KSLV-II, a new launch vehicle of Korea, requires a new launch complex(LC) for its own and proper launch operations. The new launch complex will be constructed in NARO Space Center neighboring KSLV-I launch complex for maximizing operation efficiency and economic matters. The launch complex consists of three ground support equipments, i.e., mechanical, electrical, and fuel in general. The fuel ground support equipment could be defined as a combination of systems for storage and supply of propellants and gases which are required by a launch vehicle. The compositions, functions and capabilities of fuel ground support equipment are introduced in this paper. In addition, basic design results of flame deflector configurations are included.

Auto Pilot is the system which move automatically the vessel through locating operation mode to automatic after entering operating course using a electronic chart or plotter. And water jet is the a propulsion system that make a power to push the vessel through spouting the accelerated water which is absorbed by the hole in the bottom of vessel. The water jet receive the effect of the depth of water lowly, it's acceleration efficiency is higher under high speed and have an advantage on vibrating and floating sound, so it's demand is increasing as new propulsion system. However, the signal systems of auto pilot and water jet are different, we need the system to interface between each system. We designed the interface that efficiently digital feed back control embedded module between auto pilot and water jet system in this paper.

During the Cold War, all space developments were focused on the performance only. However economy becomes more important for space development after the Cold War. There is a growing interest in reusable launch vehicle to secure the economic feasibility. In this paper, technology development prospects and direction of reusable launch vehicles and future propulsion systems of various countries are presented.

A high temperature heater is required to supply high temperature air to the hypersonic propulsion system in order to simulate high velocity flying condition during the ground test. Various high temperature heaters were reviewed, categorized, and analyzed in this paper. Heaters were categorized in 4 groups; in-stream combustion heater, electric arc heater, storage heater, and heat exchange heater. Each group has its own advantages and disadvantages, so the heater should be selected considering its purpose.

In this paper, AC electric vehicle propulsion system(Converter/Inverter) using high power semiconductor, IPM is proposed. 2-Parallel operation of two PWM converter is adopted for increasing capacity of system and the harmonic content is eliminated by the phase shaft between two PWM converters switching phase. VVVF inverter control is used a mixed control algorithm, where the vector control strategy at low speed region and slip-frequency control strategy at high speed region. The proposed propulsion system is verified by experimental results with a 1,350kW converter and 1,100kVA inverter with four 210kW traction motors.

The flame stabilization is one of the topics which have to be solved for the airbreathing propulsion systems, using the entering air which is supersonic velocity as an oxygen sources. Making a recirculation zone with an eddy flow, installed the reducing velocity devices such as the bluff body, is the typical method of the flame stabilization. Recently using a cavity flame stabilization at the wall is an emerging technique as an effective method which extends the stabilization zone, and the related research papers have been published on the flow separation and reattachment, pressures and oscillations including length/depth ratios in the cavities. Even though, still there are lots of topics to study more in the cavity flame stabilization field as the preceding techniques, as well as the research and the development of the airbreathing propulsion system itself.

At the early stages of development of high-speed propulsion systems, associated uncertainties cannot be easily modeled into probabilistic distributions, owing to the lack of test data, cost, and difficulty of simulating real-flight environments on the ground. To tackle this issue, in this research, the combustion efficiencies of dual-combustion ramjet engines are assumed to have been provided by experts and quantified by evidence theory. Using quantified uncertainty, the inlet area and combustor exit are optimized while satisfying reliability margins of thrust and thermal choking. The result shows a reasonable design of the engine under uncertain circumstances.

KTX control systems mutually control OBCS, ATC, MBU, TECA, MDT, ABU, HVAC, TRAE, PID and FDTR, KTX OBCS as master, and controls other sub-control devices as slave, using various serial lines. In order to analyze physical structure of various serial link lines and mutual data transmission structure, serial line analyzer is used in many ways. To use serial line analyzer, prior and professional technics about High Speed Train and experience of using device are necessary. In spite of difficult situation of space and environment where we work for maintenance of High Speed Train, in presenting basic structure about physical connection method aquired by sub-device serial line data collection and about communication data analysis, I hope that this research will be helpful for the person who work for similar area. Also, I hope that this research will help diagnostic work of High Speed Train, which is necessary for test run of independently developed High Speed Train.

Auto Pilot is the system which move automatically the vessel through locating operation mode to automatic after entering operating course using a electronic chart or plotter. And water jet is the a propulsion system that make a power to push the vessel through spouting the accelerated water which is absolbed by the hole in the bottom of vessel. The water jet receive the effect of the depth of water lowly, it's acceletion efficiency is higher under high speed and have an advantage on vibrating and floating sound, so it's demand is increasing as new propulsion system. However, the signal systems of auto Pilot and water jet are defferant, we need the system to communicate between each system. We propose the interface system which communicate between Auto pilot and water jet efficiently in this journal.

This paper presents the current-fed inverter of a TGV-K traction system with thyristor switches using phase control and commutation techniques. The current-fed inverters have two modes of operation which consist of forced commutation and natural commutation. In forced commutation mode, at speed of less than 120km/h, commutation is forced by means of the commutation capacitors and the thyristors. Above 120km/h, the thyristors operate in natural commutation mode. according to the voltages between phases of the motors. In this paper. the power conversion theory of the TGV-K traction system and the control principle of the converter and current-fed inverter are discussed.
