Marine sea water pump with impeller using carbon fiber block was developed to prevent the impeller corrosion by the salinity. A numerical analysis was carried out in order to optimize the impeller and volute design for marine sea water pump and to investigate the sensitivity of the related parameters(impeller thickness, surface roughness) using CFD commercial code. The impeller thickness is limited because of the weight. Since the impeller using the carbon fiber lights, the thickness which has a maximum efficiency can be used. The results show that the surface roughness leads to an 7% reduction in pump efficiency.

An analysis was conducted to predict the hydraulic performance of a reactor coolant pump (RCP) of SMART at the off-design as well as design points. In order to reduce the analysis time efficiently, a single passage containing an impeller and a diffuser was considered as the computational domain. A stage scheme was used to perform a circumferential averaging of the flux on the impeller-diffuser interface. The pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the pump was determined and was used to compute the head, efficiency, and break horse power (BHP) of a scaled-down model under conditions of steady-state incompressible flow. The predicted curves of the hydraulic performance of an RCP were similar to the typical characteristic curves of a conventional mixed-flow pump. The complex internal fluid flow of a pump, including the internal recirculation loss due to reverse flow, was observed at a low flow rate.

진공 시스템의 기저상태를 지배하는 것은 대부분의 경우 용기 내면에 수십 단원자 층 정도로 흡착되어 있는 물이다. 용기 압력이 10-9 mbar 대가 될 때까지는 잔류기체의 90% 이상이 수분이고 압력을 10분의 1로 떨어뜨리려면 10배의 시간이 더 필요하다는 소위 1/t 법칙은 광범위한 흡착에너지를 가지는 물분자의 표면방출 특성으로 잘 설명되어진다. 용기가열 등 적극적인 표면처리를 하지 않고 전형적인 압력변화 양상은 그대로 유지하면서 절대적인 시간을 줄이는 가장 직접적인 방법은 물 배기속도를 가능한 한 높이는 것이지만 대부분의 고진공 펌프들에서 물배기속도만 더 증가하도록 만드는 것은 쉽지 않다. 크라이오 워터펌프(CWP: cryo-water pump)는 바로 이런 고민을 제대로 해결할 수 있는 유일한 실용적인 방안이라고 말할 수 있다. 다른 기체분자들의 배기는 일단 염두에 두지 않고 물배기만을 열심히 해서 배기시간을 단축하고 도달 진공도를 낮추는 것을 목표로 하는 장치가 CWP이다. CWP는 모든 기체에 반응하는 정통적인 크라이오 펌프에 비해 훨씬 간단하고 저렴하게 만들 수 있으면서도 진공 시스템에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있지만 그동안은 물배기의 필요성에 대한 인식이 미흡하고, 또 부수적이고 추가적인 비용이 드는 것으로 생각되어 주목을 받지 못했지만 디스플레이와 반도체 산업을 필두로 물분압을 낮추고 생산수율을 높이는 것에 점점 더 관심이 높아지면서 CWP에 대한 수요도 높아지고 있다. CWP의 물배기는 아주 단순한 응축현상에 의존하므로 물리적으로 이해하고 성능을 예측하는 것이 직관적이지만 사용용도에 따라 물 이외의 기체분자들은 잘 통과시키면서 물배기는 최대화하는 최적설계가 요구되거나 터보분자펌프(TMP)와 같이 이질적인 고진공펌프와 조합하여 사용하는 경우 기체 온도 의존성을 고려해야 하는 등 까다로운 점이 있다. 본 보고에서는 CWP+TMP로 구성된 복합진공배기시스템을 설계하면서 CWP만의 물배기성능과 복합 시스템의 물 및 알곤 배기성능을 예측하고, 두 펌프의 상호관계에 대해 분석하며, 실제 만들어진 복합배기시스템을 사용하여 실험적으로 구한 물 및 알곤 배기속도 측정결과에 대해서도 간단하게 논의하려고 한다.

