$GO_2$/kerosene을 추진제로 하는 로켓엔진 개발에 사용된 swirl-coaxial injector의 점화초기 및 소염시에 발생하는 파손 원인을 규명하고자 실험용 인젝터를 제작하여 추진제간의 운동량비를 1-12 범위에서 변화시켜가며 화염 부상 거리를 실험적으로 측정하였다. 실험에 사용된 인젝터는 kerosene을 인젝터의 중심에서 접선형 선회기를 통하여 분사되도록 하였으며 그 주위로 $GO_2$를 연소실의 축방향에 수평하게 분사되도록 설계하였다. 연소압을 대기압으로 하여 실험하였으며, 캠코더로 촬영된 이미지로부터 화염의 순간상들을 얻어 측정한 후 이를 평균하여 화염부상거리를 구하였다. 본 연구에서는 추진제간의 운동량비 증가에 따라 화염 부상 거리가 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 추진제간의 운동량비가 과다하게 커지는 경우 분무에 간섭을 일으켜 인젝터 파손의 원인이 됨을 알 수 있었으며, 안정적인 연소시스템 및 인젝터 설계를 위해서는 점화초기 및 소염시 추진제의 공급운동량을 제어할 수 있는 제어시스템이 필수적임을 알 수 있었다.

Hydrogen is evaluated as one of new energy sources that can overcome the limitations and pollution problems of conventional fossil fuels. Although hydrogen is free from CO₂, attention is required in NOx emission and flame stability in order to use hydrogen in existing gas fuel system. This study investigates the differences in operating characteristics and its problems to be modified when the hydrogen is used as fuel for existing domestic boilers and new heat recover boilers with water spray. When the hydrogen is used in domestic boilers, the efficiency is about 6-7% lower than methane due to higher partial vapor pressure in the exhaust gas at usual operating conditions above 60℃ in combustion chamber outlet temperature. On the other hand, the heat recovery boiler with water spray (HR-B/WS-X) is expected to achieve up to 95% efficiency, which is 12% more efficient than conventional boilers. It can also significantly reduce NOx emission by lowering the flame temperature.

현재까지 수소는 주로 천연가스의 연료 개질에 의해 발생된 합성가스를 이용해 생산된다. 합성가스 내의 수소 수율을 높이기 위해선 추가적인 공정이 필요하다. 하지만, 수소의 수율 향상을 위한 공정에는 별도의 에너지원과 경제적 비용이 수반된다. 그러므로 보다 효율적으로 합성가스를 활용하기 위해 그 자체로 혼합물로 이용하는 방법에 관한 관련 연구들이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 30kW급 발전용 스파크 점화 가스엔진에서 메탄/합성가스 혼합물이 엔진의 주요 성능에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 메탄/합성가스 혼합물에 의해서 최대 실린더 내부 압력과 그 때의 크랭크 각도와 같은 엔진 내 연소 현상은 개선되는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 메탄-합성가스 혼합물의 연료 전환 효율은 메탄-수소 혼합물의 약 98% 수준으로 향상시킬 수 있고 질소산화물 배출량은 메탄-수소 혼합물의 약 12%만큼 감소시킬 수 있다.

This paper reports development process of a university-based sounding rocket using simplified hybrid rocket propulsion system for low-altitude flight application. A hybrid propulsion system was tried to be designed with as few components as possible for more economical, simpler and safer propulsion system, which is essential for the small scale sounding rocket operation as a CanSat carrier. Using blow-down feeding system and catalytic ignition as combustion starter, 250 N class hybrid rocket system was composed of three components: a composite tank, valves, and a thruster. With a composite tank filled with both hydrogen peroxide($H_2O_2$) as an oxidizer and nitrogen gas($N_2$) as a pressurant, the feeding pressure was operated in blowdown mode during thruster operation. The $MnO_2/Al_2O_3$ catalyst was fabricated for propellant decomposition, and ground test of propulsion system showed the almost theoretical temperature of decomposed $H_2O_2$ at the catalyst reactor, indicating sufficient catalyst efficiency for propellant decomposition. Auto-ignition of the high density polyethylene(HDPE) fuel grain successfully occurred by the decomposed $H_2O_2$ product without additional installation of any ignition devices. Performance test result was well matched with numerical internal ballistics conducted prior to the experimental propulsion system ground test. A sounding rocket using the developed hybrid rocket was designed, fabricated, flight simulated and launch tested. Six degree-of-freedom trajectory estimation code was developed and the comparison result between expected and experimental trajectory validated the accuracy of the developed trajectory estimation code. The fabricated sounding rocket was successfully launched showing the effectiveness of the simplified hybrid rocket propulsion system.

