An experimental study was performed to understand spray characteristics of the slinger injector. system for the micro turbojet engine. In this fuel injection system, fuel is sprayed and atomized in the combustor by centrifugal forces of engine shaft. This experimental apparatus consist of a high speed rotating Spindle, slinger injector, pressure tank and acrylic case. The droplet size and velocity were measured by PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) and spray was visualized by using Nd-Yag laser-based flash photography. From the test results, the droplet size(SMD) is largely affected to rotational speed, mass flow rate and the number of injection orifice. From the this experimental study, we could understand the spray characteristics of the slinger injection system and obtain the optimum shape of the slinger injector nozzle which is suitable for the micro turbojet engine.

The easiest way to see the phenomena of compressor surge is to show the static and dynamic operation characteristic on the map. Its operation zone will be restricted by the surge limit and, static and transient process must have some margin for it. Effect of rotor moment of inertia, air/gas volumes and heat transfer are factors to cause the transition from the static line. In case a large volume such as heat exchanger exists in the system it will exert a substantial influence to dynamic characteristics. In the present paper, influence of air volume bled from the compressor exit on transient process is investigated with an example of an auxiliary power unit micro-turbine engine. Turbine mass, pressure ratio, rotation speed, power and moment are calculated based on mass and work conservation. Result from the present study can give guidance to design the control system. A computer program is developed to calculate the dynamic process using the MathCAD commercial software.

Operating mode analysis of a liquid propellant rocket engine(LRE) is a crucial tool through the development of an engine. The operating mode analysis of an engine based on a collection of the acceptance tests of components shows discrepancies when compared to the test results. We propose a correction method for performance parameters to develop an engine analysis model for the gas generator cycle of an LRE. In order to simulate engine behavior, the performance parameters for the analysis model are tuned based on the test results of the 75tf engine of KSLV-II.

As part of the commercialization research of small gas turbine engines, starting and normal operation control logic research of small gas turbine engine was conducted. It was investigated how the igniter, starting motor and fuel pump/valve are controlled during the ignition and normal operation process and it was applied to the prototype engine control unit(ECU) of the small gas turbine engine for commercialization research. Based on the ground test results, an ECU for flight test is being developed, and after completion of the development, an altitude test will be performed through an altitude test facility of Korea Aerospace Research Institute.

In this paper, we presented experimental data of the strength of the electro-magnetic waves in the engine room of automobiles. Measured frequency ranges are $145{\sim}380MHz$ and $844{\sim}1044MHz$. Experimental studies are conducted by measuring the radiated power of the frequency spectrum for above frequency bands. The $\lambda/2$ dipoles used for measurement are fabricated to comply with the COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 95/54EC. Experimental results confirm that the level of radiated power in the engine room at idling rpm is about 3dB higher than that of 1500rpm.

A propeller as a propulsion system has been redesigned to improve performance of a target drone. The vortex theory has been applied for the propeller design method. Design variables have been the chord length along the direction of blade radius, the change of blade radius, and the geometric angle of the blade. The existing propeller has been redesigned and modified considering engine RPM change to get the improved thrust at both low and high speeds.

The moisture in the atmosphere exerts a lot of influence upon Gas turbine engine performances. There is a noticeable influence of wet air at the summer sea level, high flight mach number and low engine rpm increasingly. An altitude Engine Test Facility is used to accomplish the engine performance tests at dry air condition and wet air condition, through which engine performance results is revealed. Also, Gas turbine Simulation Program is used to predict the variation of engine performance due to inlet humidity. In the result, net thrust and specific fuel consumption measured -2.826% and 1.325%, respectively at wet air condition compared to dry air condition.

Reliable starting capability of a gas turbine engine calls the engine industry's attention recently. So far the gas turbine engine performance researches have focused on the range between idle to Max rpm, but recent attention on the starting has brought interests in the range of "Sub-dile". As component characteristic maps are essential for the starting research, various kinds of studies have been doing and proposing ways to expand the existing maps toward sub-idle range. In this paper, previous studies were discussed and a new method suggested and validated.
