate a pre-stress on the propellant. This is done to

diminish any deformations which might take place at fIring, where the chamber pressure

spikes.

Samples taken at the end of cast are also cured with the motors and tested at

prescribed curing times. This supplies the best time at which the motor can be removed

and stored for the mission.

In the light of new developments associated with tire ASRM, it is proper to discuss

the method of continuous mixing. This is the method proposed for the development of

this booster in the mid-'90s and it should be mentioned. Note that any further discussion

beyond this section and the conclusion will focus on the batch mixer only. The conclusion

discusses the ea~e with which the work presented in this dissertation can be applied

toward continuous mixing.

Continuous mixing is the assembly-line approach to making propellant. Figure 2.6

shows the schematics of the technique. Continuous mixers are usually composed of a

twin-screw mixer/extruder, with some modifications to improve mixing. The ingredients

are constantly fed at the front of the mixer at critical sections. The material is then

extruded through the end and cast. The production capacity is more than 2,000 kg/hr

(4,400 lbs/hr). Figure 2.6 corresponds to the schematics for the continuous processing

design proposed for the ASRM. Note that on-line quality control monitors are

incorporated and that the process overall is more adaptable to automation than the batch

method.

Both batch and continuous mixing techniques serve to be productive in the

manufacturing of large motors. Both supplied a production efficiency of 95% or better

Page 34: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

29

when considering waste. The main advantage in continuous mixing is in the amount of

propellant handled at one particular time. The hazard of ignition is apparent in both

techniques, continuous mixing handles less of the propellant and therefore is less likely

to produce a catastrophic flre.

Unfortunately, the demand for large motors diminished in the late '60s.

Continuous mixing became less attractive due to the start-up and shutdown costs. The last

time it had been applied to production of large systems was in 1965, when production of

the Polaris missile concluded. Batch processing proved more cost efflcient to handle the

demand and therefore became the conventional means of processing. It is only now that

continuous mixing is being considered once more.

Better predictions are the major focus in advancing processing. Processing of

propellant is not very well understood. Each motor is tailored to the specifications. By

determining the factors which cause variations, and by controlling these factors, better

predictions can be acquired. Since more stringent standards and cost-efficient management

are being applied throughout the aerospace field, better prediction is stressed even further.

Additional fuel is supplied by NASA's attempt to introduce these motors for commercial

enterprise.

Predicting the performance of the propellant relies on the theoretical chemistry of

the propellant and is supported by tests on small motors. Tests on the boosters themselves

are rare due to economical reasons. Statistical methods are heavily relied on to determine

the range of deviation which may occur. As mission data are acquired, modifications to

this range are done.

30

Unfortunately, the range allowed often proves to be too large, and in several

incidents has proven to be of major concern to mission specialists.

The best example of the problem of performance variations comes from the data

from the fourth shuttle mission launch. Figure 2.7 shows data from several static and

mission firings of the solid boosters. Using the data acquired from static and smaller

scale tests, shuttle performance was predicted. All was well until the fourth mission,

where an abrupt drop in the bum rate was apparent. Although this fell well within the

specifications, it caused major concerns. As a means of compensating for the loss in

thrust, the shuttle main engines were used. This proved equal to a loss of more than

5,400 kg (12,000 lbs) of payload capability which could have been otherwise delivered.

The cost in payload was large, but attention is also attracted by the fact that the booster

Page 36: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

31

separation altitude targets were missed. Both show that a problem does exist and needs

to be addressed.

The actual cause of the incident was never known. All that could be stated was

that the boosters experienced a drop in bum rate from a pre-lift value of 0.366 to a value

of 0.359 in./sec. No noticeable change in processing the propellant was noted nor any

drop forecast. To correct for the prediction, solid performance was revised downward and

only flight data in conjunction with small-scale tests were to be used. The revised value

for the next mission was 0.365 in./sec.

Problems of this nature are abundant and result from a sensitivity of the propellant

to processing variables. Given what is considered identical processing procedures as

known now, the likelihood of varying performance is stilI possible. The most apparent is

the shuttle mishap in which the mission was severely hampered.

Another example is the "mid-web anomaly". During the firing of a motor, the

mean chamber pressure tends to rise above predicted values and then drop below. The

term comes from the assumption that the time necessary to rise to the maximum pressure

is close to the time needed for the propellant surface to regress to approximately halfway

through the propellant. Time measurements have been quite accurate and the pressure rise

determined to be slightly larger than 8% of the average chamber pressure.

Overall, there are three distinct cases of variation: those associated with propellant

performance variations within a motor; those associated with propellant performance

variations between identical size motors; and those between a small-scale motor and full­

scale motor. The first will be defined as within-motor variations, the second as motor-to-

Page 37: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

motor variations, and the third as scale-up variations.

2.2 Processing Studies

32

To acquire a direct prospective of the variation problem, on-site studies at the Jet

Propulsion LaboratorylEdwards Air Force (JPLIEAF) facility in California were

completed. The studies were conducted on 60 propellant processing runs of 150-gallon

batch mixtures, and 11 runs of 1 gallon. The propellant formulation examined is shown

in table 2.2.

These runs were conducted by JPLIEAF to manufacture 48 in. dia. motors. An

invitation was made to examine the processing and study the data recorded for each batch

run. Tests on the motors were not available at that time.

The mixing was done using Baker-Perkins Mixers. The mixing schedule is shown

in figure 2.4 for the 150 gallon runs. The I-gallon runs were mixed in a similar fashion,

but with a lower mixing time due to the size of the batch.

Three values for the ferric oxide concentration were used for the 150-gallon runs;

they were 0.01 %, 0.04% and 0.24% by weight. In addition, 24 runs of 0.01 % were used

to study pre-storage. In this particular case, 8 runs were pre-stored for 24 hours, another

8 for 48 hours and the rest for 72 hours.

The I-gallon runs used 0.01 %, 0.03% and 0.04% ferric oxide concentrations.

Three runs were also made with none at all. No pre-storage was done.

The ingredient lots were identified in each run and assumed to be identical,

although concern was directed toward the two lots of AP coarse particles used. Their

particle size distribution is shown in figure 2.8. One was procured by JPL from Thiokol.

Both lots varied in their average from 200J.lm. Thiokol had an average of 31OJ.lm while

JPL had 250J.lm.

Most of the data acquired came from samples taken from the batch after casting.

The data corresponding to slurry viscosity measurements were taken befQre the addition

of the curing agent and from the top of the bowl. Similar samples were taken for end of

mix viscosity. All samples were then allowed to cure in separate molds. The samples

were then machined to the proper shape for material and burn rate tests.

The material strength tests involved measuring Maximum and Breakage Tensile

Stresses, corresponding Elongation values, and a Shore A Hardening test. The tensile tests

were done on a Instron Universal Tester, at a crosshead separation rate of 2 in/min. A

JANNAF uniaxial tensile specimen was milled from the samples with a gage length of

Page 39: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

34

2.0 in., a thickness of 0.495 in. and a width of 0.380 in. A plastic strain gage was used

to measure the extension directly. Hardness tests were conducted using a Scleroscope

Model A.

