The static characteristics of a five-pad tilting pad journal bearing of load on pad (LOP) type have been investigated experimentally under the different values of bearing load and shaft speed. The diameter and length of the bearing are 300.91 mrn and 149.8 mm, reslx;ctively. Circumferential distribution of the film pressure, film thickness, journal surface temperature and beating surface temperature are measured. A noticeable inlet pressure rise is observed at the entrance of each pad, especially the bottom pad. The inlet pressure is increased by the increase of shaft speed as well as bearing load. In the five-pad tilting pad joumal bearing of LOP type, almost all of beating load is being carried only by the bottom pad. The maximum bearing surface temperature is observed at near the minimum film thickness. It is observed that the metal temperature of the mid-plane is higher than that of the edge at the inlet region, while the metal temperature of the edge is higher than that of the mid-plane at the outlet region.

Supersonic ejectors are simple mechanical components, which generally perform mixing and/or recompression of two fluid streams. Ejectors have found many applications in engineering. In aerospace engineering, they are used for altitude testing of a propulsion system by reducing the pressure of a test chamber. It is composed of three major sections: a vacuum test chamber, a propulsive nozzle, and a supersonic exhaust diffuser. This paper aims at the improvement of ejector-diffuser performance by focusing attention on reducing exhaust back flow into the test chamber, since alteration of the backflow or recirculation pattern appears as one of the potential means of significantly improving low supersonic ejector-diffuser performance. The simplest backflow-reduction device was an orifice plate at the duct inlet, which would pass the jet and entrained fluid but impede the movement of fluid upstream along the wall. Results clearly showed that the performance of ejector-diffuser system was improved for certain a range of system pressure ratios, where as there was no appreciable transition in the performance for lower pressure ratios and the orifice plate was detrimental to the ejector performance for higher pressure ratios. It is found that an appropriately sized orifice system should produce considerable improvement in the ejector-diffuser performance in the intended range of pressure ratios.

Lack of the space in many diesel vehicles make it difficult to design and install the catalytic muffler to reduce emissions. For this reason, inlet part of the catalytic muffler is made of L-type which has lower flow uniformity than conventional I-type, and catalytic muffler has complex internal structure by various insertions, which affect the flow uniformity and pressure drop of the systems. In this work, the flow characteristics such as flow uniformity and pressure drop have been numerically investigated by changing such various geometries as inlet shape, porosity, and outlet shape inside the muffler with the three-dimensional turbulent incompressible flow solver. Total 4 different cases are considered in order to find optimal configurations of the catalytic muffler in view of high flow uniformity and low pressure drop. The results show that Case 2 which has no induction cone and outlet perforated pipe has higher uniformity index and lower pressure drop than others considered in this work.

This paper was studied on the cavitation instability of a Solution Pump Inducer in an absorption chiller-heater. Inlet pressure of LiBr and rotational speed at nominal mode are 2,800 Pa and 3,500 rpm respectively. Due to the marginal operation of available NPSH, the cavitation performance of the inducer is critical for the stable operation without the deterioration of head performance. In the study, cavitation performance and its mode of instability was investigated experimentally. Water was used as the working fluid and the test inducer was scaled up as 1.75 times for detail measurements and flow visualization. Inlet pressure was controlled by a vacuum pump. This research focused on types of cavitation instability and phenomena to investigate the possibility of harmful damage due to cavitation instability. Casing wall pressure and instantaneous inlet pressure was measured to observe the unsteady flow characteristics. Through the visualization and spectrum analysis of pressure, the occurrence region and intensity of asymmetric cavitation and cavitation surge are analyzed in the test inducer.

발사체 엔진 시동 및 정지시 발생하는 압력 섭동 및 압력 강하에 대한 검토를 수행하였다. 특히 PSD(Pogo Suppression Device)이 존재하는 경우 엔진 시동 혹은 정지시 이에 대한 영향을 검토하기 위해 연구를 수행하였다. 해석을 수행하기 위해 상용 1D 해석 프로그램인 Flowmaster를 사용하여 추진제 탱크 및 PSD, 엔진을 모델링하였다. 해석 결과 PSD가 설치되어 있어도 엔진 시동 및 정지시 터보펌프 입구에서의 압력 강하 및 상승에 변화가 없음을 확인하였다. 단, PSD의 본래 목적에 맞게 배관에서의 높은 주파수 대역의 압력 섭동을 낮추는 효과를 확인하였다.

