In this study, experimental studies were performed the combustion characteristics of end- burning hybrid propulsion system. PMMA, PE were used as fuel and gas oxygen as oxidizer. The regression rate depend on oxidizer flow rate also on thermodynamic properties of fuel. as result, empirical formula for regression rate was deduces with oxidizer flow rate and mass transfer coefficient B number.

Ejector system can induce the secondary flow or affect the secondary chamber pressure by both shear stress and pressure drop which are generated in the primary jet boundary. Ejectors are widely used in a range of applications such as a turbine-based combined-cycle propulsion system and a high altitude test facility for rocket engine, pressure recovery system, desalination plant and ejector ramjet etc. The primary interest of this study is to set up an design procedure on the configuration and operating condition of multi-ejector for the various high altitude simulation.

To develop liquid propulsion engine, the development of combustion chamber must be preceded. For performance validation of the combustion chamber, the designed and manufactured combustion chamber should be tested in combustion chamber test facility (CCTF). The CCTF is the test facility to develop the combustor of rocket engine, which uses liquid oxygen as a oxidizer and kerosene as a fuel. Present paper introduces the detailed design results of compressed gas supply system of CCTF, which is planned to be installed at Naro Space Center.

The oxidizer-rich preburner is applied to the high efficiency closed cycle rocket propulsion system. This system is generally operated on oxidizer-fuel mixture ratio over than 50. The spray quality and mixing performance are very important for stable combustion of this preburner. This paper presents basic design concept and spray characteristic of the oxidizer-rich preburner injector and this result could be applied to the development of the oxidizer rich preburner system.

Combustion Characteristic with initial port-diameter of fuel was studied in hybrid propulsion system using cylindrical single port-grain. In order to understand a variation of combustion characteristic with initial port-diameter, experimental studies were performed with the GOX and $GN_2O$ as oxidizer, and PE as fuel. As results, burning rate decreased with increase of initial port-diameter of fuel. And the variation of burning rate with using $GN_2O$ is smaller than using GOX.

The result of design review and arrangement of a combustion chamber test facility(CTF) and a turbo-pump real propellant test facility(TPTF) is briefly described. The development/qualification tests of combustion chamber and turbo-pump for 75ton-class liquid rocket engine will be performed in CTF and TPTF. The critical design of hydraulic-pneumatic system, control and data acquisition system, test stand cell, and auxiliary facilities in CTF and TPTF was performed.

In this paper, the regression rate of the End-Burning Hybrid Rocket with variation of swirl intensity was investigated experimentally with the variation of fuel diameter, injector shape and angle. When fuel grain diameter is large, fuel mass flow rate increases. And the injector diameter increase, fuel regression rate decrease. The impinging effect of oxidizer flow on fuel surface for fuel combustion efficiency is stronger than swril effect in this End-burning propulsion system. The relation between the regression rate, oxidizer mass flux and swirl intensity was obtained.

The development of a turbopump is fundamental to have an independent LRE(liquid rocket engine) for KSLV-II. Recently, the detail design of a turbopump real-propellant test facility based on liquid oxygen and kerosene has been performed to structure the test facility for the experimental validation of the turbopump. In this paper, the design requirements of the turbopump and the specifications of the test facility was presented and the representative sub-facilities were explained on the basis of the design results. Also, the uncertainty of the sub-facilities which could be appeared during the operation was removed in advance through the simulation method and the experimental verification.

We developed an engine system design program by balancing the pressure-mass-power relation which can be acquired from each component's specification. In gas generator type open-cycle rocket engine system it is possible to distinguish the variables into two categories, which are input variables and requirement variables. We define 11 design variables corresponding to the 11 balance equations as functions of pressure, mass and power of target engine system. We solved these equations by Newton method. As an example we designed gas generator cycle engine system and finally we could conclude that this developed program is well suited to the engine system design.