The purpose of this study is preventing the stick, scuffing, scratch between piston and cylinder in advance, and obtaining data for duration test in actual engine operation. The temperature gradient in cylinder bore according to coolant temperature were measured using $1.5{\ell}$ class diesel engine. 20 thermocouples were installed 2mm deep inside from cylinder wall near top ring of piston in cylinder block, at which points major thermal loads exist. It is suggested as proper measurement points for engine design by industrial engineers. Under full load and $70^{\circ}$, $80^{\circ}C$ and $90^{\circ}C$ coolant temperature conditions, the temperature in cylinder block and engine oil increased gradually according to the increase of coolant temperature, the siamese side temperature of top dead center is $142^{\circ}C$ in peripheral distribution, that is about $20^{\circ}C$ higher than that at thrust, anti-thrust, and rear side temperature, respectively. The maximum pressure of combustion gas in $70^{\circ}C$ coolant temperature is about 2 bar lower than those of $80^{\circ}C$ and $90^{\circ}C$ coolant temperature. The engine torque in $80^{\circ}C$, $90^{\circ}C$ coolant temperature condition is about 4.9Nm higher than that of $70^{\circ}C$ coolant temperature.

For selected (pure and compound) metallic species effects of saturation ratio, temperature, particle size and number density on condensation mechanisms are first reviewed. The tendencies for vaporization and condensation differ between metallic species because of the significant differences in their saturation pressures. Then particle pressure of a metal vapor species at incineration temperature is calculated by simplifying waste as a compound of methane, chlorine and small amounts of metals and assuming a thermodynamic equilibrium state. Next the condition is assessed for which supersaturation of combustion gases by the species above the critical level for homogeneous condensation may occur, when the gases contain a large number of pre-existing particles such as entrained ashes. Regardless of the presence of chlorine in the waste, the homogeneous condensation of PbO vapors may occur, depending on number density of the pre-existing particles. However, when chlorine exists in the waste, the homogeneous condensation of PbCl$_2$vapors does not occur, which is similar to the case of Cd and Hg vapors. Thus these highly volatile species, PbCl$_2$, Cd, and Hg, may emit to atmosphere as vapor phase. In general, for reducing the emission of hazardous metallic species into the atmosphere, the number density of pre-existing particles has to be increased. For fixed particle number density, the temperature drop rate must be kept in low if the temperature at which a condensable vapor species emits from a incineration system is fixed, while the temperature drop rate must be kept in high if the residence time for which a condensable species stays in the system is fixed.

To develop an engineering-model of hydrogen-fueled ultra-micro combustor for Ultra Micro Gas Turbine(UMGT), we reviewed and summarized the problems in downsizing combustors, and determined a suitable burning method. The key issue to actualize practical ultra-micro combustors is reducing heat loss from the combustor to compressor and turbine. The reduction of heat loss was discussed from 3 different viewpoints; heat-insulation material, high-space-heating-rate combustion, and combustor-insolated gas turbine structure. Use of heat-insulation material induced the heat loss reduction to the surroundings. The heat loss ratio decreased substantially in reverse proportion to space heating rate, leading the idea that it could be reduced by burning at a high space heating rate. By settling the combustor insolated from the compressor and turbine, the heat transfer from the combustor to the compressor and turbine becomes smaller. For a selection of the suitable burning method, comparison between 2 burning methods, flat-flame and swirling-flamer types, was conducted. Synthetically the flat-flame burning method was confirmed to be more suitable for ultra-micro combustors than latter one. Base on them, an engineering-model of hydrogen-fueled flat-flame ultra-micro combustor was developed. To obtain high overall heat-insulation, heat-resistant and strength, the engineering-model combustor had triple layer structure with an advanced ceramic, a heat insulation material and a stainless steel. To simplify heat transfer issue in the combustor, it was isolated from the other components. Furthermore it was designed by considering structure, size, material, velocity, pressure loss and prevention of flashback.

액체로켓엔진의 최적화를 위해 유전알고리즘을 사용하여 주요 설계변수인 연료와 산화제의 질유량과 연소실 압력을 결정하였다. 대상엔진은 LO2/RP-1을 추진제로 사용하는 개방형 가스발생기 사이클을 대상으로 하였다. 최적설계의 목적함수는 비추력의 최대화이고 펌프-터빈의 에너지 발란스와 요구추력을 제한조건으로 하였다. 연소실의 물성치는 CEA2를 이용하였으며 펌프 및 터빈의 효율, 가스발생기 및 예연소기의 물성치는 문헌 자료를 수학적으로 모델링 하였다. 가스발생기 사이클 계산 결과 참고문헌과 비교하여 비추력에서 약 3~4%, 펌프파워에서 2~6%의 오차를 보였다.
