Performance test was conducted by micro gas turbine engine. A small test rig was established for the performance measurement of the micro gas turbine engine. The performance was conducted by the Olympus HP engine. Engine inlet mass flow rate, static thrust, fuel consumption rate, air and gas temperature at the inlet of major components were measured. In the test results, we could well understand about the micro gas turbine engine performance characteristics.

본 논문에서는 소형 어선의 전기 시스템을 DC 마이크로그리드의 관점에서 설계하고, 선박의 동력원인 엔진-발전기를 가변속 제어함으로써 선박 전력 계통의 효율을 개선하고자 한다. 선박 전력 계통은 물리적으로 육지 계통과 분리된 마이크로그리드의 형태를 갖추고 있다. 때문에 소형 기계 추진 어선의 경우, 추진을 위한 엔진뿐만 아니라 추가적으로 선내 전력을 공급하기 위한 엔진-발전기를 갖출 필요가 있다. 이에 반해 전기 추진 어선은 하나의 엔진-발전기 세트로 추진과 선내 전력 공급이 모두 가능하다. 하지만 어선이 정지 상태에서 조업을 할 때에 전력 부하량이 작기 때문에 엔진의 저부하 운전 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이를 해결하기 위하여, DC마이크로그리드를 어선에 적용하여 엔진 가변속을 적용하고자 한다. 통상적으로 20% 내외의 부하율로 운용되는 엔진에 가변속 제어를 적용하면 20% 이상의 연비 개선 효과를 기대할 수 있다. 이러한 DC마이크로그리드 어선의 연비 개선 효과를 항해와 조업으로 구분하여 시뮬레이션을 통해 예측하였다.

Micro turbojet engine test and infrared signal measurement were conducted to understand the characteristics of the engine performance and infrared signal with the variants of the exhaust nozzle configuration. A cone type nozzle and five rectangle type nozzles which has aspect ratio from one to five were used for the experimental work. The results show that there are not much difference between cone and rectangle nozzles of the thrust and specific fuel consumption. However infrared signal from exhaust gas become smaller as increasing aspect ratio.

Infrared signal and exhaust gas temperature distribution with bypass ratio were measured using a micro turbojet engine. Micro turbojet engine was modified to simulate the turbofan engine behaviour. Core flow was simulated using the jet flow of the micro turbojet engine, and high-pressure air was supplied to its external duct to simulate bypass flow. The effects of bypass ratios (0.5, 1.0, and 1.4) were examined. The experimental results indicate that the infrared signal decreases as the bypass ratio increases. And also gas temperature decreases with bypass ratios. Additionally, Schlieren visualization of the exhaust gas plume was conducted. From the exhaust gas temperature distribution and Schlieren images, the structure of jet plume with various bypass ratios was understood.

Infrared signal measurement are conducted from a micro-turbo jet engine with different nozzle configurations. The conventional cone type, a S-shaped type with aspect ratio 5.2 and five rectangular type nozzle with different aspect ratios are used for this experiment work. The result show that infrared signal from the exhaust gas decrease as the aspect ratio increase. In case of S-shaped nozzle, the maximum infrared signal is reduced about 28.4% when compared of rectangular nozzle with aspect ratio 5(AR5).

It is essential to understand the characteristics of gas turbine components in order to carry out an off-design analysis of a gas turbine engine. In this study, a micro gas turbine engine test system was constructed to understand the performance characteristics of gas turbines. The temperature and pressure in the flow path of the micro gas turbine was collected by measuring the engine spool speed, and a compressor map was constructed by using the experimental data. The exhaust gas was collected at the turbine outlet and the combustion efficiency was calculated. An off-design performance analysis at ground static was performed using GasTurb software by applying the compressor map and combustion efficiency obtained from the experimental data. Futhermore, we compared and evaluated the analysis results with engine operating data.

Micro engine that includes Micro scale combustor is fabricated. Design target was focused on the observation of combustion driven actuation in MEMS scale. Combustor design parameters are somewhat less than the size recommended by feasibility test. The engine structure is fabricated by isotropic etching of the photosensitive glass wafers. Electrode is formed by electroplating of the Nickel. Photosensitive glass can be etched isotropically with almost vertical angle. Bonding and assembly of structured photosensitive glass wafer from the engine. Combustor size was determined to be 1mn scale. Piston in cylinder moves by fuel injection and reaction. In firing test, adequate engine operation including ignition, flame propagation and piston motion was observed. Present study warrants further application research on MEMS scale internal combustion power units.
