로켓엔진용 연료펌프의 수력 성능과 흡입 성능을 관찰하기 위해 연료펌프에 대한 성능시험을 실시하였다. 성능 시험은 수력 성능 시험과 흡입 성능으로 나뉘며 시험의 편의를 위해 상온의 물을 매질로 택하였다. 수력 성능 시험 결과 양정, 효율, 볼류트 압력 분포 등은 상사 법칙을 잘 만족하는 것으로 드러났으나, 이차 유로의 압력 분포는 상사 법칙과 약간의 차이를 보였다. 그리고 플로팅 링 간극을 줄였을 때 펌프의 양정과 효율 모두 좋아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 바이패스 배관의 오리피스 변화는 연료펌프의 효율 변화와 특별한 경향성을 보이지 않았다. 마지막으로 흡입 성능 시험 결과 펌프의 시험 회전수를 높였을 때 펌프의 흡입 성능이 증가하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다.

회전체의 과도한 하중은 펌프의 손상이나 수명 감소의 원인이 된다. 이에 액체로켓엔진용 산화제펌프의 안정성 확보를 위해 펌프 회전체에 작용하는 하중을 상사 시험을 통해 예측하였다. 축방향 하중은 펌프 외부에 설치된 축추력 측정 장치를 통해 간접적으로 계측하였으며, 반경방향 하중은 볼류트의 압력 분포를 토대로 계산하였다. 그 결과, 펌프의 유량이 작을수록 축방향 하중과 반경방향 하중 모두 증가하는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러나, 하중의 크기가 크지 않아 펌프의 안정성에 영향을 끼치지 않을 것으로 예측되었다.

방조제 최종 체절시 또는 준설토 투기장 공사시 개방구간에서의 유속 및 내외측간 수위차를 예측하기 위한 영차원의 단순 모형이 제시되었다. 일반적으로 내조지에는 조간대가 크게 차지하고 있으므로 수위별 내조지 체적 변화를 수식화하여 조간대가 체절구간의 유속에 미치는 영향을 반영하였다. 그 결과를 다중격자 기법(multigrid method)을 이용하여 상세하게 차분하는 2차원 수심적분 모형 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다. 인천 북항 준설토 투기장에 적용한 결과 두 모형이 투기장에서의 조위변화 및 개구부에서의 조류속 변화를 서로 유사하게 재현하고 있는 것으로 평가된다.

Reducing the losses of the tip clearance flow is one of the keys in an unshrouded centrifugal compressor design and development because tip clearances are large in relation to the span of the blades and also centrifugal compressors produce a sufficiently large pressure rise in single stage. This problem is more acute for a low flow high-pressure ratio impeller design. The large tip clearance would cause flow separations, and as a result it would drop both the efficiency and surge margin. Thus a design of a high efficiency and wide operation range low flow coefficient centrifugal compressor is a great challenge. This paper describes a recent development of high efficiency and wide surge margin low flow coefficient centrifugal compressor. A viscous turbomachinery optimal design method developed by the authors for axial flow machine was further extended and used in the centrifugal compressor design. The compressor has three main parts: impeller, a low solidity diffuser and volute. The tip clearance is under a special consideration in this design to allow impeller insensitiveness to the clearance. A patented three-dimensional low solidity diffuser design method is used and applied to this design. The compressor test results demonstrated to be successful to extend the low solidity diffusers to high-pressure ratio compressor. The compressor stage performance showed the total to static efficiency of the compressor being about 85% and stability range over 35%. The test results are in good agreement with the design.

Pressure distribution around rotating impeller blades in centrifugal pump has been main issue for design of efficient and high performance automotive water pump. In addition, pressure losses of inlet water pipes should be considered to reduce additional pressure drop and design high performance engine cooling system. In this paper, pressure distribution inside water pump and pressure drop between inlet and outlet of water pump are investigated numerically to design plastic water pump for clean diesel engine application. And the inlet geometry of water pump was considered to analysis the effect of inlet water pipe geometry on pressure distribution around impeller blades and outlet pressure. The prediction results are compared with experimental data to validate and determine optimal operation condition without water pump cavitation. Major design parameters such as blade angle, volute geometry, system pressure, and coolant flow rate are considered to confirm applying possibility of plastic blades to the clean diesel engine.

