It was examined that start-up characteristics of a staged combustion cycle engine powerpack. Among various parameters, valve opening time was considered as a main factor affecting the start-up characteristics. Using monte-carlo method, characteristics variation was analyzed when the valve opening time deviates from the nominal value. As a result, the main fuel valve opening time and the start turbine ending time were significant associated with the startup characteristics. When separating main fuel valve opening time and start turbine stop time, main fuel valve opening time was an important factor. For stable operation, the main fuel valve opening time must be set one second before after driving the start turbine. Likewise, it was confirmed that the startup analysis can suggest an appropriate startup sequence for a stable startup.

In this study, it was investigated that the characteristics of startup and compatibility using several type hot and cold gases. The characteristics of starting LRE by pyro starter was compared with that by a Helium spinner. The compatibility of pyro gas, a gaseous Helium, Hydrogen+Nitrogen mixture gas, and air was investigated by a simple 1D turbine analysis considered the properties of each gas and turbine efficiency. Most of them were compatible to start up the LRE however air was properly used only for low power mode of turbine.

In this study, it was investigated that the characteristics of startup and compatibility using several type hot and cold gases. The characteristics of starting LRE by pyro starter was compared with that by a He spinner. The compatibility of pyre gas, a gaseous He, H2+N2 mixture gas, and air was investigated by a simple 1D turbine analysis considered the properties of each gases and turbine efficiency. Most of them were compatible to start up the LRE but air was properly used only when the turbine was low power mode.

One dimensional transient analysis was studied for turbopump-fed liquid propellant rocket engine(LRE) system in starting using AMESim. The effects of timing of gas generator fuel valve opening and gas generator ignition to start-up stability were researched for open cycle type system using LOX/RP-1 to propellants. Result show that the parameters and sequence on start-up should be considered to design optimized turbopump-fed LRE system.

Engine test as well as unload test of starting motor itself was performed to evaluate the braking characteristics of starting system used for initial spin-up of gas turbine for power generation. Through the experimental evaluation of the braking performance with the capacity of braking resistor of the starting motor, we have achieved quantitative data to secure robust braking characteristics in emergency during the starting period of the gas turbine. It is possible to establish a capacity selection criterion of braking resistor to ensure the starting reliability of the gas turbine.

This paper includes a development of a starting time prediction model for a derivative engine. For this derivative engine design, a new map expansion method, Modified Pump Scaling Law(MPS), has been applied and expand the maps to sub-idle range. From loss characteristics of the reference engine, loss models for the derivative engine have been developed considering different pressure, temperature, and engine configurations. Starting time predictions of the derivative engine shows preferable results comparing test results.

For gas turbine engine starting, external power should be supplied with engine to accelerate to suitable rotational speed for air and fuel ignition conditions. Electric starting system for small gas turbine engine has simple system and light weight, so it is generally used for small aircraft. For system analysis of gas turbine engine electric starting system, Characteristics of battery, start motor, engine drag torque should be analyzed and theirs temperature effects should be considered. In this paper, preliminary design procedure of small gas turbine engine electric starting system and major design parameters were described.

디이젤기관의 냉시동성이 가솔린기관에 비하여 떨어지는 것은 이미 우리가 알고 있는 사실이다. 근년에는 소형트럭, 승용차, 소형건설기계 등의 분야에 있어서도 고속디이젤기관을 널리 사용하게 되었고 앞으로 디이젤연료의 중질화 및 세탄가 저하의 영향 등을 고려할 경우 시동성의 확보는 더욱 중요한 문제로 된다. 시동성에 영향을 미치는 인자 혹은 시동성개선의 방책으로서는 분 무의 착화에 직접 관련되는 것 외에 축전지의 저온특성 혹은 기관의 마찰토오크 등 여러가지에 걸쳐 있으나 이들 중에서 특히 분무의 착화에 직접 관련되는 방책에 관해서는 그것이 시동성에 미치는 영향에만 그치는 것이 아니고 시동개시직후에 있어서 배출가스, 혹은 출력성능 등에 미 치는 영향에 대해서도 함께 고려를 하여야 할 경우가 있다. 본고에 있어서는 냉시동시의 분무의 착화에 대하여 직접 관련하거나 그것을 촉진시킨다고 생각되는 몇개의 인자와 구체적인 방책을 취급하므로써 그것들이 시동성 및 시동직후의 청백연 혹은 출력성능 등에 대하여 미치는 영향에 대해서 기술하며 아래에서 취급되는 시동시의 착화를 촉진하기 위한 실제적인 인자 및 방책은 어느 것이나 기본적으로는 하나의 개념에 집약된다. 즉 그것은 연표와 효소로부터 이루어지는 연소계에 있어서 착화조건을 갖추어야함을 말할 것도 없다.

In this study, the start-up characteristics of a staged combustion engine were analyzed numerically based on relational equation modeling of the entire engine components. The start-up characteristics were extensively analyzed considering the transient period of the total engine system from the start-up sequence till the steady-state of the engine. The performance characteristics of the engine components such as RPM of engine power-pack, chamber pressure and O/F ratio of pre-burner, and mass flow of propellants in the start-up period were investigated. Furthermore, the calculated engine data were compared satisfactorily with the experimental data. Through the comparison of data, successful validation of present engine start-up analysis has been obtained.

본 논문은 입력전압 파형을 각각 같은 크기의 정현파, 구형파, 삼각파로 변화시켰을 때, 형광램프의 시동특성ㅇㄹ 어떻게 달라지는 지에 대해 비교 설명한 논문이다. 구형파가 입력으로 주어질 때 램프의 시동특성은 현저하게 떨어져, 시동전압이 크게 상승하는 것을 볼 수 있었으며, 삼각파의 경우는 대체적으로 정현파 입력과 거의 동일한 특성을 나타냈다.
