The efficiency of railway track cleaning vehicle for eliminating fine particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) in a subway tunnel depends strongly on the structure of the air blowing and suction system installed under the train. To increase the efficiency of underbody suction system, this paper proposes a novel method to use the Coanda effect for the air blower and dust suction module. In particular, through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis, the flow control device induced by the Coanda effect enables an increase in the overall flow velocity and to stabilize the flow distribution of the suction module at a control angle of $90^{\circ}$. In addition, the flow velocity drop at the edge of the air knife-type blower can be improved by placing small inserts at the edge of the blower. Those 4 modular designs of the dust suction system can help remove the dust accumulated on the track and tunnel by optimizing the blowing and suction flows.

A study is conducted to improve the suction performance on suction devices which are used to remove polluted air generated by welding or machining process in a spacious working place of industry. Air-curtain is applied around the inlet of suction duct to interrupt the inflow of fresh air from the downstream region where is located opposite to the polluted air source. Two different air-curtain devices, such as a $45^{\circ}$ backward and a fully backward, are adopted. Suction region is experimentally investigated by measuring the suction velocities using a hot-wire anemometer. Contours of the suction velocity are compared with the computed results. The suction condition is selected to 110,000 Reynolds number which is widely used on typical suction devices, and a width of blowing passage for creating the air-curtain is chosen to 9.38% of the suction duct diameter. The experimental results show that the suction performance obtained with the $45^{\circ}$ backward air-curtain was better than that obtained with the fully backward air-curtain. On the suction duct using the $45^{\circ}$ backward air-curtain, the suction region estimated on basis of the 0.4m/sec is improved by 66% at the same input power.

Many countries are paying efforts to the research and development of water-breathing ramjet propulsion for submersible vehicle with the super-cavitation which makes traveling at high speed in underwater possible. In this study, a conceptual design of an underwater vehicle with water-breathing ramjet was carried out. Mission profiles and operating conditions are determined by examining the operation environment. Drag is estimated based on the theories of super-cavitation and fluid mechanics. The sizing and performance analysis of the components were performed using thrust required, thrust and specific impulse of designed engine were verified.

In this study, the performance and structure of a parallel ejector comprised of multiple single ejectors were confirmed through numerical analysis. The same design variables (mass suction ratio, compression ratio, and expansion ratio) relevant to the performance of a single ejector were considered in the design of the parallel ejector. Analytical results showed that there was no significant difference in the performance of either system related to the operating mass suction ratio; however, the systemsize was significantly reduced. In addition, it was confirmed that when ejectors of the same performance capacity are arranged in parallel, the combined mass suction ratio is lower than that of the single ejector, allowing a lower pressure to be realized. The results of the analysis indicated that the parallel ejector's performance is not significantly different from that of any single ejector, but confirmed that the parallel ejector can offer a configurationdependent advantage in size and operation.

램제트 추진기관은 압축과정을 별도의 부품 없이 형상에 의해서 감속하여 연소 압력비를 얻는다. 따라서 구동 마하수와 형상에 의해 흡입과정의 압축 효율이 결정된다. 설계점은 충분한 유량을 확보 할 수 있는 유량과 충격파 각을 조절하여 전압력 손실을 줄이도록 고려되어야 한다. 또한 연소가 일어나면 연소실 압력이 배압으로 작용하고 비행시에 받음각은 변하므로 이에 따른 성능 분석도 고려 되어야 할 사항이다. 본 연구는 국내에서 실험한 형상에 대해 수치계산을 수행하여 코드의 검증과 아울러 램제트 유동장의 수치적 시뮬레이션도 설계단계에서 하나의 도구로 이용할 수 있음을 보여준다. 실험에서는 배압 조건을 얻기 위해 유동 블록키지를 유로 내에 두어 상응하는 배압을 얻었지만 본 계산에서는 압력 경계조건을 직접 사용하였다. 유동이 비정상 특성을 가지므로 시간 정확도를 이차로 가지도록 이중시간 전진법을 사용하였다. 사용한 압력비는 충격파가 카울 끝에 닿는 임계상태에 가까운 12, 13, 14에 대해 계산을 수행하였고 부스터모드로 흡입구 끝이 막혀 있다가 램제트 모드로 바뀌어 연소실 압력이 위의 압력비라고 가정할 때의 비정상 천이 과정을 계산해 보았다. 본 계산은 흡입구 부분만을 떼어놓고 적절한 가정 하에 수행되었지만 연소실 내부도 비정상 특성을 가지므로 흡입구와 연소실을 동시에 같이 계산해야한다. 추후에 전체적인 계산을 진행하기 위한 전 단계로 흡입구 계산만을 수행하여 실험과 잘 일치하는 계산 결과를 얻었고 전체 계산을 위한 연구는 진행 중에 있다.

It is definitely important to measure thrust during ground test when developing air-breathing engine, and in case of air-breathing engine, gross thrust should be calculated considering not only the measured thrust but also the force induced by the air flow of engine intake. Also, side thrust like yaw and pitch should be measured and analyzed using multi-component thrust measurement system. Engine performance was accurately evaluated by calculating the gross thrust of air breathing engine precisely which is analyzed from below serial procedure: labyrinth seal isolation, 1-axis gross thrust calculation, develop multi-component thrust measurement system, and side thrust analysis.

이덕터는 구동부를 통해 공급되는 작동유체가 노즐을 통과하면서 고속으로 분출됨으로써 벤츄리 효과에 의해 노즐 출구 주위에 부압이 형성됨에 따라 흡입부를 통해 유체가 흡입된다. 이덕터의 주요 설계인자는 노즐의 직경과 스로트의 직경 및 직관부 길이 그리고 노즐과 직관부 시작점까지의 거리이다. 이 연구에서는 선박용 인라인 이덕터에 대한 기초연구로서 흡입 메카니즘을 체계적으로 해석할 목적으로 주요 설계인자를 이론적으로 고찰하고 설계인자의 변화에 따른 성능실험 가능하도록 이중원관의 형태로 모델링하였다.
