A fuel pump for a turbopump system has been designed under an international co-work program. The liquid methane fuel pump has an inducer, in front of centrifugal impeller blades, to improve cavitation performance. The three dimensional viscous flow in the fuel pump was investigated through numerical computation. An arrangement of the inducer and impeller has yielded a strong interaction between inducer and impeller blades. The performance of the pump was evaluated from the calculated results. A parametric study was performed for various design variables, and it could oner a database for design parameters to design a fuel pump. A modified design of a fuel pump was proposed by KIMM to improve pump performance.

Structural and dynamic analyses of inducer and impeller for a oxidizer turbopump are peformed to investigate the safety level of strength and vibration at design point. Due to high rotational speed of turbopump, effects of centrifugal forces are carefully considered in the structural analysis. Hydrodynamic pressure is also considered as an external force applied to inducer and impeller blades. A three dimensional finite element method(FEM) is used for linear and nonlinear structural analyses with modified Newton-Raphson iteration method. After the nonlinear trim solution is obtained from the structural analysis, dynamic characteristics are obtained as a function of rotational speed from the linearized eigenvalue analysis at an equilibrium position. According to the results of numerical analysis, the safety margins of strength and vibration resonances m sufficient enough to be operated safely within the required life cycle.

This study presents the design of small size turbo-compressor to increase the performance using computational fluid analysis. A three dimensional computation was conducted changing the main parameters of impeller blade and diffuser shape, respectively, and the design was performed on a basis analysis of result of that. As a result, the Improved shapes show the increase of efficiency in comparison with the existing shape. This study will be used as useful reference data to establish the design concept of the small size turbo-compressor and to improve its performance.

The object of present study is to find the flow characteristics of centrifugal turbomachinery according to the volute shape change. The experiments were carried out for two model; volute-A designed by free vortex conditions and volute-B designed for use in high mass flow rate conditions using the volute-A test results, Flow measurements were taken in shrouded impeller with 12 backward type blades by using a five-hole pilot-tube and carried out in 4 flow rate, $Q/Q_d\;=0,43,\;1.0,\;1.27,\;1,47$, respectively, For volute-B, we found that pressure distribution was more uniform at high flow rate and from $Q/Q_d\;:\;0,43\;to\;Q/Q_d\;:\;1,20$, losses decreased and efficiency increased compare with volute-A.

The study was performed to search on alternative material for turbopump parts made of Russian material by analyzing and comparing chemical and mechanical material properties. Iron base material was generally used for turbopump. This material can be categorized into stainless steel and heat resisting steel by quantity of additional elements. Each steel was also classified into austenite steel, ferrite steel, and martensite steel. Alternative materials for turbopump inducer, impeller and casing are chosen by JIS SUS 631 and 321 as a result of this study. Because the material of Russian turbopump turbine may be developed by Russia itself, alternative material can be hardly found. However, Inconel 718 for turbine material is thought to be proper in the aspect of hardness considering general use of this material for turbopump turbine in Japan and France.

A small-sized turbocharger is generally used in downsizing engine for various vehicles. When a centrifugal compressor, which is one of the crucial units of the turbocharger, is downsized, the compressor has much more possibilities of being damaged because of its high rotating speed, causing insecure structural soundness. Thus, it is of essential to study on the improvement of the structural soundness of a small-sized turbocharger. In this study, numerical analysis on the various blade geometries and mass flow rate of the compressor was performed using the commercial software ANSYS CFX. In addition, the evaluation on the structural soundness of a compressor impeller for respective cases was conducted using ANSYS Mechanical. As a result, it was shown that the compressor had higher efficiency with increasingly secured structural soundness.

The design technique of turbo pumps has been developed due to an increasing demand from related industrial fields. But infant stage of turbomachinery in the domestic industry needs more fundamental design method. Among various types of pumps, centrifugal pump was chosen because of its wide industrial application. It is difficult to decide the correct specification of centrifugal impeller, because of its complex flow analysis at the inlet, passage and outlet. This study is limited on the impeller blade design and its related performance analysis.

Hydraulic performance and cavitation characteristics of fuel pump in turbo-pump were studied experimentally. The fuel pump has a centrifugal impeller with a separate inducer. In this paper, flow characteristics of inducer and impeller was experimentally investigated separately and together. Especially static pressure distribution of Inducer was examined in non-cavitation and cavitation conditions.

액체로켓용 연료펌프의 설계를 검증하기 위해 상용 3차원 유동해석 소프트웨어를 이용하여 설계점 성능을 예측하였다. 연료펌프의 성능과 축추력에 영향을 미치는 누설유량에 대한 예측의 정확도를 높이기 위해 인듀서, 임펠러, 볼류트 및 2차 유로를 계산영역으로 설정하였으며 인듀서/임펠러/누설유로/볼류트 사이의 경계면에 혼합면 기법을 적용하여 계산에 소요되는 시간을 줄이고자 하였다. 유동해석을 통해 예측된 수력성능은 설계요구조건을 만족시키는 것으로 나타났으나 축추력이 허용치에 비해 크게 예측되어 이를 감소시키기 위한 설계변경이 이루어졌다. 변경된 설계안에 대한 유동해석을 수행한 결과 연료펌프의 수력성능은 유지되면서 축추력은 처음의 설계안에 비해 30% 수준으로 크게 감소하였음을 확인할 수 있었다.

축추력의 효과적인 제어는 터보펌프의 작동 안정성을 확보하는 데 중요한 기술 중 하나이다. 현재 개발 중인 75톤급 로켓엔진용 연료펌프에 대한 축추력 측정을 상온의 물을 매질로 하여 실시하였다. 시험 결과, 연료펌프의 축추력은 펌프 베어링의 축방향 하중 조건을 만족하는 것으로 예상되었다. 또한 연료펌프의 축추력은 대체로 유량이 작을수록 커졌다. 그리고 플로팅 링 실과 임펠러 사이의 간극이 바뀌었을 때, 연료펌프의 축방향 하중과 후방 누설 유량이 변화하는 것을 확인하였다.