한국표준과학연구원에서는 국제표준화기구에서 제정한 국제규격(ISO, PNEUROP, DIN, JIS, AVS 등)에 기반을 둔 터보분자펌프의 특성평가시스템을 자체적으로 설계/제작 하였고, 터보분자펌프 1,000 L/s 급의 Database를 구축하였다. 이것을 토대로 특성평가시스템의 신뢰성 확인과 Feedback을 통한 시제품 개발 및 평가지원을 위해 터보분자펌프 2,500L/s 급의 Database를 구축한다. 터보분자펌프의 배기성능을 나타내는 가장 중요한 항목인 배기속도는 분자류 영역에 따라 상이한 가스($N_2$, He)를 사용하여 Throughput method와 Orifice method 두 가지 방법을 병행하여 측정한다. 측정함에 있어서 측정게이지, 유량계 및 Orifice conductance의 불확도에 의하여 배기 속도에 많은 측정오차를 포함하고 있다. 측정 오차를 줄이기 위하여 1% 이상의 안정성과 4%의 오차만을 허용하는 자전 회전자게이지(SRG)와 $10^{-3}$ mbar-L/s 영역까지의 유량 주입범위를 가지는 불확도 ${\pm}$3%의 정적형 유량시스템(CVFM)을 사용하였다. Orifice method의 경우 고진공영역으로 진입할수록 커질 수밖에 없는 배기속도 측정 불확도를 최소화하기 위해 검증된 유량을 이용한 Conductance 값을 제시하여 두 방법에서 얻은 배기속도의 불연속적인 문제를 해결한다. 본 연구에서는 2,500 L/s 급 터보분자펌프는 무거운 기체 $N_2$와 가벼운 기체 He을 사용하여 압축비의 변화와 분자류 영역에 따른 배기속도 변화를 연구하고, 2,500 L/s 급 터보분자펌프의 측정능력을 검증한다. 차후에 배기속도뿐만 아니라 소비전력, 소음, 진동, 온도 등의 특성평가의 전반적인 사항을 평가하여 터보분자펌프 2,500 L/s 급의 database를 완비해간다. 터보분자펌프 특성평가시스템을 사용한 1,000 L/s 급과 2,500 L/s 급 특성 Data를 비교, 분석하여 신뢰성 파악 및 표준화 방안을 개발하고, 고진공펌프 개발 주체와의 feedback 지원 기능의 infra를 구축한다.

An optimal design of the gas generator for Liquid Rocket Engine (LRE) was conducted. A fuel-rich gas generator in open cycle turbopump system was designed for 10ton in thrust with RP-1/LOx propellant. The optimal design was done for maximizing specific impulse of thrust chamber with constraints of combustion temperature and for matching the power requirement of turbopump system. Design variables are total mass flow rate to gas generator, O/F ratio in gas generator, turbine injection angle, partial admission ratio, and turbine rotational speed. Results of optimal design provide length, diameter, and contraction ratio of gas generator. And the operational condition predicted by design code with resulting configuration was found to maximize the objective function and to meet the design constraints. The results of optimal design will be tested and verified with combustion experiments.

Stormwater pipe systems are most commonly used to discharge rainwater from the urban catchment covered by the impervious area. To design stormwater pipe and rainwater pumping station, frequency analysis is implemented using historical rainfall and the design rainfall is timely distributed using theoretical shape such as Huff distribution. This method cannot consider the rainfall intensity variation caused by climate change which is type of uncertainty. Therefore, in this study, runoff from Gasan1 stormwater pumping stations catchment is calculated using design rainfall distributed by the 2nd quartile distribution method and the historical rainfall events. From the analysis, the nodal flooding in the urban catchment is likely caused by the high peak rainfall event rather than the large amount of rainfall. The linear regression analysis is implemented. As a result, when several storms have the same amount of rainfall, the nodal flooding in the stormwater pipe systems could be caused by the high peak of storm events. Since as the storm duration become short, the peak rainfall become high, the nodal flooding likely become severe with the short storm duration. The uncertainty in the peak data of design rainfall is analyzed and this uncertainty has to be consider in the stormwater pipe design process.

A CFD code was developed to investigate the inception of cavitation around impeller blades of centrifugal fuel pump using two dimensional cascade modeling. With the verification test for numerical validity of the developed code, the prediction of the onset of cavitation was made for the configuration of a newly designed KHP fuel pump. The calculation results show impeller design was free of cavitation if the pump operates within the operational temperature and rotational speed range. However, the cavitation would be relatively easy to occur at off design region of fuel pump where the rotational speed is higher than design limit. Specially, the onset of cavitation is sensitively dependent on the increase in fuel temperature while the decrease in temperature will reduce the possibility of cavitation inception in the pump.

We aimed to develop a non-clogging submersible slurry pump with two blades to replace the conventional vortex pump. To do this, we simulated the effect of parameters such as the blade angle $\beta$ and the blade-length angle $\alpha$ on pump efficiency. We used the commercial codes ANSYS CFX and BladeGen. The results showed that the best blade shape was obtained for $\beta$ = $30^{\circ}$ and that the pump efficiency was proportional to $\alpha$ in the simulated range.

This study was performed to develop a high efficiency submersible axial pump for concentration wastewater treatment. To do this, we simulated the effect of some parameters such as the axial twist angle of a blade(${\beta}$), the radial twist angle of a blade(${\alpha}$) and the length of a blade (l) on pump efficiency using commercial code, ANSYS CFX and BladeGen. The results showed that the axial twist angle of a blade(${\beta}$) was the most sensible parameter on the pump efficiency. And the pump efficiency had a maximum at ${\beta}=20^{\circ}$, ${\alpha}=110^{\circ}$ and l=240 mm.
