Research Abstract |
In a development study of the air-turbo-ramjet (ATR) engine for a space plane, application of carbon-carbon (C/C) composites play an important role to achieve expected performance of the engine. Above all, dovetail joint structures are one of the key structure to realize the turbine structure using C/C composites. From this point of view, a feasibility study was carried out analytically and experimentally. Tensile tests were carried out on the simplified dovetail joint model made of two and three dimensionally reinforced C/C composites. A shoulder angle of the dovetail was taken as a parameter to optimize a shape of the dovetail. Finite Element analysis was also carried out for various shoulder angles. Results suggests that fracture of the dovetail joint is controlled by the average shear stress, which imply shear stress concentration on the shoulder is relaxed during failure process of the C/C composites. It is also shown that the dovetail joint made of C/C composites is feasible for the ATR engine.