The present study represents the effects of boundary condition on the performance of a centrifugal blower at the interference plane between rotational and stationary domains using three dimensional compressible Navier-Stocks equations. Two boundary conditions, frozen-rotor and stage, are compared to analyze the blower performance. Installation angle between the cutoff of a volute casing and a impeller blade is also introduced to evaluate the blower performance and to understand the internal flow inside the blower. Throughout numerical simulation, it is found that the frozen rotor interface method at the interference plane represents well the variations of flow field inside the blower compared to stage interface method. However, pressure has maximum two percent error according to the installation angles while pressure is almost constant for the stage interface method. And stage interface method can relatively well predict the blower performance. Detailed internal flows of the centrifugal blower are compared and analyzed by numerical simulation.

Low NPSH and high pressure pumps are widely used for turbopump systems, which have an inducer and operate at high rotating speeds In this paper, a meanline method has been established for the preliminary design and performance prediction of pumps having an inducer for cavitating or non-cavitating conditions and at design or off-design points. The method was applied for the performance prediction of a fuel pump, which had been developed by Hyundai Mobis in collaboration with KeRC for a liquid rocket engine. The engine uses liquid methane and liquid oxygen as working fluids and rotates at 50,000 rpm KeRC carried out a model testing of the fuel pump with water as a working fluid at the reduced speed (10,000 ${\~}$ 15,000 rpm). Predicted performances by the method are shown to be in good agreement with experimental results for cavitating and non-cavitating conditions. The established meanline method can be used for the performance prediction and preliminary design of high speed pumps which have a inducer, impeller and volute.

액체로켓용 연료펌프의 설계를 검증하기 위해 상용 3차원 유동해석 소프트웨어를 이용하여 설계점 성능을 예측하였다. 연료펌프의 성능과 축추력에 영향을 미치는 누설유량에 대한 예측의 정확도를 높이기 위해 인듀서, 임펠러, 볼류트 및 2차 유로를 계산영역으로 설정하였으며 인듀서/임펠러/누설유로/볼류트 사이의 경계면에 혼합면 기법을 적용하여 계산에 소요되는 시간을 줄이고자 하였다. 유동해석을 통해 예측된 수력성능은 설계요구조건을 만족시키는 것으로 나타났으나 축추력이 허용치에 비해 크게 예측되어 이를 감소시키기 위한 설계변경이 이루어졌다. 변경된 설계안에 대한 유동해석을 수행한 결과 연료펌프의 수력성능은 유지되면서 축추력은 처음의 설계안에 비해 30% 수준으로 크게 감소하였음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study is focused on the analysis of 3D complex flow and performance characteristics of a centrifugal pump with volute casing. The numerical analysis was performed by commercial code CFX-10 according to the variation of flow rate, which is changing from 5.847$m^3$/min to 6.865$m^3$/min. The rated rotational speed of close type impeller is 1750rpm. Turbulence model, k-${\omega}$ SST was selected to guaranty more accurate prediction of flow separation. The ICEM-CFD 10, reliable grid generation software was also adapted to secure high quality grid generation necessary for the reliable numerical simulation. The experimental results such as static head, brake horse power and efficiency of the centrifugal pump were compared with the numerical analysis results. The simulated results are good agreement with the experimental results less 5$%$ error.

Turbo-fan for ceiling cassette type air conditioner doesn't operate in general volute. It is operated by porous material, heat exchanger. Heat exchanger increases resistance of air conditioning system and disturbs exit-flow of impeller. Therefore it has some influences on impeller capacity. In this study, we want to how that influence of exchanger on impeller capacity for ceiling cassette type air conditioner. To research, we made circular case that didn't have asymmetric part unlike rectangular case. With and without heat exchanger we measured total pressure and static pressure of impeller and three-dimensional rear flow field From the result, a turbo fan , installed in the 35mm back of fan and operated in heat exchanger, experienced $2{\%}{\~}5{\%}$% total pressure loss over all flow rate. With heat exchanger impeller efficiency decrease as flow rate decrease when flow rate coefficient was below 0.18. Especially when flow rate coefficient was below 0.12, there was $20{\%}{\~}30{\%}$ decrease of impeller efficiency.
