액체로켓 추진제 공급장치에 정착된 캐비테이션 벤튜리의 유량 제어 특성을 해석하였다. 해석에는 실험과 수치해석이 병행되었으며 캐비테이션이 존재하는 유동에서 두 결과의 유량 차이는 약 10%로 나타났다. 벤튜리 상류의 압력을 $22.8{\times}10^5$pa로 일정하게 유지하고 하류의 압력을 변동시켰을 때 $3{\times}10^5$pa 이상의 압력 차이에 대하여 유량이 증가하지 않음을 확인하였다. 비응축 기체의 농도 변화에 의하여 벤튜리 내부에 발생하는 증기의 분포는 크게 달라지지만 유량은 같은 수준이 유지되어 비응축 기체의 농도가 1.5PPM에서 150PPM로 커질 경우, 유량이 약 2% 감소하였다. 이는 작동유체가 포함하고 있는 비응축 기체의 팽창과 생성된 증기가 압력 회복을 저해하는 영향이 유사하기 때문으로 풀이된다.

Although the cone type venturi flow meter is superior to another differential pressure type flow meter in precision, the venturi is installed at the pipe as an L beam, so that the dynamic load due to drag force and flow-induced force is generated in the flow meter. In this paper we propose a methodology to evaluate this dynamic load directly by using stain-gages attached on the venturi and we discuss about the dynamic characteristics on the basis of flow-induced vibration theory.

In the paper, a study on the analysis of fouling effect of the venturi flowmeter is described. In the research flow field solutions about the venturi flowmeter with fouling are obtained and then the effects on fouling states by inserting a ring into the throat of venturi flowmeter are studied. As the result shows, it is found that the inserted ring reduces the fouling effect due to the flow separation occurring at the ring. Consequently, a venturi flowmeter with ring shows smaller pressure loss differences than the original configuration with no ring on fouling state. This research suggests an efficient and economic method of inserting a ring to reduce the pressure loss effects due to fouling.

The differential pressure venturi-cone flowmeter is an advanced flowmeter which has many advantages such as wide range of measurement, high accuracy, excellent flow turn-down ratio, low headless, short installation pipe length requirement, and etc. Like other differential pressure flowmeters, the venturi-cone flowmeter uses the law of energy conservation, but its shape and position make it perform better than others. The cone acts as its own flow conditioner and mixer, fully conditioning and mixing the flow prior to measurement. For the analysis, we used Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes equations and k-$\omega$ turbulence model. The equations were fully transformed into the computational domain, the pressure-velocity coupling was made through SIMPLER algorithm, and the equations were discretized using finite analytic solutions of the liberalized equations(Finite Analytic Method). To control the separation phenomenon on the cone surface, we proposed a new shape of cone, and analyzed the flowfield in the new flowmeter system, and found the improvement on the performance of the new cone flowmeter.

Characteristics of flow rate control has been studied for a cavitating venturi adopted in a liquid rocket propellant feed system. Numerical simulation has been peformed to give about $10\%$ discrepancy of mass flow rate to the experimental data for cavitating flow regime. Mass flow rate is confirmed to be saturated for pressure difference higher than $3\times10^5$pa when the upstream pressure is fixed to $22.8\times10^5$pa and the downstream pressure is varied. The evaporation amount depends substantially to non-condensable gas concentration. However the mass flow rate characteristic is relatively insensitive to the mass fraction of non-condensable gas. So it is reduced by only $2\%$ when the non- condensable gas concentration is increased from 1.5PPM to 150PPM. From the previous comparison the expansions of the non-condensable gas and the evaporation of liquid are verified to have same effect to pressure recovery.
