In this paper, we make a study of a thermal deformation by FEM and test to define the deformation mode of the Vacuum-Cleaner's Nozzle-Cover. In FEM analysis, 3 different conditions were considered separately, such as (1) Compressive force by Belt tension, (2) Friction heat between Belt and Shaft and (3) Compressive force combined with heat. Throughout FEM analysis it was found that the deformation was caused by heat and it was proved through a simulation test with a real product.

In this study, the performance experiment was conducted to compare the permeate flux of hollow fiber Vacuum Membrane Distillation module according to leak problem between module housing and membrane bundle. For the permeate flux performance experiment of the two Vacuum Membrane Distillation modules, the Lab-scale experimental equipment was built in the capacity of $1m^3/day$. The performance test of the two Vacuum Membrane Distillation modules were analyzed according to the feed water conditions. As a result, it was analyzed that the leak VMD module decreased about 14% of permeate flux than normal VMD module.

ETRI has developed the EQM (Engineering Qualification model) payload system for the communications and broadcasting satellite (CBS) with Korean local companies. This paper describes a series of environmental tests such as vibration, thermal/thermal vacuum, and EMC tests. All the development processes including the design, implementation, integration and workmanship were verified and evaluated by these tests. The results of the functional tests and the compliance to the requirements are also presented. The technologies and heritage obtained from this development will be applied to the development of the payload system for the Korean communication satellite in the near future.

All of the satellite components must be operated within the permissible temperature range during the mission in orbit. Therefore, thermal design is performed to develop verified thermal model and to secure thermal stability on the ground. In this study, thermal model correlation was performed to satisfy the criteria of correlation using ground thermal vacuum/thermal balance test results of LEO satellite optical payload. We also secured verified thermal model by controlling operating cycle of flight heaters. In addition, it was confirmed that all components are within the permissible temperature range through conducting orbit environment thermal analysis. We also secured thermal stability of the satellite.

EQM Model Digital transponder applying the Korean's own designing and manufacturing technology has gone through a series of trials and errors during the development. In particular, lack of thermal designs expedience for the vacuum causes variety of errors in designing, assembling transponder and setting up the test at the first thermal vacuum test (TVAC). Since the first TVAC test could not accomplished its aims successfully, so the second TVAC should be performed as make up test with revised Digital transponder. In this paper, the defects that identified in the first TVAC are analyzed and applied solutions and its results at the second TVAC are presented. Using the lessons from the first and second TVAC, we will be able to make more reliable digital transponders in the next phase of project. In addition it also be useful as a reference when we design another satellite payloads.

In order to verify the operability of a GPS receiver which is one of the KSLV-I onboard electrical equipments under the vacuum conditions, this paper describes the operation methods and performance results of the GPS receiver under the thermal-vacuum and vacuum environments. The damages and degradations of electrical parts of the GPS receiver caused by the pressure change and high-degree vacuum conditions are analyzed in terms of tracking and navigation capabilities through the signal-to-noise ratio and navigation error.

Conductive and radiative thermal model configurations of an imager of a geostationary satellite are presented. A two-plane method is introduced for three dimensional conductive coupling which is not able to be treated by thin shell plate thermal modeling technique. Especially the two-plane method is applied to massive matters and PIP(Payload Interface Plate) in the imager model. Some massive matters in the thermal model are modified by adequate correction factors or equivalent thickness in order to obtain the numerical results of thermal modeling to be consistent with the analytic model. More detailed nodal breakdown is specially employed to the object which has the rapid temperature gradient expected by a rule of thumb. This detailed thermal model of the imager is supposed to be used for detailed analyses and test predictions, and be correlated with the thermal vacuum test results before final in-flight predictions.

This paper is to investigate a defect for thermal barrier coating layers by acoustic emission method in 4-point bending test. The two-layer thermal barrier coating is composed of $150\mu{m}\;CoNiCrAlY\;bond\;coating\;by\;vacuum\;plasma\;spray(VPS)\;process\;and\;250\mu{m}\;ZrO_2-8wt%Y_2O_3$ ceramic coating layer by air plasma spray(APS) process on Inconel-718. The specimen prepared by cyclic thermal test(500, 1000, 2000cycle) at $1050^{\circ}C$ The AE monitoring system is composed of PICO type sensor, a wide band pre-amplifier(40dB), PC and AE DSP(16/32 PAC) board. The AE event, amplitude, Cumulative energy and count of coating specimens is evaluated according to cyclic thermal test.

During the safety inspection of nitrocellulose-made explosive containers stored for more than 10 years, cracks were found in the containers. Therefore, a failure cause analysis test was performed. First, the cause of failure through the failure tree analysis was conducted to select the factors that influenced failure. The changes in the properties of the container caused by the acceleration of the reaction were found to be the cause of the failure by confirming the influence on the environment and internal/external factors that may occur during storage. To confirm this, environmental tests, such as thermal shock test and vacuum thermal stability test, were performed using a naturally aged container to analyze the cause of failure, and an accelerated aging test was performed to reproduce the failure. Through this, the chemical reaction was accelerated by heat and charge, as in the result of the fault tree analysis, and it was confirmed that the physical properties of the container were changed. In addition, the service life of the container was estimated using the Arrhenius model for the storage life due to thermal aging.

Unlike large satellites, small satellites, such as nanosatellite and microsatellite, can provide a limited interior space for components mounting. In order to mitigate this issue, the compact Bus Electronic Unit(BEU) that integrates satellite electronic modules, combining most of bus subsystems and payload electronic modules into one unit, has been developed for HAUSAT-2 nanosatellite. This paper addresses the design and environmental test result analyses of BEU. The vibration and thermal vacuum tests were conducted at qualification level for the verification of design margin of newly developed BEU. The performance of individual electronic subsystem modules has been verified through performance tests before and after the qualification tests. It was confirmed that the natural frequency of BEU satisfies the design stiffness requirement without structural damage in the vibration test. Thermal analysis results were also almost consistent with test results through modified thermal analysis modeling.