The burn rate tests were completed in a Crawford Bomb Chamber with nitrogen

gas as the surrounding atmosphere. Burn rates were measured by placing two wires

through the sample. They were placed 5 in. apart across the length of the sample. A 0.5

in. dia. specimen was used in these tests.

Viscosities were measured using a Brookfield Rotory Viscometer with a coaxial

cylinder measuring head. In addition, other measurements such as density of the samples,

the temperature of the mixture within the bowl, and the room humidity were measured.

A total of 33 processing parameters were recorded for each batch. Appendix A contains

the data acquired for all runs.

Table 2.3 shows the variations of the 24 pre-stored runs corresponding to a ferric

oxide concentration of 0.01 %. A deviation of less than 1 % of the average value for all

runs existed between samples taken within the same batch. This indicated that the testing

procedures used did not introduce a substantial amount of uncertainty. The table also

shows that the deviations in batch-to-batch and scale-up are quite large and, at least for

the material strength properties, cause some concern. Note that the scale-up properties

exceed the batch-to-batch in all but three cases. Similar findings were encountered for all

concentrations of ferric oxide and both batch sizes. Density values remained unchanged

throughout all the runs. Pressure exponents of the burn rate between the small and large

runs are also found to deviate by as much as 25%. A comparison of the ferric oxide

sensitivity for small and large runs showed similar large differences. To place all this in

the proper perspective, the fourth shuttle misf,'\on experienced only a 3% drop in burn

rate,

Samples were taken at only a few different locations within the mixing bowl so

no conclusion can be made whether within-batch variations existed before casting.

Table 2.4 and 2.5 show the results of the pre-storage runs. Burn rate values rose

dramatically with pre-storage yet the material strength properties showed no effect at all.

The viscosity at the end of mix for the pre-storage runs showed only a small drop, a 1

kp drop. (Surprisingly, the change in viscosity between the pre-stored and other batches

showed no significant difference at the end of cast.) The property variations did not differ

in the pre-storage runs between any of the times allowed to store.

One critical finding was the history of the viscosity. Table 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8 show

the viscosities taken throughout the processing schedule. In all runs a dramatic rise in the

end of cast viscosity indicated that either adverse mixing or curing was occurring at

the casting stage of the process. Average values for pre-stored end of mix corresponding

to 7.21 kp, at end of cast this value rose to 11.42 kp. The slurry viscosity before the

curing agent was added was 7.31 kp. The trend is seen in all formulations. (The rise in

viscosity within the 0.04% and 0.24% ferric oxide formulation throughout the process is

a result of the use of Thiokol coarse lot The 0.01 % formulation is the JPL oxidizer).

In evaluating the sensitivity of the propellant viscosity to the sample temperature,

the phenomenon stated above is seen again. Figures 2.9 and 2.10 show the sensitivity for

the sample viscosities. For the end of mix sample, the temperature sensitivity matched

that for the mixture before the addition of the curing agent. This indicated little curing

at this stage since the slope of the line is proportional to the molecular weight of the

binder. The drop in viscosity after the addition of the curing. agent was simply due to

better wetting. The lack of similar correlation in the end of cast indicated a dramatic

change in the mixture either due to adverse mixing from casting or curing of the binder.

Finally, a parametric analysis was also completed to determine any other factor

which may playa role in the variations of propellant perfonnance. No other parameter

showed strong and conclusive impact on the propellant than those mentioned above.

In summary, batch-to-batch and scale-up variations were apparent, and to such a

degree as to cause concern for the motor performance. Any factors involved in curing

were not apparent in the mixing stage, although this question is stilI open for debate for

the casting.

Supporting work in this area of processing is small and involves mostly

manufacturing mishaps than direct experimental tests. The following are the cases which

Page 46: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

41

should be noted.

In conjunction with the work presented above, Mckay [6] in JPLIEAF extended

the study by taking sa.mples at the end of mix stage. The purpose was to determine if

sufficient mixing was occurring to disperse the curing agent properly. The runs

corresponded to 1, 30 and 150 gallon batch runs of the identical formulations studied

above. The samples were extracted from the top of the mixer so no impact due to casting

was involved. The extraction was at locations very near the wall of the bowl. The samples

were then allowed to cure under normal procedures.

In the results, these samples showed remarkable differences in the progress of

curing. For the 30 and 150 gallon runs, the samples did not cure under the normal

procedures. The uncured region was determined to be between 0.25-1.17 in. away from

the wall for 150 gallons, 0.20-0.62 in. for 30 gallons. The 1 gallon run showed no

problem in this area. The uncured region diminished as the wall temperature was raised

at mixing. The conclusion was that the curing agent had not properly dispersed for the

larger mixtures; in order to improve the situation, the wall temperature was raised so that

the mixture viscosity would drop.

It was assumed that with such small .concentrations of curing agents, a good mix

is not reached in all cases and variations are possible in propellant performance.

In another study [7], particle shattering was assumed to contribute to the changes

in performance. Fortunately studies in the area of grinding AP indicates that the amount

of energy necessary to transfer from the blades to the particles was insufficient for these

batch mixers to generate the force needed to break the particles.

Throughout this discussion, much has been said about the mixing of the propellant

but little on the casting. Air Force Rocket Propulsion Laboratory (AFRPL) has been

studying the phenomenon of "mid web anomaly" for some time [8]. As stated previously,

the time at which the pressure rises corresponds to the time it would take the propellant

surface to regress to approximately the center of the web. The times are extremely

repeatable and appear for a diverse number of propellants. The anomaly was found to be

insensitive to motor size. It was also discovered that high energetic fonnulations showed

less of a pressure rise, but these propellants had dramatically lower solid concentrations.

Overall, it was assumed that casting flow patterns established orientation patterns in the

propellant.

They supported this conclusion by conducting tests on the casting technique. A set

of 15 lb motors were manufactured with three variations in vacuum casting: the fIrst was

to place a rod through the annular cavity to disrupt the flow; the second was to rotate the

mold to eliminate propellant flow relative to the wall; and the third was simply to cast

under normal conditions and then remove 50, 60 and 70% of the web. The results were

very interesting. All showed a large reduction in the anomaly. Both the stir and spin cast

modification showed a drop in the pressure rise by one half, with spin cast being the best.

The machined cast showed very little anomaly.

This work was verified by Kallmeyer and Sayer [9]. Similar motors tests were

conducted and showed that the manner in which the propellant is introduced in the casing

and how the flow pattern develops between the core and the casing is crucial in this

phenomenon.

43

Lastly, a most enlightening experiment was conducted by Thiokol by Neilson and

Miles [10]. In their work, slices of propellant were taken from a motor at three particular

orientations. The circumferential and vertical slices showed dramatic rises in bum rate

compared to the radial in all the cases. It was assumed that the orientation of the AP was

critical to the phenomenon and that this phenomenon was sensitive to the flow direction

of the casting technique.

