In this paper, we represent an improved algorithm of performance evaluation for communication protocol. It is an algorithm that analyzes Extended Timed Perti Net models including time which have been successfully used to model and evaluate the performance of distributed system. While Timed Petri Nets generally limted to free-choice and safe nets, our algorithm permits the construnction of elegant models of restricted concurrent processing. Furthermore, to reduce the state space size of Timed Reachability Graph, we improve the algorithm by using Maximum Firing Rule and sets of simultaneously firing transitions. Procedures for constructing of Timed Reachability Graphs and analyzing are presented, and we demonstrate the usefulness of this algorithm by applying it to the analysis of the communication protocol.

A liquid rocket engine goes through many tests to prove its performance before liftoff. It means the tests for setting ignition and start-up conditions or a test on design condition, which verifies the design performance. However, the development process requires verification of performance under off-design conditions through tests involving different operating conditions, which affects the duration of engine development. The off-design performance test is performed by altering the conditions of the propellant supplied to the engine in conjunction with the engine performance test that varies the opening of the control valves in the engine. This paper is based on the results of the engine tests performed at the KSLV-II engine test facilities in the Naro Space Center and describes the operations of the test facility for off-design condition test that changes the inlet conditions of the turbo-pump due to changes in the pressure and temperature of the propellant supplied to the test engines.

In the international natural gas market, natural gas has markedly low calories. The domestic calories standard of natural gas was changed and the performance and efficiency of many industrial machines using natural gas were affected because of low caloric natural gas. Therefore, in this study, a dual fuel engine fueled with natural gas and diesel was tested to examine the effects of the CNG substitution rate on the combustion characteristics, such as thermal efficiency, COVimep and heat release rate. The CNG substitution rate was defined as the ratio of CNG instead of diesel, which was calculated as the total energy. The conditions of the tested engine were fixed $1800rpm/500N{\cdot}m$. In addition, diesel fuel was injected at $16^{\circ}CA$ BTDC and the fuel pressure was fixed at 85 MPa; the lower heating value of CNG was $10,400kcal/Nm^3$. The results of the engine test showed that the amount of diesel fuel was changed according to the CNG substitution rate. Therefore, when the substitution rate was increased, the amount of diesel fuel was decreased, which affected the energy for ignition. In addition, the ignition delay duration was increased, which affected the thermal efficiency and torque. On the other hand, the COVimep was less than 5% and a stable combustion state of the engine was shown.

In this paper, we have implemented the performance evaluation system of the unified fuel heater for CRDI diesel engine. If the diesel engine be cold by low temperature in winter, then that makes the waxing materials like a paraffin and is the source of poor engine starting. The unified fuel heater is the barrow meter that estimate the start performance of diesel engine, and be tested by test chamber. The chamber perform the normal temperature, an extremely low temperature, an operating performance in an extremely high temperature, the resistance operation delay time and current operation delay time in setting up test resistance, the bimetal delay time test in temperature variation, the current and resistor test of the composited heater, a heating operation test.

The study was performed to understand combustion characteristics of the slinger combustor. Liquid fuel is discharged radially outwards through injection holes drilled in the high speed rotating shaft. The spray test was peformed to verify atomizing characteristics with variation of fuel nozzle rotational speed by using PDPA system. SMD was measured at different RPM and values are 70$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 5,000RPM rpm, 60$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 10,000RPM and 40$\mu\textrm{m}$ at 20,000RPM. In the results, we found out that SMD is grown smaller with increasing rotational speed. In KARI combustion test facility, Ignition and combustion tests were performed by using combustor test rig. In the test results, ignition and combustion efficiency were improved according to increasing rotational speed. The measured radial temperature distribution at the combustor exit shows stable and fairly good distribution.

The ground tests of the dual pulse solid rocket motors(SRM) were performed to prove the performance of the developed dual pulse solid rocket motors. To achieve dual pulse, pulse seperation device(PSD) and independent ignition systems were installed between the 1st pulse motor and the 2nd pulse motor. The three major development goals are as follow. First, the total impulse of the dual pulse SRM must be over 90% of the single SRM which has same envelopment and weight. Second, the ignition of the 2nd pulse motor can be started at any time between 0 and 60 seconds after termination of the 1st pulse motor. Last, the rupture disk of PSD must not be broken at the 1st pulse pressure, but be broken at below 30% of the 2nd pulse operating pressure. The results of the ground tests satisfied the development goals.

Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) has been considered as a future propulsion system for broad range of operation and higher thermal efficiency. Various subsystem technologies have been studied for more than decade to improve the performance of the potential system. New valve systems has been developed for the stable operation at high frequency including inflow-driven valve, rotary valve and valveless system. To foster the detonation initiation with a little ignition energy, plasma ignition method and DDT (deflagration to detonation transition) acceleration method such as swept ramp mechanism have been studied. Fluidic nozzle system and other nozzle system are the ongoing research topics to maximize the propulsion performance of the PDE. Present paper introduces the state of the art of PDE subsystem technologies developed in recent years.

In this study, a spark ignition engine operated with the DME blended LPG fuel was investigated experimentally. Performance, emissions characteristics including hydrocarbon, CO, NOx, and combustion stability of an SI engine fuelled with DME blended LPG fuel were examined at $1200{\sim}5200\;rpm$. Results showed that stable engine operation was possible for a wide range of engine loads within 20% mass content of DME fuel. Also, engine output power within 10% mass content of DME fuel was comparable to that of pure LPG fuel operation. However, engine output power was decreased and break specific fuel consumption (BSFC) was severely increased with the amount of blended fuel as the energy content of DME was much lower than that of LPG. DME blended LPG fuel is expected to be potential for enlarging DME market.

기관의 성능에 영향을 주는 인자로서는 외적인자(outside factor), 작동인자(operating factor) 및 설계인자(design factor)의 3가지로 나눌 수 있다. 작동인자로서는 기관회전수, 공기연료비, 점화 시기 또는 분사시기 등이면 설계인자로서는 행정체적, 압축비, 흡배기계통의 구조 및 치수, 냉각 방식 등으로 기관에 따라 고유한 값을 가지는 인자이다. 그러나 외적인자인 대기조건 즉 대기 압력, 대기온도 및 대기습도는 계절, 지역 및 기상조건에 따라 달라지므로 이것에 따라 기관이 흡입하는 공기의 압력, 온도 및 습도는 변화하게 된다. 그러므로 대기조건의 변화에 따라서는 기관작동인자인 공기연료비에도 영향을 미치게 할 것이고 또한 연소상태의 변화로 유효압축비 에도 영향을 미치게 할 것이므로 대기상태의 변화는 곧 바로 기관 출력의 변화를 초래하게 될 것이다. 그러므로 같은 운전조건에서의 기관출력도 대기상태의 변화에 따라 변화하게 되므로 임의의 대기 상태에서 측정한 기관출력을 표준대기상태의 기관출력으로 환산해서 평가할 필요가 생긴다. 이것을 일반으로 출력수정(output correction)이라 하고 있으며 각 나라마다 공업규격 또는 기타규격으로 출력정식을 제정하고 있다. 예를 들면 K.S.B 9102, SAE J816B, B.S. 765, DIN 70020, JIS B 8013등이다. 이들 출력수정식들은 많은 문제점을 가지고 있으므로 종래의 출 력수정식으로 출력수정을 하여도 정확하게 맞지 않은 경우가 많다. 출력수정에 관한 문제는 수 10년전부터 많은 연구자에 의하여 연구되고 거론되어 왔으나 과거의 연구자들이 제안하고 거론 되어 왔으나 과거의 연구자들이 제안하고 있는 출력수정식, 또는 규격으로 정하고 있는 출력수 정방법은 어느 것이나 실용상 만족스러운 것이 아직 없다. 그러므로 본 자료는 스파아크 점화 기관의 흡기습도에 관한 출력수정의 문제를 실험적으로 수행한 실험적 출력수정방법에 의한 것과 종래의 출력수정방법에 의한 것과를 비교 검토하였다.

In order to cope with the problems that may occur when the natural gas used in Korea becomes low in calories, the problems that may have to the domestic industrial gas equipment must be identified in advance, and based on this, countermeasures for efficient use of energy must be preceded. In this study, in order to solve the problem of deterioration of engine output performance and efficiency due to the introduction of low calorific gas when using a lean-burning natural gas engine that complies with the EURO-6 regulation, specific control plans and results based on the experiment are intended to be presented. In order to identify the improvement effect by the control variable represented by the ignition timing under the full load condition at the engine speed of 1,400 rpm and 550 Nm, 2,100 rpm, which is the engine speed at the rated operation condition, the thermal efficiency and exhaust gas characteristics were identified and optimized by changing the ignition timing for each gas fuel. In the case of pure methane, which shows the lowest value based on the torque under the full load condition, if the ignition timing is advanced by about 2 CAD from the reference ignition timing, the torque can be compensated without a large increase in NOx emission.
