A methodology of design performance estimation for the supersonic impulse turbine was investigated. Relations of similarity condition and test nozzle area ratio were derived. Comparison of efficiencies between the turbines with real nozzle and test nozzle are made numerically and experimentally. The CFD results and test result confirmed that the turbine with test nozzle was able to predict real turbine performance. In addition, design performance of the supersonic impulse turbine also could be estimated using real nozzle in air-medium test. In this case, design efficiency was found at the pressure-ratio and velocity-ratio of similarity condition of test nozzle.

In this study, numerical simulations were performed for steady and unsteady state characteristics of length effects on linear pintle nozzles using the overset grid method. Nozzles and pintles are created separately by an auto grid generation program to use the overset grid method. Appropriate turbulent models and numerical methods are selected for the validation of simulations. Pintle shapes are chosen from five types, with differences in the ratio of length and diameter. The longer the pintle length, the greater the thrust and thrust coefficient. The chamber pressure tendency of steady-state and unsteady-state are different for various pintle velocities. The thrust of the nozzle exit responds to changes in the nozzle throat in the unsteady-state, and the speed of pressure propagation wave generated by movement of the pintle is considered to predict the major factor of performance.

In this study, an experimental study on the buildability of the structure using the developed printing materials and equipment was performed. Experimental variables included the moving speed of nozzles(=80 and 100mm/s), the revolutions per minute (RPM) of screw in discharge buckets, and the aspect ratio(=1.67 and 5.00) reflecting wall length of the structures. Buildability of the 3D printed concrete structures was analyzed based on the maximum decomposition layer and collapse patterns of the structures according to the experimental variables. The nozzle movement speed of 80mm/s and the aspect ratio of 1.67 were favorable for 3D printing in this study. The collapse process of structure due to uneven layer decomposition was also analyzed through the relative displacement measurement of the lower part of the structure during printing.

The study for the combustion characteristics of propellants for nozzleless boosters was carried out. The metal fuels of Al and Zr were introduced into solid propellant formulations in order to enhance the density-specific impulse and the high burning rate with low pressure exponent was investigated as the major combustion characteristic of propellant to design nozzleless boosters. The burning rate of Zr-containing propellant was higher than Al-containing propellant and, $13{\mu}m$ Zr-containing propellant exhibited the burning rate of 35 mm/s (at 1000 psi)and pressure exponent of 0.3282. The benefit of using Al and Zr-containing propellant into nozzleless boosters was demonstrated in these results.

Converging-diverging 노즐은 시스템 내부 유동에 적용되는 속도면적 법칙을 통해, 아음속 유동을 초음속으로 만드는 장치이며, 항공기 엔진 등에서 추력을 얻기 위해 쓰인다. 이상기체, 등 엔트로피를 가정한 동일 입구 조건에서, 출구로 빠져나오는 유동의 속도는 오직 면적 비에만 관계한다. 그러나 실제현상에서는, 출구에서의 유속이 유동의 압축성 효과 및 벽면에서의 전단력 등으로 인해 노즐 형상마다 상이한 결과를 낳는다. 본 연구에서는 EDISON Simulation을 활용하여 다양한 노즐 형상에 따른 출구에서의 Mach number를 구하고, 각각의 결과로부터 경향성을 찾는다. 또, 계산 결과를 이론식을 통해 도출되는 결과와 비교한다.

Design of velocity-compounded turbine for 75ton class LRE turbopump application and pressure compounded turbine for 30ton class LRE turbopump has been performed. 1D calculation and CFD analysis were conducted in determining blade and flow passage shape of velocity compounded turbine iteratively. Finally, 23.1% improved specific power and 5% reduced weight turbine to the original design was developed. In case of pressure-compounded supersonic turbine design, rotational speed was increased by 50% and the effect of carryover ratio, 2nd nozzle installation angle, leakage flow of 2nd nozzle, and work sharing factor was studied. Final 1D design resulted 36% increased specific power and 51% reduced weight comparing to the original single-row impulse turbine. It is anticipated that nozzle flow path design will be very important for the accomplishment of expected performance of pressure-compounded turbine and nozzle shape optimization will be conducted through the CFD analysis.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the characteristics of static and total pressure distribution in the upward free water jet system impinged on a downward flat plate. The rectangular nozzle was used and its contraction and aspect ratio was five and about seven respectively. Experimental conditions considered were jet velocity, distance between nozzle and flat plate, height of supplementary water. It was founded that pressure distribution on the flat plate had the Gaussian curve when the pressure at stagnation point and impinging half width were chosen as the scaling parameters. The maximum pressure was shown at the stagnation point. The central impingement velocity decreased with the increment of distance between nozzle and flat plate, and its slop of decay was similar to that of chracteristics decay region in the three-dimensional free jet.

본 연구에서는 층류 연소속도 측정을 노즐 버너로 형성된 분젠화염에서 각도법과 면적법을 이용하여 다양한 조성비를 갖는 합성가스의 층류 연소속도를 실험적으로 측정하였다. 수행된 연구의 합성가스 조성비는 $H_2:CO$ 비가 10:90%, 25:75%, 50:50%, 75:25%이며, 당량비는 이전 연구와의 비교를 위해 0.5에서 1.4까지 수행하였다. 측정된 층류 연소속도는 수행된 다양한 조성비와 당량비 범위에서 수치계산 결과와 타 연구자들의 실험 결과 값들과 잘 일치하였다. 본 연구에서도 층류 연소속도는 $H_2$ 함유량 증가와 함께 증가됨을 알 수 있었으며, 연소속도의 중요한 증가 현상은 당량비의 증가로 확인되었다.

고체 추진제 로켓의 연소시에 발생되는 산화 알루미늄(A1$_2$O$_3$) 입자는 로켓 추진 노즐에서 팽창과정의 효율을 저하시키는 요소가 되며, 이러한 비효율성은 연소 가스와 입자간의 비평형 상태 효과와 기본적인 속도와 열적 차이에 의해서 발생된다고 보고되었다. 또한 연소시 발생된 산화 알루미늄 입자는 높은 열과 큰 운동량을 가지고 로켓 노즐 내부를 유동하게 되며, 매우 많은 량이 짧은 시간에 고온 고속으로 노즐 벽면이나 기타 구조물에 충돌 및 점착하기 때문에 로켓 노즐내의 표면이 손상을 입게 되고, 로켓의 방향 제어 및 조정 안정성이 저하되며, 구조적인 강도가 약화 될 수 있다. 또한 산화 알루미늄 액적들의 경우 노즐 벽면에 고착되게 되면 로켓의 중량 증가로 인해서 추력의 손실을 초래할 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 연소 부산물들의 운동 경로와 충돌 위치 및 표면에서의 충돌량과 그리고 충돌에 따른 마모량 및 점착 그리고 열전달 특성을 예측하는 것이 필수적이다.

Experiments were performed in a two-phase swirling spray facility that has been described elsewhere. Measurements of spray transport and drop size distribution are analyzed over wide ranges of air to liquid mass flow ratios, utilizing four different internal mixing pneumatic nozzles. The spatial distributions of mean velocities. fluctuating velocities, and velocity-diameter correlation were quantitatively analyzed. Also, the exponential correlation curves were obtained with ALR along the spray centerline, which indicated an approximately identical formulation regardless of ALR. It indicated that the atomization characteristics were remarkably superior in the case of 30o of swirl angle with higher ALR. Among other things. nozzle configuration is one of the significant parameters affecting spray phenomena from an internal mixing nozzle. Turbulence intensities are increasingly degenerated with an increase of nozzle configuration, allowing a rapid increment of drop size distribution.
