The 7tonf-class power pack test at turbopump test facility in Naro space center was performed for confirmations of starting/running/ending operation characteristics before 7tonf rocket engine hot-firing test. The dynamic pressure mounted on a combustion chamber of gas generator is measured under 0.2 bar which does not conditioned to the unstable combustion. The analysis results of RPM and acceleration sensors mounted on the turbopump, the power pack test was performed to the estimated RPM with the stable combustion.

It is known that reliability of liquid rocket engines depends on the design thrust, propellant, engine cycle, and hot firing test time. Previously, a method was developed for estimating reliability of a new engine by adjusting the design thrust and hot firing test time of reference engines where reference engines have the same propellant and engine cycle with the new engine. In this paper, we provide a procedure to predict the engine reliability when the new engine and the reference engine have different propellant and engine cycles. The proposed method is illustrated to estimate the engine reliability of the first stage of Korea Space Launch Vehicle II.

LRE(liquid rocket engine) performance design code with several modules for each engine component has been developed for a preliminary design purpose. Thrust chamber, non-cryogenic centrifugal pump, single stage axial impulse turbine, gas generator and exhaust pipe for extra thrust have been considered. For simplicity, pump exit pressures are fixed, which eliminates pressure balancing problem between thrust chamber and turbopump unit. In this paper, calculated performance parameters with system flow charts and the design methodologies for each component are briefly presented and the results are compared with tile real engine specification.

The objective of this paper is to study the effects of the input gas flow rate and the ambient temperature variation on the absorption cycle performance. An air-cooled NH$_3$-$H_2O$ absorption chiller is tested in the present study. The nominal cooling capacity of the single effect maching is 17.6 ㎾ (5.0 USRT). The cooling capacity, coefficient of performance, burner efficiency, and each state point are measured with the variations of the heat input and the ambient temperature. It is found that the COP and cooling capacity increase with increasing the generator exit temperature up to a certain temperature and then decrease. It is also found that the COP and the cooling capacity decrease with increasing the ambient temperature. The maximum COP of 0.51 is obtained from the present experiment.

Plasma polymerization in prepared glow discharge was carried out to improve the bathochromic of dyed PET fabrics by using silicon containing vinyl monomer in plasma polymerization equipment which consists of a pair of electrodes was connected to the 13.56MHz RF generator. The optimum condition for the bathochromic effect was investigated on various plasma polymeriztion parameters. By plasma polymerization used silicon containing vinyl monomer, the bathochromic of dyed PET fabrics was very enhanced. The optimum conditions on this equipment were as follows ; electrode distance : 3cm, discharge output : 60W, gas pressure : 0.3 Torr, monomer flow rate : 30㎤/min. plasma polymerization time : 60sec. The apparent strength of plasma polymerized PET fabrics was increased about 40∼47% with decreasing about 3 of L value.

A mathematical model of slip-in booster separation dynamics is described. A longitudinal 3-DOF(degree of freedom) 2-body dynamic model is developed to simulate the separation dynamics. Aerodynamic models of the missile and the exposed area of booster are built. And, gas generator pushing the booster out and internal channel pressure drop are modelled. To simulate the model, it is assumed that the missile can maintain the 1g level-fight condition during the separation. With this assumption, the interaction forces between missile and booster through the separation phases: phase 0: initial, phase 1: linear translation, and phase 2: free flight motion are defined. Using the simulation, missile flight conditions for slip-in booster`s safe separation, which can be represented by Mach vs. height envelope, are suggested.

In this study, the smoke flows of the inner subway station were visualized through a numerical analysis and visualization experiment in the subway fire. A transparent acrylic model was designed and installed as 1:25th scale-down as the actual subway station by using geometrical similarity The properties of subway fire were reconstructed according to Densimetric Froude Similarity. The 47 to 53 ratio of the mixed air and Helium was inputted in the inner acrylic model to describe 1MW fire intensity with reference to the experiment paper. For the same time, the fire smoke from a smoke generator was inputted in the inner acrylic model with the mixture. At this time, the buoyancy effect of Helium gas went up the smoke to the acrylic model. When the sheet beam of Ar-lon laser was given out to the top and stair of subway model, the digital camcorder took the images of the scattered cluster of smoke particles when applying the smoke management system and PSD.

The dynamic stress of the diesel engine block is analyzed by using flexible-body dynamic analysis. Multiple loadings including the pressure load due to gas combustion, thermal load, and dynamic load are considered. Thermal load is assumed constant, however, pressure load and dynamic load are treated as time dependent. The present work is focused on the dynamic stress analysis, especially on finding critical points of the engine block. The analysis model includes four parts - engine block, generator, bed, and mounts. On the other hand, crank shaft, pistons, and main bearings are excluded from the model. However, their dynamic effects are applied by dynamic forces, obtained in the separate analysis. Dynamic stress is found by using flexible body dynamic analysis, and compared to the measured data.

Operating characteristics of a triple pressure reheat HRSG are analyzed using a commercial software package (Gate Cycle by GE Enter Software). The calculation routine determines all the design parameters including configuration and area of each heat exchanger. The off-design calculation part has the capability of simulating the effect of any operating parameters such as power load, process requirements, and operating mode, etc., on the transient performance of the plant. The arrangement of high-temperature and intermediate-temperature components of the HRSG is changed, and its effect on the steam turbine performance and HRSG characteristics is examined. It is shown that there could be a significant difference in HRSG sizes even though thermal performance is not in great deviation. From the viewpoint of both economics and steam turbine performance, it should be carefully reviewed whether the optimum design point could exist. Off-design performance could be one of the main factors in arranging components of the HRSG because power plants operate at various off-design conditions such as ambient temperature and gas turbine load, etc. It is shown that different heat exchanger configurations lead to different performances with ambient temperature, even though they have almost the same performances at design points.
