SI 엔진의 연소특징은 비정상 난류 예혼합 화염이며 여기서 내부 유동은 직접 화염 전파에 영향을 미치며 난류와 거시적 유동의 패턴 모두 중요한 역할을 한다. 내연기관 연소에서 난류는 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 통상 엔진 속도($\approx$흡입유동 속도)에 비례하며 그 주요 역할은 고속 운전 시 해당 사이클 내에 연소가 완료되는 데 기여하지만 출력저하, 제어 및 측정 그리고 사이클 변동과 관련하여 실질적으로 난류 제어를 통한 엔진 성능 개선은 사실상 불가능하다. 실물 엔진의 성능 파라미터로 주로 유동의 거시적 거동이 사용되며 이 유동과 연료 분사계가 혼합기 분포 상태와 화염 전파 방향을 결정하여 최종적으로 엔진의 성능을 지배한다. 따라서 가시화를 통한 연소 진단도 이 현상에 주목할 필요가 있으며 거시적 파라미터를 성능에 연관하는 다양한 기법이 존재하고 이들은 매우 풍부한 데이터베이스를 통해 비교적 정확한 성능의 예측을 가능하게 하고 이 점에 주목한 엔진만 성공을 거두었다. 이 거시적 현상에 주목하여 가시화를 통해 성층화 현상을 실험적으로 해석한 예를 제시하였다. SI 엔진 가시화에서 기법보다 중요한 것은 현상의 이해이다. 이를 위해 성공적 가시화 진단을 위해서는 우선 현상에 대한 모델링이 필요하고 이 모델에서 가시화를 통해 규명 가능한 현상을 추출해 내는 것이다.

A set of preliminary design parameters for the bipropellant rocket engine using liquid methane-fuel as green propellant were derived through a theoretical performance analysis. Chemical equilibrium analysis utilizing CEA was conducted for the prediction of combustion performance: combustion characteristics according to the O/F ratio and chamber pressure variation were investigated. For a determination of chamber-characteristic length, the vaporization time of fuel-droplet with various performance parameters was calculated by applying Spalding's 1-D droplet vaporization model. Finally, the preliminary design specification of methane-bipropellant rocket engine, which is to be performance-tested under the ground firing condition, was proposed.

Swirl injectors have the advantage of stable combustion, high efficiency, and insensibility to variable O/F ratio. Recess length is the length from outer orifice tip to inner orifice tip. It is the very important variable of performance of swirl type injector Recess length have influence on collision, mixing, spray, and combustion of propellants. This study investigated on the engine performance with the change of recess length through CFD, cold flow test, and combustion test. In result, we could confirm the change of engine performance with the change of recess length. And we found that performance forecast process through CFD, cold flow test is the right process through combustion test.

Using liquefied natural gas as a fuel, water, natural gas and liquefied natural gas-cooled firing tests were conducted. With the viewpoint of characteristic velocity, and specific impulse, the effect of OF mixture ratio and fuel inlet temperature into a combustion chamber were analyzed. OF mixture ratio and fuel inlet temperature into a combustion chamber have great influence on the performance. Characteristic velocity and theoretical specific impulse attain the maximum value at 0.72~0.75 and 0.75 of OF mixture ratio, respectively. Engine performance has a tendency to increase, proportional to fuel inlet temperature into a combustion chamber affected by the regenerative cooling.

Hot firing performance test of hydrazine decomposition catalyst used for monopropellant thruster of satellite and launch vehicle was performed on the ground. A test equipment for hot firing performance measurement of catalyst test was developed in collaboration with Hanwha Corp., and the catalyst firing performance were tested with the equipment. After a reaction delay time, a catalyst activity and a granule stability were measured for 2 times, satisfactory results were obtained such as 25msec, 2%, $704^{\circ}C$ for each test items on the average. In addition, the current development status of domestic prototype catalyst and its decomposition performance test results are presented.

The combustion performance tests of a 30 tonf-class full-scale combustion chamber performed with kerosene as a coolant were described. The combustion chamber has chamber pressure of 53bara and propellant flow mass rate of 90kg/s. Since it was first firing test for 30tonf-class combustion chamber using kerosene cooling, kerosene coolant mass flow rate of 32kg/s which correspond to 120% of design mass flow rate were performed. Then, the firing test with kerosene mass flow rate of 25kg/s were successfully performed. The test results are described and the results showed that the kerosene cooling performance of this combustion chamber is sufficient and the firing test with regenerative cooling is feasible.

In hybrid rocket combustion, the oxidizer swirl injection is frequently used to stabilize the combustion as the rotational velocity component affects the boundary layer flow. However, as the swirl strength increases, a problem arises where the combustion performance changes too much. Thus, this study attempts to control the low frequency instability while minimizing the change in combustion performance by adapting attenuated swirl injection with fuel insert used in reference [7]. To this end, a series of experimental tests were performed by varying swirl intensity and the location of the fuel insert. In the tests, the occurrence of combustion instability and combustion performance were closely monitored. The results confirmed that combustion instability was successfully suppressed at the condition of the swirl angle 6 degree and the location of fuel insert 310 mm. And, the changes in combustion pressure, O/F ratio, and fuel regression rate were found as minimal compared to the baseline case. Also the results reconfirmed that the formation of positive coupling between two high frequency oscillations in 500 Hz band, combustion pressure(p') and heat release oscillation(q'), is the necessary and sufficient condition of the occurrence of low frequency instability.

여러 가지 다른 형태의 노즐을 공기 선회식 버너와 공기의 선회가 없는 버너(CB-125 Burner)에 장치하여 공기 분사식으로 오일을 분사하여 연소로에서 연소시켰다. 연소로는 길이 3m에 약 1m 상(3) 의 연소공간을 가졌으며 상부에는 열전대를 장치하고 하부에는 물이 흐르는 관을 설치하여 열효율을 계산할 수 있게 설계하였다. 연소로 연돌부에는 CO 하(2), CO, O 하(2) 가스 분석기를 사용하여 과잉공기량과 고온계로 배기가스 온도를 측정하도록 하였다. 모든 측정치는 연소곡선과 효율곡선에 의하여 얻어진 상수를 이용하여 계산한 연소로 성능방정식에 의하여 평가하였다. 실험치에 의해 계산한 벽면 열손실량과 열전달 공식에 의해 산출한 열손실량을 비교 분석하여 측정치의 정확도를 추정하고 과잉공기의 효과도 검토하였다. 그 결과 본 연구에서 사용된 두 종류의 버너와 여러 형태의 노즐이 오일 연소시 열효율 면에서 큰 차이를 보이지 않고 있음을 알았다.

The performance of 75 ton liquid rocket engine combustion chamber for a space launch vehicle was predicted through firing tests at low pressure. In low pressure tests of 75 ton LRE combustor chamber, the combustion characteristic velocity of 1750 m/sec and the specific impulse of 240 sec were obtained which are higher than the low pressure performance of 30ton combustion chamber. The combustion characteristic velocity of 1770 m/sec and the specific impulse of 278 sec at design point for 75 ton LRE combustion chamber were predicted by using the low/high pressure performance correlation of 30ton LRE combustion chamber.
