The annular-reverse combustor was designed for APU combustor and a three dimensional analysis for reactive flow in the combustor was performed. At the same time, the experimental work was performed in KARl combustor test facility. In this study we found out that tangential swirl type combustor is good for flame holding than single vortex type combustor. The flame tube main hole size and relative position are very important parameters for combustor general performance. The ignition characteristics are strongly depend on the air fuel ratio with combustor inlet volume flow ratio.

The Model Rocket Engine Test Facility has been improved to develop the Korea Space Launch Vehicle II(KSLV-II). The modified Model Rocket Engine Test Facility will be used to develop 7-tonf class liquid rocket engine combustor. The test result and test technique acquired from this facility will be used to develop the high performance liquid rocket engine combustor. This paper describes the modified Model Rocket Engine Test Facility for a Sub-scale model test of the 7-tonf class combustor.

The design and performance test of a low NOx gas turbine combustor to be used in 55kW class micro-gasturbine engine was performed in KARI's combustion test facility. The combustor is reverse flow-can type for easy installation of injector and other parts and LNG is used as fuel. The performance targets are $99.5\%$ combustion efficiency, less 10ppm NOx, $30\%$ patten factor and $4\%$ pressure loss. Most of the performances required are satisfied.

An aerodynamic design for centrifugal compressor which was applied to medium speed diesel engine has done. First of all, exact compressor specifications must be defined by accurate engine system matching. This matching program has been developed. Using the mean1ine prediction method, geometric design and performance curve for compressor was done and verified by comparing three dimensional viscous CFD results. The deviation at the design point was about 2.3%. Combustor has been designed and manufactured for the performance test of medium speed diesel engine turbocharger. Fuel nozzle of combustor was designed and performed by PIV and PDPA test equipment. Through these results, spray characteristics were studied and flow coefficient equation was deduced.

A 100kW class gas turbine combustor was developed and tested for PPU(Primary Power Unit) of ground vehicle. The combustor which employed annular-reverse type and pressure swirl atomizer was designed through 1-D analysis, 3-D thermal flow analysis and combustor performance was experimentally investigated on the combustor test rig. The test result was satisfactory. The developed combustor was also tested for environmental and endurance specification under engine adopted conditions and the application of a state-of-the-art gas turbine combustor to ground vehicle PPU turned out to be successful.

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the combustion characteristics of the slinger combustor. A combustion test rig was manufactured and installed in KARI combustor test facility. From the ignition test results, we found that there were two major factors influencing the ignition limits; by increasing the rotational speed and the air mass flow rate, a better ignition performance was attained. From the combustion test results, we obtained 99.6% combustion efficiency, 15% pattern factor, and 3% profile factor. The results in this work indicate that the ignition and combustion characteristics of a slinger combustor are markedly different from those of a conventional annular combustor.

A small high altitude test facility has been developed to investigate ignition performance of a small gas-turbine combustor under high altitude conditions. Supersonic diffusers and a heat exchanger were used to perform a low pressure and a low temperature condition, respectively. Experimental results showed that the low pressure environment could be controlled by upstream pressure of primary nozzle flow and low temperature environment by mixture ratio of cooled air and ambient air. Ignition performance tests were performed to verify the performance of the facility under simulated high altitude conditions. Conclusively, it was proven that the test facility could be used for ignition performance test of a small gas-turbine combustor under high altitude condition of approximately 6,100m.

In this paper, the test and result of flow and combustion for 21AFR lean fuel models are described. The necessity to develop the low emission combustor has been issued from the concern on the increase of green house and the destruction of ozone layer. To evaluate the flow and combustion performance of new designed 21AFR lean modules, the hydraulic tests in stereo lithographic airflows models, the low pressure combustion tests in three injectors model for weak extinction and ignition and the high pressure combustion tests in single sector for NOx, SAE and efficiency are performed. The low pressure tests reveal that the governing parameters in weak extinction and ignition at atmospheric condition are prefilmer length, swirl flow rotation direction, secondary swirl angle and flow split. As a results of combustion test at high pressure, the efficiency and smoke level are satisfied with performance targets, but EINOx of 17.8 is higher than target value of 13.1. The high pressure tests show that the main parameters influenced on NOx are primary swirl angle, swirl flow rotation direction, heatshield exit angle and liner mixing hole location.

The number of vehicles employing diesel engines is rapidly rising. Accompanying this trend, application of an after-treatment system is strictly required as a result of reinforced exhaust regulations. The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) system is considered as the most efficient method to reduce particulate matter (PM), but the improvement of a regeneration performance at any engine operation point presents a considerable challenge by itself. Temperature, gas compostion and flow rate of exhaust gas are important parameters in DPF evaluation, especially regeneration process. Engine dynamometer and degment tester are generally used in DPF evaluation so far. But these test method couldn't reveal the effect of various parameters on real DPF, such as O2 concentration, amount of soot and exhaust gas temperature. This research has studied the possibility using dump combustor that used to take an approach lean premixed combustion in gas turbine for a DPF power and optimized. It is possible that utilize the system as DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst) and SCR(Selective Catalytic Reduction) assessments test as well as DPF evaluation
