Thermal and fluid flow characteristics in a fuel shut-off valve under operating conditions are studied numerically. The disk size of the valve has 15 mm diameters and maximum mass flow rate is 600 kg/h. The Analysis was performed in the commercial code, STAR-CCM+. This paper shows that results from the numerical analysis has a good agreement compared to experimental results.

A sunken ship often involves an oil spill. This paper was carried out to minimize environmental and cost damages stemming from oil spil of sunken shipl. Through the analysis of both the standards of the oil tank system and installation, we have identified potential oil spill sites and proposed a remedy of prevention. The result of study, the air pipes of the oil tank are a vulnerable point for oil spill. Also, the remote control devices of emergency shut-off valve have poor accessibility at abandon ship, making it difficult to shut off the emergency shut-off valve. Thus, we propose the addition of a remote quick closing valve in the air pipe and the building of a central control system.

CNG, which has recently been attracting attention as an alternative fuel in the transportation field to reduce emissions caused by global warming, is natural gas with abundant reserves and mainly composed of methane. Being in a gaseous state, natural gas requires the compression and liquefaction processes for transportation. Until now, general shut-off valves for liquid and gas piping have been developed in Korea, but there are few studies on shut-off valves for high pressures of about 200 bar. Currently, research on the flow analysis of valves is being actively conducted around the world. However, there are relatively many studies on large valves such as low-pressure valves or shipbuilding and marine, and the safety factor through structural analysis to check the structural integrity of the valve is checked at the design stage. Since it is necessary to have a fast response speed while minimizing pressure and speed loss due to flow change, basic research was conducted on the flow analysis of the valve to secure design data, and the numerical analysis was performed on high-pressure automatic shut-off valves applied to CNG refueling stations. After securing the basic valve shape through reverse engineering for advanced products, we compared the valve flow coefficient Cv coefficient with advanced products. As a result, it was found that the reverse engineering model was at the level of about 60%. However, we compared the Cv coefficient by modifying the reverse engineering model, and the result showed that it was improved to about 96%.

This paper is to introduce Hanwha Aerospace R&D Center's development status of TVC(Thrust Vector Control) system and control valves for Korean space launch vehicles. With the successful development of KSR-III TVC system, Hanwha have developed TVC system and RCS control valves for KSLV-I. Also, in the advance research area of KSLV-II, Hanwha have participated in LOx and fuel flow control valves and LOx shut-off valve development in the engine supply system. Based on the accumulated experiences and technologies in the aerospace key components and system development, Hanwha will make an important contribution to KSLV-II development in the future.
