A design plan was proposed for determining combustor configuration of regenerative- cooled liquid rocket engine in the process of preliminary design. Rocket performance and regenerative cooling results were calculated using the properties of combustion gas estimated in CEA. For required thrust, chamber pressure, atmosphere pressure and propellant mixture ratio the mass flow rate of propellants and combustor performance were predicted using one-dimensional and experimental equations. Finally, determinable plan for contour of combustor were presented through Rao nozzle design method.

본 연구에서는 윤활유막의 접촉압력 거동문제를 다른 각도에서 유한요소기법으로 해석하고자 한다. 즉, 혼합기가 폭발하게 되면 피스톤과 실린더 사이의 윤활유막이 순간적으로 초고압을 받아서 윤활유막은 밀폐된 공간에서 마치 폴리머처럼 거동할 것이라고 가정할 수 있다. 이와 같은 현상은 극히 짧은 시간에 국부적으로 일어날 것으로 예상되며, 이러한 작동조건에서 피스톤 링의 접촉면 형상에 따른 피스톤 압축링-윤활유막 사이의 접촉압력 거동문제를 미시적일 측면에서 유한요소기법으로 피스톤의 동적문제를 해석하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 컴퓨터 상에 제어기와 구동부 등으로 구성된 가상제조시스템(Virtual Manufacturing System)을 구축하고 시뮬레이션하는 방법론을 다룬다. 특히 설비들간의 이동시 발생할 수 있는 3차원 공간상의 충돌을 검출하는 이산사건 및 연속상태 혼합 시뮬레이션 방법론을 소개한다. 시뮬레이션 모델은 DEVS(discrete event system specification) 형식론(formalsim)에 기초한 형상기구학 정보를 갖는 이른바 GKDEVS(Geometrical Kinematic DEVS)을 이용하였고, 시뮬레이션 방법론은 DEVS의 추상화 시뮬레이션(abstract simulation)방법을 확장하였다.

The flow characteristics in a stirred tank are very useful in a wide variety of industrial applications. Generally, the flow pattern, power consumption and mixing time in stirred vessels depend not only on the design of the impeller, but also on the tanks' geometry and internal structure. In this study, the analysis of an unstable and unsteady complicated flow characteristics generated by the interaction between the baffle shape and impeller were performed using the ANSYS FLUENT LES Turbulence Model. The study compared the predictions of CFD with the interaction between two types of rotating impellers (axial and radial flows) and the shapes of three baffles. The results of the comparison verified that the design model showed a relatively efficient trend in the mixing flow fields and characteristics around the impeller and baffles during agitation.

Numerical simulations of high temperature catalytic combustion have been performed for the application to a gas turbine combustor. Dependences of inlet temperature and pressure on the distributions of temperature and species concentrations were investigated using plug flow model with detailed homogeneous and heterogeneous chemistries of methane-air mixtures. Honeycomb typecombustor deposited with Pt catalyst of 100mm in length and 26mm in diameter is used. The results show that rapid increase of temperature profile occurs earlier with the increase of inlet temperature and the decrease of inlet pressure. The condition which catalytic combustion is stabilized exists at certain range of inlet temperature and pressure. The state of catalytic combustion is also confirmed by the distributions of species concentration.

액체 램제트 연소기는 흡입공기와 분무, 혼합 그리고 이에 따른 연소 등 일련의 과정에 따라 다수의 복잡한 현상들이 상호 밀접하게 관련되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 액체 램제트 연소기내의 유동특성을 파악하기 위해서 2차원 및 3차원 연소기 형상에 대해서 수치적 실험을 수행하였으며, 격자구성은 연소기에 공기를 공급하고 연료를 분무하는 공기 유입관 영역과 연소실 영역, 그리고 출구 대기 영역으로 나누어 독자적으로 격자를 생성시켰다. 2차원과 3차원 유동해석을 비교하였고 분무모델의 적용에 따른 연소특성 및 분사위치에 따른 연소특성을 비교하였다. 유동해석 결과 2차원과 3차원의 유동특성은 달랐으며, 분무모델을 적용해야 정확한 연소 유동 현상을 예측할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 유입관의 안쪽에 연료의 분사위치를 준 경우가 연소의 안정화에 필요한 재순환영역으로의 연료의 혼합이 잘 되어 유입관 바깥쪽에 연료를 분사시키는 것보다 좋은 분사위치임을 알 수 있었다.

A 3D FEM (Finite Element Method) based Helmholtz solver has been commonly used to characterize fundamental acoustic behavior and investigate dynamic instability features in many combustion systems. In this approach, a geometrical simplification of the target system has been generally made in order to reduce computational time and cost because a real combustor and fuel nozzle have a very complicated flow passage. The feasibility of these simplifications is quantitatively investigated in a small aero gas turbine nozzle in term of acoustic characteristics. It is found that the simplification in a nozzle geometry during the 3D FEM analysis process has no great influence on the acoustic modeling results, while the calculation complexity can be improved for a similar modeling accuracy.

In this paper, the combustion improvement effects of alcohol-diesel oil blend fuel were investigated in a visualization engine. As a result of experiment, it was found out that the combustion chamber of deep dish type and re-entrant type at the same operation condition. However, when the con-tent of alcohol exceeded 10% of total fuel delivery, the combustion of alcohol-diesel oil blend fuel was worse than that of diesel oil. The maximum blend quantity of ethanol which is not ignited in the re-entrant type combustion chamber was estimated at approximately 40% of total fuel delivery. So, it is necessary to blend appropriate quantity of a volatility fuel such as alcohol in order to improve combustion.

This paper discusses experimental data for the assessment of flow discharging characteristics of double swirl coaxial injectors operating at fuel-rich conditions. Combustion tests employing liquid oxygen and kerosene (Jet A-1) were conducted and a discharge coefficient was utilized for defining flow characteristics. A mass flow rate, a pressure, and a temperature were measured to estimate discharge coefficients. Fuel injectors revealed a fixed value of a discharge coefficient regardless of matched LOx injector design, chamber pressure, and mixture ratio. However, oxidizer injectors showed varying discharging coefficients depending on chamber pressure and mixture ratio. Flame structure variations seem to affect flow discharging characteristics of the oxidizer side.

Numerical design optimization techniques are implemented for the improvement of the ram accelerator performance. The design object is to find the minimum ram tube length required to accelerate projectile from initial velocity $V_o$ to target velocity $V_e$. The premixture is composed of $H_2$, $O_2$, $N_2$ and the mole numbers of these species are selected as design variables. The objective function and the constraints are linearized during the optimization process and gradient-based Simplex method and SLP(Sequential Linear Programming) have been employed. With the assumption of two dimensional inviscid flow for internal flow field, the analyses of the nonequilibrium chemical reactions for 8 steps 7 species have been performed. To determined the tube length, ram tube internal flow field is assumed to be in a quasi-steady state and the flow velocity is divided into several subregions with equal interval. Hence the thrust coefficients and accelerations for corresponding subregions are obtained and integrated for the whole velocity region. With the proposed design optimization techniques, the total ram tube length had been reduced 19% within 7 design iterations. This optimization procedure can be directly applied to the multi-stage, multi-premixture ram accelerator design optimization problems.