In the studies cited above, two points stand out as critical issues to be investigated.

The first is the mixing stage, where the question is whether the curing agent is properly

mixed in the suspension. The second is the casting stage, where concern is focused on

whether the flow behavior of the suspension adversely changes the homogeneity of the

solids. It is these two areas on which this dissertation will focus.

CHAPTER 3

RHEOLOGY OF COMPOSITE SOLID PROPELLANT SUSPENSION

This chapter presents the study which was conducted on the rheology of highly

concentrated suspensions. The suspensions consisted of mono modal and bimodal mixtures.

This was intended primarily to supply the empirical relationships for the viscosities of

both mixture compositions. These relationships are to be used within the next chapter in

the multiphase mixture theory and computational work.

The results introduce a better understanding of composite solid propellant

suspension. The study was directed toward concentrations and particle size distributions

similar to those stated for the propellant in chapter 2. More specific, the emphasis was

on bimodal mixtures of solid concentrations between 65% and 75% by volume. This

covers most of the propellant motors presently in use.

Other areas of interest were also examined on both monomodal and bimodal

mixtures. Investigation of the flow behavior of the material, particularly shear stress

versus shear rate behavior, was conducted. Investigations of the effects of temperature and

additives on the mixture viscosity were also conducted. Investigation of concentration

gradients of the curing ag~nt within the mixer were conducted, but proved unsuccessful

due to the complex nature of the material; the techniques used to determine the

concentration gradients are presented.

3.1 Background

Little experimental work has been done in the area of highly concentrated

suspensions. Most work in suspensions deals with monomodal mixtures below 50% solid

concentrations by volume. Most focus on problems of very dilute suspensions. Propellant

concentrations usually lie above 65%. These studies have still proven to be useful,

however, since an extensive amount of information has been collected in identifying those

parameters which influence the rheology of the material, work which can be extended to

high concentrations. This includes concentration, particle size distribution and binder

properties. A summary of all the work done in this area is given by Utracki [11].

One specific study stands alone in high concentrations, the work done in the early

'60s by Chong [5]. His work dealt directly with the problem of propellant rheology and

involved developing a new means of measuring viscosity for propellants. Conventional

rotational viscometers suffer from "wall effects", named due to the small clearanc·e

between the rotor and the cup. This limits the maximum concentration which can be

measured. Chong examined an orifice viscometer and determined that it was best suited

to handle high concentrations. Other instruments have since been developed by industry

to overcome the "wall effect" phenomenon [12], yet none have been so thoroughly studied

for high concentrations as the orifice viscometer. Concentrations as ·high as 75% and of

bimodal composition were examined without encountering the phenomenon of "wall

effects". The flow behavior work presented in this chapter follows from his setup and

focuses on the particle size distributions mentioned in chapter 2. A basic description of

rheology as it pertains to propellants follows.

Page 51: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

46

In the rheology of propellants, four factors playa major role in the flow behavior

and viscosity of the material. The first is the concentration of the solid particles; the

second is the particle size distribution; the third is the binder flow behavior and viscosity;

and the fourth is the effects of the propellant additives to the viscosity of the binder.

Particle shape may be considered as a fifth, but under the strict quality control and

procurement specifications now used in industry, it plays less of a role. The particles

representing the AP are highly spherical. and with more advancements in their

manufacture, the factor of shape will continue to lose ground to the first four factors. It

is for thi..; reason that particle shape will not be discussed further.

Concentration of the suspension plays the most important role of the four factors.

The concentration governs whether constituent interaction plays a major role in the

rheology. At low concentrations, below 40%, the rheology is governed entirely by the

binder. Little is due to the particles. For higher concentrations. particle packing determines

the rheology. Experiments on shearing motions indicate that above a certain concentration

in monomodal mixtures, shearing of the material will cause swelling and dilatation. This

is known as the critical concentration and is approximately 52%. The particles are packed

in a cubic lattice but are free to move about relative to adjacent particles. In higher

concentrations. their motion becomes more restrictive. A maximum concentration of 74%

can be reached for monomodal mixtures if the particles form a rhombohedral lattrice. At

this concentration, the particles are locked together very tightly. The swelling arises when

the particles roll over adjacent ones as a result of an applied shear stress.

Particle size distribution is as important as concentration. Values above the

Page 52: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

47

maximum concentrations of monomodal mixtures can easily be reached with the use of

bimodal and multimodal mixtures. The advantage is also seen in a lower viscosity and as

a result, a more workable mixture. Theoretical work in packing has indicated a maximum

of 86% for bimodal mixtures. When considering the propellant suspension, the average

size plays little or no role in the rheology. In addition, dilatantancy is less likely due to

the packing arrangement between the fine and coarse particles. Propellant compositions

usually permit only random packing due to the relative size between the coarse and fine.

The impact of particle size distribution is seen in the propellant shown in

chapter 2. Figure 2.8 shows the two lots used. The Thiokol lot has slightly more fine

particles which induce a higher propellant viscosity seen in table 2.8. The JPL lot

represents the standard size distributions for oxidizer coarse and fine particles.

Monomodallots usually have less than a 20l-1.m standard deviation in size distributions by

percent volume. If the distributions were more similar, the higher average particle size

(50% value) for the Thiokol lot would have made little difference.

As for the aluminum, since it composes a much smaller percentage of the

propellant and possess a particle size distribution very close to the fine oxidizer, it most

likely has little influence over the rheology. The propellant can then be portrayed as a

bimodal mixture.

The flow behavior of the binder plays a much lesser role in the flow behavior of

the mixture. Pseudoplastic or bingham flow characteristics in the binder are directly

inherited by the mixture. Viscosity is also effected, playing a role in how the binder

interacts with the particles.

Page 53: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

48

Finally, the additives, curing agent and metal powder that are incorporated in the

propellant formulation will effect the viscosity of the binder and indirectly effect the flow

characteristics of the mixture. Chapter 2 showed that the curing agent lowered the

viscosity of the binder as it was dispersed through the suspension at mixing.

The key to the work in chapter 4 is the manner in which these four factors are

related to the viscosity of the mixture. Fortunately there are many empirical relationships

available for both monomodal and bimodal mixtures. A list is available in Utracki [11].

Within this work, two equations were found to best fit the data. Equations 3.1 and 3.2

shows the relationships for monomodal and bimodal, respectively.

Eq. (3.4)

C fine Eq. (3.5) C bindeI + C fine

and where c is the concentration, j.l is the viscosity and cmax solids is the maximum

concentration. The bimodal equation is particularly suitable for the work to be done in

chapter 4. It states that the coarse particles see the binder and fine particles as a single

fluid (with viscosity equal to the fine and binder monomodal suspension:

Jljine.bintkrsuspension = JlbintkJn(c;J). Note that this is only true when the coarse to fine average

diameter ratio is greater then 20. Fortunately, this is very appropraiate for propellants.

