In order to know the characteristics of the hypersonic air-breahting engine, high altitude and Mach number ground test is necessary. Therefore, high pressure and high temperature condition should be simulated to do ground test of the hypersonic air-breathing engine. In this paper, the hypersonic air-breathing engine ground test facility of the Korea Aerospace Research Institute was introduced and the composition and characteristics were described.

연구지역인 대관령 서쪽 산지 사면은 진부에서 동쪽으로 고속도로를 따라 약 21km 떨어진 대관령까지이며 해발고도는 500∼900m 지형경사는 3.3%이다. 1989년 5월∼1992년 5 월에 진부에서 대관령 쪽으로 영동고속도로를 따라 진부(고도 544m) 간평기(고도 576m) 유 천리(고도 600m) 싸리재(고도800m) 대관령(고도 842m)등의 5개지점을 정하여 일 강수량을 측정하였다 각 고도별 일 강수량 자료를 기초로 한반도의 지상 기압배치형에 따른 대관령 서쪽 산지의 고도별 강수량 분포의 특성을 고찰하였다,. 이결과를 용약하면 다음과 같다. 총 강수일 258일을 지상 기압배치형(기압골, 저기압, 시베리아고기압, 장마전선, 고기압, 태풍, 오호츠크해고기압)에 따라 7가지 형으로 분류하였다, 이들중 기압골이 나타난 날이 113일로 제일 많고 오호츠크해고기압이 나타난 날은 8일로 가장적었다. 고도별 일평균 강수량은 태 풍이 나타났을 때 17,5∼54,4mm로 제일많았고 시베리아고기압이 나타났을 때는 5.9∼ 19.8mm로 제일 적었다, 대관령 서쪽 산지 사면에서 강수량이 제일 많은 고도는 대관령이고 제일적은 고도는 간평리이다, 태풍과 오호츠크해고기압이 출현한 경우는 고도가 증가할수록 강수량도 많아졌다. 간평리와 대관령 고도의 강수량 분포에 관한 사례분석(1989.5∼1991.12) 에서 기압골, 저기압, 장마전선등이 나타난 36일 시베리아고기압이 나타난 1일은 간평리가 대관령보다 강수량이 많았다.

The performance tests of secondary throat supersonic exhaust diffusers were carried out by using scaled down model and gas nitrogen. It was performed to find the performance characteristics according to diffuser inlet length(Ld), secondary throat length(Lst), divergence length(Ls). There was few change by diffuser inlet length(Ld), but starting pressures of the diffusers were effected by secondary throat length(Lst), divergence length(Ls). It was confirmed that starting pressure was not changed over 8 Lst/Dst.

This paper describes numerical efforts to investigate combustion characteristics of HyShot scramjet engine. The corresponding altitude, angle of attack, and equivalence ratio are 28 km, $0^{\circ}$, and 0.426 respectively. $H_2$ and OH mass fraction show that the upstream recirculation zone of injector has flame-holding effects and main combustion begins at 15 cm downstream from cowl. Two-dimensional simulation reasonably predicts combustor inner pressure and also reveals periodic combustion characteristics of HyShot scramjet engine.

A unified numerical analysis including combustion was conducted in order to study on performance of ramjet propulsion. The geometry of concern includes the entire flow path of a ramjet extending from intake to exhaust nozzle. Acceleration mode and cruise mode were considered in several equivalence ratios. Pressure distributions, terminal shock train range at the intake, temperature distributions in the combustors, and fuel mass fraction at the nozzle exit were investigated for each flight mode.

Vacuum facility is required for high altitude space environment test to develop small thruster to be applied for micro-satellite. After selecting vacuum equipment and integrating the chamber to simulate 100-120km attitude with max, $10^{-5}\;torr$. We tested the performance of high vacuum chamber. We designed, fabricated the knudsen pump and analyzed pressure gradient efficiency of membrane according to Knudsen number under vacuum conditions. We described the upgrade plan to a thermal vacuum chamber.

Rubus crataegifolius is a shrub species and is primarily distributed throughout Asia and Europe. We collected 550 representative samples of the eleven populations in Korea to estimate leaf variation within species. The 35 morphological characteristics allowed us to resolve well-supported fixed characteristics and variable characteristics. Sixteen of twenty-three quantitative characteristics and five of twelve qualitative characteristics showed significant differences among populations. We argued that the population differentiation can accounted for the variation in phenetic characteristics such as spine in this species, but were less successful in accounting for variation in other traits. Within a polystatistic leaf structure, their morphological differences could be modulated by ecological pressure such as temperature, altitude, duration of sunshine, and solar radiation. The phenogram showed two distinct clades. One was a group in central Korea and the other was a group in the southern regions of Korea. If morphological characteristics in R. crataegifolius populations reflect their ecological niche, morphology should be regarded with caution as the main criterion for population studies in R. crataegifolius.

This paper describes an ejector design technique which used for simulating low pressure environment corresponding to high altitude. Also the ejector performance characteristics was investigated according to performance and geometric variables by cold gas flow test. Entrainment ratio, compression ratio and expansion ratio were designated as performance variables and an ejector gap ratio was designated as a geometric variable. A relationship between the performance variables to predict the ejector performance was identified and it was confirmed that the performance variables have much more effective than the ejector gap ratio through the ejector cold gas flow test.

The steady-state and transient performance simulation program for a turboprop engine(PT6A-62) was developed. Specially this program included some algorithms, such as flat-rated behaviors in performance and limit control algorithms to prevent the compressor surge and the compressor-turbine inlet limit temperature overshoot. In order to minimize analysis errors, on interpolation method in component characteristics using matching errors and specific heat and specific heat ratio, which are functions of temperatures were used. The developed steady state performance analysis program can handle various conditions such as altitude, bleed extraction, inlet temperature and pressure and part throttle, and the transient performance analysis program incorporated a general mode for transient simulation and a control mode for prevention of the compressor surge and the turbine inlet limit temperature overshoot.

In the work package 'Integrated Positioning' of the research project NAVIO (Pedestrian Navigation Systems in Combined Indoor/Outdoor Environements) we are dealing with the navigation and guidance of visitors of our University. Thereby start points are public transport stops in the surroundings of the Vienna University of Technology and the user of the system should be guided to certain office rooms or persons. For the position determination of the user different location sensors are employed, i.e., for outdoor positioning GPS and dead reckoning sensors such as a digital compass and gyro for heading determination and accelerometers for the determination of the travelled distance as well as a barometric pressure sensor for altitude determination and for indoor areas location determination using WiFi fingerprinting. All sensors and positioning methods are combined and integrated using a Kalman filter approach. Then an optimal estimate of the current location of the user is obtained using the filter. To perform an adequate weighting of the sensors in the stochastic filter model, the sensor characteristics and their performance was investigated in several tests. The tests were performed in different environments either with free satellite visibility or in urban canyons as well as inside of buildings. The tests have shown that it is possible to determine the user's location continuously with the required precision and that the selected sensors provide a good performance and high reliability. Selected tests results and our approach will be presented in the paper.
