터보펌프 인듀서에서 레이놀즈 수가 캐비테이션 성능에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 연구하였다. 인듀서 입구에서 압력을 측정하여 캐비테이션 수에 따른 양정계수 변화를 구하였다. 물의 온도와 인듀서 회전수를 변화시켜 일정한 무차원 열적 변수에서 레이놀즈 수를 변경시켜 캐비테이션 성능을 측정하였다. 낮은 무차원 열적 변수에서는 캐비테이션 성능 곡선이 레이놀즈 수 변화에 영향을 받지 않는다. 하지만 높은 무차원 열적 변수에서는 레이놀즈 수가 증가함에 따라 임계 캐비테이션 수가 증가하였다.

Effects of a booster inducer on the suction performance of turbopumps are investigated in this paper. To see the effect of the booster inducer, suction performance tests are conducted with and without the booster inducer for three turbopumps. It is shown that the booster inducer can enhance the suction performance of turbopumps when the tip clearance of the main inducers are relatively large. Numerical analysis are also carried out to see the effects of the booster inducer on the performance of the main inducer. The booster inducer is shown to increase the static pressure at the inlet of the main inducer and prevent growing of inlet back flows which are believed to have deleterious effects on the suction performance of the inducer.

Computational and experimental studies on a forward-sweep inducer for turbopumps were performed to see the effect of the blade sweep on the suction performance of the inducer. Computational results show that backflows at the inlet decrease in the case of the forward-sweep inducer by inhibiting pre-rotation of the inflow and the low pressure region near the tip also diminishes, which is presumed to improve the suction performance of the inducer. The predicted suction performance of the inducer is compared with the experimental result. The result shows that the computation overestimates the suction performance of the inducer compared to the value from the experiment.

The effects of inducer tip clearance on the suction performance of a pump for turbopumps are investigated. Experiments for the pump with inducer tip clearances of 1.8% and 1.4% of blade height were performed. The experimental results showed that the suction performance of the pump increased as the tip clearance decreased. It seems that the suction performance of the pump becomes better with smaller tip clearances because the strength of the inducer backflow becomes weak with the decreased tip clearance.

본 연구에서는 터보펌프 인듀서 주변의 극저온 유동장에 대한 수치해석을 주로 다룬다. 이를 위해 수치해석에 사용된 수치기법에 대한 내용을 우선 다룬다. 수치기법에 대한 검증 문제로 2차원/축대칭 극저온 유동문제를 해석하였고 이 과정에서 다양한 공동모델에 대한 비교 연구를 수행하였다. 마지막으로 3차원 터보펌프 인듀서에 대한 수치해석을 수행하고, 실험 결과와 타 연구결과와 비교함과 동시에 극저온 유체에서 나타나는 공동현상의 특징을 살펴보았다.

The hydraulic performance analysis of a pump system composed of an inducer and impeller for the application on turbopumps has been performed using three-dimensional Wavier-Stokes equations. A simple mixing-plane method and a full interaction method are used to simulate inducer/impeller interactions. The computations adopting two methods show almost similar results due to the weak interaction between the inducer and impeller since the inducer outlet blade angle is rather small. But, because the inducer and the impeller are closely spaced near the shroud region at the interface, flow angles at the impeller inlet show different results between two methods. Thus, the full interaction method predicted about $2\%$ higher pump performance than the mixing-plane method. And the effects of prewhirl at the impeller inlet are also investigated. As the inlet flow angle is increased, the head rise and the efficiency are decreased. The computational results are compared with experimental ones. The computational results at the design point show good agreements with experimental data. But the computation was found to under-predict the head rise at high mass flow rates compared to the experiment, further study must be followed in terms of the computation and experiment.

The hydraulic performance analysis of a turbopump with an inducer for a liquid rocket engine was performed using three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. A simple mixing-plane method and a full interaction method were used to simulate inducer/impeller interaction. Two methods show almost similar results due to the weak interaction between the inducer and impeller since the inducer outlet blade angle is lather small. But, when the inducer and the impeller are closely spaced near the shroud region, flow angles at the impeller inlet show different results between two methods. Thus, the full interaction method predicts about $2\%$ higher pump performance than the mixing-plane method. And the effects of prewhirl at the impeller inlet are also investigated. As the inlet flow angle is increased, the head rise and the efficiency are decreased. The computational results are compared with measured ones. The computational results at the design point show good agreements with experimental data, however under-predicts the head rise at high mass flow rates compared to the experiment.

베어링 지지부가 터보펌프용 인듀서의 성능에 미치는 영향에 대하여 실험적 및 계산적 연구가 수행되었다. 양정, 효율, 인듀서 슈라우드 압력 분포 등을 측정하였으며 유동해석 계산결과와 비교하였다. 유동해석결과는 실험결과와 비교하여 전체적으로 잘 일치하는 결과를 얻었다. 그러나 입구의 역류가 심해지는 저유량 작동조건에서는 계산값과 시험값이 다소의 차이를 보였다. 역류가 심해지는 저유량에서 베어링 지지부가 역류의 발달을 방해하여 인듀서의 수력성능을 향상시키는 것을 관찰하였으며, 베어링 지지부의 설치는 흡입성능에 큰 영향을 미치지 못함을 확인하였다.