As for the orifice viscometer, equation 3.6 shows the relationship derived by

Chong [5] to determine the viscosity of the mixture. The equation relates the pressure

applied to the flow rate observed. The shear stress and shear rate terms have been

generalized so that comparison to other devices can be made.

T = F ~ slurryB Eq. (3.6)

where T is the shear stress and S the shear rate, and are calculated as follows:

orifice radius. F is the orifice coefficient and is determined experimentally. Chong [5]

acquired values of 0.75. Support for this value is also shown in the next section.

One important note, equation 3.6 applies to newtonian behavior. In its application

to the suspension, only the low shear rate region can be investigated. This is where the

suspension is most likely to behave newtonian. Fortunately, this is the region 'which best

portrays the mixing and casting flow of propellants.

3.2 Experiments

The mixtures used for this study were mixed in a one-pint Baker-Perking Mixer

shown in figure 3.1.

Figure 3.1 One-pint Baker-Perkins Mixer.

The mixture consisted of a binder and several particle size distributions. It was

composed of HTPB binder and silica-alumina alloy particles. The propellant industry is

in a transition from the use of PBAN to HTPB. It was thought best to implement the new

binder in this study. Except for a lower viscosity, HTPB has the same flow behavior as

PBAN. The specific particle size distributions and the requirement that no reaction occur

between the binder and solids determined silica-alumina alloy to be the best material.

Figure 3.2 shows all particle size distributions chosen. The distributions were picked for

the fine and coarse to correspond to those shown in figure 2.2. Figures 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5

show the shapes of the particles with a scanning electron microscope. All show a large

percentage of spherical particles corresponding close to those seen in AP. The

intermediate particles show a few more random shapes.

An orifice viscometer was used to examine the flow behavior. A picture of the

apparatus is shown in figure 3.6. In the orifice viscometer, pressure was used to push the

mixture through the orifice. The pressure was raised and then dropped to determine if any

hysteresis existed in the flow behavior. Several orifice sizes were made to measure the

flow and care was taken to use the appropriate one so that no concentration gradients

would be generated. A water jacket surrounded the device to control temperatures and the

suspension temperature was recorded with a thermocouple. Temperature in the bowl and

in the viscometer were measured and found to be quite uniform. Appendix B presents the

data acquired in all the rheological experiments.

54

The mixtures were extracted from the top of the mixer bowl. No vacuum casting

was used. Some samples were placed in a vacuum to determine if any air was entrapped

due to the method in which the mixture was loaded within the viscometer. Little or no

air was found entrapped in the mixture.

The values and curves for calibrated fluids are shown in figures 3.7 and 3.8. The

orifice viscometer was calibrated with two samples from Brookfield. They were the

highest viscosity samples which could be obtained. In the calculations, the pressure

difference and the volumetric flowrate are proportional in the manner shown in

equation 3.6. The calibration value in equation 3.6 was found to be very close to the

values acquired by Chong [5] with very little error. Therefore a value of 0.75 was used

for the rest of the calculations.

These figures also show that the viscosity of the mixture is independent of the

orifice size. The next step was to determine if any concentration drop was present when

extracting the high concentration suspensions through the orifice.

The technique used to determine concentration changes involved using a solvent .

to separate the particles from the binder. Several baths were done for 10 ml of

suspension. In each bath, 50 ml of toluene was used to dissolve the binder.

A separation of the fine and coarse was also conducted, but with no success. A

wet screening technique was the only possible method. Other instruments could not be

used due to the large difference between the coarse and fine diameter size. This particular

method failed due to the small quantity of total solid in the sample, allowing for too much

56

error as a result of residual fine particles on the screen.

Measurement of the solid concentration in mixtures were conducted after going

through the orifice viscometer. No difference in concentration were found between the

extracts and the initial formulation used. The results therefore showed no drop at all in

the solid concentration through the viscometer or as a result of mixing. Both monomodal

and bimodal mixtures were investigated. Other studies [13] have supported these results,

indicating no drop in concentration for mixtures beyond 40%. Subsequently, the 0.246 cm.

the flow and allowing for more data to be gathered.

Several mixing procedures were conducted. The changes are shown in figures 3.9

and 3.10 for monomodal and bimodal mixtures. This was done to determine if the

suspension viscosity is sensitive to the mixing procedure. No distinct differences were

found in the mixtures. Standard procedure for the rest of the mixtures was then prescribed

as four hours of mixing under vacuum at 70°c. Viscosity measurements were done at

60°c, with the exception of the HTPB which was done at 25°c for manageability. The

viscosity of the binder at 60°c is 17 poise.

3.3 Results

Figure 3.11 shows the data acquired for HTPB. The fluid behaves newtonian and

serves to show that no non-newtonian flow behavior in the suspension results from its

use.

Figure 3.12 shows the values of t11e relative viscosity for monomodal mixtures.

The empirical relationships from equation 3.1 are shown for two maximum

concentrations. The data fit quite well above concentrations of 50%. The coarse and fine

particles tended toward a maximum concentration of 70%. They seem to generate similar

viscosity curves. The intermediate particles showed a much lower maximum concentration

and tended toward 50%. This may be due to the larger standard deviation in intermediate

particle size distributions. Note that the coarse particles proved to be more scattered than

the rest, this scatter will be discussed later in the section when the flow behavior data is

presented.

Bimodal mixtures proved to be the less complicated to measure, as is seen in

figure 3.13. Little scatter was found in the data. The empirical relationships from

equation 3.2 are shown for two maximum concentrations. Note that a maximum

concentration value of 70% approximates the viscosity of the mixtures. No significant

change in the relative viscosity was discovered for changes in the coarse/fine volume ratio

either. The small differences at the highest total solid concentration seem to indicate that

a lower value of coarse is preferable, since the 65/35 coarse/fine ratio had the lowest

viscosity. The infinite-modal mixture line is simply for reference and indicates that not

much will be gained in lowering the viscosity after bimodal mixtures.

The flow behavior is shown in figures 3.14, 3.15 and 3.16 for the monomodal

mixture. This shows the response of the suspension to pressure forces in the orifice

instrument. The coarse particles showed a large degree of hysteresis, resulting in the

scatter of the viscosity data above. Note that as the concentration rises in the fine

particles, the newtonian behavior is lost. At this particular point, the behavior of the

material best fits a bingham fluid where a yield shear stress must be reached before any

motion occurs. When the pressure was raised and dropped to determine any hysteresis,

none was detected. The intermediate also showed no hysteresis.

The bimodal behavior is shown in figure 3.17, 3.18 and 3.19. No hysteresis and

no large sway from a newtonian flow is seen. The behavior was very simple.

