  • 항공기 엔진부품을 생산하는 제조산업은 전통적인 주문형 제조방식을 따르며, 다품종 소량생산시스템이다. 또한 생산공장의 배치는 유사한 기능을 가지는 병렬 기계들이 공정별 배치 형태로 구성되어 있고 조립공정이 포함되는 Hybrid Job Shop이다. 더 나아가 다양한 대체장비를 가지고 있으며, 공정 경로도 다양하고, 조립공정도 포함되어 있다. 이와 같은 복잡한 시스템의 생산능력을 검증하기 위해서는 시뮬레이션이 가장 우수한 방법이며, 정확한 모델의 개발을 위해 고도의 시뮬레이션 모델링기술이 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 위에서 언급한 복잡한 특성을 가진 생산시스템을 효과적으로 모델링하기 위한 방법론을 소개하고, 실제 항공기부품 생산업체를 대상으로 시뮬레이션 연구를 수행한 사례에 대해 소개한다.

  • This paper presents a new conceptual design model ACAD (Adaptable Conceptual Aircraft Design), which differs from the other models due to its considerable adaptability to the different classes of aircraft. Another significant feature is the simplicity of the process which leads to the preliminary design outputs and also allowing a substantial autonomy in design choices. The model performs the aircraft design in terms of total weight, weight of aircraft subsystems, airplane and engine performances, and basic aircraft configuration layout. Optimization processes were implemented to calculate the wing aspect ratio and to perform the design requirements fulfillment. In order to evaluate the model outcomes, different test cases are presented: a STOL ultralight airplane, a new commuter with open-rotor engines and a last generation fighter.

  • Gas turbines operating in dusty or sandy environment polluted with micron-sized solid particles are highly prone to blade surface erosion damage in compressor stages and molten sand attack in the hot-sections of turbine stages. Commercial/Military fixed-wing aircraft engines and helicopter engines often have to operate over sandy terrains in the middle eastern countries or in volcanic zones; on the other hand gas turbines in marine applications are subjected to salt spray, while the coal-burning industrial power generation turbines are subjected to fly-ash. The presence of solid particles in the working fluid medium has an adverse effect on the durability of these engines as well as performance. Typical turbine blade damages include blade coating wear, sand glazing, Calcia-Magnesia-Alumina-Silicate (CMAS) attack, oxidation, plugged cooling holes, all of which can cause rapid performance deterioration including loss of aircraft. The focus of this research work is to simulate particle-surface kinetic interaction on typical turbomachinery material targets using non-linear dynamic impact analysis. The objective of this research is to understand the interfacial kinetic behaviors that can provide insights into the physics of particle interactions and to enable leap ahead technologies in material choices and to develop sand-phobic thermal barrier coatings for turbine blades. This paper outlines the research efforts at the U.S Army Research Laboratory to come up with novel turbine blade multifunctional protective coatings that are sand-phobic, sand impact wear resistant, as well as have very low thermal conductivity for improved performance of future gas turbine engines. The research scope includes development of protective coatings for both nickel-based super alloys and ceramic matrix composites.

  • A modular multidisciplinary analysis and optimization framework has been built with the goal of performing conceptual design of an advanced efficient supersonic air vehicle. This paper addresses the specific challenge of designing this type of aircraft for a long range, supersonic cruise mission with a payload release. The framework includes all the disciplines expected for multidisciplinary supersonic aircraft design, although it also includes disciplines specifically required by an advanced aircraft that is tailless and has embedded engines. Several disciplines have been developed at multifidelity levels. The framework can be readily adapted to the conceptual design of other supersonic aircraft. Favorable results obtained from running the analysis framework for a B-58 supersonic bomber test case are presented as a validation of the methods employed.

  • Airplane fuel takes large portion of airline operation cost and recently it has been grown up to about 25% of operating cost. So airlines are making efforts to reduce fuel consumption continuously and also aircraft manufacturers are making efforts to develop less fuel-consuming engines but it takes great expenses and times to develop such engines. In this study, fuel requirements of FAR and JAR, especially contingency fuel requirements, are compared and the effectiveness of each method is analyzed.

  • This paper compares the performance of JP-8(Jet Propellant) fuel and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and natural gas in the F110 GE100 jet engine. The cost of natural gas usage in gas turbine engines is lower than JP-8 and LPG. LPG cost is more than JP-8. LPG volume is bigger than JP-8 in the same flight conditions. Fuel tank should be cryogenic for using natural gas in the aircraft. Cost and weight of the cryogenic tanks are bigger. Cryogenic tanks decrease the move capability of the aircraft. The use of jet propellant (JP) is the best in available application for F110 GE 100 jet engine.

  • 국외에서 개발이 진행되고 있거나 완료된 UAV에 적용된 추진기관의 성능 특성을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 총 10종의 UAV의 임무 및 성능 특성을 검토하고 민간항공기 및 군용항공기와 성능 특성을 비교 검토하였다. 또한, UAV 추진기관의 성능 특성을 정리하고 엔진 설계 파라미터에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 추진기관의 추력, SFC 및 설계변수인 압축비, 바이패스비에 대해 민간 및 군용항공기 엔진과 비교하여 검토하였으며, 본 연구를 통해 UAV에 따른 설계 파라미터를 보다 잘 이해할 수 있었다.

  • Passengers and Airlines wish neither delay nor cancellation due to aircraft defects. However, about 1 delay or cancellation case occurs out of 100 departures worldwide whereas 1 quarter case does in Korean domestic industry. Independent LCC carriers in Korea have almost double case. Most cases are recovered by replacing aircraft components. Airlines have prepared the spare components based on the reliability data by manufacturers to rectify defects or perform preventive maintenances. The total value for initial spares including engine is 40% of the aircraft price when they operate less than 5 aircraft. The more airlines operate the aircraft, the less the ratio of the investment for spares reflecting the economy of scale. This study intends to suggest how to improve the efficiencies as well as the safety of LCC throughout parts pooling including engines.

  • 기지/창 계획정비와 불시 결함발생에 따른 항공기 불가동 최소화를 위해 장착엔진에 추가로 보유하는 엔진이 예비엔진으로 항공기의 적정 가용도 달성을 통한 군사력 유지에 핵심적인 중요성을 지닌다. 본 연구의 목적은 다양한 군용항공기의 유형을 고려한 예비엔진/모듈의 최적 소요를 산출하는 방법을 제시하는 것이다. 먼저, 이 분야의 대표적 접근법인 METRIC과 메타모형에 대하여 각각의 개념, 특징 및 제한사항을 고찰하고 본 연구에서의 접근 방향을 제시하였다. 다음으로, 다양한 군용항공기에 대한 검토를 수행하고 이들을 총 5가지 유형으로 분류하였다. 유형별 계획, 비계획 정비에 대한 상세 분석을 기반으로 관련된 변수와 파라메터들을 도출하였다. 본 문제의 복잡성으로 인해 수식을 이용한 최적해의 도출이 불가능하며, 기지/야전/창 등의 정비로직을 분석한 후 ARENA 기반의 시뮬레이션과 OptQuest를 이용하여 최적소요를 산출하였다. 개발된 시뮬레이션 모델이 일련의 사례들을 통하여 최적해를 효율적으로 도출할 수 있음을 보였다.
