This paper deals with attitude controller design and integrated performance tests on the nitrogen gas reaction control system of KSLV-I. Some major factors which are necessarily required in designing a stabilizing controller of reaction control system are investigated, and the corresponding equations are given. Experimental configurations and test conditions for system level integrated performance tests of the KSLV-I nitrogen gas reaction control system are summarized. It is shown that, based on the experimental data, operational performances of nitrogen gas reaction control system can be analyzed in terms of gas consumption, thrusting force, time delay, and specific impulse. It is also shown that a conformance of the controller to flight can be evaluated. Finally the onboard controller of KSLV-I reaction control system is shown to perform normally with enough stability margin via the first flight test result.

This study aims to empirically investigate population stereotype of burner-control linkage of four-stove gas range for Koreans. Background: The previous studies' results for gas range stereotypes were different depending upon methods adopted, i.e., whether using questionnaires, computer simulation or physical models. It is known that the physical model experiment should not be methodologically replaced by the computer simulation or paper-and-pencil tests. Stereotype of gas range for Koreans was surveyed based on questionnaires, but has not been dealt with by using physical models. Method: An experiment was conducted to investigate stereotype of four-burner gas range, in which 32 subjects participated and a real gas range available in the market was bought and used. Four types of burner-control linkage were used as independent variable, and reaction time as dependent variable. Results: ANOVA revealed that four types of burner-control linkage and subjects' gender were not significant on reaction time. Duncan's multiple range test showed that reaction times for type III was significantly lower than those for the other three types of burner-control linkage(${\alpha}$=0.05). Conclusion: It is concluded based on the results of this study that stereotype of gas range for Koreans is type III. This is in agreement with results of existing studies using questionnaire survey, while different from those based on physical models. Application: The results of this study would be useful as an ergonomic guideline when designing gas ranges or similar equipments for minimizing operation errors.

KSLV(Korea Space Launch Vehicle)-I is designed as a launch vehicle to enter a 100 kg-class satellite to the LEO(Low-Earth Orbit). Attitude angles of the upper-stage, including roll, pitch and yaw are controlled by cold gas thruster system using nitrogen gas. To verify the flow rate of the gas charging system and to prepare a nitrogen gas charging scenario, the development of a gas charging simulator for RCS(Reaction Control System) is required. This paper describes the orifice design, development, and test of the gas charging simulator for RCS of KSLV-I.

N₂O is hazardous atmosphere pollution matter which can damage the ozone layer and cause green house effect. There are many other nitrogen oxide emission control but N₂O has no its particular method. Preventing further environmental pollution and global warming, it is essential to control N₂O emission from industrial machines. In this study, the thermal decomposition experiment of N₂O gas mixture is conducted by using cylindrical reactor to figure out N₂O reduction and NO formation. And CHEMKIN calculation is conducted to figure out reaction rate and mechanism. Residence time of the N₂O gas in the reactor is set as experimental variable to imitate real SNCR system. As a result, most of the nitrogen components are converted into N2. Reaction rate of the N₂O gas decreases with N₂O emitted concentration. At 800℃ and 900℃, N₂O reduction variance and NO concentration are increased with residence time and temperature. However, at 1000℃, N₂O reduction variance and NO concentration are deceased in 40s due to forward reaction rate diminished and reverse reaction rate appeared.

A gas spring provides support force for lifting, positioning, lowering, and counterbalancing weights. It offers a wide range of reaction force with a flat force characteristic, simple mounting, compact size, speed controlled damping, and cushioned end motion. The most common usage is as a support on a horizontally hinged automotive tail gate. However, its versatility and ease of use has been applied in many other industrial applications ranging from office equipment to off-road vehicles. The cylinder of a gas spring is filled with compressed nitrogen gas, which is applied with equal pressure on both sides of the piston. The surface area of the rod side of the piston is smaller than the opposite side, producing a pushing force. The magnitude of the reaction force is determined by the cross-sectional area of the piston rod and the internal pressure inside the cylinder. The reaction force is influenced by many design parameters such as initial chamber volume, diameter ratio, etc. In this paper, we investigated the reaction force characteristics and carried out parameter sensitivity analysis for the design parameters of a gas spring.

The hydraulic system for discharging compressed gas is composed of compressor tank, proportional flow control servo valve, expulsion spool valve and discharging tube. Purpose of this study is to control of expulsion spool valve. First, we analyzed the hydraulic system. The flow control servo valve is modeled as a 2nd order transfer function and friction force of the expulsion spool valve is modeled as nonlinear model with stribeck effect. However, it is difficult to include the flow reaction force in modeling. So, we exchanged from the simplified flow reaction force of the compressed gas affection into the flow analysis code written in FORTRAN code. Our simulation of the oil pressure system for discharging gas used MATLAB/Simulink. So, we realized ＆apos;Level -2 S-Function Fortran＆apos; to cooperate for MATLAB/Simulink and FORTRAN code. PD controller is selected to control in this system. Simulation results show that with given conditions the controllers give a good tracking performance.

The advent of highly integrated, high-power electronics requires low a coefficient of thermal expansion performance to prevent delamination between the heat dissipation material and substrate. This paper reports a preliminary study on the manufacturing technology of gas reaction control composite material, focusing on the prediction of the thermal expansion coefficients of Al-AlN composite materials. We obtained numerical equivalent property values by using finite element analysis and compared the values with theoretical formulas. Al-AlN should become the optimal composite material when the proportion of the reinforcing phase is approximately 0.45.

Steam gasification of sawdust char was performed in a thermobalance reactor at high temperature. Gasification temperature was changed from $850^{\circ}C$ to $1400^{\circ}C$ and steam partial pressure was 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7 atm. Three models of gas-solid reaction were applied to the reaction kinetics analysis and modified volumetric model was an appropriate model. Reaction control regime and diffusion control regime were distinct depending on the temperature. Apparent activation energy and pre-exponential factors for both of the regimes were evaluated and the effects of steam partial pressure were examined. $H_2$ concentration in the produced gas was two times higher than that of CO due to the gasification accompanying by the water gas shift reaction.