It is interesting that the viscosities in the monomodal mixture show particle size

as being very important. In the bimodal mixture, the average particle size of the mixture

had little impact on the viscosity. One reason may be that the surface tension of the

binder around the coarse particles is quite low, due to the large radius. The particles are

free to move about even at high concentrations. On the other end, the fine particles

generate a much higher surface tension due to their smaller size and result in a more

rigid motion of the suspension. A certain amount of shear stress is necessary to overcome

this resistance and allow the material to flow. The intermediate and bimodal mixtures

show no hint of either of these behaviors.

In conjunction with this work, Marine [14] conducted a series of investigations

into the effects of temperature and additives on viscosity. The work involved a falling ball

method to determine the viscosity of the mixture. The ingredients used for the mixture

are the same as those used above.

Figures 3.20 and 3.21 show the viscosity for several temperatures and with the

placement of several propellant additives into monomodal and bimodal mixtures. The

temperature dependence shown in the figures is identical to that found in the PBAN data

in chapter 2 (figure 2.9). The formulation in table 2.2 was followed. Note that the

temperature relationship remains unchanged.

The relationship between viscosity and temperature have been made for polymers

of this type. It is an empirical relationship valid only for small temperature variations of

approximately +/-20°c. The relationship is known as Andrade's equation and is shown in

equation 3.9. The exponent (B) for polybutadiene polymers is 3200°c, the coefficient (A)

is 1.15xlO-3 poise. <I> is the temperature.

~ bindQI = AeBlt Eq. (3.9)

By combining equations 3.1 or 3.2 with equation 3.9, the viscosity for the

suspension can easily be determined.

3.4 Other studies

Before completing this chapter, one other investigation should be stated. This work

focused on the mixer and was intended to determine whether the propellant additives and

curing agent were properly mixed. The ingredients used are the same as those mentioned

above, with the exception of a few mixtures using AP particles.

The use of AP particles was unsuccessful when the separation process was applied.

Microscopic examination showed agglomeration of the particles and a large amount of

residual binder in the suspension examined.

Quantitative analysis of the propellant additives and curing agent also proved

unsuccessful. The process of using solvents to separate the particles from the binder

diluted any curing agent within the mixture and hampered any analysis to determine the

concentration. Work even included using a Fourier Transform Infrared Analysis (FTIR)

to determine the concentration of the curing agent and other additives. The opaque nature

of the mixture hampered any analysis using a die with the mixer.

It is unfortunate that these techniques did not succeed for there are only a very

few available tests which can be conducted on these mixtures. In this particular case, the

porosity of the AP and possibly some chemical reaction between the AP and the HTPB

prevented the separation technique from working.

CHAPTER 4

MULTIPHASE MIXTURE THEORY

67

Results from chapter 3 show that bimodal mixtures possess a simple rheology. No

indication of plastic, dilatant or thixotropic behavior was seen. In fact, they lend

themselves easily to analytical and numerical representation. This chapter presents the

approach taken to develop a computer code which models this material. The bases of the

theory and computational work drew from the study of multiphase mixtures, and extended

it to higher concentrations than have conventionally been examined. Previous work dealt

with material below 50% solid by volume. The theory, computational scheme and results

are presented in this chapter.

The code examined two-dimensional monomodal and bimodal mixture flows

through a pipe. It examined concentrations between 65% and 75%. Due to the high·

concentration, it was necessary to apply all inertial and viscous terms within each

constituent and the entire mixture. The fact that bimodal mixtures were examined made

the work more difficult. In addition, it is unknown if proper boundary conditions can be

found to solve the governing equations.

This chapter will examine the application of the technique to bimodal mixture

specifically, but will focus on the applicability of the technique rather than exploring the

causes of the variations problems mentioned in chapter 2. It is hoped that sufficient

confidence is obtained in the technique so that such exploration can be encouraged.

4.1 Background

The application of multiphase mixture theory in the field of engineering is

wide spread and a great degree of confidence has been placed in both the analytical and

numerical studies resulting from its use. Most work in this area emphasizes liquid-liquid

and liquid-gas mixtures.

The bases of this theory were derived from thermodynamics of diffusion, which

focuses on describing mixtures of gases. It has since grown to describe many more

complex mixtures. Much has been written on this subject. The development of the theory

can be found in Wallis [1], Truesdell [2] and most recently in Soo [4]. The bases for

much of the work presented in this chapter come from Truesdell's approach, with special

emphasis on Passman [15], who extended it to suspensions.

Computational work is just as abundant, including the work of Spalding [3].

GENMIX2P and PHEONICS are the result of his two-phase work and have been regarded

as the most accurate codes. Ishii [16] examines the most common methods used in

computational models and serves as a good summary.

In the work presented in this chapter, the Diffusion Model method will be used.

This involves a continuum description for the mixture and each constituent. This method

has proven the best success in the numerical field and permits the easiest means of

obtaining the proper constitutive relation for each constituent. A basic description of the

model will be given in the next section. For further detail, Passman presents the best

theoretical explanation.

It should be noted that the application of inertial and viscous terms to all the

Page 74: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

69

constituents adds a factor of difficulty to the computational work described previously.

This is further complicated by the lack of infonuation on the boundary conditions and

several quantitative values within the constitutive relations. No attempts have been

targeted for concentrations above 50% and certainly not considering all force tenus. The

closest work was that of Passman, where a I-dimensional solution to a two-phase

suspension was proposed for the shear generated between two parallel plates. The work

leads the way to multidimensional codes with higher concentrations, in addition to

multiphase.

Before addressing the theory, it is important to note that the best technique used

in the field of propellants arises from assuming that the mixture behaves as a

homogeneous material with bingham fluid behavior [17]. The studies now being done in

continuous mixers correlate with this work. Although this method has proven to supply

a good understanding of mixing and casting, the use of multiphase mixture theory should

generate a clear picture on how the constituents behave individually.

4.2 Multiphase Mixture Theory

The following is a description of the model used within the computational work.

In this model, a continuum description is used on the mixture and each constituent of the

mixture. Each constituent occupies each point of the mixture at the same time. The

constraints on the constituents lie in the following three assumption imposed on the

mixture:

1. All properties of the mixture must be mathematical functions of the properties

of the constituents.

Page 75: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

70

2. The motion of each constituent is defmed solely by isolating it from the rest of

the mixture. Allowances are then made for the proper interactions of the other

constituents.

3. The motion of the mixture is governed by the same equations as the

constituents.

The fIrst and the last describe the properties of the mixture. The second describes

the manner in which the constituent properties are to be determined.

The motion of the constituents and the mixture are confined to the conservation

of mass and momentum. The problem under investigation is assumed to have no chemical

reaction. The equations are as follows: (Note that the subscript i refers to a constituent

of the mixture, no subscript refers to the mixture properties. Also note that the notation

for a vector is an overline, double overline for a tensor):

Eq. (4.1)

Eq. (4.2)

where Tj is the partial stress tensor, Bj is the specific body force, M j is the specific

interaction force, pj is the partial density and Vj is the velocity. The constitutive relations

for the constituents are of the form:

Tj = Cj[-1t-Pj+CjAjV'Vj+2V'(<<jVCj)]I

+Cj~ j (VVj+VVj T) -2« jVCjVCj

Eq. (4.3)

where Cj is the concentration, 1t is the interface pressure, ~j is the intergranular contact

Page 76: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

71

pressure, Aj is the bulk viscosity, a j is the concentration distribution modulus, lis the

identity tensor and Jlj is the viscosity.

