In the solid rocket propellant combustion, dynamic phase change from solid to liquid to vapor occurs across the melt layer. During the burning surface, micro scale bubbles form as liquid and gas phases are mixed in the intermediate zone between the propellant and the flame. The experimentally measured thickness of this layer called the foam layer is approximately 1 micron at 1 atmosphere. In this paper, we present a new melting layer model derived from the classical phase change theory. The model results show that the surface of burning grows and propagate uniformly at a velocity of $r=ap^n$.

The onset of convection in a mushy layer is analyzed by using linear stability theory in time-dependent solidification of a binary melt. A simplified model of a near-eutectic mush, in which the mush is assumed to be a porous block, is used and the propagation theory is applied to determine the critical conditions for the onset of convection. The present critical Rayleigh number is higher than the existing experimental result and also theoretical results obtained by considering the mushy layer with an overlying liquid layer. The constant pressure (permeable) condition applied on the mush-liquid interface produces a lower critical Rayleigh number, which is closer to the experimental results of aqueous ammonium chloride solution, compared with the impermeable condition.

Many researchers have studied several vibration control devices such as TMD, TLD, and VED to reduce the acceleration level for tall buildings. Advantages of TLD (tuned liquid damper) include easy installation, low cost, and less maintenance. However, the dynamic characteristics of TLD must be verified by experiment and analysis due to the difficulties in evaluating the characteristics of water sloshing. In this study, free vibration and dynamic excitation experiments of structure with TLD were conducted to verify vibration control force of the proposed TLD for high-rise building. The parameters were mass ratio of water to structure, number of damping nets, and aspect ratio. From the test results, the responses of structure with water tank were observed to be smaller than those of structure alone. Furthermore, better damping effect could be achieved with larger mass ratio, more damping nets, and larger aspect ratio. However, in the case of water tank with no damping net, little damping effect was obtained.

This study deals with the experiments of liquid dampers with multi cells whose vertical tubes are divided into several square columns for easily changing natural frequencies. Shaking table test is performed to verify control effectiveness of the dampers which are installed on a building structure. To design liquid dampers, a 64-story building structure is reduced to a SDOF structure with 1/20 of similitude laws based on acceleration. The structure model is made up to adjust its mass and stiffness easily, with separate mass and drive parts. Mass parts indicate real structure's weights and drive parts indicate real structure's stiffness with springs and LM guides. Manufactured liquid damper has 18 cells and its natural frequency ranges are 0.65Hz to 0.81Hz. Shaking table test is carried out with one way excitation to compare with only accelerations of a large-scale structure and a structure installed with liquid dampers. Control performance of the liquid damper is expressed by the transfer function from shaking table accelerations to the large-scale structure ones. Testing results show that the liquid damper reduced a large-scale structure's response by tuned natural frequencies.

This paper describes a general design procedure of regenerative cooling system for liquid rocket engine(LRE). From this design logic, cooling channels are designed and fabricated. The measured heat flux from firing test is similar to the heat flux predicted by design logic. Therefore, proposed design procedure of cooling channel can be applied to real LRE system. Also the result of firing test indicates that soot from combustion products have strong influence on the cooling characteristics of LRE.

A Ni/Cr plating process has been developed for applying to inner wall of liquid rocket engine(LRE) thrust chamber. Ni plating conditions were selected through thermal shock test and endurance verification of the plating layers was performed through hot firing test of a subscale thrust chamber with Ni/Cr plating. Test results showed that a crack or separation of the plating layers was not found. Judging from the results, Ni/Cr plating could be applied to LRE thrust chamber as a substitute of air plasma sprayed ceramic coating which is presently being used.

The Fourier transform spectra of a grating have been employed to determine the refractive index of a simple lens. The shearing interferometric technique is used for collimation testing of the expanded laser beam and for determining the exact focal plane. The slit attached to micro X-Y translator has been used to measure the distance between two sucessive diffraction orders in the back focal plane of the test lens. The experimental equipment is described and results are presented.

표면에너지는 계면특성을 지배하는 핵심인자로 디스플레이의 터치 스크린 패널 공정, 이종소재의 접합, 금속의 클래딩 등 실제 산업에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 표면에너지는 코팅과 본딩 이론에 있어서 기본이 되는 물리량으로 표면에너지가 높을수록 코팅 또는 박막 증착시 코팅, 증착이 용이하며 이종소재의 접합도 쉽게 일어난다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 표면처리시 산소 분율의 변화에 따른 기판의 표면에너지와 코팅층과 기판의 부착력의 변화에 대해 연구하였다. 연구의 주요 기판으로 ITO, PET 기판을 사용하였고, 표면 에너지 변화를 확인하기 위해 기판을 상온 상압 플라즈마에 노출시켰다. 플라즈마는 아르곤(Ar)의 공급량을 20 LPM으로 고정하고 산소($O_2$)의 공급량을 0 sccm에서 40 sccm 까지 10 sccm 간격으로 변수를 주었다. 표면에너지 값은 기판 위에 형성된 액체의 접촉각을 통해 도출하였다. 표면에너지 측정 액체로 증류수(deionized water)와 디오도메탄(diiodo-methane)을 사용하였다. 표면에너지는 산소분압이 10 sccm에서 최대값인 76 mJ/m2으로 증가한 후 20 sccm까지 유지하다 다시 직선적으로 감소하였다. 기판에 증착된 크롬 박막의 부착력은 스크래치 테스트를 통해 측정하였다. 표면에너지의 증가와 비례하게 부착력은 증가하였고 표면에너지가 감소하는 범위에서는 부착력도 감소하였다. 기판과 코팅층의 부착력 증가 원인 중 하나인 계면 산화물 층의 생성 여부를 알아보기 위해 auger electron spectroscopy (AES) 분석을 진행하였다. AES 분석을 통해 플라즈마 표면처리시 기판과 코팅층의 계면 산화물층의 두께가 표면에너지의 변화와 비례하게 증가하였다가 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 산소분압이 10 sccm 이었을 경우 산화물층의 두께가 가장 두꺼웠다. 또한 계면의 화학적 결합 상태를 알아보기 위해 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) 분석을 진행하였으며 산소 분율의 변화에 따라 크롬 산화물의 양이 증가하였다 감소하는것을 확인하였다. 이 연구를 통해 산소를 포함한 플라즈마 표면개질이 기판과 코팅층의 부착력 증가에 영향을 끼침을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 이를 응용하여 부착력 증가가 필요한 다양한 분야에서도 쉽게 적용시킬 수 있을 것이다.

The behavior of a one-step fixed bed reactor which directly synthesizes dimethyl ether(DME) from Natural Gas was simulated. In the reactor, the prevention of the occurrence of hot spots which can cause deactivation of catalysts is pivotal, since methanol synthesis and dehydration reaction involved in the synthesis of DME are highly exothermic. Therefore, we simulated and compared performance of the reactor with counter-current cooling and pool boiling system that can be applied to a commercial plant. As a result, we found that counter-current cooling system is more effective in terms of CO conversion and DME productivity. However, pool boiling system can operate in a small temperature gradient that can decrease problems caused by hot spot. And, the system can operate in a safer range.
