The sequence of the propellant supply is very important for the reliable and safe operation of a LRE combustion test. So combustion performance tests were performed to find an optimum test sequence by changing supply time of propellants and purge gas in the moment of ignition and extinction. The liquid rocket engine consisted of a catalytic ignitor and six swirl-coaxial injectors which used hydrogen peroxide and kerosene. Conclusively, an optimum sequence was found for stable combustion in the moment of ignition and extinction.

This article deals with the introduction of longitudinal instability of liquid rocket (pogo) and the analytical results on the frequency responses of Korean Sounding Rocket (KSR-III) propulsion feeding system. Both the stiffness of bellows and the cavitation volume of venturi affect the frequency response of the feeding system. Especially, bellows has a great roll to reduce the natural frequency of the feeding system. Also, oxidizer and fuel feeding systems of the KSR-III have natural frequencies of about 280Hz and 90Hz, respectively.

Liquid rocket propulsion test facility should provide for the interface condition installed on the upper level system for the test article. In addition, safety provision should be provided to be ready for accident such as explosion which can be occurred during development stage. For this purpose infra-structures of test facilities must be constructed so that stable combustion test can be performed and be guard against accidents. In this article, various aspects for infrastructures of propulsion test facilities are investigated including architecture and civil engineering aspects, test stand, room arrangements, interfaces among facilities, fire-fighting facilities, electrical power facilities.

It is essential to develop a transient engine system analysis model for turbopump fed type liquid rocket engine development, especially for deriving engine system test number and conditions. In this study, we proposed a mathematical model of turbopump fed type liquid rocket engine, and inspected transient mode changes around the nominal thrust level of a rocket engine according to variations of trust control valve's opening ratio. To verify the results, we solved the same problem with AnaSyn software from Russia, and concluded that the transient code showed the similar results within $2\%$ with AnaSyn.

Propellant pressurization system in liquid rocket propulsion system plays a role in supplying pressurant gas at a controlled pressure into the ullage space of propellant tanks. The most important design parameter for such propellant pressurization system is the temperature of pressurant gas fed from pressurant tank, which is placed inside of cryogenic propellant tank. Such pressurant is gaseous state, of which density is very sensitive to the temperature of pressurant. Previous investigation dealt with thermal correlation of pressurant and external fluid at room temperature. This study investigates the temperature variation of cryogenic pressurant (GHe) at the time when the pressurant is coming out of pressurant tank, which is submerged in a liquid oxygen, experimentally as well as numerically.

A study was conducted to investigate safe testing on propulsion system, especially concentrated on effects of contaminants accumulation and transfer in LOX system. Several methods for system operation decreasing accidents caused by oxidizer leakage and contaminants accumulation was investigated. These methods can be applied to LOX system and other propellants system in liquid propellants propulsion system.

우리 나라의 로켓관련 기술은 '70년대 중반 방위 산업측면에서 군사용로켓개발과 함께 출발하였으며, 현시점에서 보면 약 30년 가까운 개발경험을 갖고 있다. 그러나 로켓관련 기술은 주로 시스템 중심의 설계기술 위주로 기술이 확보되었고 개발비용이 많이 드는 핵심소재 및 부품은 선진국에서 구입하여 사용하는 형태로 개발이 추진되었기 때문에 국내발사체개발을 위한 핵심기술의 확보가 부족한 실정에있다.
