로켓 조종장치는 크게 추력방향 조종(TVC, Thrust Vector Control) 장치, 측면추력조종(Lateral Thrust Control) 장치 그리고 공기역학 조종면으로 분류할 수 있다. 조종장치의 공통된 특징은 모터가 작동하거나 유도탄이 비행할 때만 타의 효과가 발생한다는 점이다. 그러므로 조종장치를 개발하기 위해서는 이상류 초음속 유동이나 삼음속 이상의 자유유동(freestream)을 지상에서 효과적으로 모의할 수 있는 지상 시험장치가 필요하다. 이 시험장치에는 초음속 풍동과 유동 시험장치(cold-flow test stand), 그리고 6분력 트러스트 스텐드가 포함된다. 삼성항공은 우주용 추진기관의 성능을 지상에서 간단한 장치를 구현하여 시험할 수 있는 모의연소 시험장치, 노즐유동에 포함된 고체입자를 직접 수집할 수 있는 고체입자 포집장치 등 각종 시험장치를 제작하였다. 이를 바탕으로 차세대 전술유도탄의 핵심기술가운데 하나인 조종장치와 이를 효과적으로 개발하기 위한 지상 시험장치 확보에 착수하고 있다.

Among several methods to solve the unbalanced electric power load, the Ice Storage System (ISS) for the air conditioning is relatively easy to realize and gives big effect on balancing the electric power load. The goals of this study are to develop the practical ISS for the air conditioning through the design, manufacturing and performance test of the experimental ISS (size $0.335m^3$, cold storage capacity 14200 kcal, IPF 0.4). Thermal fluid motion inside the ice storage tank during cooling storage and cooling release are studied. The data are analyzed by the dispersion analysis and optimal design conditions are derived from the result.

The gas jet from a coaxial porous injector for two-phase flows is discharged from the porous surface, which encloses the center liquid jet, and the gas and liquid jet interact with each other physically. The wall injected gas jet transfers the radial momentum effectively while the radial gas jet develops to axial jet, and the performance of atomizing and mixing can be improved. In this study, the Weber number and the ratio of momentum flux were controlled by changing the gas injection area and the mass flow rate of the gas jet, and a study on the spray characteristics at the cold-flow test using water and air simulant was performed. It is concluded that the radial momentum transfer concept of a coaxial porous injector gives a positive effect on the atomization and mixing of the two-phase spray.

It is important to develop new effective technologies to increase the interruption capacity and to reduce the size of a UB(Gas Circuit Breakers). Major design parameters such as nozzle geometries and interrupting chamber dimensions affect the cooling of the arc and the breaking performance. But it is not easy to test real GCB model in practice as in theory. Therefore, a simulation tool based on a computational fluid dynamics(CFD) algorithm has been developed to facilitate an optimization of the interrupter. Special attention has been paid to the supersonic flow phenomena between contacts and the observation of hat-gas flow for estimating the breaking performance. However, there are many difficult problems in calculating the flow characteristics in a GCB such as shock wave and complex geometries, which may be either static or in relative motion. Although a number of mesh generation techniques are now available, the generation of meshes around complicated, multi-component geometries like a GCB is still a tedious and difficult task for the computational fluid dynamics. This paper presents the CFD program using CFB-CAD integration technique based on Cartesian cut-cell method, which could reduce researcher's efforts to generate the mesh and achieve the accurate representation of the geometry designed by a CAD tools.

In this paper, computer simulations of the physical Phenomena occurring in the arc region before and after current zero were carried out to evaluate the dielectric recovery characteristics of two types of double-flow nozzles. A commercial CFD Program "PHOENICS" is used for the simulation and the user-coded subroutines to consider the arcing phenomena were added to this program by the authors. The computed results were verified by the comparison with the test results presented by the research group of BBC. In order to investigate the state of the arc region after current zero, the simulation was carried out with four steps. They are cold gas flow analysis, steady state arc simulation, transient arc simulation before current zero, transient hot gas flow simulation after current zero. The semi-experimental arc radiation model is adapted to consider the radiation energy transport and Prandtl′s mixing length model is employed as the turbulence model. The electric field and the magnetic field were calculated with the same grid structure used for the simulation of the flow field. The streamer criterion was introduced to evaluate the dielectric recovery characteristics after current zero. Compared with the results obtained by assuming the current zero state in the former studies, it has been found that the results obtained by considering the state before current zerowere more accurate.

This research investigates the internal flow and heat transfer in a plate heat exchanger with chevron shape by utilizing the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. The basic unit of the plate heat exchanger is generally composed of a hot channel, an intermediate chevron plate, and a cold channel. Several studies have reported experimental and numerical simulation of heat transfer and pressure drop. This study focused on the detailed numerical simulation of flow and heat transfer in the complicated chevron shape channel. The long chevron plate was designed to include 16 chevron patterns. For proper mesh resolution, the number of cells was determined after the grid sensitivity test. The working fluid is water, and its properties are defined as a function of temperature. The Reynolds number ranges from 900 to 9,000 in the simulation. A realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ model and non-equilibrium wall function are properly considered for the turbulent flow. The friction factors and heat transfer coefficient are validated by comparing them with existing empirical correlations, and other patterned flow phenomena are also investigated.

PURPOSES : This study aims to develop a sealant for use in the installation of Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) sensor for asphalt concrete or cement concrete pavements. METHODS : In order to investigate the properties of various sealants that were mixed with latex and carbon fiber, various test methods were adopted, such as bituminous bond strength test, softening point test, and cone penetration test. To evaluate moisture susceptibility, the BBS test was conducted under moist condition. The bond strength ratio (BSR) was calculated based on tensile strength ratio method. RESULTS : The sealant's properties significantly varied according to the amount of latex or carbon fiber. The usage of latex marginally enhanced the cone penetration test result, notwithstanding reduced asphalt content. This implies that the sealant will be proper cold temperature reason. Moreover, the addition of latex and carbon fiber evidently increased the softening point. This indicates that the tendency of the material to flow at elevated temperatures is encountered during service. With the addition of latex and carbon fiber, the moisture susceptibility measured with BSR improved marginally, while the bond strength under dry condition decreased marginally. Sealant F displays the highest bond strength and BSR under limited test conditions. CONCLUSIONS : According to the proportion of latex and carbon fiber mixed, properties of sealant, such as softening point, cone penetration, and BSR varied marginally. This indicates that the sealant has to be applied considering the environmental condition, to improve service life.

The small-sized bi-propellant thruster using a high concentrated hydrogen peroxide and kerosene as the oxidizer and fuel was designed and fabricated in this study. The water cold-flow test was performed to verify the performance characteristics of the injector. The mixing head assembly used in this model thruster was designed as a structure to combine igniter, injectors and film cooling, which are capable of regulating each mass flowrate. This maximize the experimental verification and efficiency of the design optimization. Finally, the mass flowrate and spray pattern of injector were evaluated by the hydraulic test. Therefore, the design validity of the mixing head was verified.

In this study, a coaxial swirl injector using hydrogen peroxide and kerosene was designed and combustion performance tests were performed to evaluate combustion characteristic according to mixture ratio. Spray characteristic of the injector was verified by cold flow test and combustion performances according to mixture ratio were evaluated by the characteristic exhaust velocity. Test results showed that the combustion efficiency at the design condition was about 95% and the pressure fluctuation was very small.
