Thermal mass flow meter (TMF) is used measuring the small mass flow rate of gases. Generally, flow rate measuring accuracy of TMF is $\pm2{\%}$ of full scale. TMF is manufactured for specified working pressure and specified working gas by customer. If it were applied for different working pressure and gases, flow rate measurement accuracy decreased dramatically. In this study, a TMF tested with three different gases and pressure range of 0.2 MPa to 1.0 MPa. Effect of specific heat cause to increase flow measurement error as much as ratio of specific heat compare with reference gas. Pressure change cause to increase flowrate measurement deviation about $-0.2{\%}$ as the working pressure decreased 0.1 MPa.

In this paper, the heat transfer phenomena in the sensor tube of a mass flow controller(MFC) were studied by experiments. In the sensor tube of MFC, the difference of temperature between inlet and outlet was necessary for calculating the mass flow rate. Therefore, the relations of flow rate, generated heat by heating wire, sensor location and tube thickness were investigated to find the optimized condition. Based on this study, static and dynamic characteristics of sensor can be used for mass flow controller.

Reynolds equation, which describes behavior of fluid film in journal bearings, basically satisfies mass conservation. But, boundary conditions usually used with this equation, e.g. half Sommerfeld or Reynolds boundary conditions, cannot fulfill this natural law of conservation. In the case of connecting rod bearing, where applied load is dynamic and its magnitude is relatively large, such unrealistic boundary conditions have serious influence on calculation results, especially on lubricant flow rate or power disspation which are important parameters in thermal analysis. In this paper, mass-conserving boundary condition was applied in the finite element analysis of connecting rod bearings. Lubricant flow rate and power dissipation rate were calculated together with journal center locus, minimum film thickness and maxmium film pressure. These computation results were compared with those of the case of Reynolds boundary condition. Balance between inlet and outlet flow rate was well achieved in the case of mass-conserving boundary condition.

본 연구에서는 케로신/과산화수소 점화용 분사기의 설계/제작하여 분무특성에 관한 연구를 수행하고자 하였으며, 이에 앞서 촉매점화방식으로 적용할 때 가장 적합한 분사기를 설계하고자 하였다. 설계/제작된 분사기를 수류시험을 통해 질량 유량 및 분산각을 측정하였다. 그 결과 케로신의 목표 질량유량(12.88 g/s)은 설계 차압과 같은 차압인 3 bar에서 측정되었으며, 이 때 분산각은 $40^{\circ}$을 확인하였다. 또한 과산화수소의 목표 질량 유량(94.39 g/s)은 설계 차압(3 bar) 보다 작은 1 bar에서 측정됨을 확인하였다.

Analysis of two-dimensional flow in an involute gear pump has been done by using FLUENT. Analysis extended to the turbulent flow includes the mass flow rate with functions of pressure difference between inlet and outlet, rotational velocities of involute gear, and clearances between tip of gear and housing. In general mass flow rate decreases with decreasing rotational velocity, and with increasing clearance and pressure difference. The flow rate efficiency of gear pump, which is defined with the theoretical flow rate, has been presented in terms of the above parameters.

Experimental results for performance characteristics of small $NH_3$ absorption chiller/ heater are presented. The apparatus consists of 7RT water-cooled absorption system, solution pump, boiler, cooling tower and peripheral devices. The effect of experimental parameters, such as refrigerant mass flow rate, solution mass flow rate and cooling water temperature have been investigated in view of the system performance. The capacity of each heat exchanger increased as refrigerant mass flow rate increased in cooling mode. Also, a cooling capacity increased as a strong solution mass flow rate increased. The cooling and heating COP show 0.5, 1.5 regardless of refrigerant mass flow rate, respectively. The results focus on the evaluation for performance characteristics of system with respect to variation of refrigerant mass flow rate under standard design conditions.

가스터빈에서 연료 분무 노즐은 연소 특성에 영향을 미치는 중요한 부품이다. 스월 분무 장치를 설계하기 위하여 유량과 분무액적 평균 직경을 설계변수로 정하고 연료 분무 노즐의 최적화를 수행하였다. 설계변수는 이중 노즐의 실험값들을 비교하여 중요한 영향을 미치는 변수로 선정하였다. 민감도는 유량과 분무액적 평균 직경의 변화에 따른 값을 사용하였다. 이중 오리피스형 스월 분무장치의 형상 최적설계를 통하여 유량의 미립화를 높이도록 연구하였다. 최적설계를 위하여 실험 계획법을 이용하였으며, 영향을 적게 미치는 설계변수들은 설계대상에서 제외하였다. 분무 노즐의 분무액적 평균 직경을 사용한 결과는 Jasuja의 액적 평균 이론을 이용하여 도출된 결과와 유사함을 알 수 있었다. 연구 결과는 이중 오리피스형스월 분무장치와 이와 비슷한 종류의 노즐 최적화를 위한 특성을 파악하고 최적의 유량과 허용 공차를 제시하였다.

Flowmeter and oxygen sensors are listed in COVID-19 essential medical devices. This article reports a Teensy microcontroller-based Oxygen mass flow controller (MFC), core part of the oxygen respirator or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The developed MFC consisting of the microcontroller, MEMS flow sensor, and solenoid valve was able to accurately control 0 to 100 sccm of oxygen flow rate. The pressure of vacuum chamber increased proportionally to the flow rate (0.998 of Pearson correlation coefficient). The experimental results proved that the developed MFC exhibits comparable performance to a commercial MFC in accuracy, settling time, linearity with pressure, and repeatability of oxygen mass flow control. It is expected that this simple and cheap MFC is utilized for oxygen therapy against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.

Two stage startup of high thrust liquid rocket engine can reduce the abrupt impulse to the vehicle and engine by changing oxidizer flow rate to the combustion chamber. Also it ensures stable ignition of combustion chamber against hard start and to prevent pump stall by the sudden supply of large mass flow rate. However high discharge pressure of oxidizer pump or temperature rise in gas generator may be a problem in applying the preliminary stage. To solve this problem, we analyzed the effect of the slope of oxidizer pump's head curve and the oxidizer mass flow rate to combustion chamber during preliminary stage using the rocket engine startup analysis code. A moderate slope(${\circleddash}{\sim}$-3) of head curve and 80% mass flow rate during preliminary stage can reduce the oxidizer pump discharge pressure by 15 to 20% comparing with the condition of ${\circleddash}$=-4.37 head curve and 70% mass flow rate. Also it can maintain the turbine inlet temperature rise within 50K from the nominal value.
