3단형 과학로켓의 고체모타의 내부 유동을 추진제의 연소에 따라 내부형상이 변화하는 과정에 대해 수치해석 하였다. 추진제는 표면에서 균일하게 연소된다고 가정하였으며 연소거리가 0.1mm, 30mm, 60mm, 90mm인 경우의 고체모타 내부 물리량 변화를 관찰하였다. 연소가 진행되며 잠입형 노즐의 위 부분에 큰 재순환 영역이 생기는 것이 관찰되었으며 노즐에 작용하는 압력 힘을 구하여 본 결과 노즐부의 모멘트 힘은 크지 않은 것으로 판명되었다.(중략)

Fuel shutoff valve of a combustion chamber controls propellant mass flowrate of a rocket engine, by using pilot pressure and spring force. The developing fuel shutoff valve can be self sustained even though pilot pressure is removed in an actuator. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the characteristics of the forces with respect to the opening and closing of the valve in order to evaluate its performance. In light of this, the valve has been designed to adjust the control pressure for the opening of the poppet and to determine the working fluid pressure at which the valve starts to close. This paper also has been predicted flow coefficient of the valve by Fluent(ver. 12.0) CFD analysis. Various results from the prediction and the analysis have been compared with experiments.

A main oxidizer shutoff valve controls the supply of the oxidizer flow into the combustion chamber of a liquid rocket engine. This shutoff valve also carries out the pre-chilling of oxidizer supply lines by permitting recycling flow for stable transient start of the engine. In the present paper, the flow tests for the recycling line of the valve were conducted in order to evaluate the cooling performance of the main oxidizer shutoff valve. In addition, cryogenic life-cycle tests were performed with an assumption of the increase of spring constant with increasing valve operating times due to ductile-brittle transition effects.

유동층 연소기술은 선진 각국에서 다투어 개발하고 있는 최첨단 연소기술이나 국내에서 연구되기 시작한 것은 1979년 KAIST의 직경 10"의 원통형 유동층 연소로 제작을 시초로, 그 후 정부 주도하에 정부출연연구소를 중심으로 하여 상압 유동층 연소의 대규모 공정개발을 목표로 하여 기초연구를 끝내, 이미 0.1ton/hr의 pilot plant를 건설, 현재 가동중에 있으며, 그 결과를 기초로하여 1984년 10배의 확대(1ton/hr), 1986년에는 상용화 규모인 10ton/hr의 demonstration plant설치를 계획중에 있는데, 이와같이 단계적인 확장 이유는 scale-up에 있어 최적 운전조건을 위한 많은 기술의 축적이 필요하기 때문이다. 한편 근자에 와서, 각 대학과 일반업체에서도 많은 관심을 가지고 연구에 힘을 기울이고 있는데, 동양화학(주)에서는 120ton/hr의 열병합 FBC 건설을 핀랜드 기술진과 추진하고 있으며 본 연구실에서도 고유황 벙커C유의 유동층 연소를 위해 banch scale 연소로를 제작하여 연구를 수행중에 있다.에 있다.

리니어 발전기는 리니어 엔진의 시동에 필요한 연소조건을 만들기 위하여 전동기로 동작하다가 연소가 안정화되면 발전기로 동작을 하여 PCS(Power Conditioning System)를 통해서 전력을 계통으로 보내주게 된다. 리니어 엔진의 초기 시동을 하기 위하여 발전기는 운동주파수와 운동방향, 그리고 힘의 크기를 제어해야 하며, 발전 시에는 엔진의 동작에 맞도록 전력을 제어해야 한다. 이를 효율적으로 제어하기 위하여 MSC(Machine Side Converter)에서 상전류를 독립적으로 조절할 수 있는 H-bridge로 각 상을 구성하였다. LSI(Line Side Inverter)는 DC-Link 전압을 제어하여, MSC의 동력/발전 동작에 따라서 전력을 계통에서 받아오거나 전력을 계통으로 보내는 동작을 한다. 본 연구에서는 리니어 발전기 모델링를 통해서 PCS 제어 알고리즘을 확인하고 전체 시스템과 연동을 한 실제 운전특성에 대하여 살펴보았다.

Precise modeling and analysis of closed bomb test(CBT) combustion using solid propellants was performed. The fluid structure interaction(FSI) method was implemented to analyze the gas and solid phases at the same time. The Eulerian analysis method was applied for the gas phase and grain combustion, and the Lagrangian analysis method was implemented for the grain movement. The interaction between the solid phase grains and the combustion gas was fully coupled through the source term. The volume of fluid(VOF) method was used to simulate the burning distance of the grain and the movement of the combustion surface. The force acting on the grain was comprised of the pressure and gravity acting on the grain burning surface, and the grain burning rate and grain movement speed were considered in the velocity term of the VOF. The combustion analysis was performed for both one and three grains, and fairly compared with the experiments. The acoustic field during grain combustion due to pressure fluctuations was also analyzed.

A poppet type shutoff valve under the pneumatic control has been adapted for the MOV (Main Oxidizer shutoff Valve) for KSLV (Korea Space Launch Vehicle). The MOV controls the supply of liquid oxygen into the combustion chamber just by opening and shutting operations. The poppet part of the poppet valves is usually connected with the piston, but on the other hand that of the MOV is separated and just contacted with the piston in order to secure the flexibility of the valve design. For the prevention of the collision with valve body by an undesirable movement of the piston part, it is necessary to evaluate the force during the valve closing. The analysis of the force balance of the MOV at the moment of the valve closing have been performed and some important design parameters for the force balance control have been introduced.

본 연구에서는 Free-piston 엔진용 원통형 선형 발전기의 전동기 운전을 이용한 기동에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. Free-piston 엔진의 피스톤이 흡기, 압축, 폭발, 배기 과정에 따라 정상 상태로 왕복운동을 하기 위해서는 기동 시 정지상태인 피스톤을 외부의 힘으로 움직여 연소실에 있던 공기를 밀어내고, 연료를 연소실안에 흡입한 뒤 다시 압축시켜 플러그를 통해 폭발시켜 주어야 한다. 이 과정에서 별도의 전동기를 사용하는 대신 Free-piston 엔진에서 사용하는 원통형 선형 발전기를 전동기로 사용하여 엔진의 기동을 위해 요구되는 속도와 토크를 만족시키는지 동특성 해석을 하였고, free-piston 엔진을 기동시키기에 충분한 속도와 토크를 낼 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다.

The objective of this paper is to get excitation forces of the engine at each of the brackets for the prediction of the vehicle interior noise by the powertrain. A powertrain geometry model is produced by CATIA and its FE model is made by MSC/Patran. A vibration mode analysis and a running mode analysis are experimentally implemented. After getting a satisfied MAC value by doing a correlation about a measured mode analysis value and analyzed value through MSC/Nastran software, all components are assembled through MSC/ADAMS software which is a dynamic analysis tool. We can predict the vibration of brackets which is the last points to occur the force of the engine combustion by analyzing the combustion force produced by engine mechanism.

The MEMS solid propellant thrusters have very low thrust level for applying to the propulsion system of micro/nano satellites or the side jet thruster of smart bombs. In this research, the fabrication possibility of planar type MEMS solid propellant thrusters that have enlarged burning surface area was examined and the safety of the structure of thruster during the firing test was confirmed. The performance of a micro igniter which is the key component of the MEMS solid propellant thruster was estimated by the ANSYS Icepak and evaluated by the experiment. Finally, the thrust was measured by the micro force sensor. The levels of thrust were 300, 600 mN in the case of K=15, 20.
