액체로켓 엔진의 분사기와 연소실 설계에 사용될 재생냉각형 칼로리미터의 냉각유로를 설계하였다. 사용할 펌프의 수두는 5기압이며 이로써 끓는점 아래에서 작동할 수 있고 동시에 넓은 냉각 면적을 가지는 유로의 형상을 결정하였다. 유로에서의 압력강하와 온도분포는 전산유동해석에 의하여 구하였고 열부하는 기존의 연소 해석과 1차원해석에 의한 결과를 적용하였다. 해석결과로서 유로의 폭이 4mm에서 2.5mm까지 2단계로 줄었다가 다시 2단계로 늘어나는 냉각유로를 설계하였으며 이 때 높이는 2mm로 일정하게 유지하였다. 유량 변화에 의한 레이놀즈 수는 1.9$\times$$10^4$, 2.4$\times$$10^4$, 2.9$\times$$10^4$이며 세 경우 모두 주어진 펌프수두 이내의 압력강하를 보였으나 온도상승과 성능상의 여유를 고려하여 레이놀즈 수 2.4$\times$$10^4$인 경우를 최종 설계안으로 결정하였다.

The 30 tonf-class liquid rocket combustor currently being developed is designed to connect the fuel feeding line at a middle position of the supersonic nozzle in order to reduce both pressure loss in the regenerative cooling passage and overall envelope of the thrust chamber in spite of increase in design complexity. To verify the design of cooling passages including fuel ring, connecting holes, two-directional cooling channels and collectors, numerical analysis has been performed.

피동 원자로용기 냉각계통은 원자로 용기를 둘러싸고 있는 격납공기 외부가 공기에 자연순환에 의해 냉각하는 방식으로 공기 흐름 구동력은 원자로용기의 외부 유로의 공기와 주변 대기와의 밀도 차이에 의하여 피동적으로 형성됨에 따라 높은 작동 신뢰성이 보장된 개념으로서 본 연구에서는 공기입구 위치에 따른 영향 및 격납용기와 유로 벽면간의 복사 효과 까지를 고려 할 수 있도록 해석 모형을 개선 시키고 개선된 모형을 이용하여 계통을 구성하는 설계인자들이 계통의 성능 및 크기에 미치는 영향등을 분석하였다. 이러한 분석을 통하여 공기의 입구 위치가 계통의 열제거용량에 미치는 영향, 상향공기 유로에서의 복사 열전달 고려 유무가 해석 결과에 미치는 영향 그리고 설계인자와 계통 성능간의 상관성을 밝혔다.

A numerical heat transfer analysis and the structural analysis were performed for the design of sub-scale combustion chamber's coolant passage. The heat flux through the combustion chamber wall was estimated by 2-D heat transfer analysis of compressible hot gas and the result was applied as a thermal boundary condition of 3-D analysis. The heat flux estimated by the present method agreed well with the experimental correlation and proved to be insensitive to cooling condition. So the same thermal boundary condition was applied for various operating conditions. The maximum temperature of combustion chamber wall was predicted by 3-D analysis for single coolant passage and the result will be used for the development of a regeneratively cooled combustion chamber. Also estimated were the stress distribution and structural safety of coolant passage through the static structural analysis.

This paper presents the flow passage design for a window cooling device, which have a conical poppet valve and an emissive orifice. Computational flow analysis and experiment are conducted according to the poppet strokes. The results show satisfactory flow characteristics that pressure is reduced enough to endure material strength and the flow does not choked inside window. The correction factor of discharge coefficients is found between 2-dimensional analysis and experiments, which is applied to control coolant flow rates of the window cooling device.

Applicability of regenerative cooling in 2,500 N-class bipropellant thruster using hydrogen peroxide and kerosene was considered for improvement of performance and application in various missions. Calculation was performed by one dimensional approach using hydrogen peroxide as a coolant. The heat flux of thruster at nozzle throat was estimated at 18 - 20 MW/$m^2$. Designed cooling channel width and height were 2.5 mm and 0.5 mm, respectively. Based on designed cooling channel configuration, flat plate model was manufactured and tested for estimation of pressure drop in cooling channel, and CFD analysis was compared with the test result. The maximum error between CFD analysis and experimental result was approximately 13% and average error was approximately 5%.

Regenerative cooling passage to guarantee the thermal survivability in high performance rocket engine combustors could have complex configurations of the branching/merging of channels and flow turning, etc. By applying the classical hydraulic coefficients which can be found in the literature according to the flow conditions, hydraulic characteristics in regenerative cooling passages can be obtained effectively through dividing the pressure loss into friction loss and local resistance loss. Satisfactory agreement has been obtained by comparing the present results with experimental measurement of water flow test. In addition, the present results were in good agreement with CFD results when the actual coolant, kerosene was used. Therefore, the application of the present method is expected to be useful to design regeneratively cooled combustors.

A design study on the cooling channel configuration in a regeneratively cooled supersonic combustor was performed. The flow parameters on the hot- and cold-side channels were calculated using a quasi-one-dimensional model. The heat transfer between these two sides was estimated as a part of the flow calculation. For the reference configuration, the total amount of heat exchanged was 10.7 kW, the heat flux was $566kW/m^2$, and the fuel temperature increase between the inlet and outlet was 153 K. Seven designs of the heat exchanger channel were compared for their heat transfer performance.

A vacuum brazed cooling passage for an aircraft engine controller was designed. In order to predict the total pressure loss, which is the main design factor of the cooling passage, theoretical and numerical methods for the major loss and the minor loss considering the overall shape of the cooling passage are presented. This design and evaluation method can predict the pressure loss of the complex cooling passage shape for various flow conditions at the initial design step.
