  • Submarines are weapons systems that have been proven to be useful in battle since World War I and have continued to improve the efficiency of propulsion systems in order to be used efficiently on the battlefield. In particular, countries that unable to utilize nuclear propulsion systems make efforts to increase the efficiency of Air Independent Propulsion systems, and typical examples are fuel cells, Stirling engines and MESMA. It is also expected that the development of new propulsion systems such as hydrogen-reformer fuel cells, metal-air fuel cell and direct combustion propulsion systems will continue, so the characteristics of these will be examined and the performance based on the published data be checked in this thesis.

  • In this study, we designed a hydraulic propulsion propeller system that allows dredged materials to be carried out by the dredger to the disposal place. The proposed model equation was used to formulate the screw propeller specifications considering the resistance to the dredger, and the quantitative specifications of the hydraulic propulsion propeller were determined through the numerical analysis programs. In addition, based on the proposed results, we were able to determine the specifications of the hydraulic system that was used for the hydraulic motor in the propulsion propeller device and then manufactured the hydraulic propulsion propeller. To guarantee the reliability of the proposed model equation, an external testing agency was invited and verified that the hydraulic propulsion propeller based on the proposed model equation could achieve the target speed in the dredger.

  • In this study, the curing characteristics of commonly used Hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene(HTPB)-based solid propellant according to the curing temperature and Equivalent ratio change were investigated. In addition, the effect of curing reaction according to their ratio and content in the Triphenyl bismuth(TPB), Maleic anhydride(MA) and Magnesium oxide(MgO) catalyst systems was confirmed. Finally, moisture was added for each propellant mixing process to check the effect of moisture on propellant curing.

  • Miniaturization of subsystems including propulsion systems is recent trends in spacecraft technology. Small space vehicle propulsion is not only a technological challenge of a scaling system down, but also a combination of fundamental flow/combustion constraints. In this paper, physical constraints of micronozzle for cold gas micro-thruster are reviewed and discussed. Method to measure small thrust are also described.
