    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To lighten a weight of the engine system, take driving force and specific impulse large, improve engine performance, and stably supply laser beam from a laser light source without being influenced by the weather, in a laser heat propulsive engine. SOLUTION: Pellet shaped ice or slush state water is used for fuel, laser beam 6 is supplied from the outside to fuel through condensing optical systems 7, 8 with a good efficiency, high energy is supplied, fuel is directly injected from a nozzle 5 in a plasma gas condition of a high temperature, and thereby, large thrust and high specific impulse are obtained. It is thus possible to stably supply high energy without being influenced by the weather by using high output repetitive pulse laser which is mounted in an aircraft flying above the equator as a light source of the laser beam.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enhance thermoelectric conversion characteristics by performing pressure deformation or extrusion plastic working of a fused or sintered thermoelectric semiconductor material while heating electrically. SOLUTION: A metal powder material 6 for one electrode of a thermoelectric conversion element, a sintered or fused mass of thermoelectric semiconductor material 5, and a metal powder material 6 for the other electrode are arranged sequentially on a punch 4 in the cavity 1 of a die 2. Punches 3, 4 are then pressed each other or one punch is pressed against the other thus compressing the powdery electrode material 6 and the semiconductor material 5. Under that state, a large current is fed between the conductive punches 3, 4 and hot working is performed. Alternatively, a punch 23 is pressed toward the outlet 24 of a die 22 to extrude the thermoelectric semiconductor material 5 while softening. In this regard, a large current is fed between the conductive punches 23, 22 to generate heat and the material is extruded by applying a pressure while controlling the working temperature.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To provide a high temperature combustion engine of which pressure loss for the flow of cooling medium is small, heat resisting performance is heightened, and the combustion chamber having cooling passages therein is provided. CONSTITUTION:A plurality of cooling passages extending in the axial direction of a combustion chamber are formed in an inner cylinder 1 forming the combustion chamber C of a rocket engine. Fuel to be burned in the rocket engine is introduced to the cooling passages from an inlet piping 8, through an inlet manifold 3. The fuel flowing in the cooling passages flows out from an outlet piping 9 through an outlet manifold 4, and led to the rocket engine combustion chamber from the inlet of an injection device 10. Triangular fins are extendingly arranged along the passages in the cooling passages. Bubbles generated on the heat transfer surface of the cooling passage quickly break away by arranging the fins, so as to restrain film boiling on the heat transfer surface.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To restrain oxidation of a panel-shaped test piece from its end face and to enable miniaturization of the test piece by fixing the panel-shaped test piece in the direction of flow, and extending the surface of the test piece in the longitudinal or cross direction. CONSTITUTION:In a test piece holder 2 a panel-shaped test piece 1 is installed between two holders 2 each shaped like an extended test piece 1, and the test piece 1 is fixed within the gas flow of a high temperature gas generator 3 and in the direction of the gas flow. Because the boundary layer of the high temperature gas flow first develops on the holders 2, then transfers itself into turbulent flow, and becomes a sufficiently developed turbulent flow boundary layer on the test piece 1, no great change in heat conduction due to the transition of the boundary layer occurs on the test piece 1 and the test piece 1 is uniformly heated. Since heat stagnation points exit only on the holders 2, the rate of uneven heating of the test piece 1 can be lowered. Also, the holders 2 prevent the end portion of the test piece 1 from being exposed at its face to the high temperature gas flow, thereby preventing oxidation of the test piece 1 from its end face.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To eliminate gravity segregation becoming trouble in the case of producing the tilting functional material by a melting method by constituting the surface of one side of only powdery material having large thermal conductivity and mixing the material excellent in heat resistance with the former so that the mixing ratio of the latter is gradually increased to ward the opposite side and melting this mixture in the gravity-free environment, cooling and solidifying it. CONSTITUTION:Powder such as CU and T1 large in thermal conductivity is utilized for a first material. Powder or fiber such as oxide, carbide and nitride excellent in heat resistance is utilized for a second material. For example, copper is regulated to powder of 1mum mean particle diameter and silicon oxide is regulated to powder of 0.1mum mean particle diameter. A volatile binder is mixed with the powdery raw material and this mixture is supplied to a quantitative mixer 2. This quantitative mixer is controlled by a computer 3 to continuously change the mixing ratio in the direction of board thickness. The this mixture is filled in a mold 4 and the binder is vaporized and removed. The mixture is pressurized by a press and transferred into a glass capsule. A plurality of molded raw materials obtained thereby are arranged into a cartridge by pinching ceramic wool between these molded raw materials while holding the mixture in the glass capsule. These are placed in a space craft and heated at 1200 deg.C for about one hour in the gravity-free environment of the space. Copper powder is melted and cooled to room temp.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To attain at least any of the lightening in weight, the improvement of the degree of the sintering and the improvement of the workability in a functionally gradient material by combining any of ceramics, metals or intermetallic compounds with intermetallic compounds. CONSTITUTION:At the time of manufacturing a functionally gradient material, e.g. of an MoSi2(C11b type intermetallic compounds)-TiAl(L10 type intermetallic compounds), one end in the axial direction in a cylindrical vessel is filled with Ti-Al and the other end is filled with a gradient compsn. in such a manner that the mixed powder of Mo and Si is arranged in the molar ratio of 1:2, which is thereafter subjected to precompacting by cold isostatic pressing to obtain a raw material green compact 1. This green compact 1 is inserted into a glass container (capsule) 2 so that the axial direction of the green compact 1 will be approximately vertical, which is thereafter vacuum-sealed into a hot isostatic pressing apparatus 3, and the raw material powder or the like in the capsule is brought into reaction with or is sintered under the condition of pressurizing.

The operation is repeatedly executed while gradually increasing the mixed rate of ceramic powder 21 and finally, the sintered layer having 100% ceramic is formed. By this method, the gradated functional material composed of the ceramic 11 at the first face and the metal 12 at the back face is easily obtd.
