We have employed a technique of corona excited supersonic expansion to generate electronically excited but jet-cooled o-tolunitrile. The vibronically well-resolved emission spectrum of the jet-cooled o-tolunitrile in the $S_{1}\rightarrow S_{0}$ transition was recorded in the uv region using a Fourier transform spectrometer equipped with a Quartz-uv beam splitter. The electronic transition and vibrational mode frequencies in the ground electronic state were accurately determined from the analysis of the spectra observed.

An axisymmetric supersonic jet is simulated at a Mach number of 1.5 and a Reynolds number of $10^5$ to identify the mechanism of sound radiation from the jet. The present simulation is performed based on the high-order accuracy and high-resolution ENO(Essentially Non-Oscillatory) schemes to capture the time-dependent flow structure representing the sound source. In this simulation, optimum expansion jet is selected as a target, where the pressure at nozzle exit is equal to that of the ambient pressure, to see pure shear layer growth without effect of change in jet cross section due to expansion or shock wave generated at nozzle exit. Shock waves are generated near vortex rings, and discernible pressure waves called Mach wave are radiated in the downstream direction with an angle from the jet axis, which is characteristic of high speed jet noise. Furthermore, vortex roll-up phenomena are observed through the visualization of vorticity contours.

The $CN(B^2{\Sigma}^+)$ radical was produced in a jet using an electric dc discharge of the precursor $CH_3CN$ with inert carrier gases. The rotationally resolved Fourier transform emission spectra of the 0-0 band of the $(B^2{\Sigma}^+{\to}X^2{\Sigma}^+)$ transition of CN have exhibited different distribution of the intensity for the carrier gases He and Ar, respectively. From the analysis of intensity distribution in the spectra, the mechanism for rotational cooling process of CN radical in a supersonic expansion has been suggested.

An analysis is made of flow and rocket motion during a supersonic separation stage of air-launching rocket(ALR) from the mother plane. Three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations is numerically solved to analyze the steady/unsteady flow field around the rocket which is being separated from the mother plane configuration(F-4E Phantom). The simulation results clearly demonstrate the effect of shock-expansion wave interaction between the rocket and the mother plane. To predict the behavior of the ALR according to the change of the C.G., three cases of numerical analysis are performed. As a result, a design-guideline of supersonic air-launching rocket for the safe separation is proposed.

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles by the supersonic nozzle expansion method with corona discharge ions was investigated. Corona discharge ions functioned as seeds for heterogeneous nucleation in the silver nanoparticles formation process and provided silver nanoparticles with electronic repulsive force that prevents aggregation of the particles. For ion ejecting, we used sonic-jet corona discharger. Upon application of the corona discharge ions, the mean diameter of the produced particles was decreased from 12.54 to 6.22nm and the standard deviation was decreased from 5.02 to 3.34nm. In addition, the agglomeration of silver nanoparticles was reduced.

For the improvement of aerodynamic performance of the turbine blade in a turbopump for the liquid rocket engine, the optimization of turbine profile shape has been studied. The turbine in a turbopump in this study is a partial admission of impulse type, which has twelve nozzles and supersonic inflow. Due to the separated nozzles and supersonic expansion, the flow field becomes complicate and shows oblique shocks and flow separation. To increase the blade power, redesign ol the blade shape using CFD and optimization methods was attempted. The turbine cascade shape was represented by four design parameters. For optimization, a genetic algorithm based upon non-gradient search hue been selected as an optimizer. As a result, the final blade has about 4 percent more blade power than the initial shape.

An axisymmetric supersonic jet is simulated at a Mach number 2.1 and a Reynolds numberof 70000 to identify the mechanism of Mach wave generation and radiation from the jet. In orderto provide the near-field radiated sound directly and resolve the large-scale vortices highly.high-resolution essentially non-oscillatory(ENO) scheme, which is one of the ComputationalAeroAcoustics(CAA) techniques, is newly employed. Perfectly expanded supersonic jet is selectedas a target to see pure shear layer growth and Mach wave radiation without effect of change injet cross section due to expansion or shock wave generated at nozzle exit. The sound field ishighly directional and dominated by Mach waves generated near the end of potential core. Thenear field sound pressure levels as well as the aerodynamic properties of the jet, such asmean-flow parameters are in fare agreement with experimental data.

In this numerical approach, strut-placed supersonic annular flow is examined. The geometrical variations of strut cause strong influence on flowfield structures. The geometrical variations are as follows, swept effect, attack angle effect, variation of leading edge shape. These changed features such as velocity structure, pressure structure, shock-boundary layer interaction are compared and analyzed according to each geometrical configuration.

Two- and three-dimensional turbulent airflows in a 9-degrees-bent channel are studied numerically. The inner surfaces of upper and lower walls are parallel to each other upstream and downstream of the bend section. The free stream is supersonic, whereas the flow at the channel exit is either supersonic or subsonic depending on the given backpressure. Solutions of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are obtained with a finite-volume solver ANSYS CFX. The solutions reveal instability of formed shock waves and a flow hysteresis in considerable bands of the free-stream Mach number at zero and negative angles of attack. The instability is caused by an interaction of shocks with the expansion flow formed over the convex bend of lower wall.

In order to investigate the nozzle - rotor interactions and the effect of partial admission, the flows in supersonic turbine rotor cascades with a nozzle have been computed. Extensive computations of partial admission supersonic turbines provide the shock structures and flow patterns in the nozzle and rotor. The governing equations were discretized with Euler implicit method in time and 2nd-order upwind scheme of FVM in space. The $\kappa$-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model was utilized to describe the turbulent flow field. It is clearly shown that the nozzle flow is highly affected by the shocks or expansion waves propagated from the rotor leading edge. And the rotor flow is also affected by the shocks or wakes originated from the nozzle.