The specific interaction force term is also constrained by:

LMi = 0 Eq. (4.4)

where the value for the particles is:

Eq. (4.5)

where D is the Stokes' drag of the binder on the particle. The specific interaction force

for the binder can be determined using equations 4.4 and 4.5.

The temperature between constituents at each point is assumed to be the same,

therefore the energy equation for the mixture can be used to solve for it. The energy

equation for the mixture is given as:

Eq. (4.6)

where, is the specific heat, <l> is the temperature and k is the thermal conductivity.

In addition to these conservation equations, the constraint of saturation is also

applied.

Eq. (4.7)

The properties of the mixture must be accordingly defined with respect to the

conservation equations of mass and momentum. The detail is left to reference 15. They

are:

where <l>i is the local density.

4.3 Computational Work

The technique used to solve for the properties of all the constituents and the

mixture was a finite difference scheme. The equations to be solved included the

conservation equations for all the constituents plus the energy equation of the mixture.

The constraint of saturation was also included. The finite difference expressions of the

governing equations were formulated by using a forward time and centered space (FTCS)

finite differencing scheme.

Before any details of the technique can be presented, several points about the flow

problem investigated must be noted:

1. The flow in a pipe was studied. It was assumed to be axisymmetrical, thus all

the derivatives with respect to the angular direction in the equations were set

to zero. All velocities in the angular direction were also set to zero. The flow

was two-dimensional with axial and radial space. Since symmetry existed at the

center line, only half of the profile was examined.

Page 78: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

73

2. The governing equations constituted a closed system. Each constituent has 3

independent unknowns. The mixture has 2 unknowns. The number of governing

equations plus a saturation constraint equals the number of unknowns. If there

are proper boundary conditions, the system of the equations can, theoretically,

be solved.

3. The constitutive relations for the binder and solids corresponded to linear

theory. Microrotation and other high shear effects were neglected. This

condition was well suited to fit the low shear flows the propellant is exposed

to in processing.

4. Within monomodal mixtures, equation 3.1 was used to represent the viscosity

of the solids. Within bimodal mixtures, equation 3.2 was used to represent the

viscosity of the coarse solids, while equation 3.1 was used to represent the fine

solids. This is a very important point. In order to apply this modeling technique

to bimodal mixtures, both coarse and fine viscous terms within momentum

equation must be known. Equation 3.9 was used to allow for the factor of

temperature on viscosity.

5. All constituents were assumed to be incompressible. The particles were assumed

to be rigid.

6. The boundary conditions for the velocities were no slip at the walls. Since no

boundary conditions for the concentrations, pressures and temperature have

been conventionally established, several possibilities are established. Further

discussion is left for the results.

74

A non-dimensionalization of these equations is now presented. The following is

a list of the transformations used (the superscript * refers to a dimensionless variable):

x* = x/L Eq. (4.12)

r* = r/R Eq. (4.13)

Eq. (4.14)

Eq. (4.15)

Eq. (4 .16)

Eq. (4.17)

where L is the length of the pipe, R is the radius of the pipe, Ujnlel is the average velocity

of the mixture entering the pipe, q, b is the binder local density and J,lb is the binder

viscosity.

The axial momentum equation for a constituent is used as an example to show

both the non-dimensional and finite difference scheme. Applying the transformations

above, the dimensionless axial momentum equation becomes:

convenience, the "*,, superscript and the subscript i in the dimensionless equations will

step, meaning new value to be determined, and n-l denotes the (n-l)lb time step, meaning

old value). Solving for the new velocity in equation 4.23, the result is shown in

equation 4.24.

Eq. (4.24)

It is in this manner that the axial momentum equation is used. The radial momentum

equation is used to determine the new radial velocity and the mass equation is used to

determine the new concentration.

Finally, it was necessary to impose a convergence criteria to determine the proper

interface pressure. The technique used to acquire the value of 1t was a modification of the

InterPhase Slip Algorithm (IPSA) used by Spalding [3]. Without any knowledge of the

proper interphase pressure, an initial guess must be made to determine the velocities by

the momentum equation. This guess generates an error in the mass equation and results

in mass generation or destruction. A method of correcting the interface pressure guess was

needed.

The modified IPSA developed uses the sum of the mass equations (equation 4.1)

of each constituent, weighted relative to the constituents' local density respectively. Since

the error is due to an incorrect value of the interface pressure, the velocities in

equation 4.1 are modified to account for this error. The transformation is done by using

equations 4.25 and 4.26.

where '](xacI is the correct value of the interface pressure, ,(kration is the guessed value, d1t

is the correction, the vract is the correct value of the velocity, V/terati6n is the present

iterated value (resulting from the guessed value of the interface pressure), and the partial

derivative within the summation is derived from equation 4.24 for the axial velocities,

respective to each constituent. The partial derivative for the radial velocities are derived

from a similar equation using the radial momentum equation.

The exact velocity value is then inserted into the sum of the mass equations in the

FITS form and the result is a set of linear equations for each node for the correction to

the interface pressure. The error in the mass equations results in a source term within the

linear equations and guides the direction of the correction.

This method proved successful in liquid-liquid studies where a defined interphase

plane existed between the constituents. This is the first time it would be considered to

determine a mixture with no distinguishing interphase plane.

The computational procedure is outlined as follows:

Step 1: Set initial conditions (at t = 0) and boundary conditions. The solution starts with

the establishment of initial values for the concentrations and velocities for all the

constituents, and the interface pressure and temperature for the mixture.

Step 2: The viscosities of the constituents are determined.

Page 83: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

78

Step 3: All new constituent concentrations are calculated using the mass equation. Error

in saturation is eliminated by normalizing all the concentrations to saturation.

Step 4: All new constituent velocities are calculated using the momentum equation and

. the new values of concentration.

Step 5: The errors at each node is determined for each constituent by applying the new

velocities and concentrations to the mass equation, weighted by the local density

of each constituent respectively.

Step 6: A correction to the interphase pressure is determined by using the sum of the

errors for all the constituents. The set of linear equations is solved using a Gauss

Elimination with backward substitution technique.

Step 7: The interphase pressure is corrected in addition to the velocities.

Step 8: The temperature of the mixture is calculated using the new values.

Step 9: Steps 2 through 7 are repeated until the error lies below a set value. Then the next

time step is taken and the program returns to step 1, with the new values

replacing the initial values.

Step 10: When the error has gone below the set value, and when the percentage change

in the concentrations, velocities, interface pressure and temperature are

sufficiently small, the procedure is stopped.

