The developed control valves, installed on the hot water distribution manifolds for the floor heating system, consist of the balancing valves and the shut-off valves. The balancing valve was designed to improve the flow control performance and to reduce the noise emitted from the valve by modification of the general V port. The port of the shut-off valve was designed with two ceramic plates, working by rotating upper plate, to improve the duration and to reduce the noise. For the evaluation of the new valves, the flow rate was measured and noise level test was carried out. The test results showed that the error of the flow rate accuracy test for the flow balance of each manifold circuit was less than ${\pm}3%$ and the noise level was less than 35 dB(A).

This study was conducted to develop a domestic product for a flow control valve for a hydrogen refueling station, and a domestic prototype was manufactured and the durability performance evaluation was conducted through comparison with an imported products. The stress generated by the internal pressure was checked and safety was confirmed using a commercial structural analysis program, ABAQUS, in accordance with the withstand pressure test standards. In addition, after identifying the weak areas the fatigue life was predicted through a commercial software, fe-safe. This fatigue analysis showed that the hydrogen gas repeated test criteria were satisfied.

This paper is to introduce Hanwha Aerospace R&D Center's development status of TVC(Thrust Vector Control) system and control valves for Korean space launch vehicles. With the successful development of KSR-III TVC system, Hanwha have developed TVC system and RCS control valves for KSLV-I. Also, in the advance research area of KSLV-II, Hanwha have participated in LOx and fuel flow control valves and LOx shut-off valve development in the engine supply system. Based on the accumulated experiences and technologies in the aerospace key components and system development, Hanwha will make an important contribution to KSLV-II development in the future.

Precise control of oxidizer mass flow rate is important for hybrid rocket thrust control. In this study, oxidizer mass flow rate control system is developed by using stepping motor which is controlled by Labview program. Gox is used for oxidizer and PolyCarbonate, PolyEthylene, and PMMA is used for solid propellant. To suppress thrust oscillation during thrust control experiment, schematics of the experiment is analysised and revised. Results show that thrust oscillation is suppressed successfully.

A dynamical analysis and PID control of a compressed gas expulsion system is performed. The purpose of this study is to develop a compressed gas discharging system and to verify the validity of the system. The electro-hydraulic servo valve is modeled as a 3th order transfer function to calculate flow force affecting expulsion valve is significantly considered. The friction force in the expulsion valve is considered as a nonliner model of stribeck effect. The dynamic characteristics of this system is examined by the computer simulation. The position control of the expulsion valve is performed by PID controller.

The present paper provides the design specifications and working principle of flow controlling vortex valve which will be adopted in a Korean next generation reactor (APR1400). The vortex valve is installed inside the pressurized safety injection tank of APR1400, and it passively controls the water discharge flowrate from the tank. In the present study, the performance of the vortex valve have been evaluated throughout the repeated experiments in the full-scale test facility called VAPER(VAlve Performance Evaluation Rig). Based on the experimental results, it is confirmed that the currently developed vortex valve satisfies the major performance requirements of APR1400 plant design in view of the peak discharge flowrate, pressure loss coefficient, and total discharge duration time. To achieve the highest quality of the experimental results, a quality assurance program for vortex valve tests has been strictly applied.

본 논문은 부스터펌프 자동제어시스템의 성능평가를 위한 시험방법에 관한 것이다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시험방법은 펌프 자체의 성능평가에만 의존했던 기존의 방법과 달리 펌프와 펌프를 제어하기 위한 자동제어장치까지 포함한 전체 시스템에 대한 성능평가를 할 수 있도록 한다. 본 시험방법은 부스터펌프 자동제어시스템을 설치하고, 토출 측에 전자제어밸브를 설치하여 이를 제어함으로써 물의 사용량 즉, 유량에 변화를 주게 된다. 이때 토출압력을 일정하게 유지하도록 설정된 자동제어시스템은 펌프를 제어하여 물을 토출 측으로 공급하게 되며 이를 통해 토출압력의 변화를 측정하는 방법이다. 이러한 시험방법에 있어서 정상상태특성시험, 가속 특성시험, 응답특성시험을 수행한다. 결과적으로 본 논문의 시험방법을 통해 전체 시스템에 대한 성능평가가 가능하며, 모든 시험과정을 자동화 할 수 있고 다양한 운전환경에 대한 유량변화를 짧은 시간 내에 적용하여 시험에 소요되는 시간을 단축할 수 있다.

Fuel shutoff valve of a gas generator 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 designed dynamic model using the AMESim and predicted flow coefficient of the valve by Fluent CFD analysis. Various results from the prediction and the analysis have been compared with experiments. Finally, dynamic characteristics of the valve have been verified with experimental results.
