The system performance of the regenerative gas-turbine cycle with the steam injection into the combustor has been studied through the thermodynamic cyclic analysis. The effects of the pressure ratio, the steam injection ratio, the ambient temperature, and the turbine inlet temperature are investigated on the thermal efficiency, the fuel consumption, and the specific power as well as the operating conditions for the maximum thermal efficiency of the system. The results of the present analysis find that the use of steam injection in the regenerative gas-turbine system can greatly enhance the thermal efficiency and the specific power of the system.

다목적으로 활용할 수 있는 분리축 방식의 터보축 엔진 개발을 위한 정상상태 해석 프로그램의 개발과 함께 동일 형식의 가스터빈엔진 시험장치를 이용한 실험을 통해 프로그램의 해석결과와 비교, 그 타당성을 입증하였다. 실험에 이용된 시험장치는 1단 원심형 압축기, Can형 연소기, 1단 Radial형 압축기 터빈 및 동력터빈으로 구성되어 있으며 출력은 3상 교류발전기를 통해 획득된다. 해석에 사용된 주요 구성품의 성능곡선은 시험장치 제작자로부터 획득된 자료를 이용하였으며, 경우에 따라 시험장치를 이용한 실험을 통하여 보정하였다. 시험장치를 이용한 실험결과를 프로그램 해석결과와 비교한 결과, 시험장치의 운용제한에 의해 실제 자동영역이 제한되기는 했으나, 압력비, 출력 등 주요 변수들에서 10% 미만의 오차를 보였다.

In this research, a molecular dynamics system was designed and developed to calculate trajectories of molecules in nozzles and turbin blades. The Lennard-Jones potential model was used to approximate the interaction between a pair of molecules and the Verlet integration is used as a numerical method to integrate Newton's equations of motion. To compute Lennard-Jones potential functions, for the number of molecules N, the computation complexity $O(N^2)$ for interactions of all pairs of molecules is reduced to O(N) by using cutoff radius $r_c$. This was implemented to save CPU times.

엔진 배기가스의 동력과 유량이 배기행정의 직전 단계에서 관찰되었다. 배기가스 양을 적당히 조정함으로써 터보 과급의 입구 압력을 증가시킬 수 있었으며 엔진의 흡기, 소기 및 배기과정에서 가스질량과 엔진의 동력, 그리고 터보과급 효과도 감소하였다. 터보 과급장치를 기하학적으로 적절화시킴으로써 싸이클의 동기화 및 동력의 효율이 고려된 열교환 과정의 효율 기준도 제기되었으며 디젤엔진의 연소싸이클을 재수정하는 과정과 터빈의 동역학적 특성도 제시되었다.

Hydrodynamic aspects on three-dimensional effects were investigated in this study for simple and convenient conversion of tidal stream energy using a Vertical-Axis Turbine (VAT). Numerical approach was made to reveal the differences of flow physics between 2-D estimation and rigorous 3-D simulation. It was shown that the 3-D effects were dominant mainly due to the variation of tip vortices around the tip region of rotor blade, causing the loss of lift for steadily translating hydrofoil and the reduction of torque for rotating turbine blade. The 3-D effect was found to be rather prominent for the typical VATs considered in this paper. Simple and yet efficient 2-D approach with the correction of its three-dimensionality was also proposed for practical design and analysis of VAT.

Range extenders, which are power generation systems driven by small engines, extend the driving distance and time of electric vehicles (EVs) through continuous charging of batteries. The currently used range extenders with gasoline engines pose limitations with regard to the realization of high-power compact systems, owing to their complex structure and low energy density. In contrast, micro gas turbine (MGT) range extenders (MGT power packs) possess high power and low weight, and can therefore be significantly reduced in size despite increase in speed. In this study, an MGT power pack for the range extenders of EVs was developed using a turbo-prop micro turbine, an alternator for passenger vehicles and electric batteries. The operating characteristics of the MGT power pack were measured through a series of experiments conducted under electrical no-load and load conditions. Their power generation performance and efficiency were measured under various electrical loads and power transmission gear ratios. From the results, electrical load was found to have no influence on power generation performance. The maximum electrical power output was 0.8 kW at a core turbine speed of 150 krpm, and the application of 3:1 reduction gear to the turbine output shaft increased the power to 1.5 kW by 88%. This implies that the test results demonstrated stable power generation performance of the MGT power pack regardless of vehicle load changes, thus revealing its feasibility for use with the range extenders of EVs.

The steady-state performance analysis program for turboprop engine which was used for a small, middle industrial aircraft and a basic trainer aircraft was developed and linear Gas Path Analysis method was applied to Engine Health Monitoring for Turboprop engine. This program was compared with TURBOMARCH program which is well known with performance and power according to flight Mach No. at the standard atmospheric condition to prove a steady-state performance analysis program. From the result, inlet, exit temperature and pressure of each component had error within 3% and especially power according to flight Mach No. had error within 2.4% so that this program could be assured. To make sure if linear Gas Path Analysis is reasonable four cases were selected. The first is the case that fouling is occurred in compressor only. The second is the case that fouling is occurred in compressor and erosion is occurred in turbine. The third is the case that erosion is occurred in both compressor and turbine and power turbine at the same time. Finally, the case that fouling and erosion are occurred in compressor, compressor turbine and power turbine was selected. Different parameters were selected impartially among the independent parameters so that the effect of measurement parameter selection was observed. From the result, the more measurement parameters the smaller RMS error and even though the number of measurement parameters was the same, the RMS error was obtained differently according to which measurement parameters were selected. The case using eight instrument parameters of case IV-4 had small error comparably and was economic and it was important to select optimal number of measurement and optimal measurement parameters.
