The acoustic performance of reactive type single expansion chamber can be calculated theoretically by plane wave theory. But higher order modes should be considered to widen the frequency range. Munjal has suggested the method for analyzing the acoustic properties of simple expansion chamber with taking into consideration of higher order mode of inlet/outlet. But his method cannot predict the acoustic properties exactly when the dimensions of inlet/outlet and expansion chamber have not integer multiples. In this paper the new method was suggested to overcome the shortcomings of Munjal's method The predictions by this method were also compared with those by the finite element method.

The acoustic performance of reactive type single expansion chamber can be calculated theoretically by plane wave theory. But higher order model should be considered to widen the frequency range. Mode matching method has been developed to consider higher order modes, but very complicated algebra should be used. Munjal suggested a numerical collocation method, which can overcome the shortcomings of mode matching method, using the compatibility conditions for acoustic pressure and particle velocity at the junctions of area discontinuities. But the restriction of Munjal's method is that the ratio between the area of inlet(or outlet) pipe and that of chamber must be natural number. In this paper, the new method was suggested to overcome the shortcomings of Munjal's method. The predictions by this method was also compared with those by the finite element method and Munjal's method in order to demonstrate the accuracy of the modified method presented here.

Lean premixed combustion was successful in meeting current NOx emission regulations. However, these often leads to combustion instability. This phenomena results from the feedback relationship between heat release perturbations and acoustic pressure oscillations in the combustor. Researches on the combustion instability in an annular combustor have recently received great attention due to the enhanced NOx requirement in aero-engines. In this study, the thermoacoustic network model has been developed in order to calculate the acoustics for longitudinal as well as circumferential modes in the annular combustor. The combustion model in the network model is calculated by flame transfer function(FTF). Numerical and analytical results are compared to an measurement data.

Unsteady numerical analysis of an entire supersonic propulsion system from intake to nozzle was performed to study dynamic interaction between terminal shock in the intake and flame in the combustor. Both acceleration and cruise flight-modes were considered. Acoustic mode of the entire engine for both flight-modes were investigated by detail analysis of pressure fluctuation at each location of engine.

In this paper, derivation of the STL (Sound Transmission Loss) of the double plates installed in an impedance tube is discussed using an analytic method, where an air cavity exists between the plates. Vibration of the plates and sound pressure field inside the tube are expressed in terms of infinite series of modal functions. Under the plane wave assumption, it is shown that consideration of the first few modes yields sufficiently accurate results, and locations of peaks and dips are investigated. It is determined that the peak frequencies of the double plates coincide with those of each single plate. When the two plates are identical, the STL of the double plates as well as that of the single plate become zero at the natural frequencies of the single plate. The location and amplitude of the dips are investigated using an approximation solution when the cavity depth is very small.

A simple Crocco's $n-{\tau}$ time delay model and linear analysis of fluid flow coupled with acoustics are combined to investigate the high frequency combustion instability in the combustion chamber of LOX/hydrocarbon engines. The partial differential equation of the velocity potential is separated into ordinary differential equations, and eigenvalues that correspond to tangential resonance modes in the cylindrical chamber are determined. A general solution is obtained by solving the differential equation in the axial direction, and boundary conditions at the injector face and nozzle entrance are applied in order to calculate the chamber admittance. Frequency analysis of the transfer function is used to evaluate the stability of system. Stability margin is determined from the system gain and phase angle for the desired frequency range of 1T mode. The chamber model with variable baffle length and configurations are also considered in order to enhance the 1T mode stability of the combustion chamber.

Combustion instability occurred in the combustion test of solid rocket motor with large aspect ration Length/Diameter (L/D) and cylinder-slot grain. As a result of spectral analysis of the pressure perturbation, it was confirmed that the central axis longitudinal frequency was dominant, so that the length of the cylinder part was increased to eliminate the coincidence with acoustic node. In addition, acoustic modal analysis and flow analysis were performed to analyze the cause of instability by unsteady flow structure in solid rocket motors. It was confirmed that the combustion instability is reduced by quantitative comparison of the amplitude and frequencies of the pressure inside the combustion chamber using the grain shape before and after the design change. Finally, a combustion test was performed to verify that the combustion instability was resolved as in the flow analysis.

Spectral analysis of transient elastic waves were carried out in order to identify the propagation modes in glass and unidirectional carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) plates. Pencil leads were broken on the surface of plates to generate elastic waves, and two broad band transducers of 6.35 mm in diameter and 10 MHz center frequency were placed at the linear location from the source. The frequency spectra of detected signals showed that the wave propagation in the plates obeyed the Lamb wave dispersion relation. The transient signals were the fast propagating modes around maximum group velocity of the lowest and first order symmetric $modes(S_{0} and S_{1}),$ and first order antisymmetric $mode(A_{1})$. The transient signals were not severely distorted due to relatively small dispersion of those modes around the maximum group velocity. The fastest propagating mode in the plates was shown to be $S_{0}$ mode less the than cut-off frequency of $A_{1}$ mode.

A 3V CMOS continuous-time fully-balanced integrator for low-voltage analog-digital mixed-mode signal processing is designed in this paper. The basic architecture of the designed fully-balanced integrator is complementary circuit which is composed of NMOS and PMOS transistor. And this complementary circuit can extend transconductance of an integrator. So. the unity gain frequency, pole and zero of integrator are increased by the extended transconductance. The SPICE simulation and small signal analysis results show that the UGF, pole and zero of the integrator is increased larger than those of the compared integrtors. The three-pole active low-pass filter is designed as a application circuit of the fully-balanced integrator, using 0.83V CMOS processing parameter.

The radiation property of a Tonpilz transducer is influenced by the structural variables of the transducer. In this study, with respect to a single mode Tonpilz transducer, the radiation patterns were calculated for different head mass geometries of the same effective radiation area. The shapes of the head mass analyzed were the most popular circular, regular triangular, square, regular hexagonal and regular octagonal types, and radiation pattern equations were derived for each of the head mass shapes. Based on the derived equations, radiation patterns in accordance with the shape and size of the head mass were calculated and the results were compared with each other. Validity of the calculation results were confirmed by means of finite element analysis.
