액체 램제트 엔진의 특성은 흡입구를 통해 들어오는 유입공기의 상태에 따라 많이 달라진다. 흡입구에 들어오는 공기의 유입각이 일정각도를 넘어서면 유입공기의 왜곡이 심하여 정상적인 연소가 불가능 할 수 있다. 따라서 다양한 비행조건에 따른 램제트 엔진의 특성을 파악하기 위하여 외부 유입영역, 흡입구, 연소기, 노즐 및 출구 대기 영역을 함께 계산하여 유동 특성과 연소 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 흡입구는 마하 2.0을 기준으로 설계하고, 4각 덕트에서 완만하게 원형 덕트로 변화되는 확대관의 형상으로 비행체에 붙어 있는 것으로 격자를 구성하였다. 흡입구에서의 유동 조건은 비행체을 지난 유속이 마하 2.0과 2.2의 경우에 대하여 수치 실험을 수행하였으며, 비반응 유동 해석과 연소가 있는 반응 유동해석 결과를 흡입구를 포함하지 않았던 선행 연구 결과들과 비교하였다. 유입각이 영 일 때의 흡입구를 포함한 계산 결과는 흡입구에서 생성되는 충격파에 의한 손실로 총압력이 흡입구를 포함하지 않았던 선행 연구 결과와 차이가 있었으나 유동 특성에는 큰 차이가 없었다. 그러나 유입각이 증가함에 따라 흡입구로 유입되는 공기의 량이 감소하고 그에 따른 유동의 왜곡이 심하여 연소특성에 변화를 보여 주었다.

In a Direct Connect(DC) mode altitude engine test, a labyrinth seal is set up between an air intake duct and an engine. The labyrinth seal plays a key role in mechanically isolating them, which contributes to the accurate measurement of thrust and the other component forces. However, when high vertical temperature gradient is generated in the supplied air in the duct, the isolation breaks down. In this paper, a labyrinth seal control device is designed and installed in an effort to eliminate the issue. Test result shows the device successfully gets rid of the contact problem even when high vertical temperature gradient is produced.

An intake of Aircraft becomes S-shaped geometry due to spatial limitation or procuring survivability. But curvature of the S-shaped geometry makes secondary flow or flow separation which is the cause of non-uniform pressure distribution. In this study, boundary layer suction is applied to RAE M 2129 S-Duct by attaching sub duct. Design variable is suction location and angle. A mass flow rate drawn out by suction at the sub duct outlet is constant over every model. A grid dependency test was conducted to verify validity of computation. The comparison among the CFD (Computation Fluid Dynamics), ARA experimental result, and ARA computation result of non-dimensional pressure distribution on the Port side and Starboard Side confirmed the validity of CFD. In this study, Distortion Coefficient was used for evaluating aerodynamic performance of S-Duct. The analysis, which was about flow separation, vortex, mass flow rate distribution, and pressure distribution were also investigated. Maximum 26.14% reduction in Distortion Coefficient was verified.

A turboprop aircraft for this study is required to operate at icing condition in order that it performs its given mission. So an air intake system of the turboprop aircraft should be designed and verified not only to provide the maximum possible total pressure at engine inlet at normal flight condition, but also to include an inertial separator which protects Foreign Object Debris (FOD) like ice or snow at icing condition from entering into the engine inlet screen which can cause or lead an catastrophic engine failure like engine flame-out or severe damage. So an air intake assembly incorporating a variable geometry inertial separator has been designed and then CFD/structural analysis for the assembly was performed to see its design results. Then 35% scaled model of the air intake assembly was manufactured and wind tunnel test was done. This paper describes the detailed design results for the aerodynamic design, analysis and wind tunnel testing during the development process of the air intake assembly.

In order to improve the durability of components in the vehicle engine room, an experiment to improve the air cooling effect of components by installing a cooling duct using intake air aiming at four components, such as generator, battery, ECU and power steel oil, Respectively, experimental results show that the overall component temperature has been reduced, and the reduced temperature difference is in the order of generator, ECU, power steel oil and battery. In order to improve the temperature difference due to these components, it is necessary to optimize the design through the flow analysis in the duct in the future.

In this study, the model of the indirect wind suction waste sorting machine for characteristics of the screening of waste was studied using computational fluid dynamics and the drag coefficient for the model and the suction wind speed were obtained. The wind separator are developing by installing a cyclone air outlet to the suction blower impeller waste is selective in a way that does not pass the features and characteristics of the inlet pipe of the pressure loss and separation efficiency can have a significant impact on. Using Wind separator for selection of waste in the waste prior research on the aerodynamic properties are essential. For plastic cases, it is reasonable to take the drag coefficient between 0.8 and 1.0, and for cans, compression depending on whether the cans, the drag coefficient is in the range from 0.2 to 0.7. The separation efficiency of waste as change suction speed was the highest efficiency when the suction speed was 25~26 m/s. Shape of the inlet, depending on how the transfer pipe of the duct pressure loss occurs because the inlet velocity changes through the appropriate design standards to allow for continued research is needed.

Aircraft needs an inlet duct to supply the airflow to engine face. A fighter aircraft that requires low radar observability has to hide the engine face in the fuselage to reduce the Radar Cross Section(RCS). Therefore, the flow path of the inlet duct is changed into S-shape. The performance of the aircraft engine is known to be influenced by the shape and the centerline curvature of the S-Duct. In this study, CFD analysis of the RAE M 2129 S-Duct has been performed to investigate the influence of aspect ratio of inlet geometry. The performance of the S-Duct is evaluated in terms of the distortion coefficient. To simulate the flow under adverse pressure gradient better, $k-{\omega}SST$ turbulence model is employed. The computational results are validated with the ARA experimental data. The secondary flow and the flow separation are observed for all computational cases, while the semi-circular geometry has been found to produce the best results.

Shape memory alloys (SMA) are often used in smart structures as active components. Their ability to provide large recovery forces and displacements has been useful in many applications, including devices for artificial muscles, active structural acoustic control, and shape control. Based on the 3-dimensional SMA constitutive equation in this paper, the radial displacement control of externally pressurized circular and semicircular composite cylinders under external pressure with a thin SMA layer bonded on its inner surface or inserted between composite layers in investigated using 3-dimensional finite element analysis. Upon actuation through resistive heating, SMAs start to transform from martensitic into austenitic state, simultaneously recover the prestrain, and thus cause the composite cylinders to go back to their original shapes of the cylinder cross-sections.
