A mixed-type turbine was adopted and the rotor outer diameter was 108 mm. Turbine rotors were designed to the axial-type blade because the turbine operated at a low partial admission rate of 1.7-2.0% with two stages. Performance characteristics were studied when the spouting from the nozzle was toward radially inward or outward direction. Additionally, the effect at each stage of the rotor was measured. For comparing with each turbine performance, properties were measured based on various rotational speeds. Measured net specific torque was used to compare with the turbine system performance. On the mixed-type turbine, better performance was obtained when the operating air spouted toward radially inward direction. The specific torque was increased by 7.8% from using the second stage although its effect depended on the rotational speed.

A numerical method for prediction of the Windmilling start performance of micro-turbojet engine has been developed. The method incorporates the available loss correlations and analyses for the estimation of the performance of the major engine components. It has been applied to the micro turbojet engine with the mixed type compressor. The starting performance characteristics on the on/off-design regions have been analysed. Additionally, the sensitivity of each design parameter which has an effect on Windmilling start performance has been analysed.

In the present paper, a transonic mixed-flow compressor that has relatively lower frontal area than that of centrifugal compressors is discussed, and aerodynamic design as well as performance prediction are performed. Main design constraints are compressor exit Mach number of 0.3 and flow angle of 30degrees at the design point, and maximum overall compressor diameter of 177mm, that is 7.0inch. The mass flow rate of design point and pressure ratio are 1.05kg/s and 5.2:1, respectively. The aerodynamic design results show that the transonic compressor designed with forward-swept inducer and curved diffuser can have the target performance with efficiency of 75% within the given constraints. And the compressor exit flow characteristics are discussed here.

Centrifugal pump shows the strongest secondary flow. Wake is formed near pressure surface close to hub at impeller exit for centrifugal pump impeller. Pressure gradient drives secondary flow in the inducer region, while in the remaining region the following sources drive together: > Pressure gradient > Coriolis force Low-momentum fluid near suction surface hub moves toward pressure surface hub in mixed-flow pump impeller. Tip leakage vortex dominate secondary flow in axial-flow pump impeller. Tip leakage vortex dominate secondary flow in axial-flow in axial-flow pump impeller

A numerical method based on the prediction of total pressure loss of major components of the engine has been developed for prediction of the windmilling start performance of micro-turbojet engine. The start performance in on/off design region has been analysed by applying this method to predict windmilling start-able regions of the centrifugal-type engine. The results of this analysis have been validated by comparing with the test data. The effect of each design parameters on windmilling start performance has been analysed for the enlargement of start-able regions.

An analysis was conducted to predict the hydraulic performance of a reactor coolant pump (RCP) of SMART at the off-design as well as design points. In order to reduce the analysis time efficiently, a single passage containing an impeller and a diffuser was considered as the computational domain. A stage scheme was used to perform a circumferential averaging of the flux on the impeller-diffuser interface. The pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the pump was determined and was used to compute the head, efficiency, and break horse power (BHP) of a scaled-down model under conditions of steady-state incompressible flow. The predicted curves of the hydraulic performance of an RCP were similar to the typical characteristic curves of a conventional mixed-flow pump. The complex internal fluid flow of a pump, including the internal recirculation loss due to reverse flow, was observed at a low flow rate.

출구부 수심을 결정하는 것은 개수로 흐름을 해석하는 데 매우 중요하면서도 쉽지 않은 일이다. 출구부 수심을 결정하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 정확한 관측이 선행되어야 한다. 그러나 종종 그 형상이 복잡하고 부정확한 관측결과를 가져오는 경우도 있다. 이 때문에 본연구진은 보다 더 효과적으로 마찰계수와 출구부 수심을 결정하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 출구부 수심은 그 흐름 특성에 따라 상류일 경우에는 임계수심, 사류일 경우에는 등류수심과 거의 일치하며 이를 통해 출구부 수심을 양해적으로 산정하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 양해식은 관측된 '정류수심'자료를 통해 개발 및 검증되었으며, 여기서 정류수심은 하수관의 출구부에서부터 대략 관경의 0.7배 정도 떨어진 지점을 중심으로 형성되는 수심을 가리킨다.

여수로는 방류량 월류시 한계류 상태와 고유속의 사류상태가 복합적으로 일어나는 흐름형태를 가지고 있어 여수로의 방류능력에 대한 평가시 수치해석 및 수리모형 실험을 통해 검증하고 있다. 여수로의 방류능력은 여수로 월류부 전면부 바닥고, 월류부 상 하류 경사, 월류웨어고 뿐만 아니라 교대 및 교각의 형상에 의해 영향을 받는다. 또한 월류웨어부를 지나 사류의 흐름양상을 보이는 천이부의 형상 및 후면 교각의 연장에 따라서도 급경사수로부의 흐름이 급변하게 된다. 국내 대부분의 여수로는 전면부의 교각(Pier)형상이 구조적인 안정성을 이유로 직벽형 설계방법을 일반적으로 채택하고 있으며 국내 및 미개척국(USBR)의 설계기준 또한 여수로 교각과 교대부의 평면 형상만을 고려할 수 있도록 제시하고 있어 국내 대부분의 수리 구조물들이 획일적인 구조물 형상을 벗어나지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 수치 및 수리모형 실험을 통해 국내 대댐에 설계되어 있는 직벽형태와 본 연구에서 제시하고 있는 켄틸러버형의 교각형상에 따른 여수로의 수리적 흐름양상 및 방류능력을 비교하여 그 효과를 검토하였다. 검토결과 켄틸러버형태의 교각이 설치된 여수로의 경우 직벽형에 비하여 전면부 수위상승 및 흐름교란이 적게 발생하였으며, 방류능력 또한 개선되는 결과를 나타내었고, 후면 교각의 연장이 길고 점차 축소될수록 급경사수로부의 흐름이 안정적인 것으로 나타났다.
