In this study, we developed a dispersion analysis program of the gas-generator cycle liquid propellant rocket engine by expanding the mode analysis software(GEMAT). The performance dispersions of an engine that are arisen from the internal dispersion factors of engine's sub-components were formulated and solved to find the effects of each dispersion factor. We were also able to present the calculation method to find the required pressure margin for the compensation of those dispersion to satisfy the required performances of engine. Using this method, we could propose a novel procedure of compensating during the ground firing test which would induce the performance improvement by lessening the pumps discharge pressures or augmenting the combustion chamber pressure.

The error of onboard propellants mass which is mostly occupied in total mass of launch vehicle and The error of residual affect the performance of launch vehicle seriously. In other words, the errors directly cause the error of total impulse. Therefore, optimization of performance of launch vehicle can be achieved by the minimization of the residual. For minimizing the residuals, the active control for completely depleting the propellants and the calculation method using probability for minimizing the residuals have been researched. In this paper, the added fuel was calculated for minimizing the residual and the minimized residual was predicted by the presented method.

본 논문에서는 곡선구간에서도 구동이 가능한 선형 전동기 제어방법을 제안하였다. 곡선구간에 선형 전동기를 적용할 때 전동기의 고정자와 이동자의 기구적인 위치 상호관계에 의해 각 상의 위상관계는 직선구간과 다르게 나타나게 된다. 따라서 직선구간의 제어방법을 그대로 곡선구간에 적용 시 제어성능이 저하되어 전동기의 발생추력은 감소하게 되고, 최악의 경우 곡선구간에서 구동이 불가능한 상태가 된다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 전동기의 역기전력 정보로부터 위상정보를 추출하여 곡선구간의 구동 제어알고리즘에 반영하였고, 제어시스템을 구성하여 곡선구간에서 전동기의 구동성능이 개선됨을 보인다.

Minimization of conventional propulsion device has been studied for altitude control of micro satellite. We studied micro nozzle performance and found higher significant loss for a micro nozzle with smaller nozzle throat diameter. To overcome this loss, we proposed thermal transpiration based micro propulsion system. This new system has no moving parts and can control flow by temperature gradient, and this can be an option for potential new micro propulsion system.

H. Kim, B.K. Lee and C.K. Rheem have been experimentally studied to clarified the mechanism of thrust force generated by sculling motion for the propulsion of Korean small boats. The experimental investigations have been conducted under the bollard condition by installing a scull at the end of a trimming tank of towing tank. The sculling motion produced by the skilful fisherman and the resultant venerated forces have been measured in respect to the Cartesian coordinate fitted to the pivot point of the scull. ("An Experimental Study on the Propulsive Characteristics of Sculls". J. of the Soc. of Naval Arch. of Korea, Vol. 26, No. 3, 1989, pp.13-24) Through these experiments the trajectory of the blade tip and the angular displacement of the blade section have been measured as shown in Fig. 1 and 2 of this paper. And at the same time the resultant hydrodynamic force components are expressed in Fig. 3 and 4. These three dimensional data of sculling motion and generated real time force components are the unique experimental information which could clarify the thrust force generating mechanism of sculling motion. The experimental results have been reanalyzed by focusing the relation between instantaneous attack angle of blade section and the resultants real time force components. Through these investigation it is found out that the conventional imagination that the 7cull motion should be effective in generating lift force must be reconsidered because the attack angle of scull blade are too great to free from stall phenomena during the sculling operation.

A Propulsion System of the CRW(Canard Rotor Wing) type UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) was composed of the turbojet engine to generate the propulsive exhaust gas, and the duct system including main and rotary ducts, the nozzle subsystem including main and tip jet nozzle for three flight modes such as lift/landing mode, low speed transition flight mode and high speed forward flight mode. Transient simulation performance utilized the ICV (Inter-component volume) method and simulated using the SIMULINK. Transient performance analysis was performed on 3 cases. Fuel flow schedules to accelerate from Idle to maximum rotational speed were divided into the step increase of the most severe case and ramp increase cases to avoid the overshoot of turbine inlet temperature, and variations of thrust and the turbine inlet temperature were investigated in some transient analysis cases.

The six-components force measurements systems for rocket motors are used to measure multi components force generated by TVC(Thrust Vector Control) motors. This paper suggested the modeling scheme which is used in preliminary design and test analysis procedure and which can be applied to the existing other test stand in operation. The model whose parameters are determined by least square method makes the design engineer build the test stand to satisfy all kinds of requirements such as accuracy, operating condition and structural stability without tradeoff among the requirements. The experimental results shows that the proposed model has better accurate performances than those of other existing model.

The vibration and noise reduction issue is very important in helicopter since the thrust and flight control force of helicopter are generated by rotating drive system. In past, there was a passive method to reduce vibration and noise to focus on specified frequency. Now, there are various active method to reduce vibration and noise due to technology development. This paper describes the worldwide technology trend of vibration and noise active control in helicopter. At introduction, generalmethod of vibration and noise reduction.

우주항공 산업에 대한 관심 증가에 따라 지상에서 많은 연소시험을 시행하고 있으나, 소음 발생문제에 부딪혀 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 초보적 단계이기는 하나, 액체로켓 엔진의 추력 손실을 최소화시키고 최대한 제트 소음을 크게 줄일 수 있는 소음기를 연구, 개발하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 제트소음에 대한 기초연구를 수행하여 물분사형 소음기를 설계 및 제작하였고, 물분사량과 소음기의 기하학적형상이 소음 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 본 실험범위에서 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 동일한 물 분사량 조건에서, 소음기 길이가 노즐출구 직경의 10배 모델 보다 30배 모델이 9dbl 정도 감음효과를 보였다. 2. 불 분사량이 증가함에 따라 소음레벨은 감소하였고, 30배 모델의 경우 불분사량이 배기가스의 10-12배 조건에서는 소음레벨을 91dbl까지 줄일 수 있었다. 3. 상기조건(소음레벨 91dbl)에 확장관을 부착함으로써, 소음레벨을 약 86dbl까지 줄일 수 있었다. 4. 본 형태의 물분사방식을 채택할 경우 고온배기가스로 인한 소음기의 파손을 방지하기 위해서 반드시 막냉각장치의 설치가 요구된다.

Linear pulse rootor (LPM) be suitable a field where smooth linear rootion of high precision is required, because it's structured with minute teeth pitch in airgap of between and stator and roover(forcer). Force and position of LPM are effected sensitively by the teeth pitch, air gap, permanent magnet and excitation current. So, LPM is much important to analyze the force characteristics. llis paper was awlied to perrreance roothed for force calculation at airgap. The airgap of LPM is maintained from the pressure generated by an air-bearing. Simplified airflow and permeance methods will be used to calculate the air gap under static conditions. Therefore, the maximum available force is then derived using the coenergy method with variable air gap, also normal force and linear thrust was acquired from variable minute displacement 1[mm]. 1[mm].
