  • Pressurization system in a liquid-propellant launcher supplies the controlled gas into the ullage volume of propellant tanks to feed propellants to combustion chamber by pressurizing propellants stored in propellant tanks. The ullage part of propellant tank should be constantly pressurized to supply the propellants stored in propellant tanks to turbo-pump or combustion chamber by pressurant pressurization system. Pressurant used to pressurize propellants is generally stored in a series of tanks at cryogenic temperature and high preassure inside an oxidizer tank. The reason is to store the quantity of pressurant as much as possible and to make pressurant tanks as small as (i.e. as light as) possible. However for test convenience pressurant tank is located at STP (standard temperature and pressure) environment in this study. Orifices are widely adapted to several pressurization systems in liquid rocket propulsion systems. Discharge coefficients of orifices are essentially needed for the optimized design of pressurization system in liquid rocket propulsion system. For this study gaseous nitrogen was served as pressurant and rounded entry orifices were employed. The forty-two (42) rounded entry orifices (the radii of curvatures are 0.5 and 1.0) have been tested experimentally in the supersonic flow region. The discharge coefficients of rounded entry orifices with inside diameters ranging from about 1.4 to 5.0mm was measured with 0.95 ${\sim}$ 0.99.

  • Flow instability in the rocket turbo pump systems can be caused by various elements such as valve, orifice and venturi and etc. The formation of cavitation specially in the propellant feeding system can trigger the mass flow and pressure oscillation due to cyclic formation and depletion of cavitations. If the cryogenic propellant are used, which is very sensitive to temperature variation, the change of propellant properties due to thermodynamic effect should be accounted for in the flow analysis. This study focuses on the formation of cryogenic cavitation adopting MUSHY IDM model suggested by Shyy and coworkers. Also, the flow instability is investigated with developed numerical code in the downstream of orifice flow. To this end, three different orifices are selected and investigated by the numerical calculation.

  • Various bearings such as deep-groove ball bearings, angular-contact ball bearings, and roller bearings are used to support the load and to lubricate between the shaft and the housing. The bearings of potential rolling systems in a turbo pump are the deep-groove ball bearings as comparing with the bearings with rolling elements such as cylindrical rollers, tapered cylindrical rollers, and needle rollers. The deep-groove ball bearings consist of rolling elements, an inner raceway, an outer raceway and a retainer that maintain separation and help to lubricate the rolling element that is rotating in the raceways. In the case of water-lubricated ball bearings, however, fluid friction between the ball and raceways is affected by the entry direction of flow, rotation speed, and flow rate. In addition, this friction is the key factor affecting the bearing life cycles and reliability. In this paper, the characteristics of flow conditions corresponding to a deep-groove ball bearing are investigated numerically, with particular focus on the friction distribution on the rolling element, in order to extend the analysis to the area that experiences solid friction. A simple analysis model of fluid flow inside the water-lubricated ball bearing is analyzed with CFD, and the flow characteristics at high rotation speeds are presented.

  • Heteroepitaxial growth remains as one of the continuously growing interests, because the heterogeneous crystallization on different substrates is a common feature in the fabrication processes of many semiconductor materials and devices, such as molecular beam epitaxy, pulsed laser deposition, sputtering, chemical bath deposition, chemical vapor deposition, hydrothermal synthesis, vapor phase transport and so on [1,2]. By using the R.F. sputtering system, ZnO thin films were deposited on graphene 4 and 6 mono layers, which is grown on 400 nm and 600 nm $SiO_2$ substrates, respectively. The ZnO thin layer was deposited at various temperatures by using a ZnO target. In this experimental, the working power and pressure were $3{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr and 50 W, respectively. The base pressure of the chamber was kept at a pressure around $10^{-6}$ Torr by using a turbo molecular pump. The oxygen and argon gas flows were controlled around 5 and 10 sccm by using a mass flow controller system, respectively. The structural properties of the samples were analyzed by XRD measurement. The film surface and carrier concentration were analyzed by an atomic force microscope and Hall measurement system. The surface morphologies were observed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM).

  • The cryogenic fluid is the propellant for the liquid rocket engine. The design of space launcher vehicle is guided by minimum size and weight criteria, so the turbo pump solicits high impeller speed. Such high speed results in a zone of pressure drop below vapor pressure causing caivtation around inducer blades. The cryogenic fluid has different characters from isothermal fluid like water. The cryogenic fluid has very sensible thermodynamic properties and the phase change undergoes evaporative cooling. So, the developed code has to be modified cavitation modeling and it is added the energy equation for temperature sensitivity.

  • We are working on improving the performance by applying the three-dimensional design element to the rotor blades of high pressure supersonic impulse turbine that drives turbo pump of liquid rocket engine. In this paper, based on the shape of a rotor blade of a turbopump turbine designed in the past, a three-dimensional shape is applied to a rotor blade through a stacking line change such as sweep and dihedral. After performing the flow analysis, the changes in the turbine performance characteristics for each design element were carefully examined and the results were summarized.

  • A liquid rocket system consists of a combustion chamber, a gas generator, a turbo pump, and a turbine, etc. Each component is connected by supply components such as valves, pipes, and orifices. Since each component has a combined effect on engine performance, preliminary analysis for overall system must be required before the conceptual design stage. Comprehensive analysis program considered the supply system has not been developed yet. In this paper, a supply component model of the liquid rocket engine has been designed after verification of each component. The gas generator cycle with supply components has been composed. The results of the cycle has been compared to those of the F-1 engine with the representative gas generator cycle.
