An experimental study on the micro-supersonic jet flow fields has been carried out. A sonic nozzle of 440 ${\mu}m$-exit diameter and a Laval nozzle of 800 ${\mu}m$ exit diameter with the nozzle exit Mach number 2.0 were fabricated by stretching a micro Pyrex glass tube for the present experiments. Schlieren flow visualization and Pitot pressure distribution of the jet flow field were obtained. Representative characteristics of the jet flow fields such as, supersonic length, jet core length, similarity of the velocity field, and jet spreading rates, have been observed. All the results were compared to previous observations of larger supersonic jets of higher Reynolds numbers, and it was found that overall characteristics of the micro supersonic jet are qualitatively similar as those of the higher Reynolds number jets, except the jet core length and the jet spreading rate.

De-Laval 노즐에서 경계층 배제두께의 음수현상에 대하여 수학적 모델을 통한 수치 고찰 한 결과 배제두께 뿐만 아니라 다음과 같은 경계층의 특성을 알 수 있었다. (1)온도비($T_w/T_0$)가 작아질수록 경계층 두께가 상대적으로 커진다. (2)운동량두께의 변화도 단열 벽면이 아닌 경우에는, 비압축성(${\rho}=const$) 유체 보다. 온도비가 작을수록 항상 커진다. (3) 경계층 배제두께는 온도비가 작은 경우 음(―)의 값을 나타내고 있어, 유효유동 단면적의 확대 현상을 보이고 있다.

The ablation characteristics of graphite nozzle throat insert is analyzed for the use in solid rocket propulsion system. The propulsion system is composed of three types of conventional nozzles, such as De-Laval type, blast tube type, and submerged type. Various kinds of propellants are used in the thirteen kinds of propulsion system that has different shapes of each other. Total thirty seven tests are performed. From the results of the analysis, it is found that the ablation rate is higher for the higher average chamber pressure and the higher concentration of oxidizing species in combustion gas.

The ablation characteristics of graphite nozzle throat insert was analyzed for the use in solid rocket propulsion system. The propulsion system was composed of three types of conventional nozzles, such as De-Laval type, blast tube type, and submerged type. Various kinds of propellants were used in ten kinds of propulsion system that had different shapes with each other. Total forty eight tests were performed. From the results of the analysis, it was found that the ablation rate was increased for the higher average chamber pressure and the higher oxidizer mole fraction. A useful correlation for nozzle throat ablation rate was developed in terms of the chamber pressure, oxidizer mole fraction, and throat size. The calculated ablation rates from the correlation showed agreement within ${\pm}0.10mm/s$ with the experimentally determined values.

노즐에서 분사되는 제트의 거동에 대해 전반적으로 고찰해보고, 실제 후판의 레이저 절단성 실험 을 통해 노즐의 영향 및 혼합가스의 절단면 질 향상효과 등을 살펴보았다. 간략히 요약하면 다음 과 같다. 아음속제트는 노즐압력을 증가함에 따라 절단압력도 증가하지만 노즐과 재료사이의 거 리를 가능한 작게 유지하여야 하는 제약이 있다. 따라서 사용중에 손상이 가기 쉽다. 이를 해결하 고자 초음속제트의 사용이 연구되고 있지만 shock의 형성으로 인해 노즐압과 절단압은 매우 비선 형적인 관계를 갖는다. 따라서 (i)고압에서도 MSD가 형성되지 않고 주기적인 압력 재상승이 나 타나도록 하거나, (ii)Laval노즐을 이용해 shock구조가 형성되지 않고 큰 절단거리를 얻도록 하는 방법이 제시되고 있다. 초음속노즐의 후판 절단 적용 가능성을 분석해 본 결과 유동 박리 현상으 로 인해 후판보다는 박판의 향상을 위해서는 적절한 조성의 혼합가스를 사용하는 것이 아주 효과 적이었으며, 보조 가수 제트를 채용해 slag제거를 효율적으로 수행 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A Compuressible turbulent boundary layer effect of the high temperature, accelerating gas flow through the De-Laval nozzle on combustion chamber pressure is numerically investigated. For this purpose, the coupled momentum integral equation and energy integral equation are solved by the Bartz method, and 1/7 power law for both the turbulent boundary layer velocity distribution and temperature distribution is assumed. As far as the boundary layer thicknesses are concerned, we can obtain reasonable solutions even if relatively simple approximations to the skin friction coefficient and stanton number have been used. The effects of nozzle wall cooling and/or mass flow rate on the boundary layer thicknesses and the combustion chamber pressure are studied. Specifically, negative displacement thickness is appeared as the ratio of the nozzle wall temperature to the stagnation temperature of the free stream decreases, and, consequently, it makes the combustion chamber pressure low.

Though rocket nozzle flow is very important to the rocket performance, the direct measurement is very difficult because of high temperature and high pressure gas flow. Then the experiment utilizing the hydraulic analogy has been developed for such a problem. Supersonic flows through an axisymmetric De Laval nozzle of solid rocket motor was simulated in a 2-D sluice-type water-table designed and manufactured utilizing hydraulic analogy. Methods to minimize or account for non-analogous effects in the hydraulic system must be reviewed for the quantitative application of the hydraulic analogy. In this application the water table is inclined slightly, so that gravity acceleration has a small component in the direction of motion, thus compensating for the effect of friction. Flow visualization leads to better understanding of the analogous system. Within the experimental errors, it is shown that the hydraulic analogy can be used as an effective tool for the study of two dimensional isentropic flows of gases in many fields.

In the present work, a numerical study is carried out to observe the characteristics of the flow and particle behaviors in a supersonic double Venturi abrasive blasting nozzle. Schlieren flow visualization and Pitot pressure at the nozzle downstream are also carried out, and those measurement results are compared to the numerical ones for code validation. Open and closed secondary holes on the double Venturi nozzle surface are tested for various nozzle pressures, and the results are compared with the ones observed for other similar supersonic Laval nozzles.

The cold spray process is an emerging technology that utilizes high velocity metallic particles for surface coating. Metallic powder particles are injected into a converging-diverging de Laval nozzle and accelerated to a high velocity by a supersonic gas flow. The cold spray process normally uses a circular nozzle that has a rather narrow spraying range. To overcome this fault, a slit nozzle was considered in this study. The slit nozzle is anticipated to reduce the coating process time because it has a wider coating width than the circular nozzle. However, the slit nozzle can reduce the coating efficiency because it does not allow as much gas and particle velocity as the circular nozzle. To improve the coating efficiency of a slit nozzle, the shape of the slit nozzle was modified. And the results of gas flow and particle behaviour according to the nozzlers shape were compared by the a numerical analysis. As a results, as Expansion Ratio(ER) of 7.5 was found to be the most optimal condition for enhancing the spraying efficiency when the ER was changed by the variation of nozzle neck and exit size.
