This paper presents a numerical investigation on detonation of a kerosene-air mixture in the copper tube and the structural response associated with combustion instability in liquid rocket engine. A single step Arrehnius rate law and Johnson-Cook strength model are used to describe the chemical reaction of kerosene-air mixture detonation and the plastic deformation of the copper tube. The changes of flow field and tube stress which are induced by plastic deformation, are investigated on the different tube thicknesses and nozzle configurations.

Transition Nozzles are used in industrial air-cooled heat exchangers and widely used in industrial sites as an important component in the heat energy transfer between a heat source and an actuating fluid. There is a worldwide demand for transition nozzles with various materials and shapes, depending on the use environment. This paper aims to improve the transition nozzle forging process suitable for the production of many varieties using Steps 1 to 6 of the TRIZ Methodology for Problem Solving. By utilizing the TRIZ Methodology, this study derives a method to design a variable mold, which is more efficient and can reduce costs compared with having to use several molds. To verify the suitability of the methods derived using the TRIZ technique, a forging analysis is performed on a transition nozzle using DEFORMⓇ, a commercial program for plasticity analysis, and the nozzle material is evaluated for damage as a result of deformation of the transition nozzle thickness. The derived methods can be applied to transition nozzle formation equipment to improve the efficiency of the formation process.

Recently the primary water stress corrosion cracking(PWSCC) has occurred in the dissimilar metal weld region between pressurizer nozzle and safe-end in nuclear power plants(NPPs). As material of the pressurizer nozzle, SA508 Gr. 3 low alloy steel was used. F316L stainless steel and Alloy 82/182 were used as safe-end and weld metal, respectively. Although mechanical properties are needed for evaluation of the structural integrity against flaw in the material, material specification and standard don't supply those properties. Therefore, the present study conducted tensile and fracture toughness tests on SA508 Gr.3 and F316L stainless steel at ambient temperature and operating temperature of NPPs and reported the tested results.

A calorimeter of 2-ton thrust level rocket engine chamber has been developed to measure the wall heat flux. The liner of the chamber is made of copper-chromium alloy to maximize the heat transfer performance and structural strength. 1-D design code based on empirical correlations has been used for the prediction of the global thermal characteristics while 3-D CFD has been applied for the verification of local cooling performance. The predicted average wall heat flux at the throat is 43 $MW/m^{2}$ for the combustion chamber pressure of 53 bar. The chamber structure is confirmed to be safe at the pressure of 150 bar through 2-D stress analysis and measurement of the strain of the test species. Finally, the test of pressurizing the calorimeter chamber has been performed with water at the pressure of 150 bar in room temperature environment. No thermal damage has been detected after the hot-fire test in the test nozzle of same cooling performance with the developed calorimeter though the measured throat heat flux is higher than the design value by 10%.

Endwall losses contribute significantly to the overall losses in modern turbomachinery, especially when aerodynamic airfoil load and pressure ratio are increased. Hence, reducing the extend and intensity of the secondary flow structures helps to enhance overall efficiency. From the large range of viable approaches, a promising combination positioning and height of endwall contouring was chosen. The objective of this study is to document the three-dimensional flow in a turbine cascade in terms of streamwise vorticity, total pressure loss distribution and static pressure distribution on the endwall and blade surface and to propose an appropriate positioning and height of the endwall contouring which show best secondary, overall loss reduction among the simulated endwall. The flow through the gas turbine were numerically analyzed using three dimensional Navier-Stroke equations with a commercial CFD code ANSYS CFX-10. The result shows that the overall loss is reduced near the flat endwall rather than contoured endwall, and the case of contoured endwall installed at 30% from leading edge with height of 25% for span showed best performance.

A turbocharger is an engine supercharger that is driven by exhaust gas. It improves the output and fuel efficiency by increasing the charging efficiency of the mixture gas, which is achieved by changing the rotatory power of the turbine connected to the exhaust passage. It is important to control the supercharging for this purpose. A nozzle slide joint is one of the core parts. Austenitic stainless steel is currently used as the material for this part, and its excellent mechanical properties include high heat resistance and corrosion resistance. However, because of its poor machinability, there are many difficulties in producing products with complicated shapes. Machining is used in the production of nozzle slide joints for high dimensional accuracy after metal powder injection molding. As design variables in this study, we investigated the sintering temperature, product stress, deformation rate, radius of curvature of the punch, and angle of the chamfer punch, which are related to the strain and shapes. The goal is to suggest a forming process using Nitronic 60 that does not require machining to manufacture a nozzle slide joint for a turbocharger. Accordingly, we determined the best process environment using finite-element analysis, the signal-noise ratio, and the Taguchi method for experiment design. The relative density and hydrostatic pressure of the final product were in accordance with the results of the finite element analysis. Therefore, we conclude that the Taguchi method can be applied to the design process of metal powder injection molding.

로켓모타의 연소관은 구조적인 편의성 및 경량화를 위하여 도옴-실린더부와 실린더-노즐부에 나사체결방법을 많이 적용하고 있는데, 나사의 골부위에 집중응력이 발생하여 인장강도를 넘는 응력이 발생하는 경우가 있다. 본 연구에서는 나사의 골부위의 응력수준을 좀 더 정확히 예측하기 위하여 나사체결시 작용하는 조립 토오크에 의한 초기하중을 고려한 구조해석을 수행하였으며, 나사부위에 발생하는 응력이 항복강도를 초과하므로 정확한 해석을 위하여 탄소성해석을 수행하였다. 조립 토오크에 의한 초기하중은 나사체결 멈춤부에 음(-)의 접촉 간극을 부여하여 모델링하였으며, 조립 토오크의 크기는 나사체결 근접부에서 변형률을 측정하여 모사하였다. 해석결과 초기하중을 고려하여 구조해석을 수행하면 최대예상 작동압력에서 초기하중의 영향은 거의 나타나지 않았으며, 마찰계수를 감소시키면 최대응력이 감소하여 구조적 안전성이 증가할 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this study is to document the secondary flow and the total pressure loss distribution in the contoured endwall installed linear turbine nozzle guide vane cascade passage and to propose an appropriate contraction ratio of the contoured endwall which shows the best loss reduction among the simulated cases. In this study, three different contraction ratio of contoured endwalls have been tested. This study was performed by experimental method and when the contoured endwall has the contraction ratio of 0.17 on exit height the results showed the best loss reduction.
