An experimental study was performed to understand spray characteristics of the slinger injector. system for the micro turbojet engine. In this fuel injection system, fuel is sprayed and atomized in the combustor by centrifugal forces of engine shaft. This experimental apparatus consist of a high speed rotating Spindle, slinger injector, pressure tank and acrylic case. The droplet size and velocity were measured by PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) and spray was visualized by using Nd-Yag laser-based flash photography. From the test results, the droplet size(SMD) is largely affected to rotational speed, mass flow rate and the number of injection orifice. From the this experimental study, we could understand the spray characteristics of the slinger injection system and obtain the optimum shape of the slinger injector nozzle which is suitable for the micro turbojet engine.

Manufacturers of aircraft engines have introduced computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to operate and control computerized numerical control (CNC) machine tools. However, the generation of a CAM model is a time consuming and error-prone task since machining procedure and operational details are manually defined. For the automatic generation of a CAM model, feature recognition techniques have been widely studied. However, their recognition coverage is limited so that complex shapes such as a jet engine cannot be fully developed. This study presents a novel approach to quickly generate a CAM model from a CAD model using shape search techniques. Once an operator sets a machining operation as a reference operation, the same shapes as the shapes referenced by the operation are searched. The reference operation is copied to the positions of the searched shapes. The proposed method was verified through experiments with a jet engine compressor case.

The moisture in the atmosphere exerts a lot of influence upon Gas turbine engine performances. There is a noticeable influence of wet air at the summer sea level, high flight mach number and low engine rpm increasingly. An altitude Engine Test Facility is used to accomplish the engine performance tests at dry air condition and wet air condition, through which engine performance results is revealed. In the result, net thrust and specific fuel consumption measured -2.826% and 1.325%, respectively at wet air condition compared to dry air condition.

In this study, a performance analysis code was developed for the off-design performance analysis of air turbo ramjet(ATR) engine, and the analyses were performed for the pre-designed ATR engine at several operating points in the envelope. Variable intake and thrust nozzle were assumed to cover the wide envelope. Mathematical models for each components were developed to calculate their off-design performance. Simple design formulas were introduced for some components to explore the performance variation versus the design parameters. As a result, the pre-defined engine couldn't cover the entire mission profile. And it was also found that the effect of the pre-cooler was not very great, especially in the region of low Mach number.

A full rig combustor test and altitude ignition test were carried out for radial-annular combustor of micro turbojet engine. 11.2% total pressure loss and 99.85% of combustion efficiency were measured at design point of engine under sea level standard condition and $2{\sim}6$ of air excess ratio for ignition envelope was achieved on engine starting regime. Finally, A 30,000 ft high altitude ignition test was also performed and finally we found out that the developed radial-annular combustor is appropriate to micro turbojet engine.

Infrared signal measurement are conducted from a micro-turbo jet engine with different nozzle configurations. The conventional cone type, a S-shaped type with aspect ratio 5.2 and five rectangular type nozzle with different aspect ratios are used for this experiment work. The result show that infrared signal from the exhaust gas decrease as the aspect ratio increase. In case of S-shaped nozzle, the maximum infrared signal is reduced about 28.4% when compared of rectangular nozzle with aspect ratio 5(AR5).

DARPA's hypersonic propulsion program VULCAN is aimed for development of Mach 4+ capable engine by combining current production turbofan engine such as F119 with CVC (Constant Volume Combustion) engine. Final goal is a TBCC(Turbo-based Combined Cycle) engine by combining with dual mode ramjet/scramjet engine. CVC is a common designation of new concept of high efficiency engines, such as Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) or Continuous Detonation Engine (CDE), which use the detonation as a combustion mechanism. Present paper introduces the internationally collaborative research activities carried out in Aerospace Combustion and Propulsion Laboratory of the department of Aerospace Engineering of the Pusan national University.

최적의 액체 램제트 연소기 설계를 위하여 흡입공기와 분무, 혼합 그리고 이에 따른 연소의 일련의 과정이 일어나는 램제트 연소기의 유동해석을 2차원 및 3차원으로 수행하였다. 격자구성은 연소기에 공기를 공급하고 연료를 분무하는 공기 유입관 영역과 연소실 및 노즐 영역, 그리고 출구 대기 영역으로 나누어 독자적으로 격자를 생성시켰다. 연소실 내의 유동 특성에 있어서 2차원과 3차원의 유동해석 결과는 선회영역 유동특성이 크게 차이가 남을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 실제 액체 램제트 연소기의 설계를 위해서는 3차원 유동해석과 실험이 반드시 필요하다.
