한국항공우주연구원(KARI)은 전기추진 수직이착륙(eVOTL) 항공기 공력성능 향상 방안 연구의 일환으로 교차회전 방식에 대한 기술개발 타탕성에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. 프로펠러 반지름을 증가시켜 전산해석을 수행하고 기존 상용 멀티콥터를 구매하여 0.11 m와 0.21 m 프로펠러를 적용하여 교차회전 구동방식에 관한 기술개발 가능성을 확인한 후, 총 중량 3 kg급의 멀티콥터를 설계 제작하여 추력 및 소음을 측정하기 위한 지상시험을 수행하였다. 교차회전 방식의 효율성을 검증하기 위해 지상시험은 15 in.와 22 in. 프로펠러를 적용하여 동일한 깃끝 속도(Tip speed) 조건에서 추력 및 소음을 측정하여 결과를 비교 분석 하였다. 지상시험결과 요구동력은 22 in. 프로펠러를 적용한 교차회전 방식이 15 in. 프로펠러와 비교하여 약 30%정도 절감 되며 공력소음의 경우 3~5 dB의 소음감소 효과가 측정 되었다.

오늘날 무인기는 기술 발전을 통해 육해상의 다양한 분야에서 이용되고 있다. 한국항공우주연구원(KARI)에서는 육상용 수직이착륙기로 개발된 틸트로터 무인기를 해상에서 운용할 수 있도록 임무영역 확장을 고려하고 있다. 틸트로터 무인기의 효과적인 해상운용을 위해서는 함상이착륙이 필요하지만 해상은 지상에 비해 염분, 연무, 바람등 기상영향을 많이 받는다. 또한 지상과는 달리 선박 운동으로 인한 착륙지점의 운동이 발생하며, 자동 함상착륙을 어렵게 만든다. 이러한 무인기 함상이착륙을 위하여 본 논문에서는 파고에 따른 선박 운동을 모델링 하고, 무인기 시뮬레이터를 통해 시험평가한 결과를 제시하고 있다.

This paper presents the computational aerodynamic analysis of a long-endurance UAV that was developed by the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI), named EAV-2. EAV-2 is a technical demonstrator of aerodynamically efficient design, as well as a hybrid electric-propulsion system for future long-endurance UAVs. We evaluated the aerodynamic characteristics of six low-Reynolds number airfoils, using a panel method code, XFOIL, to select an optimal airfoil for the long-endurance mission of EAV-2. The computational results by a CFD code, FLUENT, suggested that the aerodynamic performance of EAV-2 would be notably improved after adopting SG6043 airfoil, and modifying the fuselage design. This reduced the total drag by 43%, compared to that of a previous KARI model, EAV-1, at the target lift of $C_L=1.0$. Also, we achieved a drag reduction of approximately 14% by means of the low-drag fuselage configuration.

The final product generated from the KOMPSAT-2 Terminal for Polar System, K2PS, is an ellipsoid projected image. This leaves a relief displacement on the image by process of which the height value of subject area is constant. In this paper, orthorectification using the SRTM was used to remove such artifacts, and thereafter, the additional product that could be generated from the K2PS was discussed.

A fluid transient analysis on the Koreasat 1 & 2 pipeline system is conducted through numerical parametric studies in which unsteady friction results are compared with quasi-steady friction results and show relatively accurate prediction of the response curve with the unsteady friction. The code developed and used in this analysis has finished verification through comparing with the original Zielke model, the full and recursive convolution model and quasi-steady model as a reference. The unsteady friction is calculated by the recursive convolution Zielke model in which a complete evolution history of velocity field is no longer required so that it makes the fluid transient analysis on the complicated system possible. The results show that the application of quasi-steady friction to model cannot predict the entire response curve properly except the first peak amplitude but application of unsteady friction to model can predict reasonably he response curve, therefore it is to know the characteristics of the propulsion system.

The COMS LRIT/HRIT broadcast service should satisfy the 15 minutes timeliness requirement. The timeliness requirement is an important enough to impact on the overall performance of LHGS. Therefore, the simulation for the LHGS processing was performed with the LHGS prototype in this paper. First, processing time is measured for each process (per modules) of the LHGS without I/O time. Then, the LHGS processing is performed with worst scenario and the processing time is measured. Finally, analyses for processing time and time constraint are performed.

The COMS ground segment will operate the geostationary satellite continuously 24h/7days and deliver processed data to end-users with respect to the predefined schedule without delay. For reliable operation, each COMS ground center has internally dual-configuration for critical systems but impossible to every components. Any unexpected failure or regular maintenance to the single configured antenna system may lead the interruption of COMS service and operation. The natural disaster or external attack can destroy one ground center and the operation will be stopped. Therefore COMS program implements backup system remotely located in other centers. Even considering foreign geostationary systems, it's the best solution guaranteeing consistent system operation against internal failure or external disaster.

Korea Aerospace Research Institute(here after KARI) has a plan to launch experimental lunar orbiter in 2018, and lunar orbiter and lander in 2020. There are several ways to go to the moon. Which one is direct transfer trajectory and another one is phasing loop transfer trajectory and the other one is WSB trajectory. Regardless of the transfer trajectories, LOI maneuver is the most important maneuver of all mission sequences because if this burn is failed, it is too difficult to get into the lunar orbit in the future. This paper describes first LOI target value of foreign lunar orbiters and analyzes orbital variations of experimental lunar orbiter according to various target values. By analyzing the variation of orbiter parameter after first LOI, proper orbital period for LOI target value are recommended to meet the inclination, apoapsis and periapsis altitude constraints.

The fist sounding rocket in Korea, KSR-420S has been under the development at Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI), and is expected to be launched in 1993 to measure the vertical ozone profile over the Korean Peninsula. The KSR-420S is expected to provide the fist in situ measurement of ozone concentrations over the Korean Peninsula. An optical ozone detector has been developed at Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS), and its calibration has been completed recently. In this paper, measurement principles of the ozone detector in KSR-420S, its calibration data, ozone measurement procedure and data reduction algorithm are presented with sample calculations.