A Fortran program was written to construct this routine. It was run on both a

V AXstation 3100, Model 40 using VMS Digital operating system, and a SUN IPX, using

SUN UNIX operating system. A uniform 102x22 grid system was used. This served to

establish 200 free nodes to evaluate the problem. Care was taken to define the distance

79

between nodes so that it would be large in comparison to the average diameter of the

coarse particles. Non-uniform grid systems were tried but proved to become more

unstable and thus were discontinued.

Note that the calculation of the concentrations and velocities were done in an

explicit manner. The time step serves as the relaxation factor since the flow conditions

examined were steady state. An Alternating Directional Implicit Method (ADI) was tried

in order to speed the convergence but proved to make the procedure unstable. Attempts

to solve the pressure correction equations by similar means proved similar results.

4.4 Results from Program

Figure 4.1 shows the configuration set up for investigating pipe flow. The mesh

size is simplified for illustration purposes.

In the process of generating a stable and convergent code, the boundary conditions

for the concentration and interface pressure were extremely important. Several boundary .

conditions were tried. This included a combination of Dirichlet and Neumann forms at

the wall, inlet and exit. Symmetry was imposed on the center line. The only condition

which produced a working code is shown in figure 4.1. Note that a reference interface

pressure was applied at the inlet. The results which follow arise from imposing these

boundary conditions.

The temperature boundary condition had no dramatic effect on the computational

results, except for the impact that temperature has on the viscosity (equation 3.9). A

constant temperature wall was used. In the worst case when the material entered the pipe

at a temperature 35°c higher than the wall, the viscosity difference which was seen

between the wall and the center of the material were insignificant As a result, the energy

equation was dropped and isothermal conditions were assumed in all further work.

The initial conditions were uniform concentration and axial velocities; and zero

radial velocities and interface pressure throughout the pipe. Changes to the initial axial

velocity were investigated and is discussed later in this section.

The program for bimodal mixtures is shown in appendix C. This includes the input

values for the properties. The specific gravity of the solids was 2.3, the binder was 1. The

viscosity of the binder was 17 poise at 60°c. When the energy equation was applied, the

specific heat of the mixtures were assumed to be governed by the particles and was 0.3

cal/g_Oc. Similar assumptions were made on the thermal conductivity and was 9xlO-4

cal/cm-s-Oc. Parametric studies were done on the constitutive coefficients since present

knowledge of their true values are unknown. Except for these studies, they were set to

zero.

Several programs were made to fully understand the capabilities of the multiphase

mixture and computational technique. Figure 4.2 shows the results for a fluid, a

monomodal and a bimodal code using the algorithm mention in the previous section. The

fluid code was done to compare convergence to a known code. Fluent, a fluid dynamics

simulation code developed by Creare, Incorporated was used to determine the accuracy

of the multiphase codes. As seen in the figure, the fluid code simulated the proper

velocity profile. The monomodal and bimodal behavior are very similar and show a slug

flow behavior.

In evaluating the rate of convergence between the fluid and the monomodal code,

it was found that the monomodal code converges much more rapidly than expected.

Figures 4.3 and 4.4 show the percent change in the interface pressure, axial velocities and

sum of the error as the codes march forward. Note that the rate of convergence of the

fluid system was slow compared to that of highly concentrated suspensions.

Even after 500 time steps, the fluid code showed the slowest rate of convergence

with the percent changes larger than the multiphase codes at the end. The computational

processing time for 500 time iterations exceeds 9 hours on the SUN system and proved

unnecessary. In any subsequent work, iterations of 100 were used to evaluate the solution

for multiphase codes. The time step used was 0.00001 seconds, the space interval was

0.00228 cm. The stability of the code proved to follow a stability where

11 t _ 11x2 2Re

where the Reynolds number is for the suspension.

Eq. (4.27)

Note that the space interval was set so that it was large in comparison to the

coarse particles. This is very important since a continuum requirement has been imposed

on all the constituents. Assuming the propellant formulation shown in table 2.2, the space

interval was 10 times greater than the coarse particles. The restriction on the space

interval may later prove to be a problem if investigating small sections of the mixing or

casting equipment.

To determine the impact of the initial conditions on the results, several axial

velocities were tried. The basic initial condition used for all codes was a uniform axial

velocity. Parabolic and triangular profiles with the same average velocity as the uniforn1

condition were also used, and although the convergence was much slower, the solution

tended toward the same result as shown in figure 4.2.

Figure 4.5 shows the fit of experimental data of chapter 3 to the computational

monomodal solution. A maximum concentration of 65% was found to fit the data best.

This is. done by using the equations for a capillary viscometer [12]. In this case,

equation 3.8 is still valid if Ro is replaced by the pipe radius Rp and equation 3.7 is

replaced with the following:

A very slight dilatation was noted in all the concentrations. Note that the 62% fine

particle data were similar in slope to the 60% curve. Fits of other data can be easily done

by adjusting the values of drag and maximum concentration. But the dilatant behavior

shown was not expected and appears to increase as the concentration rises.

Figures 4.6, 4.7 and 4.8 show variations in the binder viscosity, maximum

concentration and Stokes' drag for the mono modal code. The dash line in figure 4.8

indicates a strong instability in the code (the units are glcm3-s). No change was detected

in changes of the contact force, concentration modulus and bulk viscosity. It was assumed

that this was not due to computational scheme, but due to the flow conditions which were

being modeled. The velocity profiles of each constituent vary only slightly from each

other and were dependent on the magnitude of the drag term. As the drag coefficient rose,

the constituent velocity profiles merged. The largest difference constituted less than 1 %

of the mean value. This is supported by other studies for low concentration [18]. In this

study, concentrations above 40% showed little or no differences in constituent velocities.

Figure 4.9 shows the fit of the bimodal data to the computer code. The figure

shows the flow behavior for several total solid concentrations of a 70/30 coarse/fine ratio

bimodal mixture. A maximum concentration of 90% was found best to fit the data. This

was extremely high. The correlation with the bimodal data is good and matches the results

from the monomodal work above.

CHAPTERS

DISCUSSION

88

The computational model developed in this dissertation proved to be successful

in portraying the propellant suspension. The multiphase mi?tture approach taken is new

in that it has applied inertial and viscous terms for all the constituents. Up to now, a

primary constituent was chosen to possess these factors. The motions of the others would

be governed by the drag induced by this fluid (in the interaction force term). This is

inappropiate for highly concentrated suspensions. With a better understanding of the

rheology for both monomodal and especially bimodal mixtures, the fully stated goveming

equations for all the constituents can be used. The advantage which arises from using

equation 3.2 allows this to be done.

The code was long in lines due to the number of constituents considered. Several

methods were tried to minimize storage and computational processing time. In the end,

the simplest of methods was found to be the best and only method. An iteration of the

governing equations served to work best, taking advantage of the time steps in the FfCS

technique. As for correction to the interface pressure, a Gauss Elimination with backward

substitution proved to solve the problem faster than any other method.

The greatest question concerned the boundary conditions. Set values of pressure

and concentration at the wall proved to generate instability at all initial conditions chosen.

