In the fuel of the solid fuel ramjet there are metal particles in order to improve the Isp like as solid rocket propellants. Because of the short combustion residence time these metallized fuels have low combustion efficiencies. Therefore it is necessary to increase the combustion efficiency and the inlet air temperature does an important role to this. The main factors to affect the inlet air temperature is the free stream temperature and the flight Mach number. Also the flow velocity in the combustor does an important role, therefore entire range of the air flow; from the stagnation to the sonic velocity in the ramjet combustor is considered.

For the operation of the scramjet engine in the wide flight range, the design of the inlet must show stable performance in various flight conditions. In this study, the design methods of a 2D fixed inlet for stable performance in wide flight ranges of Mach number 4 to 6 and angle -6° to 6°, is performed. After proposing the design method and design focus, performance prediction and analysis were performed by various initial compression angles and design Mach numbers, which are essential design factors in total pressure recovery and inlet capture area ratio in the wide flight range. Based on the analysis results, we present the selection criteria for the two main design elements to represent stable performance in the wide flight range.

Design program was developed to determine the external shape of the supersonic axisymmetric inlet by combining conical flow solver and approximation technique of conical shock with gradient-based optimization algorithm. Inlet designs were carried out under various operation conditions through optimization with respectively two object functions which consist of pressure recovery and cowl drag and with constraints about shock position, cowl shape, and minimum throat area. New object function consisting of pressure recovery and drag of the external cowl was proposed and the optimized shapes from new object function were compared to the ones from the old object function which maximize only the pressure recovery. Through computations of inviscid and turbulent flow, was tested performance of the design program and performance estimated in design program agreed well with computation results for inlets designed under various flight conditions.

Experimental study has been a general way to evaluate inlet and exhaust duct performances, but this is not only costly but also time consuming. Computational simulation is hence replacing experimental study and consequently time and cost saving. This paper therefore aims to investigate typical component performance of the intake and exhaust ducts using 3D representation. In this study a specific inlet and exhaust was modeled and analyzed to estimate its losses and flow field using computational fluid dynamic program with flow visualization capabilities. A process that requires geometry data to be modeled. That allowed for possibility of design trade off in designing phase. Installed performance of a specific turbo shaft engine was finally evaluated with the estimated inlet, exhaust and other accessories losses.

스크류 압축기는 진동이 적고, 소형이면서 고효율을 유지하기가 용이하다는 특징을 가지고 있으며, 원통형 밀패용기 내에 암,수로터가 서로 반대 방향으로 맞물려 회전하면서, 로터홈과 케이싱 사이에 생기는 공간의 용적이 로터회전에 의해서 가스를 흡입, 압축, 배출하는 합축기 이다. 본 연구는 로터의 치형 함수의 기하학적성질 및 제한사항을 고려하여, 대칭 치형을 치수의 조합과, 원, 점, 직선, 타원을 사용하여 비대칭 치형을 설계하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 설계된 치형과 기존의 치형을 치형 형상의 변화에 따른 특성값 (실라인길이, 누설삼각형, 용적곡선, 흡입 및 토출 홈면적)의 변화에 대하여 연구함으로서 성능검토를 시도하였다.

초음속 비행체 및 극음속 성층권 비행체용 추진기관으로의 사용이 검토되고 있는 차세대 추진기관들을 산화제 공급방식에 따라 공기흡입 엔진, 로켓 엔진 및 복합사이클 엔진으로 분류하여 엔진의 구성방식 및 추진특성들을 기술하였다. 공기흡입 엔진은 저고도에서의 성능이 우수하고 재사용이 가능 하지만 공기 밀도가 낮은 고 고도 영역에서의 성능이 좋지 않으며 로켓 엔진은 넓은 고도영역에서 사용이 가능한 반면 낮은 비추력 및 고비용 발사체계 등과 같은 단점들을 가지고 있다.(중략)

The purpose of this study is to suggest the reasonable model of the caliber in suction nozzle, the pressure of suction nozzle, and the flow rate about foam system of line proportioner type using in the pumpcar. To test this, the experimental study was accomplished on the ground of the standards for the Performance Certification and Product Inspection of Foam Fire-extinguishing Chemical Mixing Machine. Aqueous Film Forming Foam in 3% and pipe type air foam nozzle with line proportioner FE 40 type were used. Test result showed that the pressure of suction nozzle within the limits between 0.25 MPa and 0.35 MPa was appropriate when the caliber in suction nozzle is 4 mm. Also, the pressure of suction nozzle within the limits between 0.45 MPa and 0.60 MPa was appropriate in the higher pressure than 4 mm when the caliber in suction nozzle is 5 mm.

Three Lox pumps and one fuel pump are manufactured for turbopump real-propellent tests and water tests of the pumps are performed in order to estimate the performance characteristics of the pumps. According to the test results, the test region(flow ratio, cavitation number) of the pumps at the water tests cover the operating region at the real-propellent tests and also all the pumps satisfy the design requirement. The head of the Lox pumps shows a 2% difference among them due to the internal geometry, but the efficiency and overall cavitation performance are almost same. It is found that the fuel pump has a similar head and efficiency compared with the previous model of the same internal geometry, while it has a little inferior cavitation performance.

액체렘제트 엔진에서는 고온·고속의 공기가 공기흡입구로 유입되기 때문에 고성능 램제트 연소기의 설계를 위하여 실제 비행조건을 모사할 수 있는 고온 고속의 공기 발샐장치가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수소연소에 의해 Vitiated Air를 발생시키도록 설계된 Vitiated Air Heater(VAH)를 제작하였으며, VAH의 성능평가를 통하여 80∼120m/s 와 400∼800K 범위에서 손쉽게 속도와 온도의 조절이 가능하고 균일한 속도 및 온도분포로 대기공기와 같은 Vitiated Air를 얻을 수 있었다. 그리고 VAH을 연결하여 Dump형 연소기의 특성을 실험하였다. 액체 램제트 엔진에 있어서 공기흡입구가 하나인 Dump형 연소기에 주요변수로서 흡입공기의 온도와 공연비를 변화시키면서 연소기내의 화염형상을 관찰하고, 온도분포를 계측하였으며 Injection 위치에 따른 화염현상을 관찰하였다. 각 경우의 연소효율을 계산하여 실험범위에서의 최적 연소조건을 제시하였다.
