An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effect of film cooling in the lab-scale dump-cooled liquid rocket engine using LOX and kerosene as propellants. The nozzle of the rocket engine was film cooled with water as coolant. A special film cooling adapter was fabricated to introduce the film-coolant into the thrust chamber. The flow rates of film coolant was approximately 15~19 percent of the total propellant. The nozzle heat flux was determined from the measured temperature rise and flow rate of the coolant(water). Large reductions in the nozzle heat flux was resulted when film cooling adapter located directly upstream of the nozzle.

A program aiming at predicting dynamic characteristics of a Liquid Rocket Engine(LRE) was developed and examined to trace entire LRE operation. In the startup period, transient characteristics of the propellant flows were predicted and validated with hydraulic tests data. An arrangement of each component for the pipelines was based on an operating circuit of open cycle LRE. The flow rate ratio for the gas generator and the main chamber was determined to mimic that of real open cycle LRE. Individual component modeling at its transient was completed and was integrated into the system prediction program. Essential parameters of the component dynamic characteristics were examined in an integrated fashion.

The study focused on the flow-supply characteristics of the liquid oxidizer $N_2O$ reserved in a tank without any pressurization devices. It was taken accounted that the change of material properties to temperature in the oxidizer tank and the discharge coefficients of both liquid and gas for more precise prediction of the supply mass-flow rate of $N_2O$ oxidizer. To validate the prediction model derived in the study, the experiments were conducted and compare with the theoretical results.

An experimental study was conducted on the spray characteristics of the pintle injector by opening distance. The discharge coefficient of the pintle injector was investigated and the spray angle was measured by taking the spray image by test conditions. As a result of the measurement of the discharge coefficient, it was confirmed that the change in the discharge coefficient of the outer injector was not significant over the experimental conditions, but the change in the discharge coefficient of the inner injector was decreased as the flow rate increased. Measurement of the spray angle showed that the change in the spray angle was not significant in the conditions under which the spray was fully developed, but the spray was not fully developed at low flow rates. This confirmed the possibility of thrust control using the pintle injector.

The factors affecting the flow coefficient of a control valve were identified and analyzed. The flow coefficient of a control valve are affected by not only Reynolds Number but also the figure and the roughness of the inlet/outlet pipes. Therefore, the flow coefficient is not a constant value. For the purpose of use in the system such as LRE, requiring the exact flow-coefficient of a control valve, the flow-coefficient should be measured under similar Reynolds Number using the inlet and outlet pipes which have the same figure and roughness with a real system.

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the effect of film cooling in a liquid rocket engine using Hydrogen peroxide/Kerosene as propellants. The heat fluxes were calculated by the measured wall temperatures on the axial direction of thrust chamber for mass flow rate of coolant and different type of film cooling rings. The flow rate of coolant was 0~20 percent of the total propellant.

A cavitation venturi is a device that allows a liquid flow rate to be fixed or locked independent of a downstream pressure and has been successfully used in a liquid rocket engine system which requires a stable propellant flow rate. In the present research, four cavitation venturis which have same dimensions except for converging inlet angle and diverging outlet angle, were designed and manufactured. Flow rates through each venturi and upstream/downstream pressures were measured by changing the pressures. From the experimental data, the discharge coefficients and critical pressure ratios were calculated for each venturi. It was found that the inlet and outlet angles of the cavitation venturi affected the discharge coefficient, and the outlet angle influenced on the critical pressure ratio.

For the performance evaluation of liquid mono-propellant thruster, Vacuum Hot-fire test is necessarily required. An accurate flow measurement is one of the key parameters to the successful T&E program. This paper describes the characteristics of the coriolis flowmeter, explains the cold-flow test using simulant propellant (DIW), and presents the test results. Finally, the cold test results have been verified in comparison with the hot-fire test data.