The use of zero gradients for both properties was chosen solely due to the stability of the

solution. The argument can be stated that this condition is valid for the fluid constituent,

Page 94: INFORMATION TO USERS - Open Repositoryarizona.openrepository.com/arizona/bitstream/10150/185817/1/azu_td... · A,2 Average Values for 150-Gallon Batch Runs ... for the mixture and

89

yet it is not clear whether this condition is appropriate for the solids. Should future work

investigate the boundary conditions, the use of IPSA would need to be further modified.

The technique used here does not have the flexibility to have individual constituent

boundary conditions.

A lesser question concerned the dilatant behavior seen in the computational runs.

Although this is known to occur in the flow of solids, such a phenomenon was not

expected due to the newtonian type momentum equations within each constituent. The

slug flow behavior follows in the same light. It would be interesting to apply these

equations to an abrupt opening or a free surface, where the suspension would be free to

swell. This would no doubt result in some concentration changes in the solids, possibly

explaining the casting experiments in the processing studies of chapter 2.

Unfortunately, the application of this investigation would require a tracking of the

free surface and be considered a multiphase mixture problem nested within a two-phase

(gas-suspension) problem. Generation of this model would extend far from present

knowledge and techniques. Any attempt might depend on the development of a technique

analogous to the Volume of Fluid Algorithms (VOFA) which has been used for two-phase

problems [19].

The slug flow shown in figure 4.2 also brings up an interesting question. It may

explain why the curing agent is not reaching the wall of the mixing bowl. Much of the

suspension is undisturb by the presence of the wall in the figure and results in ,little of no

propagation of momentum toward it. A curing agent injected at the center may never

reach the wall but simply lie about the center.

90

It would therefore be important to apply this model to flow conditions similar to

those in the mixer, particularly near the wall at the time the blade sweeps by, to get a

good picture of how the curing agent is dispersed.

In the area of the variation problem, it was clear that the values are large and must

cause concern for mission planning. The work within this dissertation is not intended to

resolve the problem but to indicate a new approach which might help in investigating

processing. What has been gained from this work is a better understanding of the problem

overall, and a means of attacking it with a more scientific approach than has previously

been used. Just from the statements above, more specific and detailed questions are being

asked.

The statistical analysis produced the best picture of the problem. Batch-to-batch

variations and scale-up variations existed in all properties. The lack of any parameter

correlation which would take the blame for the variations was extremely surprising.

Conventional thought targeted mixing time as the number one variable. Yet no

dependence on this variable was seen. A detailed analysis of the processing of 150 gallon

batch runs eliminated the conventional explanations of why variations were occurring.

Particle breakage and propellant curing within the mixer proved to be false. Other factors

such as temperature of the mixture and humidity of the room showed no correlation at

all. More surprising was the dramatic rise in the pre-stored batch burn rate

corresponding to a drop in the end of mix. If only end of cast viscosity was recorded, the

reason for the rise in burn rate would not be as clear. It is now evident that where the

viscosity is taken is important.

APPENDIX A

PROPELLANT DATA FOR VARIATION STUDY

A.1 Data Collection

The data collected compose sixty ISO-gallon and eleven I-gallon batch runs of

propellant processed at the JPL/EAF facility. Processing was done by JPL personnel.

Inspection of the processing and testing techniques on several runs was done before

studying the data. Lotus 123 software by Lotus Development Corporation was used to

record the data. This data is presented at the end of this section.

A.2 Average Values for 1S0-Gallon Batch Runs

The following are the average values and standard deviations for main properties

of the propellant. Due to the small amount of data available for the I-gallon batch runs,

average values were not taken. Scale-up comparisons presented in chapter 2 are with runs

1, 2, 4 and 9 for the 0.01% ferric oxide propellant, and 11 for the 0.04% ferric oxide

propellant of I-gallon size. This allowed for a close match in the ingredient lots used

between batch sizes.

B.1 Orifice Viscometer

APPENDIX B

RHEOLOGICAL DATA

133

Flow data were acquired using an orifice viscometer similar to the one used by

Chong [5]. The device was machined in two parts, a cylinder and an orifice plate. The

cylinder was 5 cm (2 in.) in inner diameter and 19 cm (7.5 in.) long. Figure B.1 shows

a schematic of the orifice viscometer and detail of the orifice plate. A water jacket

surrounded the cylinder to control the suspension temperature and a thermocouple was

place at the base, 1 cm above the plate. The thermocouple extended in from the inner

cylinder wall by only 0.5 cm and did not disturb the main flow. Several orifice plates

were machined. Table B.1 lists the configurations.

Mercury and water manometers were set up to measure the pressure differential

between the orifice chamber and the laboratory. An Ohaus, Galaxy Model4000D weight

scale was used to weigh the sample weight vessels collecting material extruding from the

plate.

The suspension was placed in the viscometer and the distance from the suspension

to the top of the viscometer recorded. When pressure was applied to the device, the

suspension extruded from the orifice and was collected in a sample vessels. Material was

collected continuously as the proper pressure setting was adjusted and steady state

conditions were reached. Then another sample vessel was used to collect material while

the time was recorded to determine flow rates. Both vessels were weighed. At each

pressure setting, the pressure was recorded before and after the time measurement. The

data acquired are given in the following sections. Except for the data calculations shown

below, where shear stress and shear rate data are determined, all other data were

condensed using a software known as Grapher from Golden Software, Incorporated. This

included best line fits.

The calibration fluids HT600 and HT1000 were acquired from Brookfield,

Incorporated and corresponded to viscosities of 578.60 and 974.40 poise at 25°c. The

HTPB was acquired from Sartomer Company and corresponded to viscosities of 60 and

17 poise for 25 and 60°c, respectively. This binder had a specific gravity of 0.90. The

Intermediate and Fine particles were acquired from Zeelan Industries, Incorporated and

corresponded to specific gravities of2.1 and 2.3. The information above was supplied by

the sources. This includes the microtrac particle size distributions shown in chapter 3. The

coarse particles were obtained from Grainger, a local supplier of industrial and

commercial supplies. Density measurements gave a specific gravity of 2.5. Due to their

large diameter, the coarse particle size distribution was acquired by sieving.

The following is a sample calculation for the first pressure setting of suspension 1.

Density of suspension = 1.5540 g/cc

Drop in height due to loss of material into sample wt vessel A =

«20.32-19.80)+(29.02-28.64)/2)/(1.5540* 19.64) = 0.0233 cm

Hydrostatic pressure = 1.5540*(19.00-8.64-0.0233)*980.67 = 15752.73 g/cm S2

Shear stress = «2.10*33863.90)+15752.73)/2 = 43351.70 g/cm S2

43.3517 (x102) Pa

Volumetric flowrate = (29.02-28.64)/(1.5540*173.29) = 0.0014 cc/s

Shear rate = 4*0.0014/(3.1416*(0.2760/2)3) = 0.6836