압축천연가스(CNG) 압력용기는 D.D.I공정을 통해 실린더부를 제작한 후, 스피닝 공정을 통해 돔 부 성형이 이루어진다. 그러나 스피닝 공정의 입구 부 성형에 관한 연구는 미미하며, 현장 작업자들의 경험이나 시행착오에 의해 제작되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이론 임계좌굴하중 및 유한요소해석에서 축 방향 하중의 비교를 통하여 좌굴발생을 예측하였고, 상용 소프트웨어를 이용하여 돔부의 좌굴 방지를 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 또한, 입구 부 성형을 위하여 돔 부와 롤러가 맞닿는 점에서의 돔부의 반경에 따른 롤러 하중을 분석하고, 이를 토대로 입구 부 성형을 수행하였다.

The present study investigated two-phase flow distribution, phase separation and pressure drop in multi-microchannel tubes under adiabatic condition. The test section consisted of inlet and outlet headers with the inner diameter of 19.4㎜ and 15 parallel microchannel tubes. Each microchannel tube brazed to the inlet and outlet headers and had 8 rectangular ports with the hydraulic diameter of 1.32㎜. The key experimental parameters were orientation of header (horizontal and vertical), flow direction of refrigerant into the inlet header (in-line, parallel and cross flow) and inlet quality (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3). It was found that the orientation of the header had relatively large effect on the flow distribution and phase separation, while the inlet quality didn't affect much on them. The horizontal header showed the better flow distribution and phase separation characteristics than the vertical one. The parallel flow condition with the horizontal header showed the best performance for the flow distribution and phase separation characteristics under the test conditions. Two-phase pressure drops through the microchannel tubes with the horizontal header were higher than those of the microchennel tubes with the vertical header due to gravitational effect.

The main object of this study is to investigate the collection characteristics of multi-layer multi-stage porous plate system experimentally. The experiment is carried out to analyze the characteristics of pressure drop and collection efficiency for the present system with the experimental parameters such as inlet velocity, tube diameter, inlet concentration, and stage number, etc. In results, the pressure drop becomes 22 to $115mmH_2O$ with increment of stage number (1 to 5) of porous plate system at tube velocity 15 m/s and tube diameter ${\Phi}8$. In case of fly ash and 5 stage, the collection efficiency becomes 90.5 to 95.7% increasing the tube velocity 12 to 15 m/s at inlet concentration $3g/m^3$ and tube diameter ${\Phi}8$. Additionally, it is estimated that the collection efficiencies of 5 stage are 94.3, 95.6 and 99.1% for fly ash, steel dust and based power, respectively (${\Phi}8$ tube, $V_t$ = 12m/s, inlet concentration $3g/m^3$).

Turbine inlet temperature is steadily increasing to achieve high specific thrust and efficiency of gas turbine engines. Turbine cooling technology is essential to increase turbine inlet temperature. For this study, a small or medium sized aircraft engine of 10,000 lbf class with the turbine inlet temperature of $1,400^{\circ}C$, the engine overall pressure ratio of 32.2, and the bypass ratio of 5 was set as the baseline model and its performance analysis was performed at the design point. The engine has the performance of 10,013 lbf thrust and the specific fuel consumption of 0.362 lbm/hr/lbf. The thrust and the specific fuel consumption of the baseline model were compared with those of similar class engines. Based on these results, the turbine design requirements were assigned. In addition, the parametric analysis of the engine, related to aerodynamic and cooling design of the high pressure turbine, was performed. Based on the baseline model engine, the influence of turbine inlet temperature, cooling flow ratio, and high pressure turbine efficiency variations on the engine performance was analyzed.
