The concept design of joint part between propellant tank and feeding line for launch vehicle has been performed with the case study of oversea launch vehicles. we carried out, for the several configurations, numerical flow analyses to find the joint configuration which promises high flow uniformity at the outlet. There were a little difference in the numerical results, because the length of feeding lines are sufficiently long to stabilize the flow field.

In this study, the various supply system of LRE such as a feed-line, an elbow, and an orifice as a part of integrated analyzing has been combined to develop the performance analysis program. Computational analysis has been used to compare the results and to verify the validity and limitation conditions of the performance analysis program by changing orifice positions.

A basic design for a Technical Development Model (TDM) of liquid oxygen lines from the turbopump exit to the oxidizer valves of the combustion chamber and the gas generator was conducted to develop a turbopump-fed liquid rocket engine. The TDM is composed of straight lines, elbows, bellows, a branch, an orifice, flanges and a heat insulator. Materials were determined by consideration of operation conditions, weight constraint and manufacturing procedures. The size and the location of each component were determined by flow analysis of the required flowrate and the pressure loss. Basic designs of the components were conducted by consideration of the operating temperature and the maximum expectation operating pressure. The safety factors were evaluated by structural analysis of design of each component.

The performance test of recirculation line in propellant feeding system was carried out. Liquid oxygen was used as cryogenic propellant and helium was used as recirculation promotion gas. Tests were done in cases at atmospheric pressure and at pressure of 4 barg in the ullage space of propellant tank. Liquid oxygen recirculation flowrate with helium injection flowrate and temperature distribution along the line were measured. There was appropriate helium injection flowrate for gas-lift recirculation system. Test data were used to make calculation program by test data correlation method. In this paper the procedure of calculation was presented and the results were compared to test data.

The various ground support equipments are necessary for KSLV-II ground operation at the assembly building located in Naro Space Center. Among the various ground support equipments, the launch vehicle connection unit and high pressure flexible hose are important elements, because they are used for connection between the ground compressed gas supply system and the launch vehicle. In this paper, the development progress of the launch vehicle connection unit and high pressure flexible hose are introduced.

The Korean Government has proceeded petroleum gas pipeline construction business since 2014 for rural districts. The operating pressure of petroleum gas pipeline are from 25kPa to 75kPa which are different from that of natural gas pipeline. Petroleum gas pipeline pressure is ten or forty times higher than natural gas operating pressure. For this reason, petroleum gas pipeline has higher probability of accident occurrence from massive gas leakage. Korea Gas Safety Corporation begins to development excess flow valves and their performance testing equipment since 2017. The excess flow valves stop the gas flow when a overflow happened in gas pipeline. The excess flow valves are generally not installed in main pipeline, because that may block massive gas supply. So, the valves are installed in starting points of branch pipes. According to the number of house and amount of gas use, a shut-off point of exxcess flow valve is determined called as Trip Flow. The trip point is the most important thing of excess flow valve, so, it is required a equipment testing the performances of excess flow valve as trip point.

Because of the continuous growth of energy consumption, and also tile tendency to site power lines and pipelines along the same routes, the close proximity of high voltage structures and metallic pipelines has become more and more frequent. Recently, the results of assessment about a system integrity are needed in korea also when a gas pipeline is running parallel with high voltage power line in same submarine tunnel, Therefore, we analyze the system integrity(AC corrosion of pipe, melting of pipeline coating, safety of insulation flange, especially cathodic protection system which are rectifier and CI(cathodic Isolator)) resulting from the influence of high voltage power system.

The underground buried pipelines of Natural gas are relatively safer than any other pipelines of chemical plants, because Natural gas is non-corrosive fluid. But Natural gas is supplied normally the downtown area. So, it may be a disaster because of corrosion which is caused interference facilities, environment and third party accident which is caused facilities construction. Especially, it is very difficult to find out and inspect damages of pipeline because of buried pipelines. Therefore this paper approached to select and manage risk region pipelines according to introduction of underground buried pipeline's risk concept. Risk was indicated three parts - corrosion factor, design and construction factor, maintence and management factor - in this paper, Therefore qualitive risk of pipelines showed score as quantitative number. Also it was thought to be helpful in confidence and safety management that the concept of key index and failure supplementation measures to cost introduces this program. We developed this risk assessment program using visual basic tool and interfaced GIS.

Effects of an orifice on suppression of pressure oscillation in a fluid feeding line are investigated numerically through the installation of an orifice inside the feeding line. Based on linear acoustic theory, acoustic-damping effect of an orifice is emphasized in this study. When an orifice is installed at the node of pressure oscillation corresponding to the anti-node of velocity oscillation, damping capacity is maximized. On the other hand, the orifice installed at the anti-node of pressure oscillation has little damping capacity. As the blockage ratio and thickness of an orifice increase in the feeding line, damping factor increases. The feeding line with smaller diameter has more damping capacity, but damping factor increases more appreciably with blockage ratio in the feeding line with larger diameter.
