고성능 다단연소싸이클 엔진은 산화제과잉 예연소기를 사용한다. 예연소기 후류에 위치한 배관 및 연소기 헤드 등은 고온/고압 산화제 과잉 환경에 놓이게 되며, 운용 조건에서는 국부적으로 온도를 상승시키는 외부 발화제에 의하여 녹는점보다 낮은 온도에서 재질이 발화될 수 있다. 따라서, 이러한 환경에 적합한 재질 및 코팅은 내산화성, 내인화성 및 자발화성도 중요하나, 외부 발화제에 의한 내발화성이 가장 중요한 특성이 된다. 여기서는 이러한 환경에 적합하며 지상 시험용 노즐 및 배관에 적용될 수 있는 재질 및 코팅에 대하여 조사한다. 러시아는 이미 이러한 환경에 적합한 재질 및 코팅들을 개발하여 RD-170, 180에 적용 중이다. 그러나 미국은 최근에 이러한 연구를 시작한 것으로 추정된다. 따라서 자료 접근이 가능한 범위에서 러시아의 재질 및 코팅을 조사하며, 미국 자료에서는 산소 시스템 안전 등과 같이 간접적인 자료들을 통하여 대체가 가능한 후보 재질 및 코팅을 조사한다. 다단연소싸이클 연소시험 배관에 적용할 수 있는 방법은 다음과 같다. 코팅 없이 Monel K500을 사용하거나, OFHC 혹은 Ni 라이너에 고강도 외피를 사용하는 방법이 있으나, 두 방법 모두 재질의 가격 및 수급, 라이너 적용 방법 등이 어려울 수 있다. 국내에서 산화제과잉 가스 환경에서 적용할 수 있는 법랑을 개발하거나 수급이 용이한 법랑을 찾아 오스테나이트 스테인리스강에 적용하는 방법이 있다. 이 방법은 외부 발화제에 대한 내발화성을 증가시키는 경제적이고 용이한 방법으로 판단된다.

Metal cutting operations involve generation of heat due to friction between the tool and the pieces. This heat needs to be carried away otherwise it creates white spots. To reduce this abnormal heat cutting fluid is used. Cutting fluid also has an important role in the lubrication of the cutting edges of machine tools and the pieces they are shaping, and in sluicing away the resulting swarf. As a cutting fluid, water is a great conductor of heat but is not stable at high temperatures, so to improve stability an emulsion type mixed fluid with water and oil is often used. It is pumped over the cutting site of cutting machines as a state of atomized water droplet coated with oil by using jet. In this paper, to develop cutting fluid supplying nozzle to obtain ultra thin oil film for coating water droplet, a numerical analysis of three dimensional mixed fluid Jet through multi-stage nozzle was carried out by using a finite volume method. Jet flow characteristics such as nozzle exit velocity, development of mixing region, re-entrance and jet intensity were analyzed. Detailed mixing process of fluids such as air, water and oil in the nozzle were also investigated. It is easy to understand complex flow pattern in multi-stage nozzle. Important flow Information for advance design of cutting fluid supplying nozzle was drawn.

An experimental study on the spray characteristics of Gas-centered swirl coaxial injectors(GCSCI) for high-performance staged combustion rocket engines has been carried out using cold flow tests. In this study, water and gaseous nitrogen are used as working fluids and a back-lit photography technique with image processing for the measurements of spray characteristics. Our study is focused on the effect of injector geometries like as gap thickness of liquid nozzle and gas nozzle and momentum flux ratio for fundamental understanding of the injectors.

Recently, on-line process monitoring systems using sensors are being extensively used to produce highquality products. However, the difficulty in installing the sensors within the mold in the cases of micro-molds, optical molds, and molds with complex structures is a serious disadvantage of such process monitoring systems. In this study, the quantitative index of a process monitoring system was evaluated with the mold cavity pressure and the nozzle pressure for the injection molding machine. In order to evaluate the effect of the nozzle pressure, we performed correlation analysis for the weight of the molded product. We also examined the control characteristics of the injection molding machine by analyzing the effect of multistage injection speed, holding pressure, and injection pressure limit on the process monitoring data.

It was designed and tested at the design point that an oxidizer rich preburner for a staged combustion liquid rocket engine propelled by kerosene and LOx. The oxidizer rich preburner was designed as some of LOx injected from the mixing head was burned with kerosene and the rest of LOx injected from injection holes in the regenerative cooling chamber was vaporized by combustion gas. The preburner is operated at OF ratio of 60 and combustion pressure of 20 MPa. The Preburner has a honey-comb type mixing head with simplex swirl injectors, a turbulence ring improving combustion stability and uniformity of product gas temperature distribution, and a nozzle simulating the duct. With the combustion test results at the design point, the oxidizer rich preburner showed high combustion stability and uniformity of product gas temperature distribution.

A rotating stall, an instable phenomenon of compressor, brings about reducing the pressure rise, the efficiency of compressor and a mechanical demage. In order to improve instability and extend operating range, it was performed that a stability enhancement experiment applying air injection method at the 4-stage low-speed axial compressor. The coanda nozzle was used to inject air in axial direction at rotor tip and 8 injectors were set up at regular interval at the upstream of 1st stage rotor. At 80% speed, injectors were worked before rotating stall happened. As injecting the 5.4% air of mode inception flow rate, the stability of compressor operation enhanced about 4%.

The oxidizer-rich preburner's combustion tests were fulfilled in the development process of staged combustion cycle rocket engines. The exhaust plume from an oxidizer-rich preburner is relatively transparent because combustion takes place in oxidizer rich state. During hot fire tests a still and infrared images were captured to visualize the plume structure, temperature distribution and so on. In addition, the exhaust plume was numerically investigated to figure out the detailed characteristics. The combustion was not considered for the numerical modeling, but the mixing of exhaust plume with circumstantial air was modeled by species transport model with several turbulence models. The inner structure of plume was configured out by the comparison of numerical results with experimental results, and the validity of applied numerical models was verified.

In this study, a radial inflow type turbine was applied and the outer diameter of the turbine rotor was 108 mm. The turbine blade on a circular plate disc was designed as an axial-type because its partial admission rate was 1.4-4.1%. The turbine consisted of three stages. The performance test has been conducted with various admission rates, tip clearances and nozzle flow angles. The turbine output power was measured on each stage. The turbine performance was obtained in a wide rotational speed range in order to compare its performance according to various operating conditions. The net specific output torque was also measured to compare its overall performance. Computational analysis was conducted for predicting turbine performance. The computed results were in good agreement with the experimental results.

Problems created by supersonic jet impinging on solid objects or ground arise in a variety of situations. For example multi-stage rocket separation, deep-space docking, V/STOL aircraft, jet-engine exhaust, gas-turbine blade, terrestrial rocket launch, and so on. These impinging jet flows generally contain a complex structures. (mixed subsonic and supersonic regions, interacting shocks and expansion waves, regions of turbulent shear layer) This paper describes experimental works on the phenomena (surface pressure distribution, flow visualization) when underexpanded supersonic jets impinge on the perpendicular, inclined plate using a supersonic cold-(low system. The used supersonic nozzle is convergent-divergent type, exit Mach number 2, The maximum on the plate when it was inclined was much larger than perpendicular plate, owing to high pressure recoveries through multiple shocks. Surface pressure distribution as to underexpanded ratio showed similar patterns together.
