Combustion stability tests of 30 $ton_f$-class LRE thrust chamber with double swirl coaxial injector were carried out in domestic ground combustion test facility by means of artificial perturbation method. In these tests, thrust chambers with varying design factors like recess number of injector, baffle length, types of film cooling and chamber diameter were used and test results showed that these design factors are closely related with high frequency combustion stability. By using the oscillation decrement instead of the decay time in the combustion stability analysis of artificially perturbed LRE thrust chamber, it was confirmed that increment of damping factor results in the improvement of high frequency combustion stability of LRE thrust chamber.

A dynamic stability test was performed to determine dynamic stability derivatives for the pure pitching motion of air-to-ground missile model in the low speed wind tunnel. The free vibration technique was employed to acquire oscillation characteristics of the model for damping coefficients. Damping coefficients are obtained by the method of logarithmic decrement. Results show good damping effects and stability capability at Mach numbers 0.1 and 0.2, with the angle of attack ranging from -15 to +20 degrees.

This study is concerned with the fluid sloshing dampers to suppress the high vibration in the resonance and operating regions. An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the logarithmic decrement, natural frequency, tuning frequency ratio of oscillation of liquids contained in an spherical rigid container. The decay of the vibration amplitude was studied for the range of liquid filling ratio in container. The results of the investigation indicate that the sloshing motion of liquids results in an increase in the available effective damping when the filling ratio is in the region near H/R=1.3-1.6.

We report low conversion loss and high LO to RF isolation 94 GHz MMIC resistive mixers based on 0.1 ${\mu}m$ InGaAs/InAlAs/GaAs metamorphic HEMT technology. The fabricated resistive mixers applied a one-stage amplifier on RF port of the mixer. By using the one-stage amplifier, we obtained the decrement of conversion loss and the increment of LO to RF isolation. So, we can obtain higher performances than conventional resistive mixers. The modified mixer shows excellent conversion loss of 6.7 dB at a LO power of 10 dBm. We also observed an extremely high isolation characteristic from the MMICs exhibiting the LO-RF isolation of 21 ${\pm}$ 0.5dB in a frequency range of 93.7${\sim}$ 94.3 GHz. The low conversion loss and high LO-RF isolation characteristics of the MMIC modified resistive mixers are mainly attributed to the performance of the MHEMTs exhibiting a maximum transconductance of 654 mS/mm, a current gain cut-off frequency of 173 GHz and a maximum oscillation frequency of 271 GHz.

Recently, technical trend for machine tools is focused on enhancement of speed and accuracy. High speedy processing causes thermal and structural deformation of objects from the machine tools. Water cooler has to be applied to machine tools to reduce the thermal negative influence with accurate temperature controlling system. Existing On-Off control type can't control temperature accurately because compressor is operated and stopped repeatedly and causes increment of power consumption and decrement of the expected life of compressor. The goal of this study is to minimize temperature error in steady state. In addition, control period of an electronic expansion valve were considered to increment of lifetime of the machine tools and quality of product with a water cooler. PI controller is designed using type of hot-gas bypass for precise control of temperature. Gain of PI is decided easily by method of critical oscillation response, excellent performance of control is shown with 4.24% overshoot and ${\pm}0.2^{\circ}C$error of steady state. Also, error range of temperature is controlled within $0.2^{\circ}C$although disturbance occurs.
