우주추진기관의 모든 부품은 생산 시 규정된 절차를 거쳐서 작동의 이상유무를 확인하는 시험을 거친다. 우주추진기관은 특별한 경우를 제외하고는 실 비행 상태에서 시험하기가 어렵거나 불편하기 때문에 지상에서 시험을 수행하여 성능 및 안정성 등을 확인하게 된다. 지상연소시험을 수행하기 위해서는 비행용 엔진을 대상으로 엔진 메니폴드에 비행 시와 같은 조건의 추진제가 공급될 수 있게 해줘야 한다. 기존에 시험장이 이미 구축되어 있는 경우 엔진의 운용조건에 맞추어 엔진에 맞게 엔진과 시험설비 연결부분이 수정되게 된다.(중략)

A liquid rocket engine goes through many tests to prove its performance before liftoff. It means the tests for setting ignition and start-up conditions or a test on design condition, which verifies the design performance. However, the development process requires verification of performance under off-design conditions through tests involving different operating conditions, which affects the duration of engine development. The off-design performance test is performed by altering the conditions of the propellant supplied to the engine in conjunction with the engine performance test that varies the opening of the control valves in the engine. This paper is based on the results of the engine tests performed at the KSLV-II engine test facilities in the Naro Space Center and describes the operations of the test facility for off-design condition test that changes the inlet conditions of the turbo-pump due to changes in the pressure and temperature of the propellant supplied to the test engines.

소형항공기용 IO-540 왕복엔진을 대상으로 추진기관의 성능에 미치는 배압 특성을 조사하기 위해서 지상 성능시험을 수행하였다. 본 시험은 6가지 배기조건에 대해서 엔진의 배압과 흡기압력, 토크, 그리고 프로펠러의 정지추력을 측정하였다. 엔진의 배압은 대체로 머플러를 장착할 경우와 배기관 끝단이 상대적으로 직경이 작고 길이가 길수록 증가하였다. 배압 특성은 특히 엔진의 회전속도가 고속 영역으로 갈수록 프로펠러 추력에 변화를 나타냈으며 전반적으로 추진기관 성능에 미세한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper reviews on the LRE health monitoring and emergency protection system to protect test object engine system and engine test facility, in case of various fault occurrence at LRE testing. General composition and major technical consideration of LRE health monitoring system and emergency protection system are reviewed. Moreover, some application of LRE health monitoring/emergency protection system to development test of major LRE component such as turbopump testing, gas generator and combustion chamber test are reviewed.

This research was conducted for an acquisition of the ramjet engine test facility design technique which are concerned about freejet type test facility. In this research, we concentrated on the design technique and the construction technique of the vitiation air heater(VAH), test section, diffuser and ejector. Based on the operating modes of the basic test facility, ten operating modes in coordinates "Altitude-Mach number" was regenerated from Mach 2, Altitude 0km to Mach 5, Altitude 15km. In this operating modes, we calculated a design parameter of the supersonic nozzle, VAH, diffuser and ejector and acquired a technique for the ramjet test facility operating and repairing.

An internal flow aerodynamic test was performed for a Mach 5 scramjet engine. The test was done without fuel injection, as a preliminary test for the combustion test. Test engine is an engineering model with intake cross-section of $70mm{\times}200mm$ and total length of 1.7m. Test facility is a blowdown-type, high enthalpy, hypersonic facility. 19 pressures were measured through the holes on the model surface along the engine internal flow passage. It was found that the facility start is possible, and also supersonic flow is maintained inside the engine.

The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) legislates the CS-E (Certification Specification-Engine) for type certification of aircraft engines. According to the CS-E, engine manufacturers (type certificate holders) the need to show compliance of continued airworthiness of an engine during the overhaul, and the Accelerated Mission Test (AMT) is usually accepted as means of compliance. As a part of the Korean Civil Helicopter program, the engine has been developed with foreign manufacturers to achieve the EASA engine type certificate. In this study, the AMT procedure is planned for the engine to be certified by the EASA, and AMT cycles are also established to meet airworthiness requirements of the CS-E in consideration of the engine design and operation characteristics.

KSR-III 과학로켓 개발사업의 한 분야인 추진기관 연구에 있어 가장 중심이 되는 것은 제작된 연소실의 시험/검증이라고 할 수 있다. 여러 단계의 시험 가운데에서도 엔진의 특성을 제 1차 적으로 파악하고, 시험 대상물인 엔진을 스탠드에 장착하여 시험이 가능토록 하기 위해서 모사 추진제(물) 혹은 실제 추진제를 사용하여 수력학적 특성을 알아내는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이를 위해 engineering model 엔진(이하 EM)에 대하여 액체 산소 배관은 액체 산소를, 스탠드 사정상 케로신 배관은 액체 질소를 사용한 비연소 시험을 수행하였으며, 이러한 일련의 비연소 시험을 통해 산화제 및 연료 매니폴드 각각에 대한 차압과 매니폴드를 채우는 시간을 측정하여 점화 사이클을 정의할 수 있었다.(중략)

In Europe, it is necessary to fulfil the type certification criteria by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) when developing an aircraft engine. According to type certification criteria, a 150 hours endurance test should be performed to verify the stability of the engine structure under the engine's operating limit conditions. The type certification criteria for the 150 hour endurance test are specified in JAR-E, which is the EASA type certification. Currently, the Arriel 2L2 engine is being developed in cooperation with a foreign manufacturer, and a 150 hours endurance test was performed. In this study, a 150 hours endurance test procedure is conducted in consideration of the operation characteristics of the currently developed engine.
