Numerical investigation has been made on the aerodynamic characteristics of supersonic air-launching rocket, as a new concept launching mechanism. Parametric study on the variations of launching velocity, incident angle and mounting location of the rocket has been performed using three dimensional Euler equations. Influential factors at separating stage of the rocket were extracted through comprehensive analyses, and, the response surface models were constructed for those factors. From the study, the aerodynamic behavior of the air-launching rocket at supersonic speed and useful guidelines for the optimal mounting location of the rocket have been obtained.

A 1-D system design program has been developed for the preliminary design of the turbopump system in liquid rocket engines, which use LOx and kerosene as propellants. Gasgenerator cycle and staged combustion cycle were considered as turbopump type liquid rocket engine systems. In the system analysis, mass flow balance, thrust, specific impulse, mixture ratios, turbopump power, and turbine expansion ratio of engine system were analyzed. Results show that most of the parameters agree well with real engine parameters except gasgenerator. Therefore, the l-D system design program developed in this study can be used to derive the preliminary design parameters of a turbopump with any thrust level liquid rocket engine.

태양을 중심으로 그 주위를 돌고 있는 혹성은 모두 9개, 지구까지 합하면 10개라고도 하고 달을 빼고 9개라고도 한다. 사람이 달 표면에 처음으로 착륙한 것이 1969년, 그로부터 30년이 가까워오는 지금 사람은 달 이외에 금성, 화성, 목성, 토성 등 여러 혹성을 탐사하는데 성공했지만 구체적으로 사람이 착륙한 곳은 달 밖에 없다.

This paper examines a survey on recent research regarding health monitoring and management for liquid rocket engines (LRE). For this, we investigated precedent techniques applied to LRE development. Particularly, we focused on open-cycle LRE to apply to KSLV-II (Korea Space Launch Vehicle II). Through this study, we subdivided health monitoring algorithms and analyzed fault detection and diagnosis algorithm developed in China, since China researched open-cycle LRE that have the same cycle as KSLV-II rocket engines. We discuss significant points to be considered regarding development of the KSLV-II.

Korea Sounding Rocket(KSR)-III onboard telemetry system has acquired various data from subsystems and sensors in the rocket, and radiated PCM/FM data using two S-band antennas during the flight. Simultaneously， it is necessary that the ground receiving systems track the rocket, and receive and decode telemetry data. Also post processed telemetry data are needed to be broadcasted on ethernet network in real time. Range safety display system displays flight trajectory using telemetry data in mission control center, and so flight manager makes a decision for flight termination from the trajectory This paper describes operating technique about telemetry reception, the development for the realtime data processing system, and the results for telemetering reception on fight test. We telemetered, processed, and broadcasted numerous telemetry data during the flight test successfully.

In this study, AP added propellant has been proposed as a method of enhancing the low specific impulse performance found for staged hybrid rocket engine. Experimental tests were carried out to analyze and evaluate the effect of AP added propellant on specific impulse performance as well as fuel-rich combustion characteristics in a staged hybrid rocket engine. Upper limit of AP content in propellant was set to be 15 wt% to maintain the hybrid rocket engine advantages. As a result, 15 wt% AP added propellant showed 3% higher specific impulse performance compared to 0 wt% AP added propellant. Moreover, AP addition proved to offer less injected oxidizer mass flow, less O/F variation, and less combustion pressure while producing fuel-rich gas of the same combustion temperature. Future studies will carry out more combustion tests with metal additives to further enhance specific impulse.

지상 수백km정도의 고도밖에는 왕복할수 없는 현재의 제한된 우주수송능력은 비교적 가까운 우주공간에서 화물을 운반하고 작업을 하는 궤도기동체(OMV)와 우주공간의 어느 곳, 어떤 궤도에도 왕래하는 우주전이비행체(STV)를 필요로 하고 있다. 이들은 재래식 화학로켓을 개량한 진보형 추진시스템을 1차적으로 활용하는 방향으로 개발이 진행되고 있다. 우주와 지구사이를 비교적 경제적으로 용이하게 왕래하고 우주공간에서 자유로이 기동작동하는 추진시스템이 완성되면, 인류의 우주개척은 본궤도에 오르게 되며, 생활권을 우주로 옮기는 날도 가까워질 것이다
