The benefits for using reduced takeoff thrust are many, ranging from lower maintenance and operating costs to improved engine and dispatch reliabilities. Some pilots, however, are apprehensive about using reduced thrust. They are particularly reluctant to use the maximum permissible level of reduced thrust. Two common arguments are (1)If reduced thrust is used, then the airplane will not be able to clear the obstacles if an engine fails during takeoff, and (2)If the maximum allowable assumed temperature is used, then there will be no stopping margin left if the takeoff is aborted. There is the notion that using reduced thrust sacrifices safety. The intent of this discussion is to: (1)Show that reduced thrust performance meets all regulatory requirements (2)Show that the Assumed Temperature method includes inherent extra performance margins (3)Show how to maximize performance margins while maximizing thrust reduction.

An experimental and numerical investigation of the ejector-jets focusing on its geometric parameters that effect on thrust performance was carried out. The area ratio of the primary nozzle that was tested in the present study was 2.17 and 3.18, while the ratio of the length to the diameter of the duct downstream the primary nozzle inlet had values of 3.41, 6.82, and 10.23. Internal flow properties of ejector-jet were estimated by comparison experiment data and CFD analysis for basic study of ejector-jet thrust performance. For examination of thrust performance, the thrust ratios increased with increase in L/D. Especially at AR=2.17, the maximum thrust augmentation was 33 percent for the shortest L/D. It is expected that the increase of mixing duct length of ejector-jet will be helpful in a thrust performance by improving mixing efficiency.

Thrust-ring-pump is a kind of extreme-low specific speed centrifugal pump with special structure as numerous restrictions from thrust bearing and operation conditions of hydro-generator units. Because the oil circulatory and cooling system with thrust-ring-pump has a lot of advantages in maintenance and compactness in structure, it has widely been used in large and medium-sized hydro-generator units. Since the diameter and the speed of the thrust ring is limited by the generator set, the matching relationship between the flow passage inside the thrust ring (equivalent to impeller) and oil bath (equivalent to volute) has great influence on hydrodynamic performance of thrust-ring-pump. On another hand, the head and flow rate are varying with the operation conditions of hydro-generator units and the oil circulatory and cooling system. As so far, the empirical calculation method is employed during the actual engineering design, in order to guarantee the operating performance of the oil circulatory and cooling system with thrust-ring-pump at different conditions, a collaborative hydrodynamic design and optimization is purposed in this paper. Firstly, the head and flow rate at different conditions are decided by 1D flow numerical simulation of the oil circulatory and cooling system. Secondly, the flow passages of thrust-ring-pump are empirically designed under the restrictions of diameter and the speed of the thrust ring according to the head and flow rate from the simulation. Thirdly, the flow passage geometry matching optimization between thrust ring and oil bath is implemented by means of 3D flow simulation and performance prediction. Then, the pumps and the oil circulatory and cooling system are collaborative hydrodynamic optimized with predicted head-flow rate curve and the efficiency-flow rate curve of thrust-ring-pump. The presented methodology has been adopted by DFEM in design process of thrust-ring-pump and it shown can effectively improve the performance of whole system.

Thrust is one of the important performance characteristics of an AUV. At the design stage, the resistance of an AUV at its maximum speed is estimated and then the thrust system is designed, including the propeller diameter, propeller rpm, driving system, and required power. However, it is not possible to be certain that the thrust system has been correctly designed until the AUV is launched and its speed is measured. If data from a propeller open-water test is available, the thrust and torque of the propeller at a certain speed can be estimated. In addition, if the motor's torque characteristics are available, the maximum speed saturated by the induced propeller torque can be estimated. In this paper, an easy technique for estimating the maximum speed of an AUV will be shown, even in a case where additional resistance is gained from appendages not considered at the design stage. Furthermore, the thrust performance changes by adjusting the diameter of the propeller can be easily investigated.

In thrust bearings, the thrust collar and bearing surface need to be parallel to each other to ensure that all pads share the same load. In rotating machines, the shaft system cannot achieve perfect alignment. Misalignment of the thrust collar results in some pads supporting a higher load than others and excessive loads being placed on some pads. Consequently, high loads and high temperatures may occur in the bearing. Thus, in this study, we aim to analytically evaluate the performance of a misaligned non-equalizing direct lubricated tilting pad thrust bearing. We define the oil film thickness of the misaligned thrust bearing using the Byrant angle. Additionally, we calculate the pressure distribution and temperature distribution of the thrust bearing using the generalized Reynolds equation and energy equation. The design limit of the thrust bearing is defined by the load and temperature. Therefore, we evaluate the allowable misalignment angle as the limit of the maximum load and temperature. The analysis results demonstrate that an increase in the speed and load corresponds to a smaller allowable misalignment angle. However, as this is not the same for all thrust bearings, evaluating the allowable misalignment angle at each thrust bearing is essential.

본 연구에서는 하이브리드 로켓의 추력 제어 연소실험을 통하여 추력 제어 성능 향상을 위한 연구를 진행하였다. 추력 제어 명령에 따라 니들밸브와 결합된 스텝모터의 구동을 제어함으로써 산화제 유량을 조절하는 시스템을 구축하였다. 하이브리드 로켓 연소실험에서 사용된 산화제로는 기체산소($GO_2$)를 사용하였으며 추진제는 PE(Polyethylene)와 PC(Polycarbonate)를 사용하였다. 추력 제어 연소실험 초기에 발생되었던 추력섭동(Thrust Oscillation) 현상의 개선과 낮은 응답속도의 향상을 위해 연소실험 과정에서 산화제 배관의 유속 변화를 측정하고 원인을 분석하였다. 이를 보완한 연소 실험을 통하여 추력명령의 ${\pm}1$ N 이내에서 추력이 안정적으로 제어되었다.

There is an intensifying demand fur linear motors in vast range of industry applications such as in factory automation and semi-conductor manufacturing equipment due to their high positioning accuracy, high static stiffness, high thrust and excellent dynamic characteristics. This paper presents an iron core type linear motor for machine tool whose rated thrust is up to 6000N. For electromagnetic field and dynamic analysis, finite element method (FEM) is implemented to predict motor performance. Various design parameters are considered to reduce thrust ripple and to improve dynamic performance with the least sacrifice of effective thrust. Experimental results on thrust and static stiffness are also followed to confirmed the validity of the analysis.
