The structural analysis of liquid rocket engine was performed in the case of sinusoidal vibration load to verify structural safety. The finite element model is composed with main liquid rocket engine components, combustion chamber, turbopump, gas-generator, pyro-starter, main pipes, main valve, heat-exchanger, gimbal-mount and brackets. Natural vibration mode analysis and structural analysis for sinusoidal vibration load were performed. The natural mode frequency of liquid rocket engine is twice than that of launch vehicle. In the case of stress result of sinusoidal vibration load, the part of maximum stress has 1.4 margin, so the engine structure is safe for sinusoidal vibration load.

DLN-2.6 combustion tuning was carried out for the maintenance of GE 7FA+e gas turbine at Seo-Incheon combined cycle power plant. DLN-2.6 combustion system has the higher level of yellow plume and combustion vibration problem in the initial operating mode than that of the base mode($100{\sim}160MW$). The objectives of this study are to investigate the causes of yellow plume and combustion vibration problems at the starting mode and to suggest the best operating condition for the reliable working of the real combustors. By the analysis of tuning data, we could conclude that a yellow plume is caused by the rich mixture(${\phi}{\sim}1$) in a PM 1 nozzle at mode 3($20{\sim}30MW$). In addition, the combustion vibration($120{\sim}140Hz$) might be related to the cold flow characteristics of PM 3 nozzles at mode 6B($40{\sim}45MW$).

가스히터의 연소로부터 발생하는 소음 및 진동의 주원인은 연소소음(combustion roar)과 연소진동음(combustion oscillation)이다. 연소음의 특징은 음압이 넓은 주파수대에 걸쳐 비교적 일정하게 분포하고 있다. 본 논문에서 언급하고 있는 가스히터 초기 조건에서 볼 수 있는 상황으로 소음레벨이 낮고 진동 문제도 발생하지 않는다. 반면 연소진동음은 연소실내 기체의 고유진동수에 대하여 버너계가 Positive Feedback을 일으켜 공진할 때 발생되는 소음 및 진동이다. 연소진동의 발생 원인은 앞서 지적한 바와 같이, 연소할 때의 연소 진동수와 연소실의 구조적 고유진동수가 일치하면 큰 진동 및 소음을 발생시킨다. 따라서 소음 및 진동을 해결 할 수 있는 방법은 두 개의 고유진동수가 일치하지 않도록 하는 방법을 강구하여야 한다. 첫 번째 방법으로는 버너에서 연료와 공기량의 비율을 변화 시켜 진동수를 변화 시키거나, 연료와 공기의 통로길이, 연소실내에서의 연료와 공기의 혼합속도를 변화 시키는 방법이 있다. 두 번째 방법으로, 연소실의 고유진동수를 변화 시키는 방법으로 연소실의 길이나 덕트의 길이를 변경시켜 고유진동수의 주파수를 변경시키는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 연소실의 조건을 변경하여 공명을 회피하는 방법을 채택하였고, 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Acoustic coupled combustion instability, which is one of the most undesirable phenomena in the development of liquid propellant rocket engine, can cause serious damage to a rocket itself, and must be avoided by all means. Unfortunately, KSR-III rocket went through combustion instability during engine start at the propulsion test article No.2. To resolve the problem, time sequence (cyclogram) has been changed, and baffle system has been applied. In consequence of change, stable combustion was achieved.

A solid kick motor is used for propulsion system of KSLV-I 2nd stage. During combustion of the kick motor, vibration and shock could be generated. And it could be transferred to the vehicle equipment bay through the kick motor body. If vibration and shock transferred to the vehicle equipment bay are considerable, electrical equipments could be disordered. Therefore we need to verify influence of vibration and shock caused by combustion of the kick motor. In this research, we measured vibration of the kick motor on the ground firing test. Based on this measurement data, we analyzed random vibration and shock response spectrum.

The objective of this study is to examine the onset condition and the frequency characteristics of the low-frequency combustion oscillation in a surface burner. For this purpose, extensive parametric studies have been performed experimentally and the effects of size of each section, the equivalence ratio, and the entrance velocity on oscillatory behavior explored. The experimental results were discussed in comparison with the other combustors associated tilth the low-frequency combustion oscillation. The combustion mode is driven at high combustion rate by the lift of unstable flame near the lower limit of the combustible equivalence ratio. The oscillation frequency is dependent not on the burner geometry but on the equivalence ratio and the combustion load. Low-frequency combustion mode was formed to be divided into two different modes, named C1 and C2 respectively. Two modes occurred individually, simultaneously or transitionally according to the equivalence ratio and combustion load. The characteristics of low-frequency oscillation is different from each other depending on the type of combustors. The surface burner has also its own characteristics of low -frequency oscillation.

The objective of this paper is to get excitation forces of the engine at each of the brackets for the prediction of the vehicle interior noise by the powertrain. A powertrain geometry model is produced by CATIA and its FE model is made by MSC/Patran. A vibration mode analysis and a running mode analysis are experimentally implemented. After getting a satisfied MAC value by doing a correlation about a measured mode analysis value and analyzed value through MSC/Nastran software, all components are assembled through MSC/ADAMS software which is a dynamic analysis tool. We can predict the vibration of brackets which is the last points to occur the force of the engine combustion by analyzing the combustion force produced by engine mechanism.

In this paper, we study the analytical method to predict the excitation forces for the engine system. The engine system on the construction equipment is one of the important power sources, and the characteristics of the engine decide the performance of noise and vibration for the equipment. We predict the excitation forces using the geometrical data of the crank system and the combustion pressure in the cylinder. The excited forces are represented by the torque fluctuation above the center of the crank shaft.
