The procedure of design and manufacture of sub-scale combustor using bipropellant swirl injector with external mixing for a liquid rocket engine are described. The results of cold flow test, ignition test and combustion test of the sub-scale combustor are also given in this paper. The sub-scale combustor uses liquid oxygen(LOx) and kerosene as propellants and has a injector head, an ablative material combustor wall and a water cooled nozzle. The injector head has LOx manifold, fuel manifold, fire face plate, one center swirl injector and 18 main swirl injectors. The cold flow, ignition and combustion tests were successfully performed without damage of combustor. Results of hot firing tests show that combustion efficiency meets the target of design and operations of start and stop cyclogram are stable and high frequency combustion instability does not occur.

After over a century of effort by researchers and engineers, the problem of bluff body flow, in particular vortex shedding frequency, remains almost entirely in the empirical, descriptive realm of knowledge. Computational methods have been systematically applied for vortex-induced vibrations of the cable-stayed bridge with steel composite deck by unsteady wind loadings due to vortex-shedding. The focus of this paper is to predict the vortex-induced vibration of the cable-stayed bridge with steel composite deck based computational fluid dynamics(CFD).

Design and experiments of a nondestructive testing system with a solenoid eddy current sensor to inspect deterioration of ASCR-OC (ACSR Outdoor Cross-linked Polyethylene Insulated Wires) usually used in HV overhead distribution lines in domestic areas in presented in this paper. Through corrosion mechanisms and deterioration results for ACSR-OC conductors are examined, it is shown that corrosion may lead to the reduction of the effective cross section area of conductors is proposed. The measurement system consisting of a constant current source with a RF frequency, a signal processing unit and a motor driver/ controller is designed and implemented. This instrument has such capabilities as detecting the sensor output and estimating diameter change of the testing conductors, continuously. As a result, it was verified that such corrosion detector system with an eddy current sensor can be shown good effectiveness for estimating the serious faults due to deterioration in overhead distribution lines and giving an early warming before severe aged conductor may lead to fail.

For the active control of a combustion instability, a change should be made in pressure fluctuation or heat release fluctuation using an acoustic driver or a secondary fuel injection. Also, to determine the location and timing of a secondary fuel injection, one needs to know the distribution of heat release fluctuation under combustion instability. In the present research, the distribution of heat release fluctuation has been experimentally measured by changing hydrocarbon fuel, inlet velocity, equivalence ratio, and acoustic forcing condition. It was confirmed that heat release fluctuation with regards to vortex shedding was significantly affected by the $Damk{\ddot{o}}hler$ number. Under the cases of the $Damk{\ddot{o}}hler$ number above approximately 4 - 5, hot spot region was generated in the leading edge of vortex and cold spot region was in the trailing edge. On the contrary, the cases of the $Damk{\ddot{o}}hler$ number below 3 showed the opposite trend.

A series of model tests was carried out to investigate the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) characteristics of a free hanging PVC pipe under forced oscillation conditions. The prescribed displacement with a period and amplitude was forced at the top of the riser. The motion of the riser along its length was measured with underwater cameras in three dimensions. The top-excited responses in the inline direction and vortex-induced vibration in the cross-flow direction were examined in the time and frequency domains. Multi-peak frequencies in the VIV were demonstrated to be strongly dependent upon the Keulegan-Carpenter number, corresponding with the results of Blevin. It was found that the Reynolds numbers (excitation period) was a critical parameter for the dominant VIV characteristics, even under the condition of using the same Keulegan-Carpenter number, under the top-excited condition. In the resonance at the nth natural frequency by the forced-motion induced VIV frequency, the riser responded with a large amplitude and forced frequency, dominantly in the VIV CF direction.

When designing an underwater Piezoelectric Energy Harvester (PEH), Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) is generated throughout the cantilever through a change in curvature, and the generation of VIV increases the vibration displacement of the curved cantilever PEH, which is an important factor in increasing actual power. The material of the curved PEH selected a Polyvinyline Di-Floride (PVDF) piezoelectric film, and the flow velocity is set at 0.1 m/s to 0.50 m/s for 50 mm, 130 mm, and 210 mm with various curvatures. The strain energy change of PEH by VIV was observed. The smaller the radius of curvature, the larger the VIV, and as the flow rate increased, more VIV appeared. Rapid shape transformation due to the small curvature was effective in generating VIV, and strain energy, normalized voltage, average power, etc. To increase the amount of power of the PEH, it is considered that the average power will increase as the number of curved PEHs increases as well as the steep curvature is improved.

Detail flow structure in a large solid rocket motor with two inhibitors has been investigated using 3D Large Eddy Simulation and Proper Orthogonal Decomposition(POD) analysis. Vortex shedding frequencies periodically occurred by inhibitors are coupled with flow acoustics induced by the impinging of vorticity on nozzle head. As a result of 3D analysis, it was observed that the nozzle exit flow causes roll-torques from the vortex being decomposed in unbalanced shape for the impinging of vorticity on the nozzle head.

최근 도입 필요성이 계속하여 높아지고 있는 지하유입시설 유입구로는 유입구 효율과 성능으로 인하여 와류식 유입구가 많이 적용되고 있다. 그 중 나선식 유입구(spiral intake)는 가장 일반적으로 사용되는 형식으로 초기에 활용되었던 원형 유입구(circular intake)를 대신하여 사용되는 형식이다. 형상은 복잡하지만 구조물 내부에서 와류(vortex)를 안정적으로 형성시키기 때문에 많이 사용되고 있다. 나선식 지하방수로 유입구가 사용되는 가장 큰 이유는 유입구 내부에서도 수위가 안정적으로 유지되며, 유입 유량에 따른 수위의 변화가 다른 유입구 형식에 비하여 비교적 안정적으로 예측 가능하기 때문이다. 만약 지하방수로 유입구 내부에서 수위가 안정적으로 유지되지 못하고 도수 현상 등에 의한 수위 상승 현상 등이 발생할 경우 지하유입시설 내부로 안정적으로 유량을 배제하는 것이 어려워지고, 또한 도수 현상이 발생하는 동안 과도한 유량이 유입될 경우 다시 본류로 흐름이 역류할 가능성도 생각할 수 있다. 따라서 유입구 형상에 따른 수위의 변화를 정확히 예측하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서 검토할 종경사형 나선식 유입구(inclined spiral intake)는 일정한 바닥 경사를 도입하여 사류 흐름을 보다 안정적으로 가속시켜 유입구 내부에서의 도수 현상을 방지하는 형식으로 유입구 바닥의 외측 또는 중앙선을 따라서 일정한 경사를 주어 사류 유입 흐름을 안정적으로 유도함으로서 유량 배제 효율을 높인 형태라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 유입구 외측을 기준으로 일정한 경사를 가진 종경사형 나선식 유입구 모형을 이용하여 경사 변화에 따른 방류 효율을 검토하였다.
