A reliable computational solver has been developed for the analysis of three-dimensional inviscid compressible flows around a nacelle of a high bypass ratio turbofan engine, The numerical algorithm is based on the modified Godunov scheme to allow the second order accuracy for space variables, while keeping the monotone features. Two step time integration is used not only to remove time step limitation but also to provide the second order accuracy in a time variable. The multi-block approach is employed to calculate the complex flow field, using an algebraic, conformal, and elliptic method. The exact solution of Riemann problem is used to define boundary conditions. The accuracy of the developed solver is validated by comparing its results around the isolated nacelle in the cruise flight regime with the solution obtained using a commercial code "RAMPANT. "

This paper describes the aerodynamic interference characteristics between the ing and the engines in a commercial airplane which is realized by reverse engineering based on the photo measurement. Steady three-dimensional compressible inviscid Euler equation is solved in the unstructured grid system under the cruise condition. The lift and drag forces in the wing with engines increase by 1.49% and 3.9%, respectively compared with the wing without engines.

An Euler-based CFD tool has been developed for the performance evaluation of a thrust reverser mounted on a high bypass ratio turbofan engine. The computational domain surrounded by the ground and non-reflection boundary includes the whole nacelle configuration with a deployed thrust reverser. The numerical algorithm is based on the modified Godunovs scheme to allow the second order accuracy in both space and time. The grid system is generated by using eleven multi-blocks, of which the total cell number is 148,400. The thrust reverser is modeled as if it locates at the nacelle simply in all circumferential direction. The existence of a fan and an OGV(Outlet Guide Vane) is simulated by adopting the actuator disk concept, in which predetermined radial distributions of stagnation pressure ratio and adiabatic efficiency coefficient are used for the rotor type disk, and stagnation pressure losses and flow outlet angles for the stator type disk. All boundary conditions including the fan and OGV simulation are treated by Riemann solver. The developed solver is applied to a turbofan engine with a bypass ratio of about 5.7 and the diameter of the fan cowl of 83 inch. The computational results show that the Euler-based inviscid method is very useful and economical to evaluate the performance of thrust reversers.

In this study a turboshaft engine for a helicopter propulsion system was modeled using SIMULINK and the components' maps were generated from the limited performance deck data provided by engine supplier using a hybrid method with the genetic algorithms and the system identification method. In order to verify the SIMULINK performance model and the component maps generated by the hybrid method, the steady-state performance analysis results were compared with the performance data provided by engine manufacturer. In this investigation, it was confirmed that the analysis results by the proposed model are closely met with those by engine manufacturer's data.

This paper describes the design of a space-division switch which can support a self-healing operation of 2-fiber bidirectional line switched ring in 2.5Gb/s SDH-based transmission system. The switch having a 1.25Gb/s throughput has been designed and implemented with COMPASS tool and 0.87$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS gate-array. The proposed switch is suitable for the quickly self-healing operations when a failure occurs in a 2-fiber bidirectional switched ring composed of ADM transmission systems. The switch is composed of an add/drop control part, a cross-point switch, a frame-phase aligner, processor interface and an unequipped data framer. The test results of the switch adapted to 2.SGb/s SDH-based transmission system, show immediate restoration when a failure occurs.

A steady-state performance simulation program using $EASY5^{(R)}$ on the turboprop engine was developed through in this study. The PT6A-62 turboprop engine which is the power plant of the first Korean basic trainer KT-1, was selected for this study. In order to evaluate the proposed perfrmance model the analysis results of $EASY5^{(R)}$ model were compared with the simulated results by the GASTURB program, which is well blown commercially for the simulation performance analysis at various cases. The first case was the uninstalled condition with various altitudes from ground to 30000ft and flight Mach No. 0. The second case was the install condition with various altitude from ground to M at the maximum take off and the ECS (Environmental Control System) OFF conditions. The third case was install condition with the altitude range from 5000 ft to 1000ft and Mach No. 0.1 to 0.3 at maximum ECS operating condition. It was confirm that the results by the $EASY5^{(R)}$ model were well agreed with those by GASTURB within maximum 5.0%
