The blowdown oxidizer feeding system is effective in the respect of higher reliability by the small number of parts and the absence of additional pressurization tanks, but it also has the unfavorable disadvantage such as thrust variation during the operation. Thus, in order to understand the these performance characteristics inherent in the Hybrid Rocket Motor (HRM) with blowdown oxidizer feeding system, this study proposed the integrated mathematical model to describe physical phenomena in the following parts: the oxidizer tank, combustion chamber, fuel grain, nozzle and injector.

Effects of oxidizer inlet velocity on NO emission characteristics of 0.2MW oxy-fuel combustor have been experimentally investigated. The NO formation process in the oxy-fuel combustion is extremely sensitive even for the small fraction of nitrogen in oxidizer. By increasing the oxidizer velocity, flame length is reduced due to the enhanced turbulent mixing. The increased oxidizer velocity also results in the decreased flame temperature through the elevated entrainment rate of the recirculated product and the corresponding NO emission is drastically decreased. Experimental results clearly indicate that the entrained product gases play a crucial role to decrease the temperature at the flame zone and the post flame zone where the thermal NO is mainly formed.

Cryogenic helium gas is used as the pressurant for the oxidizer pressurization of DR(Damper Receiver) sphere in the PSD(Pogo Suppression Device) system and liquid oxygen is used as the oxidizer for the propellant in Korea Space Launch Vehicle-II. The helium gas is stored in pressurant cylinders inside the cryogenic liquid oxygen tank and liquid oxygen is stored in the oxidizer tank. In this study, the performance test of PSD liquid oxygen drain valve for KSLV-II was considered.

The aim of this work is to identify application of ultra low NOx and CO combustor. To achieve this, we developed the premixed oxidizer-staging combustor using a cyclone flow. Various factors such as equivalence ratio for the combustion condition and swirl type for secondary air injection have been tested experimentally for flame stability and NOx, CO emission characteristics. Before to do this, we had been tested cyclone premixed combustor in advance. it is similar to first combustor of premixed oxidizer-staging combustor. As a result, cyclone premixed flame shows the very high flame stability and low NOx emission. however, it can be identified that there were some problems such as a little high CO emission and thermal resistance of combustor wall. Cyclone premixed oxidizer-staging combustor can resolve those of problems. In our combustor, we can found out optimal condition that the secondary air injection method is swirl type, swirl direction is co-swirl and equivalence ratio of first combustor is 1.3. Quantitatively, we can achieve 10.8 ppm for NOx and 30.2 ppm for CO emissions respectively. Form this result, we can identified that cyclone premixed oxidizer-staging combustor can apply to ultra low NOx and CO combustor.

During feeding oxidizer to the engine, vortices are occurred at lower dome of oxidizer tank inside by various working environments and external forces for liquid propellant feeding system of space launch vehicle. To eliminate the vortices or swirls Anti-Vortex Devices(AVD) shall be installed at inside lower oxidizer tank. Using the numerical analysis, we have confirmed the performance of AVD and analyzed the mass flow rate by feeding time and magnitudes of swirls on the free surface of oxidizer or exit surface according to the AVD number and length. Then we could derive the optimal design of the AVD number and length.

The spray characteristics of the oxidizer-rich preburner are investigated. From the PDPA measurement, droplet SMD of $210{\mu}m$ and droplet axial velocity of 38 m/s are measured at 100 mm distance from the nozzle tip on the fuel pressure of $25kgf/cm^2$ and oxidizer pressure of $10kgf/cm^2$. The droplet velocity is decreased with the axial distance and the oxidizer spray makes dominant effect on the combined spray characteristics of the oxidizer-rich preburner injector.

As the integrated circuit device shrinks to the smaller dimension, the chemical mechanical polishing(CMP) process was required for the global planarization of inter-metal dielectric(IMD) layer with free-defect. However, as the IMD layer gets thinner, micro-scratches are becoming as major defects. Chemical-Mechanical polishing(CMP) of conductors is a key process in Damascene patterning of advanced interconnect structure. The effect of alternative commercial slurries pads, and post-CMP cleaning alternatives are discuss, with removal rate, scratch dentisty, surface roughness, dishing, erosion and particulate density used as performance metrics. Electroplated copper deposition is a mature process from a historical point of view, but a very young process from a CMP perspective. While copper electro deposition has been used and studied for decades, its application to Cu damascene wafer processing is only now gaining complete acceptance in the semiconductor industry. The polishing mechanism of Cu-CMP process has been reported as the repeated process of passive layer formation by oxidizer and abrasion action by slurry abrasives. however it is important to understand the effect of oxidizer on copper passivation layer in order to obtain higher removal rate and non-uniformity during Cu-CMP process. In this paper, we investigated the effects of oxidizer on Cu-CMP process regarding the additional volume of oxidizer.

This paper presents the design and cold flow test results of oxidizer-rich preburner injectors for a 9 tonf-class staged combustion engine cycle. Three types of coaxial swirl injectors were designed, and 12 injectors were designed for each type. The diameters of the fuel tangential holes are identical. The diameters of the oxidizer tangential holes were varied to investigate the influence of combustion in the oxidizer-rich preburner according to the momentum ratio of the gas oxidizer generated from combustion in the injector chamber and liquid oxidizer through the cooling channel. It will be verified through a powerpack and combustion test using an oxidizer-rich preburner. In the cold flow test, the fuel flow rate and oxidizer tangential hole flow rate reached the target value based on the designed differential pressure.

It is an essential subject to decrease the mass of a launch vehicle for improving performance and efficiency of space launch system. Particularly, reducing the engine supporting area is necessary for high efficiency of propulsion system with clustered engine systems. The engine supporting area is related to the branch location of the oxidizer feeding line. This article deals the performance variation of the propulsion system such as the mass of the oxidizer feeding line, pressurization pressure of the oxidizer tank, and the onset of nucleation boiling in the oxidizer pipe with the branch location of the main feeding line.
