This study has been mainly motivated to numerically model the supercritical mixing and combustion processes encountered in the liquid propellant rocket engines. In the present approach, turbulence is represented by the extended $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model. To account for the real fluid effects, the propellant mixture properties are calculated by using SRK (Souve-Redlich-Kwong) equation of state. In order to realistically represent the turbulence-chemistry interaction in the turbulent nonpremixed flames, the flamelet approach based on the real fluid flamelet library has been adopted. Based on numerical results, the detailed discussions are made for the real fluid effects and the precise structure of gaseous methane/liquid oxygen coaxial jet flame.

Critical nozzle has been frequently employed to measure the flow rate of various gases, but hydrogen gas, especially being at high-pressure condition, was not nearly dealt with the critical nozzle due to treatment danger. According to a few experimental data obtained recently, it was reported that the discharge coefficient of hydrogen gas through the critical nozzle exceeds unity in a specific range of Reynolds number. No detailed explanation on such an unreasonable value was made, but it was vaguely inferred as real gas effects. For the purpose of practical use of high-pressure hydrogen gas, systematic research is required to clarify the critical nozzle flow of high-pressure hydrogen gas. In the present study, a computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method has been applied to predict the critical nozzle flow of high-pressure hydrogen gas. Redlich-Kwong equation of state that take account for the forces and volume of molecules of hydrogen gas were incorporated into the axisymmetric, compressible Navier-Stokes equations. A fully implicit finite volume scheme was used to numerically solve the governing equations. The computational results were validated with some experimental data available. The results show that the coefficient of discharge coefficient is mainly influenced by the compressibility factor and the specific heat ratio, which appear more remarkable as the inlet total pressure of hydrogen gas increases.

AC-PDP(Plasma Display Panel)에 사용하는 MgO 보호막의 이차전자 방출계수(${\gamma}$)는 AC-PDP의 방전특성을 결정짓는 중요한 요소이다. MgO 보호막의 이차전자 방출계수는 AC-PDP에 주입하는 기체의 종류에 영향을 받는다. 현재 AC-PDP에는 방전특성의 향상과 VUV 발생을 위하여 He, Ne, Ar, Xe 등의 비활성기체를 두가지 혹은 세가지로 혼합한 혼합기체가 사용되고 있다. 기체를 혼합할 경우 Penning 효과에 의해 더 좋은 방전특성을 얻을 수 있는 것으로 알려져 왔으며, 이때의 적절한 혼합비율을 찾는 것은 AC-PDP의 효율 개선에 매우 중요하다. 이번 실험에서는 (111), (100), (110) 각각의 방향으로 배향된 MgO Bulk Crystal과 MgO 보호막의 이차전자방출계수를 He+Ne+Xe 삼원기체를 사용하였다. MgO 보호막은 실제 21inch 규격의 Panel을 사용하였으며, 혼합기체의 혼합비율의 Ne:Xe을 99:1, 98:2, 96:4, 93:7과 He+Ne+Xe의 삼원기체로 다양하게 변화시켜 가며 실험하였다.

The reacting flows of gaseous hydrogen/liquid oxygen 2D coaxial shear injector with varying recess length are numerically analyzed. The standard ${\kappa}-e$ model and laminar flamelet model are adopted for the steady turbulent combustion with the ideal and real gas equations. As the recess length increases, the recirculating region in the combustion chamber expands and the vorticity is intensified. Also, the variations of temperature, products, and pressure are strongly related to the recess length. The results show that an efficient combustor can be obtained by the introduction of the recessed injector.

The definition of the speed of sound is reexamined since it is crucial in the numerical analysis of compressible real gas flows. The thermodynamic speed of sound (TSS), $a_{th}$, and the characteristic speed of sound (CSS), $a_{ch}$, are derived using generalized equation of state (EOS). It is found that the real gas EOS, for which pressure is not linearly dependent on density and temperature, results in slightly different TSS and CSS. in this formalism, Roe's approximate Riemann solver was derived again with corrections for real gases. The results show a little difference when the speeds of sound are applied to the Roe's scheme and Advection Upstream Splitting Method (AUSM) scheme, but a numerical instability is observed for a special case using AUSM scheme. It is considered reasonable to use of CSS for the mathematical consistency of the numerical schemes. The approach is applicable to multi-dimensional problems consistently.

본 연구에서는 양극의 two-phase simulation 모델을 확립하고 GDL 물성과 작동조건이 전지성능에 미치는 영향에 대해 시행하였다. 모델로는 Multi-phase $mixture(M^2)$ 모델을 사용하였는데 이 모델은 각 상의 balance식을 하나의 mixture-phase식으로 통합하여 수학적 계산이 용이할 뿐만 아니라 실제 전지 성능에 매우 근사하여 신뢰성성도 확보할 수 있었다. 최적의 GDL 구조와 작동조건을 규명하기 위해 기체투과도, 접촉각, 기공도, 기체 공급가스 차이에 따른 전지 성능 분석을 시행하였는데 그 결과 모든 파라미터들이 증가할수록 비례적으로 전지 성능이 증가하였다. 기체 공급가스>기공도>>접촉각>기체투과도 순으로 전지에 미치는 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다.

The performance of computer systems and the development of various computer simulation programs have made it possible to analyze chemical systems composed of more complex elements, and accordingly, research using molecular dynamics simulation is being actively conducted. Research on calculating the gas permeation characteristics of polymer membranes by molecular dynamics, which was previously conducted mainly through experiments, is receiving attention for gas barrier membranes used in food packaging and pharmaceuticals. Recently, there has been a report that a gas barrier effect appears when a coating film is made using silk fibroin, and in this study, a study was conducted using molecular dynamics simulation to confirm whether an oxygen barrier effect appears when a composite film is made using silk fibroin. We built a single model, calculated the gas permeation characteristics, and compared it with the experimental value to confirm that the model reflects the actual experimental results. Actual composite membrane models were then built and the gas movement path within the polymer was analyzed. As a result, oxygen molecules were found that they could not pass through and was blocked in the fibroin region. Therefore, the composite membrane with silk fibroin has excellent oxygen barrier property and is expected to be useful in food packaging, etc.

In this paper, a hardware implementation of gas flow meter for accuracy improvement and saving repair costs at a field is investigated. An adaptive filter using LMS algorithms for estimating cavity vibration frequencies in noisy environments is also studied. The proposed cavity gas flow meter measures cavity sound signals in gas flow tube using microphone and signal processing systems estimate the cavity vibration frequency from the measured signal. The flow velocity and flow quantity can be calculated using the estimated cavity vibration frequency. Since cavity vibration frequency is corrupted by the environmental noise, an adaptive filter using NLMS algorithms is used for cancelling the environmental noise. Experiments using 1MS32OC32 digital signal processor are performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed system.

Significant real fluid behaviors including rapid property changes take place where high pressure combustion devices such as rocket engines. The flamelet model is the reliable approach to account for the real fluid effects. In the present study, the flamelet equations are extended to treat the general fluids over transcritical and supercritical states. The real fluid flamelet model is carried out for the gaseous hydrogen and cryogenic liquid oxygen flames at the wide range of thermodynamic conditions. Based on numerical results, the precise discussions are made for effects of real fluid, pressure, and differential diffusion on the local flame structure.
