There is a many way of LPRE throttling methods, high-pressure-drop systems, dual-manifold injector, gas injection, multiple chambers, pulse modulation and movable injector components. Especially dual-manifold injector is essentially combines two fixed-area injectors into a common structure, with independent feed systems controlling flow to each injector manifold. In this paper, using indirect photography and liquid film thickness measurement with various injection pressure and tangential entry diameter to decide stability of spray over a wide thrust range in dual manifold injector.

Thrust variation is an essential parameter in a space mission such as landing on an atmosphereless planet or docking a spacecraft. In order to achieve the thrust variation control, using throttleable injector is a representative and general method. A dual-manifold injector, one of throttleable injectors, was used to control mass flow rate. Five kinds of injectors were designed and investigated in order to compare the spray characteristics of the dual-manifold injector with various tangential entries. Spray angles and patterns were measured to determine external flow characteristics and film thicknesses were measured in order to investigate the internal flow patterns.

This paper presents the design technique of output multiplexer(OMUX) for the Ka-band satellite transponder. Output multiplexer consists of low-pass filter(LPF), channel filter and manifold. Channel filters adopt dual-mode technique in design for mass and volume reduction and frequency response of channel filters is 4-pole elliptic response for high frequency selectivity. w-pass filters are designed to be of 13th order corrugated type for high rejection characteristic over reception band of satellite transponder. After initial design of channel filters and manifold, we optimized only a few design parameters for fast and easy optimization instead of optimizing all the design parameter. Measured results of a realized output umltiplexer for Ka-band satellite transponder show good agreement with the computed ones.

An output multiplexer of manifold type is widely used in a recent satellite transponder f3r its mass and volume reduction. For correct operation, the filter of such a multiplexer must be singly terminated. In this paper, a simple synthesis method of a 6-pole dual-mode singly terminated filter is described. From the transfer function of the filter, network parameters such as in/output terminations and coupling matrix are obtained with the aid of orthogonal projection and plane rotation. The rotation order, pivot, and rotation angle of the plane rotation process are given for easy filter synthesis. Two different-structure filters are taken into consideration and the network parameters of each filter have been obtained from the same transfer function. The method described in this paper can be applied to the other degree singly terminated filter.

For mass and volume reduction, input demultiplxer and output multiplexer of satellite transponder widely adopt dual-mode waveguide filters fer channel filters. Generally, channel filters of the input demultiplexer are doubly terminated and channel filters of manifold output multiplexer should be singly terminated fur correct operation. This paper gives a tuning method using short-ended dummy cavity for dual-mode cavity filters. Tuning is based on the match of the computed and measured phase response of reflection coefficient. This proposed method is applied to 4-pole dual-mode doubly terminated elliptic response filter and 6-pole dual-mode singly terminated elliptic response filter for demonstration of this new tuning method. It is shown that this method shows good agreement between the experimental and computed results.

위성 통신의 수요가 증가하고 있고, 무궁화 위성 등 우리 위성이 발사되면서 위성 탑재체의 국내 개발이 꾸준히 진행되고 있다. 위성 탑재체의 채널 성능은 채널 필터와 입출력 멀티플렉서의 주파수 특성에 의해 크게 좌우된다. 이 글에서는 채널 필터와 멀티플렉서의 구성과 설계에서의 고려 사항에 대해 검토하겠다. 채널 필터를 포함하는 멀티플렉서는 전기적 설계뿐만 아니라 기계적, 열적 설계에서도 까다로운 사양을 요구하고 있다. 채널필터는 소형 경량화의 요구에 따라 주로 이중 모드(dual mode) 필터로 설계되고 있고, 최근에는 HTS 필터에 의한 설계도 시도되고 있다. 입력 멀티플렉서는 채널 사이의 간섭을 방지하기 위해 써큘레이터를 이용하여 구성하고, 출력 멀티플렉서는 손실을 최소화하기 위하여 매니폴드(manifold)를 이용하여 채널필터를 결합한다. 이 글은 Kunes와 Kudsia의 논문을 주로 참조하였다.

Research on High temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cell (HT-PEMFC) has actively been conducted all over the world. Since the HT-PEMFC can be operated at a high temperature of $120-180^{\circ}C$ using phosphoric acid-doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) electrolyte membrane, it has considerable advantages over conventional PEMFC in terms of operating conditions and system efficiency. However, If the thermal distribution is not uniform in the stack unit, degradation due to local reaction and deterioration of lifetime are difficult to prevent. The thin plate separator reduces the volume of the fuel cell stack and improves heat transfer, consequently, enhancing the cooling effect. In this paper, a large area flow field of thin plate separator for HT-PEMFC is designed and sub-stack is fabricated. We have studied stack performance evaluation under various operating conditions and it has been verified that the proposed design can achieve acceptable stack performance at a wide operating range.
